This is SCARY. No way Obama can make this sound good. Its like handing over the NAACP to the KLAN. They already have trillions of dollars, now theyre taking even more of our hard earned tax dollars? So that they can call us all sinners and stone us in the street. welcome to theocracy. I hope they all come to their senses. is obama just a prop up dem for the religious right?

I am for a woman to decide as to keeping the infant she bore, to have him adopted or to abort in the first trimester.

I also know that the begining of using stem cell research can save lives.

Everyone needs to stop trying to second guess what Obama has in store for his first term. He had to get elected FIRST and foremost, which it is a guaranteed fact that he would never have been elected if he failed to compromise, or at least portray that he either had compromised, and/or was willing to compromise on a vast array of issues that affect each and every one of us.

This aside, he has made it very clear that he wants and needs to hear OUR voices, even via current technologies that have never been used openly, let alone promoted as an open line of communication with the President of the United States.

Regardless of the issue, or group involved, civil and/or human rights have been won because ‘we the people’ DEMANDED them, in large numbers, forcing the other side to compromise. No one, on either side of the isle, is going to put their neck on the chopping block without a LOT of pressure and demand, and that includes Obama.

In all respects, our pressure and demands not only create the platform for our MESSAGE to be heard, it protects the MESSENGER that will deliver our message. Instead of our opponents feeling safely victorious, should we stand back and wait for Obama to act alone, We need to stand all around him, as well as with him… if not, then WE have failed our own cause, as well as each other.
