According to CNN, President Obama did sign the order on Friday that struck down a rule that prohibits U.S. money from funding international family-planning clinics that promote abortion or provide counseling or referrals about abortion services.
In signing the President said, "It is time we end the politicization of this issue." Since when is fulfilling campaign promises to your pro-abort supporters, “de-politicizing” an issue?
Properly understood, “politics” is more than cynical scheming. It is ethics enacted in the public sector. Laws permitting and funding abortion should never be “de-politicized.” Obama's claim is nothing more than the restoration of an ethic of death. "All those who hate me love death," says God's Wisdom.
What’s more, Obama promised, "In the coming weeks, my administration will initiate a fresh conversation on family planning, working to find areas of common ground to best meet the needs of women and families at home and around the world." Do you imagine that pro-life voices will be invited to become part of this “fresh conversation?” Not likely.
It seems mad to think that our country is sending money to to kill the citizens of other countries. If I were living in that country and found out, I would consider that an act of war.
