House V: Photo of "Baby" Samuel and his photographer Michael Clancy, the photographer who snapped the photo in 1999 of Baby Samuel Armas reaching out of his mother's uterus to hold the finger of his surgeon, attended a pregnancy care center banquet last month, where he and Samuel's mother Julie spoke.

Wrote Michael in an email to me, "It was a God moment when at the end of her presentation, Samuel, at seven years old, climbed the stairs and took his place beside her at the podium. A standing ovation ensued and it was one of several times that night I more than teared up, I cried."

Here is a photo of Samuel and Michael, taken in March 2007.

Isn’t that the photo that Drudge got kicked off of Fox over?

And Barack Obama voted *3 TIMES* to let this abhorrent practice of denying medical care to little babies just like baby Samuel in the photo. Those that survived an abortion. Ultimately they were left to suffocate and die - cold, alone, and never having known the loving touch of another human being.

Why ANYONE could vote for such despicable person, a man with such a dark soul devoid of mercy for the very least among us, is truly beyond me.

"Pro-Choicers" don't want to be reminded that it's not just a blob of cells.

From Wikipedia: In 1999 Matt Drudge hosted a Saturday night television show called Drudge on the Fox News Channel. In Nov 1999 he attempted to show Samuel's picture on his Fox News program, but was not allowed to by the network. This led to his leaving of the show for what he claimed to be the network's censorship. Fox news directors didn't want to use the picture because they feared Drudge would use it to support an anti-abortion argument. They viewed this would be misleading because the tabloid photo dealt not with abortion, but with an emergency operation on the fetus for spina bifida.

I have talked to people about Obama and his coldheartedness towards these helpless babies, trying to get people to understand. They think its a lie. They don’t believe me. Some people had never heard of partail birth abortion. They get their news from MSM and they don’t hear about these things. If you tell them about FoxNews or Rush or Shawn, they just start in about how they are liars, etc. They have been thoroughly brainwashed by the media and leftist lying politicians.

This story moves me to tears.....We can’t let Obama win this thing people!

Volunteer, donate, walk precincts do whatever you can.

I know McCain is an ideal candidate. But read my tagline and live it!

This incident must be the true incident that was used as the model of an exact same fictional incident on a segment of the medical TV show “House”.

In that show the main character, House, is trying to get a woman he is treating to have an abortion because her medical problems are so difficult and not responding well, and House thinks he has a better chance of saving her if House can abort the baby.

At times House even refers to the baby as a parasite and other derogatory terms.

The mother is not phased and insists that, if it comes to it, she be kept on a respirator, if needed, to keep her body viable long enough for the baby to survive its delivery.

I don't remember the complex medical scenario that develops but finally House is performing surgery on the baby in the womb, and, just as in the real life story, at one point the baby's little hand grasps one of House's fingers. It was chilling.

After all he had said about the baby up to then, that one grasp struck him like a slap and the actor who plays house did a good job of portraying what seemed like a sea change in his consciousness.

The baby growing inside the uterus is a miracle, but so is the uterus itself. What an amazing organ that cannot be duplicated by the best manmade incubators.

MIDI: ALL OUT OF LOVE -http://www.geocities.com/SiliconValley/Hills/7581/frame1.html

It’s twenty one weeks and the baby is ill
But what is the doctor to do?
He’s there in the womb and there isn’t much hope
A miracle soon comes true
Mom says “Operate, because Samuel needs help”
The whole thing is very well planned
The doctor’s surprised when his finger is grabbed
“My God, it is Samuel’s hand…tiny hand”
They’re not tissue mass…they are not a choice, now
Come join if you will…by raising your voice now
They’re not tissue mass…my God, they are babies
Abortion is wrong…it’s got to be stopped somehow
For too many years many babies like him
Are ripped from their safe mother’s womb
Purveyors of death taking innocent life
Hell waits for those in that room
They’re selfish and cruel…they are evil indeed
How many more children must die?
We can’t turn our heads…we all have to stand up
Can’t you hear the angels cry…angels cry
They’re not tissue mass…they are not a choice, now
Come join if you will…by raising your voice now
They’re not tissue mass…my God, they are babies
Abortion is wrong…it’s got to be stopped somehow
Oh, how many more must die…can’t you hear angels cry?
How many more must die…can’t you hear angels cry?
They’re not tissue mass…they are not a choice, now
Come join if you will…by raising your voice now
They’re not tissue mass…my God, they are babies
Abortion is wrong…it’s got to be stopping
They’re not tissue mass…they are not a choice, now
Come join if you will…by raising your voice now
They’re not tissue mass…my God, they are babies
Abortion is wrong…it’s got to be stopping
They’re not tissue mass…they are not a choice, now
Come join if you will…by raising your voice now
They’re not tissue mass…my God, they are babies
Abortion is wrong…it’s got to be stopping

Ask them if they believed the Holocaust in Germany happened. What PROOF do they have that it happened? Photos? Personal testimony from both sides?

Were those lies? Was THAT propaganda? How do they know? It’s amazing really when they start to realize that THEY might be the ones denying the Holocaust ever happened.

We have factual evidence of Obama’s own words and his voting record. They need not go to Fox News or any conservative website to see that record. If they don’t check the FACTS....what are they doing?

These people I know are from my former church and family (fortunately not my kids and husband).
