SO MUCH FOR REACHING OUT TO THE RELIGIOUS:
Barack Obama Picks Long-Time Abortion Advocate Joe Biden as Running Mate (Steven Ertelt, 8/23/08, LifeNews.com)
Biden is a fierce abortion proponent and someone who has made a reputation out of badgering Supreme Court nominees about abortion during confirmation hearings.In fact, before he dropped out of the Democratic primary race Obama eventually won, Biden confirmed he would have a pro-abortion litmus test for his own possible judicial picks.
"I would not appoint anyone who did not understand that Section 5 of the 14th Amendment and the Liberty Clause of the 14th Amendment provided a right to privacy ... which means they would support Roe v. Wade," he said in a November debate.
