CNN's "Compassion Forum": Obama feigns pro-life sentiment

"Compassion Forum," broadcast by CNN and hosted by Messiah College
"When asked about when human life begins, Obama looked confused and said, "This is something that I have not, I think, come to a firm resolution on. I think it's very hard to know what that means, when life begins. Is it when a cell separates? Is it when the soul stirs? What I know...is that there is something extraordinarily powerful about potential life..." Later on, Obama, who described himself as "a devout Christian" claimed that on abortion, "...we want to help...people avoid having to make this difficult choice. That nobody is pro-abortion. Abortion is never a good thing." Unfortunately for Senator Obama, who has voted against every limit on abortion since being elected to the U.S. Senate, his actions have spoken far louder than his words."
