2009 Pro-Abortion Acts

In addition to surrounding himself with radical advocates for abortion, Barack Obama, who proved his abortion agenda in Illinois by refusing to protect even those babies who survive an abortion attempt, has continued to carry his agenda to the whole country as president.

During his brief time in the highest office in the country, Obama has worked hard to further entrench the culture of death in the United States and throughout the world.

January 5- Obama selects pro-abortion “Catholic” Virginia Governor Tim Kaine to be the chairman of the Democratic Party.

January 6- Obama appoints Thomas Perrelli as an associate attorney general. Perrelli spearheaded the effort to have Terri Schiavo killed by starvation and dehydration.

January 22- Releases statement supporting Roe v. Wade. He said:
On the 36th anniversary of Roe v. Wade, we are reminded that this decision not only protects women's health and reproductive freedom, but stands for a broader principle: that government should not intrude on our most private family matters. I remain committed to protecting a woman's right to choose.

January 23- Overturns the Mexico City Policy. This reversal makes available hundreds of millions of dollars to fund abortion in other countries.

January 26- Obama’s Deputy Secretary of State, James B. Steinberg, tells members of the Senate that the Mexico City Policy “is an unnecessary restriction that, if applied to organizations based in this country, would be an unconstitutional limitation on free speech.”

January 29- President Obama appoints pro-abortion David Ogden as deputy attorney general. Ogden represented Playboy and Penthouse, fought against requiring filters on library computers and successfully defended the right of pornographers to produce material with underage children.

February 12- Obama picks pro-abortion Elena Kagan to be solicitor general. She was the legal director of the National Abortion and Reproductive Rights Action League.

February 27- Begins working on overturning pro-life conscience protections intended to protect medical staff from being forced to commit abortions.

February 28- Friend of late-term abortionist George Tiller,Kathleen Sebelius, is nominated for the position of secretary of the Department of Health and Human Services.

March 5- Pro-life groups are not admitted to a White House-sponsored health-care summit while Planned Parenthood, The Human Rights Campaign, National Council of La Raza, The Children’s Defense Fund, The National Gay and Lesbian Task Force are in attendance.

March 9- Obama signs executive order, “REMOVING BARRIERS TO RESPONSIBLE SCIENTIFIC RESEARCH INVOLVING HUMAN STEM CELLS,” now forcing taxpayers to fund human embryonic stem cell research.

March 10- Obama creates the new “Ambassador-at-Large for Global Women’s Issues” position and names pro-abortion Melanne Verveer to the post.

March 11- Obama creates a new agency called the White House Council on Women and Girls. Obama appoints Tina Tchen, a former vice-president of NOW, as the agency’s director.

March 17- Obama nominates pro-abortion federal judge David Hamilton to serve on the Court of Appeals for the Seventh Circuit.

March 26 – Obama’s Dept. of State announces $50 million for the UNFPA, the UN agency known to be complicit in China's coercive population control tactics.

April 7 - Obama nominates three Vatican ambassador nominees, all believe in abortion.

April 7 - Obama selects pro-abortion law professor Harold Hongju Koh to be the State Department’s top lawyer.

April 7 - The White House Faith-Based Advisory Council is completed. The list includes more abortion advocates.

April 8 - Obama nominates pro-abortion Ron Weich for assistant attorney general for legislative affairs.

April 14 - Obama administration releases document claiming that pro-lifers may engage in violent acts.

April 17 - Obama administration releases the proposed guidelines for human embryonic stem cell research.

April 23 - Secretary of the State Hillary Clinton admits before the House Foreign Relations Committee that as far as the new government is concerned, the term "reproductive health" includes abortion. "We are now an administration that will protect the rights of women, including their rights to reproductive health care."

May 8 – Obama’s new budget allows the Legal Services Corporation to conduct litigation involving abortion.

This list of appointments and actions regarding abortion is certainly not exhaustive, but it clearly illustrates that Barack Obama has every intention of securing birth control and abortion as protected acts in this country. While he may say that he wishes to “reduce the number of abortions” or the “need” for abortions in this country, and even though he claims that abortion is not a “priority” for him, his words bear the worth of their weight … which is nothing. President Obama has surrounded himself with pro-abortion radicals, has created new offices and agencies devoted to so-called “reproductive health,” which Secretary of State Clinton tells us includes abortion, and has done everything within his power to give more money to those organizations devoted to killing preborn children.

One would expect that the editor-in-chief of the Vatican newspaper would be better informed than to make such a blunder as claiming that Barack Obama is not a “pro-abortion president.”

In addition to surrounding himself with radical advocates for abortion, Barack Obama, who proved his abortion agenda in Illinois by refusing to protect even those babies who survive an abortion attempt, has continued to carry his agenda to the whole country as president.

