Dems say they want free abortion on demand

The mask came off last night at the Democratic national convention, although there was little question of what was behind it. The party released its official platform for 2012 saying it unequivocally supports Roe v. Wade. However it was a twist the party added to their platform that's raising eyebrows today.

CHARLOTTE, NC (Catholic Online) - "The Democratic Party strongly and unequivocally supports Roe v. Wade and a woman's right to make decisions regarding her pregnancy, including a safe and legal abortion, regardless of ability to pay."

The "regardless of ability to pay" suggests that the party intends to compel you to pay for abortions with your tax dollars, after all, abortion is big business and the mongers must be paid. 

The Obama camp has repeatedly attempted, with some success, to compel everyone to pay for abortions, except for those receiving them. Churches, religious institutions, and even private firms and individuals, regardless of the faith that informs their conscience, must pay money towards an inherently evil and immoral activity. 

In other words, the Democratic party, starting with Obama at its head, expects you to swallow their vision of morality and cooperate in what they feel is okay, despite the basic truth of a God they also claim to follow and Natural Law. 

Fortunately, most Americans recognize that using taxpayer dollars to fund abortions is a gross violation of the First Amendment. A 2009 Quinnipac poll found that 72 percent of all voters opposed public funding of the procedure. 

Unfortunately, these 72 percent are not driving the Democratic platform and apparently have no voice in the Obama administration.

"I'm pro-choice" Obama said when he was once asked if he supports abortion in all situations, including late-term. 

If Americans reelect Obama, they can expect to see an expansion of practices that a whopping 72 percent of them agree are wrong. Americans will see less freedom of religion and conscience as the Democrats driving the country increasingly dictate what America's guiding moral principles will be. 

In that case, tragically, Americans will be getting the government they deserve.
