Interesting that Democrats value murdering babies in the womb above everything else. How could any religious person vote for that?
That sounds like hopeful news. If they care about it enough to look it up, then maybe once they find out he supports abortion it will make them reject him. I hope McCain is planning on making a lot of noise about abortion during the campaign since it is one of the few positions where he has been consistently conservative and different than Obama so it will give people a clear choice.

Although McCain's thinking is about stem-cell research is mistaken and confused, when it came time to adopt the Indian baby from the orphanage what did he do? I am fully aware of McCain's shortcomings, but whatever you think of the McCains, to adopt that child the way they did is pro-life.
I should add that many in the pro-life movement are Catholics. One should not forget that Cindy McCain received that child from one of Mother Theresa's orphanages. If this fact were more widely known it would certainly win some votes among Catholics, who pretty much compose the proverbial "swing vote."
BTW, are there not some pics of Cindy McCain with Mother Theresa? Putting them out there would be smaltzy and a little manipulative, but they certainly would present a great contrast to the O-man's spiritual mentors: Mother Theresa vs Pastor "G-D America" Wright. McCain would probably think it's undignified, but the sooner he realizes he's in for a fight the better. This is a presidential election, so no more "above the fray" BS. Putting out a pic of Cindy and Mother Theresa would be a little manipulative, but it would also point out a substantive difference between the candidates. That would be completely fair.
It's not just that Obama is pro-abortion. If some poor wretched creature survives the abortion attempt, Obama would still allow you to "off" it. That is so sickening, I can't imagine that anyone could allow it. Yet Obama would. You would think some sort of instinct would kick in to save an abortion survivor, but not in Obama's case.
When you look at the range of issues and attitudes they support, it's the Obamas whose souls are sick, not America's. If they want to "cure America's soul," let them cure themselves first.
very clever idea..
Something that can fill time during those boring conference calls!!!
Nice to “see” you again, LL. Hope all is well with you.
Jill Stanek lays out very well how Obama first said he didn't think the born-alive infant met the 14th Amendment's qualifications as a "person" in the Constitutional sense of the word (what qualifications??) and then he changed his tune and said he would have "supported the Born-Alive Infant Act in Illinois if it had had the same provisions as the Federal Act, which stated that it would not impact Roe vs Wade."
First of all, when the Act was re-introduced into the IL legislature in a form identical to the Federal act, he blocked it from being voted upon, and furthermore, there was nothing, no clause or disclaimer of codicil, in the Federal act that stated that it would have no impact on Roe vs Wade.
Yet even Barbara Boxer, a reliable abortion enthusiast, voted in favor of the Born Alive Infants Act.
Obama is glib. But if you follow his position, he gives you whiplash.
