Why I like Obama

I'm a democrat, and he's far better than Hillary














I know, I just finished my diatribe against abortion. Obama is pro-choice. The next president may well select two supreme court justices. So what's up?

I don't actually want a civil war. I want wide bipartisan agreement on what needs to be done, which, as Kucinich said, is to reduce the likelihood of abortions.

I don't know any models of how abortions would be affected by criminalization. If the pro-choice argument is true, that most women with unwanted pregnancies will just have back-alley coathanger abortions, then I would say we should keep it safe and legal. Why harm both the child AND the mother?

If, on the other hand, we can spread the word about using both condoms and spermicidal foam or whatever in tandem, and, barring that, using the day after pill, the need for abortions would be nullified. (I just discovered that this pill is, technically, a chemically-induced abortion. Logically, if we permit day-after pills, we might as well permit adult murder; it's just a matter of size: we're all infinitely small compared to the universe; we kill bugs, we're all bugs to God, God loves bugs, killing bugs is only acceptable in self-defense. Thus, so is the day after pill, but only 0.0044% percent of births, in the West, result in the death of the mother.

I don't like Hillary because she thinks of keeping the option to kill your own baby as "empowerment." She also calls keeping the right of youth to have an abortion without parental consent "empowerment" as well. If we want to call murder "empowerment" then all you sickos vote Hillary. If that's how you want to empower your child... you would probably be selected for the house of slytherin. Barack on the other hand, describes the abortion decision as one he trusts women to make prayerfully. That means in consultation with God. Well, I, God, want them to go to term, and either keep their baby or give him or her for adoption.

She is combative, and would be the Democratic Dubya, isolating the Republicans this time from full inclusion in the political process, in my opinion. Barack, though, is truly an inspiration, and is capable of inspiring this nation to doing greater, doing greatness. He's the head of a movement, and we need as many leaders to solve the multitude of problems we face as possible.

I perceive Hillary to be power-hungry, and Barack as more of a kindhearted soul. I also believe that, as a consequence, he would be a more effective leader. Perhaps less likely to use a nuke, too, if it ever came to that. Well, enough of that. Vote Barack!
