From the Family Research Council-
After granting a 24-hour stay on the execution of the unborn, President Obama delivered today on his promise of taxpayer-funded promotion of abortion. This afternoon, the new administration inked the order overturning the "Mexico City policy" and unleashing millions of federal dollars to international abortion groups. Of course, it was no accident that the new president postponed the act until the last possible minute on Friday, knowing the repeal would be buried in the weekend headlines. Issuing it now means that even the presidential blackberry will get more media coverage than his international abortion bailout. The end of "Mexico City" is nothing less than a tragedy for the world's poor. For more on this and other events of this week, watch the video I've recorded which can be seen at frcblog.com.
This story (http://www.foxnews.com/politics/first100days/2009/01/23/obama-lift-ban-overseas-abortion-funding/) was also on Fox News.

I don't understand. If our economy is so bad, why is our President willing to fund programs in foreign countries. I fear what will happen to our nation because of this. Also, this has been so under-reported by the media. I haven't seen this on the news at all, just internet.

I heard this too. Just sad, just don't know what to say, really what could I say, this is just gut wrenching.

Just continuing to pray for the direction of our country and its people. Keeping plans, bills, rights, laws etc straight regarding our government anymore is impossible. If our forefathers only knew what their good intentions of our godly declaration of independence would some day become, how its been loop holed to allow and grant is just horrible!

I read this too. Nice huh? The whole World is in recession but let's fund to kill babies. And while I understand this also is for education and care...there are plenty of other groups who do that WITHOUT performing abortions. But...his actions are not mine to judge. Question (it is some of my tax money afterall)...yes. Judge? No.:???: Prayers again for this administration. ~Kerri

I saw it to on Foxnews.com. I don't understand it either kymommy. Why are we sending $ overseas when our country is in the middle of bailouts?

I heard this too. It is so saddening, that money could be used for helping the poor in our own country instead of killing babies in another one. It's messed up!

Come on guys, he is just giving the people what they want :mrgreen:

You know what I find strange, is the people who are happy he did this are the same people who critized the US for not getting more involved with Darfur...[whatthink]

Yup ... I read it in the "DRUDGE REPORT" ... and I was just sick...

:s

But ... we knew it... right?

And it's just the beginning...

Hugs!

That's right. No worries folks, King Obama will make SURE that no matter how bad the economy gets, there will always be ample funds to kill babies.
