Pro-Death Obama Slams McCain on Abortion "Rights"

ST. PAUL, Minn. — Barack Obama has launched a broadside against John McCain’s opposition to abortion rights and moved one of the most divisive issues in modern American politics to the airwaves on a large scale for the first time in this presidential campaign....

“Let me tell you: If Roe vs. Wade is overturned, the lives and health of women will be put at risk. That's why this election is so important,” says the nurse-practitioner who narrates Obama’s ad. “John McCain's out of touch with women today. McCain wants to take away our right to choose [to murder unborn babies]. That's what women need to understand. That's how high the stakes are....”

Obama supports abortion rights....[and infanticide after babies are born]

McCain aides didn’t respond to a question about the ad, but Republican Party communications director Danny Diaz responded by attacking Obama's opposition to an Illinois bill that advocates said would protect babies who survived abortions...
Perpetuating one of the greatest moral evils of all time. Who but an agent of Satan would engage in promoting fear that the demonic "right" to commit the genocidal murder of the innocent unborn might be abolished for all time for the good of society?

What's Your Moral IQ? The 7th & 10th Commandments

Allow ten points for each question. One hundred per cent means that you are a moral theologian; 90, you know the law; 80, you are about average; 70, you'd better join a study club.
___________________

1. John in good faith receives a jacket from Tom who has stolen it from Harry. John finds out that the jacket was stolen. May John keep the jacket?

2. Bill, an arsonist, intending to burn the adjoining house, sets fire to a pile of rubbish. The fire goes out without causing any damage. Does Bill commit a sin and is he bound to make restitution?

3. May Tom, who knows that Jerry has already flunked his examina­tion, make a bet with Ed, who does not know this, that Jerry wil1 flunk his examination?

4. Charley, a card shark, plays John, who does not know how extraordinarily clever his opponent is, for high stakes and wins. May Charley keep the money which he has won from John?

5. Steve, a broker, plays the stock market with his client's money. Has he any right to do this?

6. Bill plays the stock market and loses. Is he bound to pay his debt?

7. Mary intends to steal a hundred dollars from her roommate but only a few dollars at a time so that she will not commit a mortal sin. Does she commit a mortal sin, objectively?

8. Jane deliberately drops a lighted cigarette on the carpet in her hotel room and watches it burn. Looking at the damaged spot with a smile, she remarks: "The manager would not bother me about so small a thing as that." Is she bound to make restitution?

9. Bob bets Jack a Rosary that Jack will use vile language before the day is over. Is it all right to make such a bet?

10. Joe steals ten dollars from Tom, gambles with it and wins a hundred dollars. How much money must he restore to Tom?
