I felt like I was kicked in the stomach when Obama said he was against torture of our enemies....
Because torturing percieved enemies is such a christian thing to do? How low have we sunk when the very people who claim that they are the guardians of morality are trying to find new and creative ways to justify torture? All the while the people who condemn torture and fight for the human rights of all people are villified and called immoral?
what does he think babies go through,
No matter how hard you try you simply cannot make a valid comparison here.
as they are burned to death by a saline solution,
Does your face or eyes burn when you cry? Do you "burn to death" when you go swimming in the ocean? Because that is what saline solution is... salt water, the very same thing as human tears and by far the largest component of human blood.
and have their brains scrambled with an instrument until they die?
Except that's not how abortions are performed. In fact at the point when 98% of abortions are performed the isn't any instrument small enough to "scramble" the tiy collection on cells, nor is there a brain to "scramble". "They" don't "go through" anything because "they" are not anything more at that point that a cluster of non-sentient self replicting cells.
Water boarding doesn't sound like that kind of torture, does it,
But it is. Repeatedly drowning someone to point of near death is torture, a fact that you would likely agree with if forced to undergo such method against your will.
and certainly doesn't kill like abortion does!
There's a young man, a taxi driver, from Afghanistan named Dilawar who would likey disagree with you, but he can't BECAUSE WE FUCKING TORTURED HIM TO DEATH! TO DEATH! All in the pursuit of information that we knew for a fact he didn't have. In fact there is at least a hundred others that would also disagree, but they too are dead. And what of the countless others who have been physically or mentally scarred for the rest of their lives? Oh, that right, I forgot... They are just brown people from across the ocean, and muslim to boot. It's not as if they are real people like christians are.
And these innocent babies aren't even our enemies!
Nor are they babies yet. Nor do people normally undergo abortions unwillingly, unlike torture which is, by it's very nature, forced upon people. Also it is neither your place, nor the place of the government to decide what anyone will do with his or her body.
I wonder what your opinion on abortion would be if you knew for a fact that the child would be raised to be a Muslim or Atheist, or if you were somehow able to know that the child would grow up to be a gay man, lesbian woman, or god forbid, a liberal? What would your opinion on abortion be then?
