Obama ad goes to war with abortion survivor
WorldNetDaily.com ^ | September 20, 2008 | Drew Zahn

Posted on 09/20/2008 6:52:41 PM PDT by daylilly

In the increasing flurry of this election's negative political ads, the Barack Obama campaign produced a TV commercial that not only attacks Republican rival John McCain, but also takes aim at an unusual target: a 31-year-old woman who was born alive after her mother's botched abortion. Obama's commercial predictably takes shots at the GOP campaign, calling John McCain's ads "the sleaziest ever, truly vile." But when the screen shows clips of abortion survivor Gianna Jessen and the ad she made asking Obama to reverse his stance on born alive infant protection legislation, the Obama ad calls Jessen's appeal "a despicable lie."

"Attacking this ad is a loser for Obammie’s boys. I hope they keep this stuff up"

Bzactly. The beautiful thing about Obama is his thin skin. He overreacts and draws attention to the slightest attack that draws blood, thereby making a small story a big story.

Keep it up, Obambi!

Actually he get’s to impact more abortions since he is part of the system that keeps that option alive, pardon the pun.

His voting on abortion/survival of abortion etc is dispicable.

Your grandson has been indoctrinated in the government’s education camps, commonly known as public schools.

I believe you’re right. Muslims usually do hate all women. Maybe that’s why Michelle Obama always looks so disgruntled!

I think Obama’s ad says he always supported “infants,” which means after they’re born....just a tiny tweak to the subject at hand.

"a despicable lie."

I've heard that tired old excuse from the Obama camp so many times I'm starting to think it's their new campaign slogan.

What doesn't get mentioned in the examination of Obama's protecting the killing via neglect of premature alive babies is the FACT that the fashionable method for killing unwanted alive unborn children--and it was catching on world-wide, but really gathering steam in the US--was to induce premature birth then set the alive struggling child aside to die, unattended, alone.

This killing method was becoming fashionable especially in abortuaries where the remains of these children were sold to research facilities as fetal tissue sources for dissection.

Obama worked hard on four occasions to prevent this method for killing alive unborn children (read infanticide, pure and simple) from being stopped.

Barack Obama is a ghoul's best friend and wants to lie about his protection for this heinous killing method now that he's been exposed.

He did not vote against it in the Senate. It passed prior to Obama being there

Evidently you haven't read the actual transcripts

When I told my grandson about Obama’s vote, my grandson ask, “Well what are they suppose to do with it? They don’t want it.” I was too stunned to reply, “You don’t get to kill someone just because you don’t want them around.”

There are many couples who have been waiting years to adopt a baby. A woman who has a child she doesn't want can give it up for adoption with no further obligations. In many cases, adoption agencies can even cover the medical costs associated with prenatal care and childbirth.

Ms. Jesson's primary statement, "but if Barack Obama had his way, I wouldn't be here", would not seem to be literally true. I don't think Barack Obama was doing much politically in 1977, and I don't think Barack Obama would have sought to kill Ms. Jesson after he became politically active.

If someone is going to try to use that specific line of accusation, it might be best to use it in reference to someone whom Barack Obama would have had killed. A couple with adopted child that was rescued from an abortion attempt might be good. Show the couple with their baby, and have them state that Barack Obama wanted their baby dead.

Where are these ads showing? Are they on the network channels? Cable? Online? If on nets, are they in the tossup states?

McCain’s camp needs to hit this one hard

I hope he does. With only something like 37% agreeing with BHO on his abortion stance, the (R) ticket could change a lot of votes to their column.
