Obama says pointed abortion query “above his pay grade”
Obama and McCain, both going after the evangelical vote, answered some questions from noted evangelical pastor Rick Warren. Why did they do this?
Both candidates were vying for the “faith vote,” in particular the one in four U.S. adults who count themselves as evangelical.
Thanks for answering my question highlighting tool. I wonder how McCain answered a question about when a person becomes a person?
He [McCain] said a baby’s human rights began “at the moment of conception … I have a 25-year pro-life record.”
Wow! Thanks for that answer again highlight tool. Now, I bet you that Obama gave a better answer than McCain did. I mean, come on! Obama is fresh and young and is all about change and all that jazz. Plus, unlike all those moronic republicans, he can talk. Oh how he talks! So, how did he answer this simple question Mr. highlight tool?
“… whether you’re looking at it from a theological perspective or a scientific perspective, answering that question with specificity … is above my pay grade.”
[Crickets chirping]
That has to be a misprint. Right? Highlight tool - are you there?
Wow, I guess Senator Obama has no opinion about such a fundamental question as to when a person becomes a person. Doesn’t that strike you as odd?
FOR ALL THE PEOPLE THAT DON’T UNDERSTAND ……………………..WHEN OBAMA SAID IT WAS ABOVE HIS PAY GRADE……………….THAT WAS A FIGURE OF SPEECH WHICH MEANT………………AS FAR AS ABORTION FROM A MORAL STAND POINT AND WHEN LIFE TRULY BEGINS, THAT IS FOR GOD TO JUDGE…………….. IT IS A FIGURE OF SPEECH, HE’S SAYING THAT I CAN NOT JUDGE WHETHER A WOMAN HAVING AN ABORTION IS RIGHT OR WRONG ……………..ONLY GOD CAN JUDGE HER……………SERIOUS PEOPLE YOU GUYS TAKE EVERYTHING SOOOOOOOOOOOO LITERAL. I HONESTLY THINK THATS WHY A LOT OF PEOPLE DON’T LIKE HIM BECAUSE THEY DON’T UNDERSTAND HIM. HE ACTUALLY TRIES TO EXPLAIN SOMETHING TO PEOPLE FROM A REAL STAND POINT BUT WE ARE ALL STILL SO DELUDED FROM LISTENING TO BS ALL THESE YEARS THAT WE DON’T UNDERSTAND SOMEONE WHEN THEY ARE TRYING TO BE HONEST AND FORTHRIGHT.
