Somebody needs to find out what Joe Biden said in 2002 about the federal Born Alive Infant Protection Act that he supported and Obama rejected (the state version).
Looks like Biden is pro-abortion, but opposes PBA.

Biden is super pro abortion, do not be fooled. He pledges to pick judges who will uphold Roe v wade. Pure litmus test.
“A Senate amendment to protect infants born alive during abortion was offered by then-Sen. Rick Santorum (R-Pa.) in 2001. It passed the Senate 98-0 with all current Democratic presidential hopefuls who were in the Senate at the time voting in favor, including Sens. Hillary Rodham Clinton (N.Y.), Chris Dodd (Conn.), Joseph Biden (Del.) and then-Sen. John Edwards (N.C.).”
A 0% rating from the NRTL speaks for itself.
Perhaps explains why Obama was so strongly against saving infants born alive. He was trying to prove that he was the most pro-death. And it worked! Just a few years later he runs the Dem party!
