President Biden was blasted for crediting his natural rights to being a “child of God” in defense of abortion, with one critic saying he “just made the case” against the practice.
Biden made the remarks on Wednesday as he discussed the leak of a draft of a Supreme Court decision that would overturn Roe v. Wade and recalled his opposition to Judge Robert Bork’s nomination to the Supreme Court in 1987.
“Bork believed the only reason you had any inherent rights was because the government gave them to you,” Biden said.
The president then pointed out that in his questioning of Bork as the chairman of the Senate Judiciary Committee, he said: “I believe I have the rights that I have not because the government gave it to me, which you believe, but because I’m just a child of God; I exist.”
Bork was nominated by President Ronald Reagan in 1987 to succeed Justice Lewis Powell, who had announced his retirement from the high court. His nomination was rejected by the Senate, and ultimately Anthony Kennedy was confirmed to the seat. --->READ MORE HERE

Conservatives on Twitter were appalled Wednesday after President Joe Biden defended abortion by appealing to his natural rights as a "child of God."
One claimed that the president "just made the case against abortion" in his efforts to stump for it.
‘Devout Catholic’ Biden’s latest rhetorical blunder happened while talking to the press Wednesday when he elaborated more on his stance on the leaked Supreme Court opinion draft that seems poised to overturn Roe v. Wade.
"This reminds me of the debate I had with Robert Bork," he said, claiming, "Bork believed the only reason you had any inherent rights is because the government gave them to you." The president recalled his 1987 comments to Bork "when I was questioning him as chairman," which seemed a little muddled.
"I said, ‘I believe the rights that I have, not because the government gave them to me, which you believe, but because I’m just a child of God, I exist. I delegated by joining this union, to delegate oblig– some rights I have to the government for social good."
While parts of his response were unintelligible, conservatives on Twitter slammed Biden for daring to say he believes in rights given to him "as a child of God" to justify his defense of abortion. --->READ MORE HEREFollow links below to related stories:
