Why Obama Really Voted For Infanticide

I know I keep beating this Obama-and-abortion drum, but I think this is an extremely important issue to consider as November approaches. Andrew McCarthy, National Review’s legal-affairs editor, has a very sobering look at Obama’s abortion radicalism in an articled titled “Why Obama Really Voted For Infanticide.” Here’s a sampling:

• There wasn’t any question about what was happening. The abortions were going wrong. The babies weren’t cooperating. They wouldn’t die as planned. Or, as Illinois state senator Barack Obama so touchingly put it, there was “movement or some indication that, in fact, they’re not just coming out limp and dead.”

• No. In Obama’s hardball, hard-Left world, these least become “that fetus, or child — however you want to describe it.”

  Most of us, of course, opt for “child,” particularly when the “it” is born and living and breathing and in need of our help. Particularly when the “it” is clinging not to guns or religion but to life.

• When it got down to brass tacks, Barack Obama argued that protecting abortion doctors from legal liability was more important than protecting living infants from death.

Read the whole article for yourself. It’s quite a chilling and damning expose, I think, of the Senator’s position. If there’s ever an issue over which to be a one issue voter, this is it.
