Abortion stance continues to haunt Obama

 An influential conservative group in Washington has released a new video
warning voters that Democratic presidential nominee Barack Obama wants
to make partial-birth abortion legal again in the United States.
The new video, produced by the Family Research Council (FRC), hammers
Senator Obama for opposing the Born Alive Infant Protection Act while
he was a state senator in Illinois.
The video’s announcer says, “Senator Obama, why did you vote against
protecting infants that survived late-term abortions not once, but four
times? Even Congress unanimously supported protections identical to
those you blocked in Illinois. The Supreme Court upheld the ban on
partial-birth abortions, and yet today you keep working to roll back
this law. Call Senator Obama. Tell him to stop trying to overturn these
basic human rights.” (Watch video here.)
FRC president Tony Perkins notes Obama is a “leading supporter” of
legislation that would not only make partial-birth abortion legal, but
also repeal all parental notice laws on abortion and provide unlimited
tax funding of abortion.
The FRC video stands in stark contrast to a new website called ”Pro-Life
Obama” that was recently unveiled by a liberal political action
committee that reaches out to evangelical and Catholic voters. The
site, produced by the Matthew 25 Network, argues that pro-lifers should
not be afraid to vote for Obama. (related article)
