It is well known by Pro-Lifers but not by the general public. The MSM has done everything to keep it that way. We must help get the fact out that Barack Obama strenuously defended the indefensible at least three times.
The procedure is frequently called Live birth abortion but it is not really an abortion at all:
... doctors do not attempt to kill the baby in the uterus. The goal is simply to prematurely deliver a baby who dies during the birth process or soon afterward. [1]
Obama refused as an Illinois state senator to support legislation to protect babies who survived late-term abortions because he did not want to concede — as he explained in a cold-blooded speech on the Illinois Senate floor — that these babies, fully outside their mothers’ wombs, with their hearts beating and lungs heaving, were in fact “persons. [2]
On the Illinois Senate floor, Obama was the only senator to speak against the baby-protecting bills. [2]
Obama fought it for three years as a Illinois state senator, even after it passed 98-0 in the US Senate as the Born Alive Infants Protection Act. [3]
Barack Obama fought it even after NARAL released a statement that said, Consistent with our position last year, NARAL does not oppose passage of the Born Alive Infants Protection Act. [4]
Barack Obama goes way beyond choice on abortion. This is outright murder that he wanted paid for with our tax dollars. Voters must take into account just how radical Obama is when every democrat and even NARAL went against him. Voters must soberly consider where Obama wants to lead this Nation.
Obama has repeatedly proven that he does not respect the life of born children. How can we honestly expect him to respect ours.
Americans must know about his repeatedly horrendous public policy judgments. Perhaps then they will finally realize how wrong for America Barack Obama would be as president.

Allowing that baby to live would be “too much of a burden on the woman” according to Barry.
That is exactly what he said in a floor speech.
Thanks Marvin.
I’m PINGing my list.
Why did no one ask Obama how can he sleep at night?
