"That is no way implies that he "believes it is just fine" to smuggle
children across state lines for abortions against their parents'
will. What it does is leave an option for a "child" for which
seeking a parent's consent is not an option, as in when the child may
be beaten, kicked out onto the streets, or worse, even killed. If
parents have the kind of relationship wherein their children talk to
them, they will come talk to them. But Obama's and his people's
position is that you cannot impose a tragic situation upon a child
who does not live under such rosy circumstances."
If he voted against the ban, then he must be for it. This is a black and white issue, actually. His vote is what counts...not what he thinks. Your statement above seems to be a 'scare tactic' used to frighten people into believing that ban is a good idea. Barack and Hillary are willing to eliminate parental rights to further their pro-abortion agenda.
You are aware, I assume, that a large number of teens are impregnated by adult men. What we are dealing with much of the time is the child's consequences of disobedience. Yes, they're afraid, because the majority of them violated rules imposed by their parents. It does not discourage them or help them learn that the rules are there for their protection when they are surrounded by other adults, 'authority figures,' who will help them 'hide' the evidence of their wrongdoing or that of someone else. If a minor is physically intimate with an adult, it's a crime. Do you realize that places like Planned Parenthood don't report when a minor informs them that she's been intimate with an adult? Other health practitioners are required by law to report these instances as assault.
