But why would a man of obvious conviction, such as John Piper, support the candidacy of a man, such as Barack Obama, who has the track record that Mr. Obama has on abortion? Did Mr. Piper expect that Mr. Obamam would change his stance on abortion once he was elected? How naive! Mr. Obama was most coy about any specifics during his campaign, but a bit of diligent research would have shown Mr. Piper what a threat to the freedoms embodied in our Constitution that Mr. Obama and his ideas were. While I admire Mr. Piper for speaking out, I do not praise him for being so naive and gullible as to swallow the lies put forth during the campaign like some giggly schoolgirl who swoons over her rock-star idols. You got what you asked for, Mr. Piper. You say you shed tears of joy on the day of his inauguration? Now shed tears of shame for supporting a man who supports the brutal murder of those 1,000,000 human beings a year. That is what you voted for... And, sadly, a lot more than that.
