Obama on Born Alive Infants

I am staunchly pro-life, but I believe that in this day and age Roe v. Wade is may not be overturned for quite some time. Much effort has gone into stopping abortion, but since the Roe v. Wade decision in 1973 an estimated 46 million abortions have been performed. I believe that even those who support abortion would not support letting babies suffer who were born alive following an abortion attempt, nor would they support partial birth abortion. I hope all who read will be appalled by the following information and consider who the true Barrack Obama is.

Senator Obama voted four times against the Born Alive Infant Protection Act in the Illinois State Senate. Furthermore, he stated at a Planned Parenthood event July 17, 2007 that the first thing he would do as President would be to sign the The Freedom of Choice Act introduced by California Senator Barbara Boxer following the US Supreme Court upholding the Partial Birth Abortion Ban. This would allow the brutal Partial Birth Abortion procedure in which a baby, even near or at term, would be delivered feet first then a probe placed into the back of the skull and the brains suctioned out. I believe that nearly everyone would abhor such a procedure and the practice of babies born alive following abortions being left to die. Yet, at least at this point Senator Obama is doing well in the polls. How can it be that someone unable to care "for the least of these" COULD care for me or anyone else? It is hard to imagine he has the country's best interest at heart. Rather his own political ambitions and the times are undoubtedly driving the discussion of health care for all. He proclaims the necessity of providing health care for all, but denies ALL medical care, even pain care and comfort to innocent, helpless babies, certainly "the least".

Please read more about the Born Alive Infant Protection Act.


Perhaps, we can work to eliminate the cruelest of all abortions and permanently ban practices that an overwhelming majority of our nation would never want to see happen. Although I want to see all abortions banned, my prayer is that there are many out there who will think twice when they consider what heart a man must have who won't support live, innocent, kicking, and breathing babies.
