Video:Pro Life supporters interrupt Obama speech at Notre Dame

Obama is a pro abortion extremist. This is the man who voted against the Born-Alive Infants Protection Act when it was in the Illinois state legislature and who overturned the Mexico City policy three days after he took office. In addition he has decided to fund abortions in foreign countries with American tax dollars. Finally he has stated that he wouldn't want any daughter of his who made a mistake to be "punished" with a child.
Obama professes himself as being opposed to torture yet is an ardent supporter of the torture of the innocent unborn child in the womb. Just visualize the agony suffered by the defenseless child in its mother’s womb as it struggles against the abortionists forceps and the scissors and the high powered suction tube. What a hypocrite.

Excerpt from text of Notre Dame's honorary degree to Barack Obama

He now organizes a larger community, bringing to the world stage a renewed American dedication to diplomacy and dialogue with all nations and religions committed to human rights and the global common good.

Obama has trampled on the human rights of the innocent unborn child. Yet an ostensibly Catholic institution awards him an honorary degree for upholding human rights. Notre Dame has disgraced itself. The words Notre Dame translated into English mean Our Lady. This is an insult to the Mother of God.

Limerick: Dell workers will get EU funding but important to wait until full extent of job losses are known–Colm Burke MEP

The following is a statement issued by FG MEP Colm Burke in relation to the Dell workers:

I have learned from the EU Commission that funding will be made available to the Dell workers in Limerick but that the application for funding should not be made until the full extent of the job losses becomes clear. I will be attending a public meeting tonight (Friday 10th April) with the Dell workers. It is vitally important that we maximise the number of people that benefit from this funding. The real extent of the job losses caused by the down-sizing of the Dell plant will not be known until later in the year when the knock-on effect on downstream industries is clear. These people will also be able to benefit from the funding but only if the Government includes them in the application.Funding can be made available to workers in a region when more than 1,000 direct and indirect jobs are lost as a result of changing trade patterns. The funding is available under the European Globalisation Adjustment Fund (EGF) which aims to help workers made redundant as a result of changing global trade patterns to find another job as quickly as possible.

I have been previously been advised by the EU Commissioner for Employment, Social Affairs and Equal Opportunities Vladamir Špilda that any application for EU funding on behalf of the Dell workers in Limerick who are losing their jobs would be looked at “favourably”. In addition I have been liaising with the European Commission to determine the appropriateness of the fund for certain cases in Ireland and I have been informed that there is enough money on the EU side to help Irish workers once the Government agrees to match the funding”.
The fund is essential to help the former Dell workers and those in places like Banta-Donnelly re-enter the workforce and contribute to bringing Ireland out of the recession”.

Obama overturns Mexico City Policy -US tax dollars to fund foreign abortions

President Obama-the most pro-abortion president in the history of the US- has reversed President George W. Bush’s ban on federal funding for international groups that promote or perform abortions. Now US tax payers will fund the destruction of the unborn in foreign lands.

The ban is known as the Mexico City Policy because former Republican President Ronald Reagan first introduced it at a UN conference there in 1984. It was overturned by President Bill Clinton in 1993 and then reinstated by President Bush in 2001.

Obama's agenda includes the repeal of the Hyde Amendment, which prohibits taxpayer funding of abortion in the US.

Barack Obama has signed the order to shut Guantanamo on the basis that it is an affront to American values and the Geneva Conventions. He is concerned with the human rights of prisoners in Guantanamo. Yet he expresses a callous disregard for the human rights of the unborn child in the womb. He has sanctioned the provision of American tax-payers money to kill the most vulnerable-those who cannot speak for themselves.

Obama has pledged to sign the Freedom of Choice Act (FOCA) and other pro-abortion rights laws. FOCA would abolish existing minimal state and federal restrictions on abortion and would even threaten the rights of Catholic hospitals to refuse to perform abortions.
