Obama's 'present' danger
World Net Daily ^ | 1/9/2008 | Jill Stanek

The mainstream media makes much hay about conservatives being split between candidates, but none whatsoever about liberals being split – particularly abortion proponents.

Most notably, Planned Parenthood affiliates are divided between Barack Obama and Hillary Clinton.

The rift was readily demonstrated in New Hampshire last weekend where the fight really took off over which of the two was more ardently pro-abortion.

(snip)

Illinois PP and NOW now say Obama's voting "present" was a tactic they devised to show liberal senators a way out who were squirmy on voting to support aborting babies alive and letting them die in hospital soiled utility rooms, which is what a vote against Born Alive meant.

(As an aside, Illinois PP now supports Obama and IL NOW supports Clinton. As I said, love it.)

While the MSM plays up the wide open Republican primary and "split" between the candidates, it is also clear that there are significant splits among the Democrats favorite constituencies too. Having an argument "over which of the two was more ardently pro-abortion" cannot help either Hillary or Obama in the general election.

I thought all democratic candidates had to ardently support abortion.

Yes, and the PP/NOW extremists are forcing them to "ardently" argue over who is moreso!

... Obama's voting "present" was a tactic they devised to show liberal senators a way out who were squirmy on voting to support aborting babies alive and letting them die in hospital soiled utility rooms, which is what a vote against Born Alive meant.

Read that over and over ... real slow. It is appalling and disgusting that the power of the abortion lobby (without embarrassment) has so influenced an entire mainstream political party to so disregard human life. IMO, this will come back to haunt them.

Despite all the ducking and weaving and confusion over double negatives (voting against banning a procedure means you favor the procedure) I think that I have it figured out. Obama is the winner of the Heisman Trophy for baby killing.

Hillary has no problem with using a pair of scissors to open up the skull of a baby, even a full-term baby, just as long as that baby has some body part still inside his or her mother. Once the skull is perforated, sucking out the brain, umm, I mean the "extraneous gray tissue" is her approved final step.

Obama is also okay with this gruesome procedure. But he takes it one step further. If, for some inexplicable reason (an incompetent abortionist, perhaps) the baby actually manages to avoid the sharp instruments and suction devices and escapes completely out of the mother's body and into the operating room, Obama still does not wish to confer the Constitutional rights of citizenship to this living, breathing, sentient human being. He believes, as only the very best liberals do, that if that woman wanted an abortion, then by-golly, she's going to get one. His solution: take the baby (I mean the "inconvenient extraneous material") to a different room (perhaps a dirty area of the laundry room) and leave it there for several hours, unattended, before disposing of it. (One could say, "after it dies" but that would presume that it had lived, a fact which would be legally problematic to admit, since the Constitution would then protect the living baby from these "people.")

I believe that Mrs. Clinton draws the line at attempting to perforate the skull and suck out the brain. If the kid is squirmy and quick and can avoid the scissors and the vacuum, Hillary will welcome the child into the community. It takes a village, if ya know what I'm talkin' about. I wonder if this chokes her up enough to shed one of those crocodile tears.
