Pro-Abortion Obamacare Opposition High as Supreme Court Enters
With one week until the Supreme Court takes a look at Obamacare, which includes taxpayer funding for abortions and a $1 abortion surcharge that has pro-life groups upset, new polling data shows strong opposition.
Two-thirds of Americans in a new ABC News/Washington Post poll want the Supreme Court to throw out the individual mandate or the entire Obamacare law. The poll finds Americans oppose the law overall by 52-41 percent and 67 percent want the high court to scrap all or part of the law.
Independents oppose the law by 51-43 percent, with strong opponents outnumbering strong supporters by 2-1.
The Supreme Court is expected to begin hearings on Obamacare starting next Monday. Ref. Source 9
Obama Promoting Abortion in Online Ads, Campaign Speech
President Barack Obama is not running away from his extensive pro-abortion record. Although he is employing euphemisms to not have to refer to the word abortion and his support for it, Obama is campaigning on a pro-abortion platform.
David Schmidt of Live Action noticed last week that, as he says, 'the Obama campaign has been running web ads declaring its support for abortion under the euphemism of "choice. Ref. Source 4
Here's where Obama is going to lose some votes. Before Black Americans voted for Obama just because he was Black, but now he is talking gay marriage so Black American churches are having to think twice about what they want their president to stand for. Originally they thought he was a regular Christian like them, but now they're seeing the new Obama.
The Disturbing Link Between Obama, Communism and Abortion
Conservatives are not shy about highlighting what they perceive as Marxist/communist roots in various aspects of Barack Obama's policies, vision, and rhetoric. Some of these alleged parallels are a stretch; others are not. Ref. Source 1
Pro-Lifers Plan Major Anti-Obama Demonstration at Dem Conventions
Pro-life activists are planning a major demonstration highlighting the pro-abortion record of President Barack Obama at the summer Democratic convention where he is expected to become the party's nominee for another four-year term.
The pro-life advocates behind the expected protests announced their plans at a news conference on Friday and said they will be active on-site at the Time Warner Arena, the site of the DNC convention in Charlotte, North Carolina. The organizations plan to publicly highlight the "radical pro-abortion policies of President Obama along with his hostility toward religious freedom."
"Abortion and religious freedom will be major issues in the 2012 Presidential election campaign," they say. Ref. Source 8
Obama Challenged to Publicly Condemn Forced Abortions
President Barack Obama has received a challenge from a top pro-life group to publicly condemn sex-selection abortions in light of a brutal forced abortion of a Chinese woman who was seven months pregnant when her baby was killed. Obama has come under fire from pro-life advocates for opposing a bill in Congress that would have banned forced abortions.
Today, following continued international outrage over a photo of a Chinese woman forced to abort her child at seven months pregnant, Susan B. Anthony List President Marjorie Dannenfelser called on President Obama to condemn China's One-Child Policy and immediately cut off funding for the United Nation's Population Fund (UNFPA) through an Executive Order.

Ending Abortion is the Final Civil Rights Frontier
For thirty-nine years, Americans have been dealing with the repercussions of Roe v. Wade, where the Supreme Court legalized abortion on the basis that the unborn are not people. Sometimes it may seem like the pro-life movement is progressing, and other times it seems as if the courts or other government entities are taking the pro-life movement back several steps. Ref.

Supreme Court Upholds Pro-Abortion, Pro-Rationing Obamacare
The Supreme Court has issued a 5-4 decision essentially upholding the Obamacare law that pro-life groups regard as the biggest expansion of abortion and abortion funding since Roe v. Wade. The law also drew strong opposition from the pro-life community not only over abortion but because the legislation also promotes rationing of medical care that could lead to involuntarily denying lifesaving treatment. The Supreme Court has incorrectly ruled that Obamacare is constitutional, pro-life groups are saying in response to the decision. They are pointing out that the need is greater now than ever to defeat pro-abortion President Barack Obama and elect a pro-life Senate that will join the House in repealing the legislation. Ref.
