Obama: A Heartbeat Away from Murder

In previous articles, I have highlighted Barack Obama’s opposition to an Illinois law that would protect infants who were born alive following a botched abortion. Obama believes that a woman should be allowed to complete an effort to abort an unwanted pregnancy, even if it means killing or abandoning until death a viable infant outside of the womb.

It struck me that, if we as a nation condone the killing of “born alive aborted” babies, we are baby’s breath away from “aborting” a full-term infant after birth. The “logic” (or insanity) is the same.

Under Obama’s policy, it no longer matters if the infant to be aborted is inside the womb or outside. All that matters is the mother “chooses” to kill the baby.

If a woman can reconfirm or “re-choose” to kill a baby after its live birth (albeit during an abortion attempt), it is an easy argument to say that she can make her initial choice to “abort” a baby after its live birth.

In most civilized societies, the intentional killing of a living human being (other than a state-sanctioned execution) is considered murder. However, if you ask the man who could be our next President, such an act would simply be the logical extension of a woman’s “choice” to avoid being, as Obama put it, “punished with a baby.”
