Here's a quick little video for you:

Here's a summary of Obama's stance on abortion. (Hint: He's consistently and firmly pro-choice and has made that clear throughout his political career)
http://www.ontheissues.org/Social/Barack_Obama_Abortion.htm
Sample: "For almost a decade, Obama has been a leader in the Illinois legislature in the battle to protect a woman's right to choose and promote equal economic rights and opportunities."
As for the Compassion Forum, I don't know why Obama didn't go; perhaps he had perfectly valid reasons. You don't need to go to a forum to prove that you hold a particular position. It's not some litmus test, though it sounds like you're trying to make it into one, twisting it into him being "afraid" to take a stand. What utter garbage that is from you.
