Except Democrats who know what a horror he is on abortion (h/t Brothers Judd)
Unlike McCain, a staunch prolifer, as abortion opponents call themselves, Obama's record on abortion is "extreme,'' according to conservative pundits and bloggers.
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.
This could be a problem for Obama, who already has tripped over guns and religion. A majority of Americans support the right to abortion with some restrictions, generally approving the procedure in the first and second trimesters and in case of rape or incest, or to save the life of the mother.
Regardless of what the moonbats, radical feminists and Pandagonistas would have you believe, most Americans are not in favor of unfettered abortion, particularly after about 20 weeks. Why?
Because by 20 weeks a baby in utero looks--gasp!--like the baby one holds after birth. And lots of us know adults walking around who were born between 24 and 28 weeks--the same time period that pro-abortion supporters will tell you it's "critical" to keep that procedural option available.
Obama's ghastly position on abortion--that killing infants before and after birth is acceptable--won't be acceptable to more of the centrists Obama needs to win the election. It's not terribly hard to paint Obama as a monster. He is one.
