"I WANT TO BE ABLE TO KILL MY GRANDCHILDREN RATHER THAN CARE FOR THEM?":
Obama: Funding Planned Parenthood is Important for My Daughters (Fr. Ben Johnson, 7/29/12, Orthodoxy.net)
Kind of an odd message unless he's still worried about his furthest Left base.President Barack Obama again invoked his daughters as reasons to support the abortion industry in a campaign stop in Portland, Oregon, on Tuesday."Mr. Romney wants to get rid of funding for Planned Parenthood," the president told nearly 1,000 donors at the Oregon Convention Center. "I think that is a bad idea. I've got two daughters. I want them to control their own health care choices. We're not going backwards; we're going forwards."The reference echoes a comment he made in 2008 on the campaign trail. "I've got two daughters, 9 years old and 6 years old," he said. "If they make a mistake, I don't want them punished with a baby."
