In a tongue in cheek statement almost worthy of a snarky blogger he said:
WASHINGTON – U.S.
Representative Lou Barletta, PA-11, congratulated the White House of President
Obama – who supports partial-birth abortions and voted against born-alive failed
abortion infant protection legislation on the grounds that a fetus is not a
viable life – for finally recognizing that life begins at conception.
Tuesday, it was reported that the White House
is now asking pregnant mothers to identify their unborn babies when requesting
tours of the president’s house.
In an e-mail to offices, the White House
stated, “Crazy as it may sound, you MUST
include the baby in the overall count of guests in the tour.” [Emphasis original
to e-mail.]
The e-mail gives details on how to include the
unborn child’s first name (“Baby”), birthday (even though the baby has not yet
been born), gender, and social security number.
“The White House of President Obama – who voted
against bills protecting unborn children from the horror of abortion – enacted a
policy identifying babies still in the womb when they come to visit the White
House. If an unborn child is considered alive for the purposes of a White House
tour, clearly an unborn child should be considered alive when pro-life
legislation is considered,” Rep. Barletta said.
“I’d like to commend President Obama for
finally acknowledging that life begins at conception.”
The White House has thousands of visitors every day and that people sign up for tours months in advance, often canceling and rescheduling. By having a placeholder ready for a baby-to-be, it prevents delays when people might otherwise show up for the tour with a child not previously listed.
"This policy was implemented so if you want to bring your children on a tour, we can account for them."
