WH: Aborting a Baby Because It's a Girl Part of 'A Very Personal and Private Decision'

(CNSNews.com) – The White House is opposed to a bill that was proposed in the House that would ban sex-selection abortions.

In defending President Obama's opposition to the bill, White House Press Secretary Jay Carney said it would force abortionists into the position of trying to determine the "motivations" behind a "very personal" decision.

During the White House press briefing Wednesday, Fox News reporter Ed Henry asked, “since the president has been outspoken about being against gender-based discrimination, how can you allow gender-based abortion?”

White House Press Secretary Jay Carney responded that President Obama is against discrimination in all forms, but the legislation under consideration would penalize doctors.

Aborting a Presidential term in its fourth year is also a personal and private decision, that is why voting should not be handled by Acorn and other public groups.

Ummm...isn’t judging motivation exactly what Obama/Holder’s cherished Hate Crimes are all about?

Why is it that they think that the fact of it’s being a “personal decision” somehow justifies it? The decision to eat someone’s face is a personal one, but that’s hardly an ennobling factor.

If Mitt keeps flipping in response to these more and more outrageous revelations from Barack Obama, by the time Nov. rolls around he will be claiming a platform hardly distinguishable from Attila the Hun. Whether he would mean it is a whole nother question.

I agree with Obama on this one; if we are going to allow people to murder their children their is no reason to limit it to male children.

I don’t want the affirmative action that has emasculated American men in college admissions, hiring, and promotions to now deplete our numbers by protecting female babies from the saline syringe or vacuum tube.

They know that using any legal means to stop any murder of babies will eventually be extended to stop all baby murders; maybe Obama really did go to school.

Yup, and the House very deftly outed Barack with this move. Cheese whiz, the bill didn’t even have to hit the Senate (where it would doubtless die a committee death) in order to get this public knee jerk out of Obama.

Jay Carney, how does it feel to be playing Harry Potter on behalf of Voldemort???

Let’s suppose we’re talking about a pregnancy that’s the result of a sperm bank donation. As a result of .... something... let’s say for hypothetical example that the baby produced looked “too black” for the taste of the prospective white parent(s). How would you feel about a “race-selective” abortion, then Mr. unqualified President?

Imagine if someday sciences identifies a “gay gene” and mothers start aborting babies that have it. Liberals heads will explode.
