She Probably is Right

Washington, DC (LifeNews.com) -- Incoming president Barack Obama ran on a campaign of change but one leading African-American pro-life advocate doesn't think he will bring any positive change on America's abortion-on-demand culture.
Day Gardner, the head of the National Black Pro-Life Union, notes Obama talked about reducing abortions during the campaign, but she says Obama's record will likely prove those claims bathetic.
"I think most Americans, me included, are looking to see what 'change' will come from the man who made the word his entire campaign strategy," she said.
Gardner says that, before Obama's election, "Planned Parenthood and other abortion organizations managed to kill 17 million black children by abortion since 1973, making abortion the number one killer of black people."
"Before Obama, 36% of all abortions were performed on black girls -- abortion facilities are still purposefully placed in minority areas," she told LifeNews.com. "Before Obama, Planned Parenthood ... received over 300 million of our tax dollars to continue the vicious dismembering and killing of innocent children."
Though she doesn't think Obama will do much to reduce abortions -- and will likely expand them by overturning pro-life laws and forcing taxpayers to fund abortions -- Gardner says she is hopeful.
"It is my hope and prayer that he will have the strength needed to refuse to be bought off by the big abortion guns and advocates," Gardner said. "I hope and pray that he will hear the small voices of black children and all children in the womb crying out to be born."
"I hope and pray that he will see that every child born and unborn is equal in God's eyes and therefore deserving of birth. Children are not expendable," she added.
Gardner concluded: "Abortion has killed more 50 million children in just over 30 years. On behalf of the children I implore you--the campaigner for change--to change that."

Why do I tend to think she is right about him not doing much to reduce abortions? Check out these 2 stories about 2 more of Obama's appointments:
Incoming president Barack Obama today finalized the appointment of a leading pro-abortion lawyer as his top legal counsel. Dawn Johnsen, a former NARAL attorney, will serve as the Assistant Attorney General for the Office of the Legal Counsel in the Obama administration.
Barack Obama is adding to the pro-abortion record he is building as the incoming president and he has tapped pro-abortion Virginia. Gov. Tim Kaine to be the next chairman of the Democratic Party. Kaine will step into the handpicked role later this month and mold the party to promote Obama's agenda.
Obama appoints a NARAL attorney, & he selects Kaine as Dem chair. In 2005 the director of NARAL's Virginia affiliate said this about Kaine during the campaign: "Between these two men, we see more hope ... in Kaine's candidacy, and we are eager and willing to work with him on these important issues should he be elected." Coincidence?, I think not!
Change? Yes. For the better? Only if you are a part of the "culture of death". For thousands of unborn who will continue to be murdered via abortion every day in the USA, definitely NOT!
