Obama pushing for a raise

in his recent appearance at Rick Warren's Saddleback Church. Warren had asked Obama:
"Now, let’s deal with abortion. 40 million abortions since Roe v. Wade. you know, as a pastor I have to deal with this all of the time. All of the pain and all of the conflicts. I know this is a very complex issue. 40 million abortions. At what point does a baby get human rights in your view?"

Obama responded:

"Well, I think that whether you are looking at it from a theological perspective or a scientific perspective, answering that question with specificity, you know, is above my pay grade."


"We need a President who doesn't think that the protection of the unborn or a newly born baby is above his pay grade."

- Fred Thompson

Yeah he's not "quite firm" on when life begins...that's probably because he doesn't really care when life begins. He is opposed to protecting the life of a baby who has survived outside the womb after a failed abortion. Whether it begins at conception or after the baby has left the womb he still thinks that it's OK to kill the baby. I mean you don't want someone to 'be punished by a baby'.
