In the course of his lengthy acceptance speech this evening, Sen. Barack Obama devoted only five lines to the issues of marriage and abortion, but he made clear he continues to hold liberal positions on both.
The Democrat's suggestion for reducing the number of abortions: Reduce the number of unwanted pregnancies. But he made no mention of his promise to sign the so-called Freedom of Choice Act that would erase all federal, state and local restrictions on abortion.
While Obama suggested to 80,000 supporters at Denver's Invesco Field at Mile High that his support of the gay agenda is simply about issues such as hospital visitation, elsewhere he has said he would repeal the federal Defense of Marriage Act, the law that protects marriage from redefinition.
