Probably because he’s the most fanatical pro-aboprtion president in history.
WASHINGTON — A new national poll conducted by Angus Reid Public Opinion finds relatively few Americans agree with the pro-abortion position taken by President Barack Obama favor keeping abortions legal in all cases throughout pregnancy.
The polling firm released the results of a new survey today and found just 21 percent of Americans believe abortion should be permitted in all cases. Another 18 percent said abortions should be permitted but with the same restrictions on them that are currently in place.
Meanwhile, 13 percent held the pro-life view that all abortions should be illegal and 27 percent took a position opposing 98% of all abortions, saying they should only be legal in the very rare cases such as rape, incest or saving the life of the mother. Another 8 percent say abortions should be legal but subject to more strict limits than are currently in place.
The survey showed women were more likely than men to take a position favoring legal abortions, but within the margin of error — making it so men and women essentially have very similar views on abortion. While 12 percent of Americans are unsure of their abortion position in the poll, women are more unsure — 14-9 percent — than men.
