I was checking my email tonight and my Yahoo News popped up this News Flash: Of President Obama over turning funding for world wide abortion help. I don't normally share my political feelings, nor do I usually really know where I stand.
But something truly struck home here with me. And you may or may not agree with me, but I just find it rather interesting that with the state of our nation right now, we are willing to spend more money else where, when we have needs here in our own country.
I am ALL for helping others out, I really am. And we have as a nation stood to help people. But is it wrong of me to think that right now with the state of our nation maybe we should be focused more on helping our own, than worrying about killing un born babies world wide? Jobs are being lost left and right, companies shutting down, families losing their homes! And we are spending money on paying for abortions?
I hope that didn't come across too harsh. And I know that this subject is very controversial but man, I am all for pro choice, in that you have several choices to make before going down the path of aborting. And support birth control education. And some may argue that there are situations where women don't have a choice, and I am not even going to claim I can imagine those, but I just don't understand it, how for someone to see that little kidney bean shaped heart beating child, and be so excited and yet for others to not consider it even a child?
I just think it is a sad state of affairs when we think it is ok, and we as a nation fund, the killing of our un born.

This is the problem with Obama. The majority of Americans were hoodwinked into voting for Obama for his great promises of change and reform in America, appealling to the greedy Americans that want everything handed to them on a silver platter. I am certain that this first executive order is only the beginning of a vast number of changes that we will face that will continue to move Americans into Moral Decay. What moral price are Americans willing to pay to maintain their gilded lifestlye?
I do not talk politics, but I do know that abortion is wrong...for any reason. I am saddened that our new president doesn't hold the same beliefs on that issue.
This is so very sad. I believe abortion is wrong. I, too, wonder why we are spending money to pay for abortions--too many other problems.
I totally agree that is a waste of the American money period. I am completely pro life and even know someone who was raped and became pregnant and she is KEEPING that baby who had no choice to be conceive, those she didn't either but we know that God was in control of that whole situation and the statics on rape leading to pregnancy are so slim because of the focus used during the sex that this was such a small chance of happening. So God must really have wanted this baby to be here on this earth. She hasn't even had the baby yet but what a huge testimony. She is a strong women to survive and attack and then carry that person's baby. I get scared if he hasn't even been in office for a week and this is what he is starting out doing. Heaven helps us all. Just my opinion.
Be afraid, be very afraid. This is just the first of many. Shudder.
I didn't vote for the man. I do not like his views or policies. I I 100% agree with you, OUR money should be used to help OUR citizens. My husband lost his job, as a result we were unable to afford rent at our house so we lost our house, we are living with family. Its tough, my parents have had to take on 4 additional people, 2 being children which they haven't had to live with for quite some time now. The funny thing is that lots of people perdicted that his administration would not be what he promised. It's only been not even a week since he has taken oath and already things like this are happening. Like Tonya said, be afraid.
Can I touch on one other subject that really irks me about our new president. I don't mean to take over the post but the man is HALF black and HALF white. HALF, so why are people still calling him the first African American President? Technically, he isn't, technically he is the first MIXED president. Sorry I have been wanting to get that out for some time now
I am all for pro-life and HATE abortion. I too am saddened by the advocating of abortion. So, against my values and beliefs. I signed the FOCA petition!
As a Christian, I could not vote for Obama! It saddens me that more babies will die because of our President!!! I know that God has a perfect plan, so I will not even try to understand...just have faith!
His stance on abortion was the main reason I didn't vote for Obama.
Of course I didn't really like McCain either, so I didn't vote. Yes I am horrible. I'm coming to terms with it.
I totally agree with you!!! Why is he helping kill babies and ignoring his own country? ... actually, I'd almost rather he ignored his own country cause then he wouldn't screw it up.... but anyway yeah, that upsets me too.
As you know I was very vocal against him and I am very afraid of what he and a entire democratic congress is going to do to our country. I just think it is sooooo important for all of us to stand up for what we believe and be strong in our faith.
I wholeheartedly agree with you and all of the posters who posted before me! I am scared to death of sooooo many things now that this man is president.
I completely agree with you.
I agree with you and the other commenters, particularly Anonymous.
I am fine with paying taxes, but I can't stand the thought that my tax dollars will be paying for something so abominable and contrary to everything I hold dear.
Abortion is NOT "family planning."
