Obama's Gaffe Provides Fuel for Pro-Life Attacks

Barak Obama recently made a comment that should spread like wildfire throughout the Pro-Life community. Here is the report as retold in a recent column by Pat Buchanan.

Near the end of a town hall meeting in Johnstown, Pa., a woman arose to offer a passionate plea to Barack Obama to "stop these abortions."

Obama's response was cool, direct, unequivocal.

"Look, I got two daughters -- 9 years old and 6 years old. ... I am going to teach them first about values and morals, but if they make a mistake, I don't want them punished with a baby."


I can't imagine any starker contrast than between this answer from from Obama and the response from Sarah Palin and her husband to the fact that their teenage daughter is pregnant. I'm sure this quote will be used to raise tons of money for Pro-Life causes and should cost Obama the support of those few Pro-Lifers who might have still planned on voting for him.
