The following excerpt is taken from an article written by Robert George, law professor at Princeton on the extreme pro-abortion views held by Barack Obama.
Barack Obama is the most extreme pro-abortion candidate ever to seek the office of President of the United States. He is the most extreme pro-abortion member of the United States Senate. Indeed, he is the most extreme pro-abortion legislator ever to serve in either house of the United States Congress.
Yet there are Catholics and Evangelicals-even self-identified pro-life Catholics and Evangelicals – who aggressively promote Obama’s candidacy and even declare him the preferred candidate from the pro-life point of view.
What is going on here?
What kind of America do we want our beloved nation to be? Barack Obama’s America is one in which being human just isn’t enough to warrant care and protection. It is an America where the unborn may legitimately be killed without legal restriction, even by the grisly practice of partial-birth abortion. It is an America where a baby who survives abortion is not even entitled to comfort care as she dies on a stainless steel table or in a soiled linen bin. It is a nation in which some members of the human family are regarded as inferior and others superior in fundamental dignity and rights. In Obama’s America, public policy would make a mockery of the great constitutional principle of the equal protection of the law. In perhaps the most telling comment made by any candidate in either party in this election year, Senator Obama, when asked by Rick Warren when a baby gets human rights, replied: “that question is above my pay grade.” It was a profoundly disingenuous answer: For even at a state senator’s pay grade, Obama presumed to answer that question with blind certainty. His unspoken answer then, as now, is chilling: human beings have no rights until infancy – and if they are unwanted survivors of attempted abortions, not even then.

Oh my! I have tears streaming down my face. I can’t imagine what you went through that day. How sad is it that here in America, that kind of thing is legal? It makes me physically sick to think of all the precious, beautiful, innocent babies that are aborted. I know a few who have had abortions. They are both women who love kids. They are both teachers of all things, and yet somehow justified it, because it was inconvenient at that particular time. Sickening!! Let’s keep praying Obama isn’t the next president.

Thank you for this post. I’m not sure how I found your blog, but it was around the time you posted “Why we chose McCain” and that post is the reason I keep coming back. That video has really motivated me to pray like I never have before. I appreciate your graciousness and your courage in posting.

I think as long as people fail to personalize the *procedure* they can live with the idea of pro-choice. You, Edie, have painted a very powerful picture of what that choice *really* looks like. Thank God that you were there to cradle that wee image bearer of our Lord until he was taken into the arms of his heavenly father.

Thank you, Edie, for this post. The tears are flowing, I can barely see the keyboard. We are fierce McCain/Palin supporters and will do our part to make sure they’re the next leaders of our country. We just have to! Ang

Edie-
I've been a follower of your blog for a while now, but just today decided to start from the beginning and read through all your posts. Oh, my! God surely has a special place in Heaven for you, my friend, for the love and comfort you showed to "the least" while he waited for his Father God to take him home.
I have 3 children and the thought of just handing one over to die alone and unloved is reprehensible!
God bless you for following your instincts, not only as a Christian but also as a woman and mother.
