As you may have heard, President Obama is giving the commencement speech at Notre Dame University this year. Some are not happy about this. So what better way to make your displeasure known than to … drive around in a truck with large pictures comparing abortion to lynching and showing lynched black men?
Secret Service, pick up the white courtesy phone.
The good news is that many anti-choicers have been arrested, yeah! And oh, yes, we FINALLY have a pro-choice President who respects women!
Obama did pretty well at ND IMO. Only part that bothered me was that he had to toe the “abortion should be rare and its a painful decision for women” line.
I’m not saying thats always untrue but its damaging to the pro choice movement and doesn’t tell the whole story. Unwanted pregancy should be rare.
Indeed it should be but then it would have to be acknowledged that women, you know, like teh s3xx0r. As much as I like Prez Barry he is very much a typical politician and feels he has to tiptoe on that fine line. Smoke a joint and tell ‘em how you really feel!
While BO gags us with his fake commitment to abortion, he appoints Sotomeyer who is Hispanic Catholic and ratified Bush’s refusal to give foreign aid to family planning organizations.
