"Also, please remember that President Obama is not pro-abortion . . ."

Read this letter from a proud Notre Dame mother:
My daughter is a senior at Notre Dame University, and I am embarrassed by the opposition to President Obama's speech and honorary degree. I consider him the most "pro-life" president of my lifetime. His domestic and foreign policy agenda and his outreach to all reasonable people in the world are more than inspiring. I suggest that my fellow Catholics remember that fewer abortions were performed during the Clinton years than during the Bush years. Also, please remember that President Obama is not pro-abortion. He is against the government telling a woman what she must do with her own body and future. I would think my anti-government friends would be against this as well. And why is it that Republicans would be the first to scream if their taxes were raised to support unwanted babies? Catholics are supposed to respect life. Show some respect for your president, who is currently trying to save the world from disaster in so many areas.
Mom is Joan Bradley of Pennsylvania.

I simply cannot comment . . .

One Catholic I know who voted for him, says that "obama couldn't be pro-abortion, cause he has two little girls." What! These people just make no sense at all--they are not looking at the facts that he is encouraging and making it more possible for the killings to continue--Obama IS pro-abortion.

it is embarrassing to see how hostile people are to President Obama. My Mom, a mother of 9, who helped the mentally ill, loved Obama! http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PQppEXGoSOk

FM,

One does not equal the other, so your analogy is incorrect.

As to your comment regarding hostility towards Obama, the hostility is well placed when we see a neophyte in office who seems to think he is on a perpetual campaign versus governing, supports abortion, an ever intrusive government, higher taxation...I could go on, but you get the picture...
