The original ad can be found here:
Here is the Response by Senator Barrack Obama:
Response by Barrack Obama to BornAliveTruth.org ad
There are a number of other threads on this. But I personally feel that there should be focus on the fact that Senator Obama is attacking a woman with Cerebal Palsy in his response ad.
Why is this important? Because Gianna is an abortion survivor. She survived a Saline Abortion. She has Cerebal Palsy as a result of that Saline Abortion.
So what does Gianna, Cerebal Palsy, and BornAliveTruth has to do with Senator Obama? Senator Obama repeatedly voted against the Born Alive Protection Act in Illinois.
Gianna, being an abortion survivor who suffers because of that abortion (her bout with Cerebal Palsy is a direct cause of the Saline Abortion) is outspoken about victims of abortion like herself and she would want to spare them any needless suffering and death through the denial of medical care.
Senator Obama has chosen to call the ad sleazy. Since Gianna and Jill Stanek created the ad, that term refers to their work.
Additionally, Senator Obama deceives people by claiming this is the fault of Senator John McCain of the ad. The fault (or reason the as was made) was that Senator Obama voted against saving the lives of babies and not protecting those lives.
It is sort of like a man walking into a store and shooting everyone in the store, and then blaming the people for having had to shot everyone to death.
That is more the reasoning for the response by Senator Obama. He apparently is afraid of the truth of this ad, and he must kill everyone who might be infected with this ad or somehow indoctrinate them to his philosophy that babies are for killing -- if one choses to...
To me, the issue is about Senator Obama attacking an abortion survivor who has Cerebal Palsy. That is what this fuss is all about. It can be painted other ways and twisted in other directions.
But without acknowledging that Gianna has Cerebal Palsy as a result of her Saline Abortion, one will not understand why she is so committed to saving other babies.
It is also why she is fighting Senator Obama in the good fight (which he calls sleazy, as he does not know how to battle the truth.
There is one more link that is worthwhile: Gianna Jessen on the Hannity & Colmes Show (Fox News) [Via YouTube.com website]
She is fighting for babies in similar situations by exposing Senator Obama as one who backs the killing of such babies.
She just wishes to expose the truth. For once Senator Obama become President Obama (if he does), he might enforce Executive orders and nominate judges with his philosophy towards murdering innocent babies.
Barack Obama's attacks on her prove that he is nothing more than the evil antithesis to all that is sacred.
Barack Hussein Obama is evil and hatred personified.
The young lady volunteered to enter the arena of politics. If she didn’t want to be attacked she should have stayed home.
She is more than up to this, after all, she’s survived an attack on her life.
With respect to you, I think these kids of ‘defenses’ belittle her.
Dag, I agree with both of you.
I don’t.
Senator, what is your chief regret in your congressional career?
He answered (paraphrased):
My chief regret is that I did not stand along if necessary to kill the Congress' attempt to (give Terri Schiavo her 14th Amendment due process right to life).
He is the only one to stand on the Illinois State Senate floor for the effort to kill the Born Alive Infant Protection Bill.
Barack Obama is for killing people.
I guess that's just fitting for a Marxist.
“Blessed are those who are persecuted because of righteousness, for theirs is the kingdom of heaven. Blessed are you when people insult you, persecute you and falsely say all kinds of evil against you because of me. Rejoice and be glad, because great is your reward in heaven, for in the same way they persecuted the prophets who were before you.”
This beatitude does NOT say that those who persecute and slander the righteous have any excuse for their conduct. But it does say that those who are persecuted for the sake of righteousness will be blessed.
So, yes, I think it’s right both to say that Obama is a dirty slanderer for permitting that ad, but that Gianna has someone who has already found a blessing in suffering, and can probably find a further blessing in being attacked like that, since she is doing it for the sake of babies whom Obama would prefer to kill.
I think you meant kinds versus kids.
I understand your point, however, Obama is trying to throw the blame game at McCain, and bruth over Gianna Jessen and Jill Stanek.
I find the story behind Gianna compelling. If people learn of her story and how she has overcome adversity (1. just being alive; and 2. the problems of cerebal palsy), they might realize what the good fight really is. And Gianna and Jill are part of that fight.
WorldNetDaily came out with an article on September 20 that I consider may be similar to this:
Obama ad goes to war with abortion survivor [posted on Freerepublic]
The WND article is at:
Obama ad goes to war with abortion survivor
I guess you can consider it to belittle Gianna.
But a warrior who has made it through a battle sometimes carries the scars. In the case of Gianna Jessen, she carries the Saline Abortion scars of her battle surviving the abortion. It is my opinion that cerebal palsy is a battle scare that people like Planned Parenthood would want people to forget about...

My wife has cerebral palsy. She uses crutches to get around. In fact, she used one of her crutches to help pound in the McCain/Palin yard sign out front. She’s my hero and the love of my life. You’ll find her pic at the bottom of my FR home page ;o)
A BEAUTIFUL lady with such a lovely smile.
Indeed, you are a lucky man!!
Has anyone on the Left stood in defense of Gianna Jessen?
I wonder how many resent the fact she’s alive to tell her story?
