Neb. mom carried non-viable pregnancy due to law | The Associated Press | Nation | San Francisco Examiner
so instead of being able to painlessly end her pregnancy (that she and her doctor wanted, but couldn't) she had to wait around to birth the baby knowing that it was going to die.
another "win" for the fascist social conservatives who want to rule and ruin everyone elses lives
If I correctly understand you position as one of shock and revulsion about the death of this fetus, and the mother being forced to endure watching same, and the horror you experience when you consider the 'fascist social conservatives,' I'm sure you were even more chagrined at the possibility that some elected official, somewhere, might endorse the slow and pitiable death of an 'aborted' fetus that remained alive, and was then allowed to die.
Right? Surely you'll be consistent here, won't you?
"In 2002, as an Illinois legislator, Obama voted against the Induced Infant Liability Act, which would have protected babies that survived late-term abortions. That same year a similar federal law, the Born Alive Infant Protection Act, was signed by President Bush. Only 15 members of the U.S. House opposed it, and it passed the Senate unanimously on a voice vote.
Both the Illinois and the federal bill sought equal treatment for babies who survived premature inducement for the purpose of abortion and wanted babies who were born prematurely and given live-saving medical attention.
But Obama voted against this bill in the Illinois senate and killed it in committee. Twice, the Induced Infant Liability Act came up in the Judiciary Committee on which he served. At its first reading he voted present. At the second he voted no.
The bill was then referred to the senates Health and Human Services Committee, which Obama chaired after the Illinois Senate went Democratic in 2003. As chairman, he never called the bill up for a vote."Obama More Pro-Choice Than NARAL - HUMAN EVENTS
Let's see your true colors.
so this is NOW about Obama instead of what this woman was faced with in Nebraska, PC?
This is about taking consistent positions. Is that alright with you?
