Devastating Obama Abortion ad -- BornAliveTruth_org's new commercial featuring abortion survivor Gianna Jesson

In 1999 a gruesome discovery was made that an Illinois hospital was shelving babies to die in a soiled utility room who had survived their abortions.

The Illinois Born Alive Infants Protection Act was introduced in 2001 to provide legal protection to all born babies, wanted or not, including the right to medical care.

Then-state Senator Barack Obama voted against Born Alive 4 times in 3 years and was the sole senator to speak against it on the Senate floor in 2001 and 2002.

In 2002, the Federal version of Born Alive passed unanimously in the US Senate and by overwhelming voice vote in the House. The pro-abortion group NARAL even went neutral on the bill.

But In 2003, Barack Obama voted against the identical version of Born Alive in Illinois. Then, for the next 4 years he repeatedly misrepresented his vote until it was recently discovered in the IL General Assembly archives.

Explore our website to learn the shocking truth: Senator Obama opposed granting legal recognition to born alive infants as human beings, and thus denied them the guarantee of medical care.

View Barack Obama's Actual Voting Record “If Barack Obama had his way I would not be here.”

Can you imagine not giving babies their basic human rights, no matter how they entered our world? My name is Gianna Jessen, born 31 years ago after a failed abortion. I’m a survivor, as are many others…but if Barack Obama had his way, I wouldn’t be here.

What did Obama say when confronted with the ad?

This issue is going to continue to be used to manipulate people.  I don't believe that any of the candidates really care about this issue.

The abortion debate really cuts to real fears that everyone has about what life is and its meaning.  There are no answers.  No one can prove anything. 

For laws to be enacted to put the state on one side of this debate runs against the Constitution, as it is legislation based upon religious spiritual belief. 

Weather politicians opposing abortion rights really care about the issue or if they are really willing try and overturn the Supreme Court decision is dubious at best.  What is sure is that this issue can turn effect an election.  Those who look to a candidate's position on this issue as their main factor in voting risk being manipulated and used.  I think the Bush presidency is a perfect example of this.

The born alive thing seems like it would be pretty rare.  I tried to listen to the video but it was too strange.  Cant they even get a real person to read the script? It is sensational for sure but substance is lacking.

The number of abortions are down anyhow.
