Secretary of State Clinton Admits Obama will Work to Dismantle Abortion Laws around the World
Regarding the following:
President B. Hussein Obama is the most pro-abortion president our country has ever had. Not only does he support
the killing of unborn children the entire nine months, including the barbaric and excruciating painful partial-birth
abortion, but he also supports killing BORN children by denying them treatment if they survive an abortion.
I'm positive that the devil is very proud of Obama as well as the entire Democrat party which has a clause in their
party platform that women should have a right to have their unborn children killed. Of course, they refrain from
using the word, "kill," they use the sugar-coated word, "abortion." Whereas, the Republican party has a clause that
respects the sanctity of human life starting at conception.
4,000 children are killed every day -- 1.3 million every year. Which party do you think the devil loves?

Secretary of State Clinton Admits Obama will Work to Dismantle Abortion Laws around the World
By Kathleen Gilbert
WASHINGTON, D.C., April 23, 2009 (LifeSiteNews.com) - In a House Foreign Affairs Committee hearing yesterday,
Secretary of State Hillary Clinton was confronted on her avowed commitment to eugenicist Margaret Sanger's global
agenda, and asked whether the Obama administration would work to overturn pro-life laws around the world - a priority
that Clinton confirmed.
In a hearing to discuss the Obama administration's foreign policy, New Jersey Congressman Chris Smith questioned
Clinton on her statements upon receiving Planned Parenthood's Margaret Sanger award on March 27. Clinton had said
she was "really in awe" of the Planned Parenthood founder.
"The 20th century reproductive rights movement, really embodied in the life and leadership of Margaret Sanger, was
one of the most transformational in the entire history of the human race," Clinton had said. She also said that
Sanger's work "is not done."
Smith yesterday asked Clinton about her praise for Sanger's eugenic agenda, saying "it is extraordinarily difficult
[to see] how anyone could be in awe" of Sanger, who "made no secret whatsoever" of her views.
"With all due respect, Madam Secretary, Sanger's legacy was indeed transformational, but not for the better if one
happens to be poor, disenfranchised, weak, disabled, a person of color, and unborn child, or among the many so-called
undesirables Sanger would exclude and exterminate from the human race," said Smith.
"Sanger's prolific writings dripped with contempt for those she considers to be unfit to live," he continued.
"Sanger was an unapologetic eugenicist and racist, who said, and I quote, 'The most merciful thing a family does for
one of its infant members is to kill it.'
"She also said, on another occasion, quote, 'Eugenics is the most adequate and thorough avenue to the solution of
racial, political and social problems.'"
Smith asked, "As part of Sanger's work that remains undone," whether the Obama administration seeks "in any way to
weaken or overturn pro-life laws and policies in African and Latin American countries, either directly or through
multilateral organizations, including and especially the United Nations, African Union, or the OAS, or by way of
funding NGOs like Planned Parenthood?"
Clinton replied: "It is my strongly held view that you are entitled to advocate and everyone who agrees with you
should be free to do so anywhere in the world, and so are we." (Video of Secretary Clinton's responses:

Clinton confirmed that the Obama administration's definition of "reproductive health" includes abortion, and that,
"We are now an Administration that will protect the rights of women, including their rights to reproductive health
care."
Congressman Jeff Fortenberry of Nebraska also told Clinton he was "stunned" by her commitment to Sanger, and that
he was "deeply grieved" at her answer to Congressman Smith.
"She [Sanger] advocated for the elimination of the disabled, the downtrodden, and the Black child," Fortenberry
objected. "I don't believe these ideologies have a place in our pluralistic society."
Decrying taxpayer funding of abortion overseas as "a form of neo-colonialism" that is "elitist, paternalistic, and
an assault on the dignity of the poor," Fortenberry challenged Clinton to instead pursue foreign policy that
"upholds the genius of womanhood and the life nestled within her."
Clinton responded by emphasizing that the "choice" to carry or kill an unborn child should be available "for all
women."
Commenting in a later statement on Clinton's remarks, Smith said: "It is evident that Mrs. Clinton and President
Obama want to force the tragedy of abortion upon women around the world especially and including in countries where
democratically elected leaders want to continue to protect their unborn children.
"There are other ways in which both mother and baby are protected, cared for and helped - with food, nutrition,
clean water and life-affirming healthcare," he said.
"Secretary Clinton's inability to see this will mean more babies will die and more women will suffer the consequence
of abortion as a result of U.S. foreign policy overseas."
