Golden boy Barack “He speaks so well!” Obama seems to be well-liked by many. My aunt even ordered me to “leave him alone” after reading this post about him last month. (Can’t do it, P!)
Obama will most likely become America’s 5th black United States senator. A typical liberal, he voted pro-infanticide in the Illinois Senate, as I’m sure he’ll continue to do on the federal level if given an opportunity. Just a guess. I suspect that rogue groups will continue to challenge President Bush’s Partial Birth Abortion Ban as “unconstitutional.” Poor babies.
Jill Stanek, a former abortion nurse who testified before the Illinois Senate in favor of legislation defining all live born babies as legal persons, describes Obama:
I now know Obama’s mannerisms well, the way he leans back in his chair, thoughtfully rests his chin in his hand, and with Daschle-like softness of voice, skillfully reasons that allowing live aborted babies to die is necessary to protect the rights of aborting mothers and aborting doctors.
Obama lists no religious affiliation on his site, and I’m not about to guess on that one. Even if he considered himself a Christian, it wouldn’t stop him from voting pro-death, strangely enough. I wrote about this phenomenon in a column titled “Christians” Oppose Partial Birth Abortion Ban.
