FRC Action President Tony Perkins is calling on Sen. Barack Obama to clarify his statements about when life begins. Perkins and his infant son are featured in a new TV commercial, which is airing in Cincinnati, Atlanta and Dallas.
During a Father’s Day speech in Chicago, Obama said: “We need fathers to recognize that responsibility doesn't just end at conception.”
Perkins, a father of five, said he couldn't help but notice the irony.
"Senator Obama has voted for numerous laws supporting abortion in his time in the U.S. Senate and the Illinois Legislature,” he said. “He is the co-sponsor of the federal Freedom of Choice Act, a sweeping piece of legislation that will legalize partial-birth abortion and overturn virtually all federal and state limitations on abortion.
"Senator Obama understands that a father's responsibility does not end at conception, but does he understand that it begins there as well?"
