Not Obama’s Gettysburg Addresses

Not Obama’s Gettysburg Addresses

Will the media compare Obama’s speeches against the Illinois Born Alive Infant Protection Act to the Gettysburg Address, as it did for Obama’s Newtown speech?

I think not. Certainly not after Kermit Gosnell.

They were not Gettysburg Addresses.

The ground in which the dead were buried was not hallowed.

The dead were not honored.

Nor resolved that they shall not have died in vain.

A reader also sends this quote from then State Senator Obama (at pp. 33-34):

“… if these children are being born alive, I, at least, have confidence that a doctor who is in that room is going to make sure that they’re looked after.”

Tell that to the infants born alive at Gosnell’s clinic.

From the archives, What don’t you (or didn’t Obama) understand about killing a baby born alive?:

When Newt brought it up at the debate, Politico immediately jumped to Obama’s defense, confusing partial-birth abortion (which is bad enough) with post-abortion snuffing out of babies who survived. Politico issued this update:

UPDATE: A couple of conservative readers suggest that I may be wrong in razzing Gingrich on this, as his point likely referred to this legislation specifically, rather than late-term abortion in general. Obama may or may not have been asked about that during the 2008 race

I thought I had once posted about this, but I can’t find it.

Tom Maguire has a good history of Obama’s attempt to obscure his opposition to the bill, and the connivance of the mainstream media in confusing two companion bills to give Obama political cover during the 2008 elections.

Check the actual dates of this ‘speech’ in the Illinois Senate & Malia’s birth.

They might be close . Was Malia a foetus or a baby ?

Plenty of people have strong views even experiences with abortion but fewer are so black visioned when they become or about to become a parent of a baby.

    Sorry – make that Sasha . Malia would have been the grand old age of 5 & well on the way to not being ‘punished by a baby’ territory.

    Answering my own query – yes I should get a life – it is as I suspected.

    The timeline shows Sasha was 11 weeks from being born – therefor between 26 .5 & 30 week old foetus. – or is that a baby?

    Stunning that a man could not only vote against it then but he doubled down again when she was 10 months old.

    I also learnt that the kid’s real name is Natasha . if so , the idiots do not know that Sasha is the diminutive of Alexandra . Natasha. is already the diminutive of Natalia.

    Uggh – they are not even decent communists.

“… if these children are being born alive, I, at least, have confidence that a doctor who is in that room is going to make sure that they’re looked after.”

Why would the very same doctor who botched the abortion provide medical care to protect or preserve the life of the baby who will be Exhibit A in the medical malpractice/”wrongful life” lawsuit that will be filed against the doctor by the woman whose abortion he botched?

Is Harvard-trained lawyer Obama really so dense that he could not see the obvious conflict of interest in this situation?

I realize that Obama is not the brightest bulb in the box, but surely even he understands that one does not allow the fox to “look after” the baby chickens.

Thank you, Professor, for pounding home the core of the issue. America once fought murderers and despots. Men of courage once said, “Over my dead body.” Who will now stand and say, Enough!

Who is out there that will be brave like Newt and call out the media every time they try to pull this? I haven’t seen anyone. Maybe Ted Cruz someday.

The probability is very close to 100% that both the “elite media” referred to by Newt and the McRINO campaign in ’08 and Romney in ’12 all knew about Obama’s partial birth abortion vote and chose to sit on it. And if the opposition research teams for both campaigns failed to uncover the audio, then they are guilty of campaign malpractice. I first heard that clip a very long time ago, years ago, and nobody is paying me to dig up dirt on an opponent for a political campaign.

“… if these children are being born alive, I, at least, have confidence that a doctor who is in that room is going to make sure that they’re looked after.”

I very much doubt Obama was talking about anything else than what Gosnell did to those babies. He’s already said the mother wants the baby dead, so whether that baby lives or dies should be determined by the abortionist whose job it is to extract a dead baby.

When pushing Obamacare, our President contended that we could not trust doctors to make sound decisions because, you know, they amputate for money or something like that. But we can see that if abortion is the doctor’s specialty, they are absolutely trustworthy and need no second opinion, review or, did he say burden, on their decisdion to try and kill that child twice since they botched the original attempt.

The doctor gets nervous, completing the service
He’s all rubber gloves and no head
He fumbles the light switch, it’s just another minor hitch
Wishes to God he was dead

But ou can’t be too strong you can’t be too strong
You can’t be too strong
You can’t be too strong
Can’t be too strong you decide what’s wrong

These abortion/misanthropy radicals have to use the language of dehumanization, just as genocides rely on it.

Ergo, you have “fetus” when they mean “unborn child”.

Or even, as noted in that link, AFTER a child is born.
