Obama Campaign Asks Court to Disallow Jessen Ad
A Semi-News/Semi-Satire from AzConservative ^ | 1 Nov 2008 | John Semmens

Posted on 11/02/2008 4:53:07 PM PST by John Semmens

Obama campaign spokesman, Damien Thorn, announced that he is requesting that all campaign ads featuring comments by abortion survivor Gianna Jessen be pulled because “she lacks ‘standing.’”

Thorn said the move was inspired by Judge R. Barclay Surrick’s ruling that Philip Berg lacked “standing” to challenge whether Senator Barack Obama meets the citizenship qualification to be president.

“Jessen shouldn’t even be here,” Thorn observed. “As Roe vs. Wade established, technically, Jessen has no rights which the law is bound to respect in this regard. It is unfair to Senator Obama that criticism from this quarter may be permitted to undo the efforts from legitimate sources of opinion.”

Obama does not seem to have a high regard for the First Amendment.

So what does this mean? That since Jessen “ wasn't supposed to be here” if she is mugged and the mugger is caught red handed she is not entitled to go to court because she was supposed to be dead but survived a botched abortion?? What an outrage..Is this on video? If so it should be running by the McC campaign NOW on every station...the cheek of this statement is an abomination.

As with any craziness allegedly coming from Obama, it sounded like satire but I still had to double check to make sure.

The campaign spokesman “Damien Thorn” should be a dead giveaway. So, the Devil is on Obama’s side?

“Obama does not seem to have a high regard for the First Amendment”

Think you can say the same thing about his regard for the most defenseless among us.

Is Obama saying, “Gianna Jessen shouldn’t even be here!”?

This is satire but the sad thing is how many times I read an article about outrageous comments by a Dem and I look down to find the “Humor” tag and it’s not there.

Dude, there’s a fine line between satire and just making stuff up. You’re over the line the wrong way. This does nothing but sow confusion on our side.

Hey Bambi, at least she has a birth certificate telling us who she is.

My daughter and I saw Gianna Jessen a month ago. She was great. She spoke very well with the children who saw her. (High school kids)
