“Obama has spent a scant two years in the Senate but served eight years at the Illinois capitol in Springfield.

During that time, Obama voted AGAINST (emphasis mine) a bill that received national attention and would protect babies born alive after botched abortions.”

Obama wanted born-alive babies to be left to die on a shelf.

Yes, that was stated in the RealClearPolitics piece I posted on Obama and abortion.

"Obama's record on abortion is extreme. He opposed the ban on partial-birth abortion -- a practice a fellow Democrat, the late Daniel Patrick Moynihan, once called 'too close to infanticide.' Obama strongly criticized the Supreme Court decision upholding the partial-birth ban. In the Illinois state Senate, he opposed a bill similar to the Born Alive Infant Protection Act, which prevents the killing of infants mistakenly left alive by abortion. And now Obama has oddly claimed he would not want his daughters to be 'punished with a baby' because of a crisis pregnancy -- hardly a welcoming attitude toward new life."

If this one thing alone doesn’t speak volumes about who and what Barack Obama is, I have no idea what might.

I just can’t help but think of that poor young lady that wrote a book about her own life - she survived an abortion and later grew up to be a beautiful woman, although she has some serious medical issues. Dobson had her on his program; as well, he had several adults who were the products of rape.

And I just saw a special today about premature newborns, as young as thirty or thirty-two weeks. They were referred to as babies, worthy of care--other "fetuses" of the same age would killed under the aegis of "late-term abortion"--but I don't expect the pro-abort crowd to pause for one second to consider their twisted ontological position in light of that.

Surely evil does exist, and it is recognizable. The Lord is aware; he is not silent.
