The Obama Campaign can deny all it wants that the rookie senator has no pro-abortion litmus test for U.S. Supreme Court nominees, but his own words from a recent email sure sound like such:
“While I have no litmus test for judges,” wrote the most liberal member of the Senate, “my bottom line is confidence that a judicial nominee will respect the constitutionally protected rights of all Americans and resist the temptation to substitute personal ideology for legal reasoning. I believe, however, that a judicial nominee with a history of undermining settled law like Roe v. Wade deserves greater scrutiny."
Abortion’s greatest political champion then added: "Nominees to the federal bench who are out-of-step with mainstream America should not be confirmed. That is why in the past I have opposed the nominations of Supreme Court Justices Roberts and Alito."
The definition of a "litmus test" is a question asked of a potential candidate that determines whether or not the nominating official procedes. Sure sounds like Obama intends to dip a strip against pro-life jurists, huh?
