    Obama gives Dana Delaney her wish

    he lifts the ban on U.S. Taxpayer funding of abortions in other countries.

    From AlertNet dot org:

    President Barack Obama on Friday lifted restrictions on U.S. government funding for groups that provide abortion services or counseling abroad, reversing a policy of his Republican predecessor George W. Bush.

    The Democratic president's decision was a victory for advocates of abortion rights on an issue that in recent years has become a tit-for-tat policy change each time the White House shifts from one party to the other.

    Infanticide advocates win, and as usual, American taxpayers lose.  Not only are we paying for abortions in this country, but now, we get the privilege of paying for them in foreign countries too.

    Obama and the National Socialists are trying to make the signing of this executive order as stealthy as possible.

    In contrast to his executive order to close the U.S. prison at Guantanamo Bay, Cuba, which he signed in a ceremony before journalists, the president issued this order quietly and the White House released a statement at 7 p.m. EST/2400 GMT.

    The ban that Obama lifted on Friday was originally called the Mexico City Policy, but opponents call it the "Gag Order", because they somehow associate a refusal to fund abortions with American taxpayer money to a block on free speech.

    Critics call it the "gag rule" because it cuts funds to groups that advocate lifting abortion restrictions, which critics say means it blocks free speech. They say it reduced healthcare for some of the world's poorest women.

    Congratulations Dana!

    God help us!

    Gag order, eh? (none / 0) (#1)

    It's an interesting logic that calls this (former) policy a "gag order", because it somehow limits free speech.  

    I guess to Liberal women, free speech means the spewing of aborted fetuses, from one orifice or another.  Follow-up question:  When can we expect an ACLU lawsuit against the tampon companies?  Surely they serve no purpose but to limit the flow of a liberal woman's free speech..?
