When Obama Voted For Infanticide [Perspective for the Anti-Akin Bedwetters]
National Review ^ | 2/9/12 | Andrew McCarthy

Posted on 08/20/2012 7:47:03 AM PDT by SoFloFreeper

... Obama’s abortion extremism is such that, as a state legislator, he opposed protection for — I’ll use his words here — “that fetus, or child — however way you want to say describe it” when, contrary to the wishes of the women involved and their abortionists, there was “movement or some indication that, in fact, they’re not just coming out limp and dead.” Babies were inconveniently being born alive, self-styled health-care providers carted them off to utility rooms where they would be left to die. That is infanticide, plain and simple. In Illinois, people tried to stop this barbarism by supporting “born alive” legislation. Barack Obama fought them all the way.

Memo to the media and the handwringers here on FR: the man who should be under fire for his words and actions on abortion should be Obamugabe, not Akin.

If the standards applied by many FReepers hold true, they apparently want the democrat to win.

Memo to SoFloFreeper: Liberal Democrats, especially those of color, can say the most outrageous things with impunity.

Conservatives (should) always hold themselves and their own to higher standards. Akin needs to go.

Sarah Steelman seems like the most logical replacement.

When it comes to the baby murdering genocidal practice known as abortion, I’ll take someone on the far right extreme of the issue over someone anywhere on the left side of the spectrum of it!!!

So the man made a gaffe. Democrats do daily.

I put your memo in the circular file. Anyone who gives Obamugabe a pass on infanticide needs his head examined.

I went to bed last night hoping some Freepers would grow up and stop with the “He must go” garbage. It appears I was wrong.

I am truly disgusted by these supposed “conservatives”. I sure wouldn’t want any of them in the fox hole with me.

Next time people are here make fun of Obama throwing people under the bus, I will remind them they are worse than he is.

Akin needs to go.

Why? Specifically, what did Akin say that you disagree with or was incorrect? If you are only concerned about the MSM response to what he said, how would you have suggested he handle such a very direct question about abortion in cases of rape?

You aren't the only one to notice the similarities. There were plenty ready to throw Pete Hoekstra under the bus for his asian ad against Debbie Stabenow in Michigan and they became even angrier when he didn't apologize. Today he's the nominee and has a good chance of defeating Stabenow. Pete Hoekstra wasn't my choice but I saw no problem with the ad and I intend to vote for him in November.

It's the MSM that gives Liberal Democrats a pass while harping on Republicans/Conservatives. While we may decry the MSM's double-standard or try to downplay it's influence, unfortunately the masses of average voters are not so in tune with issues and the truth, and will likely fall for whatever tall tale the MSM wants to spin.

Having Akin's comment played over and over during the campaing will have a damaging effect. If he stays on the ticket, we'll see who gets to say "I told you so" in November.

So what would you have said in response to a very direction question about abortion in cases of rape?

I want Claire defeated come November. I will vote for Akin, even though he was not my primary candidate. Akin stuck his foot in his mouth and made the subject about 'legitimate rape' and NOT about abortion. I know so called Christians that call children born out of wedlock bastards. Now I cannot find it Written any place in the Bible that is what God calls children born out of wedlock. Piety is not a pretty picture when it 'naturally' turns people off and running to liberals for cover.

Furthermore 'legitimate rape' is NOT what this election is about and you can better believe the JonStewart media, liberals biggest charity bar none, will take every opportunity to ignore the murdering of the unborn and twit, tweet, facebook and report on 'legitimate rape'.

Call that 'hand-wringing' if you need but reality is reality.
