Here We Go (sigh)

In just the third full day of President Obama's administration, he begins making good on his promises to push his radically liberal agenda concerning abortion. Just today:

-President Obama lifts a ban on federal funding for international groups that promote or perform abortions, reversing a policy of his predecessor, George W. Bush. (Note to the President: waiting until late on a Friday evening to recind the previous Presidents order really says a lot)

-First Embryonic Stem Cell Trial Gets FDA Approval (this is not directly the action of the President, but it is penultimately a result of his policies and the Democrats being placed in power)

Next up I am sure he will sign the Freedom of Choice Act (FOCA) into law. If you are not familiar with FOCA, read my post on Oct. 31, 2008 called "Obama the Abortionist". Click this link if you want to sign the Fight Against FOCA petition.

Even if you are not staunchly anti-abortion as I am; even if you are in the camp of "It's a woman's right to choose", do you really want YOUR tax dollars going to fund abortions? Why do my tax dollars need to go to ANY organisation that funds abortions anywhere? Planned Parenthood already receives about $300M dollars per year in federal grants and last year posted a reported $51M profit! I don't get it!! This is so upsetting to me!!!

The fact that many in this country CELEBRATE this supposed "right" makes me sick.
