[Vision2020] Say What?

Promise No. 501: Sign the Freedom of Choice Act
"Throughout my career, I've been a consistent and strong supporter of reproductive justice, and have consistently had a 100% pro-choice rating with Planned Parenthood and NARAL Pro-Choice America. ... And I will continue to defend this right by passing the Freedom of Choice Act as president."



Combine that with this from Yahoo news:

WASHINGTON - President Barack Obama on Friday struck down the Bush administration's ban on giving federal money to international groups that perform abortions or provide abortion information - an inflammatory policy that has bounced in and out of law for the past quarter-century. Obama's executive order, the latest in an aggressive first week reversing contentious Bush policies, was warmly welcomed by liberal groups and denounced by abortion rights foes.

What this has to do with his mothers temporary sexual partner (doesn't sound to me as though he was much of a husband, father, or even much of a human being) pretty much nothing. I believe that Mr. Limbaugh's point was that just because the obot's are all in awe of bho and his historic hue is no reason to abandon conservative principals and hop on their ultra liberal bandwagon. We wish him well when he's on the right side of any given issue (in the unlikely event that should that ever happen) and oppose him where he is not.

  What was the abortion campaign promise? And what does any of this have to do with the fact that his father was an African?

    If BHO plans on making good on his campaign promises with regard to abortion, education, taxes, health care, the second amendment, the global warming hoax, and the war on terror, then I suspect a huge portion of the 53 million American's who didn't vote for him (once) hope he fails miserably, myself included.

    Remember how your side wished President GW the best? Sort of like that but without the shrillness and childish demonstrations.
