Obama Surgeon General Pick Regina Benjamin Wanted Docs to Learn Abortions

Washington, DC -- President Barack Obama named Alabama physician Regina Benjamin as the next Surgeon General of the United States. Benjamin is an African-American doctor who is known for rebuilding her medical clinic after it was destroyed by Hurricane Katrina in 2005, and then ravaged by fire in 2006.

However, Benjamin has also urged that future physicians be trained to learn how to perform abortions.

Could she be this big of a statement of contradiction? Some things are not adding up, here.

On one hand:
She's: Catholic; a board member of the Catholic Health Association of the US; received the papal honor Pro Ecclesia et Pontifice from Pope Benedict XVI; received the National Caring Award; says the Church was always a very important part of my life; says she is carrying on the healing ministry of Christ; etc.

And on the other hand:
She is on the board of directors of Physicians for Human Rights, which promotes the performing of abortions in other nations and has called for the US to ratify the CEDAW treaty.

We need more information on her.

So much for "First, do no harm...".

Or how about the Hippocratic Oath (before it was "updated")...

I will not give a lethal drug to anyone if I am asked, nor will I advise such a plan; and similarly I will not give a woman a pessary to cause an abortion.

If I heard correctly on Rush Limbaugh's show today, Dr. Benjamin has stated that she believes that doctors' practices should not be making profits. Does she think that doctors should all be "professional" slaves? And by implementing such an idea, what quality of doctors would she expect to be produced in this country? She seems to fit Obama's perverse plans perfectly and will be a fitting partner in carrying out his initiative to destroy the best health care system in the world.

This just grieves my heart so much, that I can hardly address this, but my son is headed for Medical School.

Can someone really be forced to kill another human being? I just feel like throwing up at the thought of these monsters in charge of our country. MONSTERS. OBAMA MONSTERS.

Why don’t these people just do away with all the posturing and pretense and just pass a law that they and their fellow evil travelers can be allowed to throw newborns into giant flaming pits.

When you put that into context with the Obama Science Czar’s thinking and the comments out of Ginsburg, we are in deep, deep trouble with these people.

Let’s not get into that. It just makes FR look “extreme”, and I wanna keep this site around for as long as possible. The problem isn’t her ethnicity, it’s whether she’s qualified. And you knew 0 would pick a pro-abort type.

She’s going to force people to perform abortions? These RATS stop at NOTHING. Where can I find that? I want to forward it to my stupid liberal brother.

It would be hilarious to see them try to defend a ban like that. It would have to go something like: the “right to privacy” has limits—killing your baby is obviously protected, but God forbid you test its sexual orientation first.
