Obama Has Innocent Blood On His Hands

What happens to babies that survive a failed abortion attempt? President of the United States, Barack Obama believes that they should be left to die. Some background on this from BornAliveTruth.org...

As an Illinois State Senator, Barack Obama opposed the Illinois Born Alive Infants Protection Act. The legislation defined any infant born alive as a "person” who deserves full legal protection...

...Obama actively opposed the legislation in the Illinois State Senate. In 2001, he voted no in committee, spoke against it on the Senate floor, and voted present on the floor. In 2002, he voted no in committee, spoke against it on the Senate floor, and voted no on the floor. Obama was the sole senator to ever speak against it on the Senate floor.

Gianna Jessen - herself an abortion survivor spoke out against Obama's viciously anti-life ideology in her TV advert. Pro-life blogger Jill Stanek who worked as a nurse, and witnessed this horrific practice commented that the hospital where she worked "was leaving babies who survived induced labor abortions to die in the soiled utility room." Jill personally held one of these infants 45 minutes until he gasped his last breath.

In 2002, Born Alive passed unanimously in the U.S. Senate and by overwhelming voice vote in the House. On August 5, President George W. Bush signed the bill into law.
Despite that, numerous accounts from various parts of the country document abortion survivors are still being medically neglected until the die or outright killed – infanticide. - BornAliveTruth.org

Bioethics Questions put to McCain, Obama

Nancy Gibbs at TIME puts a couple of good bioethic questions to McCain and Obama.  "Imagine if the presidential candidates were willing to talk frankly about the things that affect us most: not just guns and butter, but also life and death..." she says.

For Barack Obama: Democrats have long argued for greater reproductive freedom. Do you think that should include the right to choose the sex of your child? The same genetic tests that screen for terrible diseases could in theory target many other predispositions. What if prospective parents could screen for short or shy or gay or blond? This is a largely unregulated universe of treatment; should it be?

For John McCain: About 8,000 people may die this year waiting for organ transplants. Do you think the free market should include kidneys? You've said human rights begin at conception. But fertility clinics create excess embryos that are frozen and often discarded, which you've favored using for research. So are some embryos more equal than others?

Born Alive Truth Launched

www.bornalivetruth.org has just been launched.  The Born Alive Truth website aims to "educate the public on the IL Born Alive Infants Protection Act and Senator Obama's record opposing this act.".  Below is their wonderful 30 second TV advert featuring abortion survivor, the indomitable Gianna Jessen.  The advert is set to air throughout the US, and will alert people to the fact that Senator Barack Obama is so pro-death that he even supports killing babies that survive abortion attempts.  (this is called partial birth abortion)

Huh


McCain and Obama shake hands at the September 11th memorial ceremony.

Just the other day, the Republicans jumped on Obama's reference to "lipstick on a pig", and claimed that he was attempting to slur Palin and McCain personally. And then today, an under-the-belt swipe from the Democrats. A youtube video mocking his inability to use a computer keyboard or send an email, due to injuries he recieved when fighting in the Vietnam War.

I wonder, who is going to be the next president of the United States... I think it is going to be John McCain, but it's a hard call to make.
