Cop out
QandO —
I don’t care what side of the abortion debate you come down on, this is simply a cop out: Asked at what point a baby gets “human rights,” Obama, who strongly supports abortion rights, said: “… whether you’re looking at it from a theological perspective or a scientific perspective, answering that question with specificity … is above my pay grade.”No. It’s not. Answering that question is how one arrives, at least partially, at their position of being for or against abortion. For a legislator who has passed ...

“That’s Above My Pay Grade”

... It could very well be that Obama has just lost a cause he already lost when he started to pursue it; when asked when a baby gets “human rights” he responded with “whether you’re looking at it from a theological perspective or a scientific perspective, answering that question with specificity … is above my pay grade.” ...

Despite Assurances Of Fairness, NY Times Lies
Pirate's Cove —
... Now we know why the Obama campaign has been so reluctant to put their candidate on the same stage as John McCain. The difference between the two last night was striking. While Senator Obama punted on questions of great importance to the American people, and sidestepped even simple questions about whether the United States must defeat evil, John McCain offered the straight talk voters expect of a candidate for President. Senator McCain’s responses reflected his long record of bipartisanship, the anecdotes accumulated from a lifetime of service to this ...

A curious line from Fred Thompson's speech:
We need a President, and Vice President, who will take the federal bureaucracy by the scruff of the neck and give it a good shaking. And my friends we need a President who doesn't think that the protection of the unborn or a newly born baby is above his pay grade.

We think this is a reference to this from Obama:
Asked at what point a baby gets "human rights," Obama, who strongly ...

... Of course, the "pay grade" remark is a reference to Obama's visit to Rick Warren's Saddleback Forum, in which he responded to a question about when human rights begin by saying: "whether you're looking at it from a theological perspective or a scientific perspective, answering that question with specificity ... is above my pay grade." ...
