Today we recognize the 37th anniversary of the Supreme Court decision in Roe v. Wade, which affirms every woman’s fundamental constitutional right to choose whether to have an abortion, as well as each American’s right to privacy from government intrusion. I have, and continue to, support these constitutional rights.
I also remain committed to working with people of good will to prevent unintended pregnancies, support pregnant women and families, and strengthen the adoption system.
Today and every day, we must strive to ensure that all women have limitless opportunities to fulfill their dreams.
All women except the ones terminated in the womb.
So we have a right to privacy to kill our children, but conscience protection – not so much. With abortion rates skyrocketing in his home state of Illinois we know exactly what the second statement of his paragraph means – nothing.

“Today and every day, we must strive to ensure that all women have limitless opportunities to fulfill their dreams.”
Yes, no limits! Let no law remain unchallenged, no “right” remain hindered; let no one and no thing stand in the way of a woman and her dreams.
Will I be on the chopping block, if I stand in the way of some woman’s dream? What about MY dream, as a man, to limit opportunities for women to fulfill their dreams? 😉
It’s okay to limit a woman’s dreams if her dream is to have babies and stay home taking care of them while they are small.
Especially if her dream is to have more than two.
God Fogives Everyone when we seek the truth with a sincere heart but I’m sad to say that “IT” is not so easy for me, myself, I, Souls and/or Spirits to forgive ourselves.
All we can do is pray that we see the light in “Time” so that they don’t bring U>S down also.
God Bless,
Peace
Abortion is no woman’s dream. It becomes the post-abortive woman’s recurring nightmare, and the nightmare of the abortion workers and the grieving fathers.
Sometimes it seems that the only industry the President supports fully is the abortion industry. The so-called “right” to abortion trumps everything else on the local level, too. On this Jan 22nd, at Planned Parenthood in Providence, a man was arrested AGAIN for calling out repeatedly to passers-by, “They kill children here. Please pray for an end to abortion”. The charge? Disturbing the peace. (It won’t stick; there is no ordinance against raising one’s voice as long as the voice is not amplified. It’s harassment and intimidation.)
Peace? What peace? And at what price? Children and the whole human family are paying the price for an invalid “right” to kill the innocent and the vulnerable. A “right” that translates to money gained from the exploitation of women.
This is not about rights. It’s about license and greed. And the “social management” that supports the ultimate death of all true human rights, beginning with life itself.
The “dream”-crap at the end gives it all away:
Ever since the transcendental has been pushed aside by the immanent, people do not only want to live their dreams, but want to live their dreams NOW, because later… well, you just can’t be sure that there really is a ‘later’, esp. after death.
So everything suddenly is about ‘dreams’ not about ‘reality’ or at least ‘visions’ anymore. That is why X marries the man/woman of his/her dreams and divorces him/her 2 years later: Because they didn’t have their eyes focused on the greater good and on man’s final end in a unified vision, but because his dream suddenly had to make room for her dream (or vice versa). So instead of looking at Christ in times of disharmony they just constantly keep on staring into each others eyes, desperately trying to keep alive a flame that already started dying the moment they exchanged their vows.
The price we all have to pay for this throw-away attitude are the lives of all the babies who all of a sudden are not dreams anymore but nightmares popping up at exactly the wrong time, not allowing mom or dad to “follow their dreams”, which in reality are nothing but an absence of vision; and because they are an absence, they are an evil.
ABORTION IS MURDER. PERIOD!