During his brief time in the highest office in the country, Obama has worked hard to further entrench the culture of death in the United States and throughout the world.

Letter to Senator Corker

Dear Senator Corker,

For my reasons listed below, written before & after the election, please do not vote to confirm Sonia Sotomayor to the Supreme Court.

Also, before the election, Senator Obama's voting record on the Right to Life website was 0 for the pro-life bills that were voted on in the Senate. Since the election, he has appointed 21 pro-abortion individuals to key government posts. Please see accompanying documentation by Michael Hichborn, proving that President Obama is a hard-core pro-abortionist and would only appoint a pro-abortionist like Ms. Sotomajor like himself to the Supreme Court.

If 54% of the W-M2's (Well Meaning but Wholly Minded Individuals)of my Catholic Faith, according to the polls, had not voted for President Obama, and McCain had won the election, then McCain would have had the opportunity to nominate another Alito or Roberts, which he promised to do so before the election and this would have given the pro-life cause the opportunity to overthrow the Roe Vs Wade 5-4 abortion on demand decision, which would have temporarily stopped the killing of 4,000 children per day (50 million since 1973). The abortion battle probably would have continued but on a state-by-state basis, but at least the demonic stranglehold over the killing of children would have been ended by the Supreme Court.

Senator Corker, I want to thank you for voting 100% on the pro-life bills listed on the Right To Life website. Please vote your conscience once again, and vote “NO” on the nomination of Sonia Sotomayor.

Finally, Fr. Corapi shows us how we can WIN this battle, in his ending comments at the end of this memo.

You & your family & staff remain in our prayers.

Sincerely,
Ann & Dean Richards

Fr. Corapi Summarizes Our Victory

As we prepare to enter a new era in politics and perhaps society in general, keep something in mind: WE WIN! No matter what political party is in power at a given point in time, in the end those that remain faithful to Jesus Christ win the war. We may have to fight many battles outnumbered and even despised and looked upon as criminals and outcasts by a society that is unraveling and degenerating into something no one could have imagined. What matters is that we run the race to the finish line and fight the good fight. Don’t “go with the flow”, for as the great Archbishop Fulton Sheen reminds us, “Dead bodies float downstream.” More than ever we shall have to be strong in the faith. Regular and worthy reception of the sacraments, constant prayer, and rigorous study of the faith is now essential, not merely a luxury.

The front line and primary battle is going to be the fight for life: the dignity of every human life from the moment of conception to the last moment of natural life. If we lose that one, every other battle space will be compromised. If the government succeeds in establishing abortion as an inalienable “right”, then the elderly and sick will be next. It will then be a short and slippery step to the government deciding who lives and dies regardless of their inherent human dignity.

If you don’t already pray the Rosary every day, please start at once. The prayer of the Holy Rosary is the prayer of the Holy Gospel, and that means it is the prayer of the Good News Who is Jesus Christ, the LIFE of the world. Many saints will be forged in the crucible of the coming years. Make sure you are among them.

~God bless you, Fr. John Corapi

Obama and His Pro-Abortion Radical Administration

Current Supreme Court Nominee - Sonia Sotomayor

(From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia)

President Barack Obama announced his choice of Sonia Sotomayor on May 26, 2009 to fill the seat left vacant by Justice Souter.

Six of the current justices of the court were appointed by Republican Presidents, while two were appointed by a Democratic President. It is popularly accepted that Chief Justice Roberts and Justices Scalia, Thomas, and Alito compose the Court's conservative wing. Justices Stevens, Ginsburg and Breyer are generally thought of as the Court's more liberal wing. Justice Anthony Kennedy, generally considered a conservative who "occasionally vote[s] with the liberals", is most likely to be the swing vote that determines the outcome of court.

OBAMA’S RECORD IS CLEAR: PRO ABORTION TO THE CORE

The guest commentary today is by Michael Hichborn, director of American Life League’s Canon 915 Project.

Recently, Gian Maria Vian, editor-in-chief of the Vatican newspaper L’Osservatore Romano, said in an interview that he does not believe Barack Obama is a “pro-abortion president.” In discussing the president’s speech at the University of Notre Dame, Vian said: "The President said that the approval of the new law on abortion is not a priority of his administration. The fact that he said that is very reassuring to me. It also underlines my own clear belief: Obama is not a pro-abortion president."

Regardless of what the new president says, actions speak louder than words, and even though Barack Obama claims that he is not making the approval of a new law on abortion a priority, his own cabinet appointments belie a completely different reality. In fact, not only has Obama chosen to surround himself with pro-abortion radicals, but also a good percentage of those are “Catholic.”
