Sadly, Obama will never be called on this by anyone in the media.
But then again, Democrats have a death wish. It’s evident by the fact they want to Obama to be president.
“Senator Obama, as a member of the Illinois State Senate, voted in the Judiciary Committee against a law that would provide immediate medical attention to a child born of a failed abortion. He voted against that,” McCain said.
“And then, on the floor of the State Senate, as he did 130 times as a state senator, he voted present,” McCain explained.
“Then there was another bill before the Senate Judiciary Committee in the state of Illinois not that long ago, where he voted against a ban on partial-birth abortion, one of the late-term abortion, a really -- one of the bad procedures, a terrible. And then, on the floor of the Illinois State Senate, he voted present,” McCain added.
“I don’t know how you vote ‘present’ on some of that,” he said. “I don’t know how you align yourself with the extreme aspect of the pro- abortion movement in America. And that’s his record, and that’s a matter of his record.”
“It was clear-cut votes that Senator Obama voted, I think, in direct contradiction to the feelings and views of mainstream America,” McCain concluded.
I was writing the same observation as you were posting yours. Whether it’s an embrace of death or a coveting of government handouts, a whole lot of Americans are willing to make a Faustian bargain with Obama.
Obama lied bigtime on the abortion issue.
Thanks for that information.
Thank GOD Senator McCain took this death dealer to task on the horror of the vote against little babies born alive after botched abortions.
My bet is millions who watched had NEVER heard of Obommunism’s votes on this issue.
Pray they will get out and research it and find out the facts.
God save us from thie merchant of death.
We could tell... His lips were moving the whole time.
This has gotten so little attention and while I was glad that McCain had brought it up in the debate last night, I’m sure there were a lot of people out there that did not comprehend the true extent of Obama’s stance.
I challenge people to ask others what they think of the Born Alive Infant Act. Most will not know much about it and they will be horrified when you explain to them exactly what it is.
I also wished McCain would have told the public that Obama wants our tax dollars to go to funding abortion.
McCain’s challenge of 0bama’s true stance on abortion was weak, weak, weak. How he failed to hammer 0bama’s support of the Freedom of Choice Act is beyond me.
Jim Lehrer (Disgraced PBS, Democrat): "Lying? Who cares. We will never report it.
Perhaps you did not get the memo.
The Messiah-Obama may lie because he is our chosen
AND because he is a Democrat. Now, how many of Gwen Ifill's book
on Obama's glorious upcoming-for-certain January 2009 Coronation, I mean, Inauguration would you like?"
“Senator 0bama supports the horrific practices of partial birth abortion and allowing born alive infants to die on the table - AND he is going to force you to pay for it.”
“Obama Lied During Debate “
In other news, the sun rose today.
That's all that I keep thinking.
When you look at the ancient Mayans and Canaanite societies, where infanticide was an integral part of their culture, you have to ask yourself, are we any better?
Here is a youtube video (audio only) of Obama arguing against the Born Alive Infant Protection Act. His argument is basically “...then ANOTHER doctor has to be called in an emergency situation...” http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ypDwNpgIUQc
As Rush always says, liberals know they can’t win an honest debate...so when lies aren’t even enough to win the hearts and minds of the American people, use a government bought-and-paid-for organization like ACORN to stuff the ballot boxes.
It’s in the Illinois State Assembly Records and Obama is on record speaking against the passage of the bill. He didn’t just vote, he spoke about why he voted the way he did. I wish I could remember the number. S.B. ,,,,? I’ll try to find it.
Well, of course he did, as he did in every other debate. Obama only speaks truth when his tongue 'slips' like it did with Joe the Plumber. Too bad so many sheeple are being sucked in by 'that one'.
Given the costs of his free health care, look for O to demand no care be given to the elderly, who would no doubt die sooner rather than later anyway.
We can’t be inconveniencing their families.
