President Obama says "each of us is 'wonderfully made' in the image of God"

In his speech at the National Prayer Breakfast this morning, President Barack Obama affirmed a number of prolife sentiments. 

“(F)or the killing of the innocent is never fulfilling God’s will; in fact, it’s the ultimate betrayal of God’s will.

Today, we profess the principles we know to be true. We believe that each of us is “wonderfully made” in the image of God. We, therefore, believe in the inherent dignity of every human being -- dignity that no earthly power can take away.”
 
He says that killing the innocent is wrong because every human being has an inherent dignity.  That's basically the bedrock principle of the prolife movement.

Despite saying something which could have easily been overheard at a prolife event, President Obama remains committed to abortion on demand, as evidenced by his recent statement on the anniversary of Roe v. Wade.
