Republican Sarah Palin, who has a baby with Downs Syndrome, Saturday spoke out publicly about her stand against abortion saying she believed in "the potential of every human life."
Devout Christian Palin, the party's vice presidential nominee, has so far steered largely clear of the emotional issue of abortion since being chosen as John McCain's running mate in August.
But she told a Johnstown, Pennsylvania, rally it was an important subject, and tried to skewer Democratic White House hopeful Barack Obama saying she had listened hard to his stand on abortion rights.
"It's hard to think of many issues that could possibly be more important than who is protected in law and who isn't. Who is granted life and who is denied it?" said the Alaska governor, who is known to oppose abortion in almost every circumstance.
"So I listened when our opponent defended his unconditional support for unlimited abortions and he said that a woman shouldn't have to be, quote, punished with a baby.
"It's about time that we called him on it."

“I don’t want to punish my daughter with a baby!” — Obama
Thoughts about abortion “above my pay grade.” — Obama
Sarah reminds them they have taken the road to hell, and hate to be reminded that they are on that road. The fact that Palin chose life for Trig, instead of destroying that life, reminds the pro-choice, leftists that choosing life is a stronger emotion than living with the knowledge of commiting murder.
It’s so tiresome that talking about an elected official’s publicly-held positions, official votes, and position statements is considered “personal” or “dirty.” If Obama is so ashamed of his positions and his votes, he should come out and publicly repudiate them.
Those people have been through more s**t in the last five weeks than most of us have to put up with in a lifetime.
As I read earlier, people are trying to destroy the Palin family NOW because they realize that they may be major players later down the road.
Sarah, expose Obama for the baby killer he is!
Congressman Lewis furiously looking for a racial message here.

The racial message *IS* there.
Because the ratio of abortions to live births for blacks is three times greater than it is for whites.

But that’s not the racial message the pro-abortion Left wants anybody to know about.
Think about it. There's been about 50 million legal abortions in this country since 1973. Of them, at least 25% of them were black. While abortions destroy the fabric of society, the hit is far worse in the black community. Say white aborted the other kids-38 million. According to this-
80% of America is white. So, of the 300,000,000 people in the US, that's 38 million out of 240 million. However, there's only about 40 million blacks in America....they've aborted 30% of their population.
Think about what I said before-ALL the civil rights leaders, black political leadership, and even black community leaders are either older middle-aged, or downright elderly. Barack Obama, the so-called "new generation", is 47 years old. Rev. Martin Luther King began his career with the Birminham Bus boycott when he was 26, won the Nobel Peace Prize at 35, and was considered an old fogey by younger black radicals when he was 39.
Another thing about Obama. He's just not all that bright. He's pretty-looking, for sure. However, it's kind of sad that the first serious black Presidential candidate in US history had to be a half-Kenyan, half-White descendant of slaveholders and slavetraders, because AFrican-Americans have aborted their future away.

seems like it’s the white racists that want the black babies to live and the liberal “non-racists” that want to kill the black babies too...
It’s Personal? Did Obama have an abortion?
Sarah Palin to remove obamas baby makers so he will not have to worry about abortion.
Killing babies, especially one’s own babies, is a personal thing to thinking human beings.
I think you’re right...the left hates it when they are reminded that they are not always on the side of the angels...whenever I am confronted by someone who tells me that Republicans are rich people who side with big business against the poor I always ask them if they realize that the Dems are joined at the hip with the abortion industry and the poverty industry...both these industries control billions of taxpayer dollars and promote not only the killing of our own offspring but also the cronyism and corruption that follows whenever there are governments handouts to be distributed...IMHO Obama is the 1st truly classy poverty pimp that we’ve seen in this country...step aside Al and Jesse...this pimp’s got a Harvard education.
That reminder evokes murderous rage.
Either they turn it on themselves, or they turn it on the person who reminded them of what they have done.
Since they are unrepentant, they choose the latter option.
Well said. Thank you for that post.
