Abortion and Obama

Watch the video, then come back:

I've said it before and I'll say it again: When government views itself as caretaker of the populace, when abortion gets rid of economically disadvantaged people, when abortion limits the number of mouths for the government to feed, they view abortion as a good thing.

People who believe liberals are standing up for the individual right to do anything are wrong. Abortion isn't the right of a person to terminate a pregnancy, it is the way for liberals to reduce government spending (perhaps, the only way they know).

Now, reconcile these two statements:

"I do not suggest that the debate surrounding abortion can or should go away. Because no matter how much we may want to fudge it -- indeed, while we know that the views of most Americans on the subject are complex and even contradictory -- the fact is that at some level, the views of the two camps are irreconcilable," Obama said.

vs.

But Obama called for "open hearts, open minds, fair-minded words" in the midst of such persistent debates.

So, one side thinks the other side is murdering millions. And, Obama realizes that this could cause a problem with trying to come to an agreement. But, with the belief that millions of lives are on the line, he is urging "open hearts, open minds, fair-minded words"???

If Obama were president during WWII, we would still be trying to convince Hitler that he should "understand our view".
