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.”
