Barack Obama on "Every person has worth" -- Really?

Barack Obama on Every Person Has Worth   President Barack Obama was lecturing Africans about human rights in a speech in Addis Ababa, Ethiopia. Mr. Obama's entreaties about human rights seem hollow as a third video exposing Planned Parenthood selling body parts was released. 

 To be fair, Mr. Obama qualified that all persons were born equal.  But President Obama's rhetoric does not meet his reality or his record.  While he was a state legislator in Illinois, Barack Obama  opposed a ban on partial birth abortions as well as being the only politician opposed to the Born-Alive Protection Act. 

 For the unborn, perhaps "Every person has worth" takes on another meaning.  

  The worth of unborn babies   

 The Center for Medical Progress expose videos have been shunned by the Lamestream Media as it challenges their progressive pieties.  Many others who have seen the videos, including some pro-choice people, have been revolted by prospects of Planned Parenthood profiting on baby parts. 

 As a society, we need to gestate a respect for life and  come to grips who who is a person who deserves dignity.  Does this include the unborn?  How about the elderly who no longer can contribute to society and are persons who can be framed as a costly medical burden?

These comments were brought to the attention of a supervisor. Subsequently, Smith was demoted from a £35,000 managerial post to a £21,000 position. The only reason that he was not fired outright was because of his long record of service.

The fracas over Adrian Smith’s Facebook posting raises some interesting issues...
