Wow, I cannot believe what I am reading. So its okay that McCain does not support and take care of his wife and children that already exist....as long as he thinks that people that don't technically exist have rights. That's the kind of leader we need! The truth is, it is above Obama's paygrade to determine when life begins...its above all of us. That is God's decision. According to the Tanakh (Old Testament), life begins at birth. I'm certainly not pro-abortion...but I am pro-choice. Statistics show that the majority of abortions occur in so-called Christian homes. It's no wonder when young girls are scared into believing they will go to Hell for premarital sex. Instead of demonizing premarital sex as the ultimate sin, we should be supporting our children when they make poor decisions. If the church and parents would console and support instead of punish, far fewer girls would have abortions. That is the point Obama has made. He wants to educate people and provide support so that women can make a choice to either keep the baby and give it up for adoption rather than having an abortion. Notice that Bill Clinton felt the same way as Obama and abortion rates were much lower. Under Bush, the number of abortions skyrocketed because it became centerstage. There are many more important issues than rights for children that aren't born yet. If McCain gets in...the economy is going to completely crash and you will see abortions go up even more because people are not going to have sex, but they can't afford the children they might give birth to as a result of sex.
