Obama Hits Human Trafficking, But Canceled Bishops’ Grant Over Abortion

Have you noticed how Barry's zeal for abortion seems to impact so many of his decisions?

In a speech today Tuesday), President Barack Obama went after human trafficking, saying it is a priority issue of his administration.

Yet, the Obama Administration put abortion ahead of human trafficking twice — by denying a grant to the Catholic bishops to help victims because they wouldn’t promote abortion and by refusing to investigate how the Planned Parenthood abortion business covered up potential cases of sex trafficking.

“It ought to concern every person, because it’s a debasement of our common humanity,” Obama said in his comments today. “It ought to concern every community, because it tears at the social fabric. It ought to concern every business, because it distorts markets. It ought to concern every nation, because it endangers public health and fuels violence and organized crime. I’m talking about the injustice, the outrage, of human trafficking, which must be called by its true name—modern slavery.”

“Our fight against human trafficking is one of the great human rights causes of our time, and the United States will continue to lead it,” Obama added.

Obama considers human trafficking such a great human rights cause that his administration denied the nation’s Catholic bishops a grant for a program helping sex trafficking victims because it would not refer for abortions.
