I’ve blogged on this before, and I’ll blog on it again and again and again. When the Black Community, which is pretty conservative on the abortion issue, gets a sense of just how radically pro-death Obama is, even they might reconsider their level of support.

Obama’s Abortion Vulnerability

Having survived Hillary Clinton’s “kitchen sink” attack strategy, Barack Obama may think there’s not much left in the kitchen for Republicans to throw at him except a few pots and pans. As he turns his attention to the general election, Obama has invited McCain to join him in debating “big issues” — national security, health care, the economy — instead of resorting to the old politics of personal attacks and negative ads. He is naive if he thinks McCain is going to allow him to set the rules of the game.

The Republicans — and I’m not talking about the nuts in the fruitcake fringe of the GOP — are going to pick up where Hillary Clinton left off in defining Obama as an elitist who doesn’t understand the concerns and values of those gun-owning, church-going Americans he described as “bitter.” They’re not going to let voters forget about his association with Bill Ayers, a leftist radical from the ’60s, or the incendiary sermons of his former pastor, the Rev. Jeremiah Wright. And they will add something new to this mix — Obama’s record on abortion.

…

They point out that Obama not only voted against a ban on so-called partial-birth abortion, a procedure the late Democratic Sen. Daniel Patrick Moynihan of New York once called “too close to infanticide,” but opposed a bill to protect the life of an infant who survived a late-term abortion.

…

Speaking against a similar bill in the Illinois Senate, Obama sounded like the constitutional law professor he was before going into politics.

“Number one,” he said, “whenever we define a pre-viable fetus as a person that is protected by the Equal Protection Clause or the other elements in the Constitution, what we’re really saying is, in fact, that they are persons that are entitled to the kinds of protections that would be provided to a child, a 9-month-old child that was delivered to term. That determination then, essentially, if it was accepted by a court, would forbid abortions to take place. I mean, it — it would essentially bar abortions, because the Equal Protection Clause does not allow somebody to kill a child, and if this were a child, this would be an anti-abortion statute.”

Nothing motivates the radical left more than the right to kill “pre-viable” humans, but even the rabid NARAL took a pass on opposing this bill. Obama, who hangs with un-repentent bombers like Bill Ayers, apparently doesn’t have a problem with denying “health care” to infants born alive in partial-birth abortions.

By the time McCain is done with him on this issue, even some die-hard liberals will feel like washing their hands after shaking Obama’s.

Barack Obama? Ick!
