The Biggest Skeleton In Obama's Closet
The other day I mentioned an ad featuring Gianna Jessen, a young woman who survived a botched abortion 31 years ago. As a survivor of abortion, Gianna's perspective regarding Barak Obama's stance on the issue is unique. Here, Gianna talks more about her remarkable life and her efforts to shine a light on Barak Obama's reprehensible positions on infants born alive after abortion:
You may have read here about Obama's shameful legislative record regarding proposals to protect infants born alive after botched abortions. Put simply, Obama has voted repeatedly to have those babies killed rather than pass a law to protect them. Obama's position is that such a law might hypothetically present a legal challenge to Roe. V. Wade.
I've quoted his staggeringly mind-numbing legalize on the topic before. Here it is again. This is verbatim; the very pearls of wisdom from the lips of the Chosen One:
"There was some suggestion that we might be able to craft something that might meet constitutional muster with respect to caring for fetuses or children who were delivered in this fashion. Unfortunately, this bill goes a little bit further, and so … this is probably not going to survive constitutional scrutiny. Number one, whenever we define a pre-viable fetus as a person that is protected by the equal protection clause or other elements in the Constitution, what we’re really saying is, in fact, that they are persons that are entitled to the kinds of protections that would be provided to a — a child, a nine-month-old — child that was delivered to term. That determination, then, essentially, if it was accepted by a court, would forbid abortions to take place. I mean, it — it would essentially bar abortions, because the equal protection clause does not allow somebody to kill a child, and if this is a child, then this would be an antiabortion statute."Um.... WTF? You Chicago lawyers can speak at least a little English, right?
If abortion matters to you, and if you have a hard time supporting a candidate like Obama who's stance on this issue is the most radical of any Democratic party candidate ever, you should visit BornAliveTruth.org for more information.
