I am checking out the links provided here right now, but felt I must say that I have not relied on the media or news Papers for my information. I have been watching C-span, and checking the Goverment website for both the US senate for both and the state senate for Obama.
there is some web site that I ran across yesterday that disputes most of what is being said about Obama. Funny thing was they were calling actual documents lies. They said that Obama had good reason to vote against, or in this case simply vote present, concerning the issue of giving medical treatment to a baby born alive after an attempt of abortion was done. Yes people that does happen. This bill was introduced in the Illinos senate several times were Obama blocked it from even making it to the floor on one occassion. On this occassion the bill passed not only the Illinos senate but a similar bill passed the US senate around the same time. However Obama not only voted present but in a speach on the floor gave his reason for his Present vote.
Here is the link to his speach that day, you must scroll down to page 84 and part way down the page you will see his name. Read from there.
http://www.ilga.gov/senate/transcripts/strans92/ST033001.pdfObama is for not only Partial Birth abortion, but he is also against doing anything to help the infant if it lives through the abortion. The reason this came to the floor in the first place was because several nurses started to complain about the inhuman treatment of the many infants that were living through these abortions. They were literally being left in dirty closets on shelf until the died. I can find the link for the story and will post it when I find it.
Okay I just found one of the few, I did have the actual nurses testimony and discription of what was going on, I haven't found that site yet, but will post it when I find it. But for now check this one out. I do warn you that this is sad to read.
