Pro-Abortion

Often times when I start my morning reading the news, I get queasy. So much is being thrown at me from National to World to Local news that it can easily seem overwhelming. So this morning I had my breakfast before I searched the headlines.
Now I'm wishing I hadn't. After reading one particular article I feel like blowing chunks:

"A South Carolina Roman Catholic priest has told his parishioners that they should refrain from receiving Holy Communion if they voted for Barack Obama because the Democratic president-elect supports abortion, and supporting him "constitutes material cooperation with intrinsic evil."

The Rev. Jay Scott Newman said in a letter distributed Sunday to parishioners at St. Mary's Catholic Church in Greenville that they are putting their souls at risk if they take Holy Communion before doing penance for their vote.

"Our nation has chosen for its chief executive the most radical pro-abortion politician ever to serve in the United States Senate or to run for president." (msnbc)

"Obama is Pro-Abortion"???? Yes, his goal is to convince people to have them. That's right. He stands outside abortion clinics trying to get people to go in. He organizes rallies with signs that read: "Do You Really Want a Baby? Why Not Kill It Instead?"

Man. I didn't expect Conservative America to actually pay attention to what he had to say because it was pretty obvious that they already had their minds made up. (Or maybe they'd already been told by their priests that their souls would be in jeopardy if they voted for Obama so they didn't even watch the debates.) But I think it's important to point out a portion of the debate between Obama and McCain in October.

McCain: "...Then there was another bill before the Senate Judiciary Committee in the state of Illinois not that long ago, where he voted against a ban on partial-birth abortion, one of the late-term abortion, a really -- one of the bad procedures, a terrible. And then, on the floor of the Illinois State Senate, he voted present.

I don't know how you vote "present" on some of that. I don't know how you align yourself with the extreme aspect of the pro- abortion movement in America."

Obama: "If it sounds incredible that I would vote to withhold lifesaving treatment from an infant, that's because it's not true. The -- here are the facts...nobody's pro-abortion. I think it's always a tragic situation." (cnn)
