Deadly agenda for US and the world prepared for Obama presidency
As Barack Obama prepares to become the 44th President of the United States next month it is not just Americans who should be concerned by the inauguration of a man who holds such extreme anti-life views.
Few politicians anywhere espouse policies as extreme as Mr Obama’s. In 2001, when as a member of the
In no sense could the survival of a child after an abortion be considered a threat to his or her mother yet Mr Obama believed helping such a baby to live would undermine the legal right to abortion. Explaining his opposition to the Illinois Born Alive Infant Protection Act he said:
"...whenever we define a pre-viable fetus as a person that is protected by the equal protection clause or the other elements in the Constitution, what we're really saying is, in fact, that they are persons that are entitled to the kinds of protections that would be provided to a – child, a 9-month-old – child that was delivered to term. …
"I mean, it – it would essentially bar abortions, because the equal protection clause does not allow somebody to kill a child, and if this is a child, then this would be an anti-abortion statute..."
Although he sought to avoid the issue of abortion once he had secured his party's nomination, the abortion industry has not forgotten that he told them "...the first thing I’d do as president is, is sign the Freedom of Choice Act."
While the US Supreme Court's ruling in Roe v Wade made legal efforts to limit abortion virtually impossible, a number of regulations have been successful in gradually reducing the abortions figures in recent years. The Freedom of Choice Act (FOCA) would remove these. It could end the bar on the the use of tax-payer's money to provide abortions, dispense with waiting periods and inform consent requirements and as well as parental notification laws of States where clinics are prevented from carrying out secret abortions to underage girls.
An insight into the radical agenda influencing the incoming US government is provided by “Advancing Reproductive Rights and Health in a New Administration,” a memorandum signed by 60 or so pro-abortion organisations, including International Planned Parenthood Federation, the biggest promoter of abortion in the world, and a group which calls itself "Catholics for Choice."
Despite its publication by the Obama-Biden transition team on the President-elect official website, it is unlikely that such a detailed and wide-ranging paper was intended to be seen by the public. It is so precise in its demands that it even contains draft wording of executive orders the abortion industry wants Mr Obama to sign within the first 100 days of his presidency. It also lists abortion advocates suitable for government jobs and the names of those the abortion lobby would like to see appointed as judges to federal courts.
Amongst its demands is coverage in any tax-payer-subsidised national health care programme. Such a programme would almost certainly compel all major hospitals, including Catholic hospitals to provide abortions. Other proposals made in the 55-page document include:
- a dramatic increase in the funding for birth control clinics from its present $300 million to $700 million in the next financial year;
- allocation of $50 million on "comprehensive" sex-education promoting abortion and abortifacients birth control, while stripping abstinence-only sex-education programmes of all funding;
- $20 million to be spent on teenage pregnancy programmes;
- $10 million for the promotion of the morning-after pill;
- removal of budgetary restrictions on abortion in the federal sector, such as military facilities and prisons;
- "reinvigoration” of the National Task Force on Violence against healthcare providers, code for getting tough on pro-life opposition at abortion facilities;
- the appointment of only pro-abortion judges and officials;
- re-establish liasion between women's groups and the White House; and
- a review the Federal Refusal Rule proposed last August aimed at protecting medical personnel who object to involvement in abortion.
This last point is crucial since more and more doctors and medical staff want nothing to do with abortion. The abortion lobby realises that legalised abortion is of limited value if doctors are not available to perform the opperation. For its own survival, the abortion industry must ensure that doctors with a conscientious objection to abortion must be legally compelled to facilitate them.
In the international arena the authors of the memorandum want Mr Obama to:
- allocate $1 billion in funding for birth control and abortion programmes;
- give $65 million to the UNFPA, which is complicit in coercive abortion through its involvement in
- “reclaim” US leadership in the field of women's health in developing nations by providing $900 million for maternal mortality action, including action against so-called unsafe abortion - a public relations spin for pressuring governments of poor nations to legalise abortion;
- meet the Bush administration's spending plans on HIV/AIDS programmes but integrate birth control programmes with AIDS prevention schemes (Bush’s pledge not to support programmes which do not oppose prostitution should, however, be revised)
- issue new guidance on USAID policy so that it can fund programmes involving abortion.
And finally, the memorandum calls on Mr Obama to press for US ratification of the Convention on the Elimination of Discrimination Against Women or CEDAW treaty. The CEDAW implementation committee is notorious for its attempts to bully countries into liberalising their abortion laws. It has repeatedly called upon the
If Barack Obama complies with each of these demands the effects will be felt for a generation not just in the

Here is an interesting photo concerning Int. Planned Parenthood:
On the back, centre left is William Gates Sr. the father of Bill Gates and former head of Planned Parenthood. I'm sure you recognize the fellow on the back row in the right corner (David Rockerfeller). Also interesting to mention is Brooke Astor who's in the front row on the right, she married into the elite Astor family. She's 99 years old in this picture and died recently at the age of 105. Ted Turner (husband of Hanoi Jane Fonda) is on the back left.
Here they are again, with David Rockefeller's son this time.
Taken from an extremely interesting discusssion to be found here:
What is behind all this? I wonder......

And from the other end of human life we have an typical example of respect, kindness and thanks regularly shown to the elderly here in wonderful old Great Britain these days:
This past month has seen story after story of millions being spent on immigrant invaders — living in million pound houses and drawing benefits for not working — yet the final story of this year is of how a dying 101-year old decorated British war hero was sent home from an NHS hospital wearing only a nappy and a set of ill-fitting pyjamas.
Brigadier John Platt, who won the Distinguished Service Order for his bravery in battle, was left “degraded and humiliated” by his treatment by Salisbury District Hospital, his family said.
Brigadier Platt had spend five days on a mixed-sex ward during which his hearing aid was stepped on and crushed, his false teeth went missing and his soiled pyjamas were piled up in a locker by his bed for the duration.
He was unable to feed himself and was discharged in an incontinent and confused state, clutching a bag of his dirty clothes.
Brigadier Platt, who took part in one of the fiercest battles of the Italian campaign during the Second World War, died several days after his hour-long journey home to Morpeth, in Northumberland.....
