In this political season, there are tremendous opportunities to expose the hypocrisy of the Democrats by discussing the abortion issue with them. Also, it is an ideal time to initiate a discussion about abortion with someone who normally may not think about it. If a Democrat is asked why they vote that way or what the party stands for, a few items usually come up. They will often state that the Democrat Party stands for the little guy, human rights and tolerance.
Some questions to ask them are:
Do Democrats support the little guy? Why do Democrats almost uniformly believe we should destroy the littlest guy in the name of abortion?When the Democrat is faced with your questions, it seems they will answer in different ways. They may say that they don't care about the abortion issue, which gives one an opportunity to explain the hypocrisy once again. They might also say that they care about the issue, but it's a woman's right to choose. Then the discussion can shift to what the unborn actually is and what the woman is choosing to do.Do Democrats believe in human rights? What groups in this world should have basic human rights? Should terrorist prisoners of war have rights? Should the incarcerated in this country have a right to be treated humanly? Do you believe the unborn should have basic human rights, especially the right not to be killed?
Do the Democrats believe we should tolerate certain groups or lifestyles? Why do the Democrats not always tolerate the unborn children group?
Many Democrats vote as they do because of family tradition or an affiliation of a particular group, such as a union. Unions, in general, say that they represent the little guy and his rights in the workplace. The Democrat then can be asked about the aborted unborn who will never have a right to even live, let alone workplace rights.
When it comes to specifically Barack Obama, it can be brought to their attention that he has a 100% pro-abortion record in his political career. In fact, in 2002, when he was in the Illinois legislature, Obama voted against the Induced Infant Liability Act. This act would have protected babies that survived late-term abortions. Also, in 2002, the same type of bill, the Born Alive Infant Protection Act, was signed into law by President Bush. There was nearly unanimous approval by Congress. Even the pro-choice group NARAL supported the legislation.
Recently, Barack Obama gave a well-publicized speech in Berlin, Germany. Excerpts from it show how hypocritical he is:
Will we stand for the human rights of the dissident in Burma, the blogger in Iran, or the voter in Zimbabwe? Will we give meaning to the words "never again" in Darfur?
Pro-life response: Will he stand for the human rights of the unborn? Will he give meaning to the words "never again" to the despicable act of abortion in this country?
Will we acknowledge that there is no more powerful example than the one each of our nations projects to the world? Will we reject torture and stand for the rule of law?
Pro-life response: Will he project the image that America believes it is acceptable to kill 4,000 of its own every day? Will he reject the torture and death of the unborn? Will he stand for the rule of law against murder?
Will we welcome immigrants from different lands, and shun discrimination against those who don't look like us or worship like we do, and keep the promise of equality and opportunity for all of our people?
Pro-life response: Will Obama continue to discriminate against the unborn who don't quite look like us yet? Will he promise equality and opportunity for all of our people, either born or unborn?
I know my country has not perfected itself. At times, we've struggled to keep the promise of liberty and equality for all of our people. We've made our share of mistakes, and there are times when our actions around the world have not lived up to our best intentions.
Pro-life response: Does he mean the mistakes of 1.3 million abortions every year in this country?
LOL
Do Democrats support the little guy?
Yep. We also support the little gal.
Why do Democrats almost uniformly believe we should destroy the littlest guy in the name of abortion?
We don't. Anyone who wants to carry a pregnancy to term is free to do so. We just believe it should be up to the woman.
Do Democrats believe in human rights?
Yep, and that includes women.
What groups in this world should have basic human rights?
Human beings, not embryos.
Should terrorist prisoners of war have rights?
Yep.
Should the incarcerated in this country have a right to be treated humanly?
Humanely, even.
Do you believe the unborn should have basic human rights, especially the right not to be killed?
Not at all. If a woman wants an abortion, she should be able to have one.
Do the Democrats believe we should tolerate certain groups or lifestyles?
Yep.
Why do the Democrats not always tolerate the unborn children group?
Democrats have no problem tolerating embryos. Anyone who wants to carry an embryo to term is free to do so, and anyone who does NOT want to carry an embryo should NOT be forced to do so. It's as simple as that.
"Human beings, not embryos" - and yet embryos are human beings - a fact. Humans are intrinsically valuable and our dignity does not depend upon our age, sex, ethnicity, intelligence, whether or not others find us valuable, developmental status, etc.
