Poll
Will the Dems' health care Christmas Present to America be an improvement or detriment to our health care system?


Pastore: … There’s no saline, there’s no salt, there’s no suturing, there’s no cutting, there’s none of that? So they just deliver the baby and because the mom wanted to terminate then you just kill the baby rather then help it survive.

Stanek: Yes, Sarah Palin is a great example of what typically happens. A mom is diagnosed with her baby having some sort of an anomaly, and they push very hard for these moms to abort, but the diagnosis comes during the second trimester, or early third. So, this would be the typical abortion procedure that Downs kids have. You know that 90 percent of Downs kids that are aborted—likely, most of them are aborted by this method…. If she had gone through this procedure in Illinois, and if her little baby boy Trig had survived, Barack Obama is on record as saying he doesn’t think there should be intervention.

Pastore: Wow.

Stanek: He actually said that during Senate testimony in 2002, and there are audio clips out there that were recently discovered that you might want to get a hold of. He said that he didn’t think—he acknowledged that these babies could be aborted alive, but he said that it would be a “burden”—that’s his word—on the “original decision”—that’s his word again—on the mother and the doctor to resuscitate these babies.

Pastore: What’s fascinating to me is you are the nurse, the delivery room nurse, you were there, you’ve been before his committee there’s no way to spin this. It’s not you reciting another news story. You are the news story.

Stanek: I think what happened there was that he got back from Hawaii and his people didn’t tell him that we had the actual vote, the actual archived vote from the Illinois general assembly that had been scanned and all over the Web and so when he went on that interview and called us lying liars, he was really waving a red flag not only before National Right to Life, but kind of laying down the gauntlet which really helped create more of the media furor, so that by Sunday night, his staff had had to tell The New York Sun that it was true—he had voted the way he said he had not voted. And actually factcheck.org—you know a non-partisan group—has confirmed that he has voted that way and that he misrepresented his vote.

Pastore: What does this now mean—in your understanding? I mean for so long, for four years he had misrepresented his record, he knew he was lying about it, now he’s caught. The issue of life has surfaced yet again….

Stanek: … What we are talking about Frank, is a man who is so adamantly pro-abortion that he is pro-infanticide. He is on record as being in favor of allowing these kids to die in order to complete the mom’s request, although her request—she has gotten her pregnancy terminated, you know when the baby’s born—but he thinks she has the right to a dead baby.

Sickened
I am so beyond sickened and saddened to read this story... so many people are so blinded by the idea of this man... they DO NOT have a clue about the REAL PERSON he is. When will America wake up and see him for his REAL COLOR, which is neither black or white... but blood RED!

ABORTIONS
A RADIO AD SAYS THAT IF YOU VOTE FOR MCCAIN, HE WILL TAKE AWAY A WOMANS RIGHT TO CHOOSE. THAT'S A LOAD IF I EVER HEARD ONE. EVERY WOMAN THAT DECIDES, BY HER CHOICE, TO HAVE SEX, HAS THE RIGHT TO USE PROTECTION, TO PREVENT THE CHANCE OF GETTING PREGNANT. IT IS BY HER OWN STUPIDITY IN EVERY WAY, SHAPE AND FORM THAT SHE GOT PREGNANT. THESE DAYS, GIRLS DON'T REALLY CARE MUCH IF THEY HAPPENED TO GET PREGNANT JUST BECAUSE THEY SAY (NO PROBLEM THERE, I'LL JUST GO GET A ABORTION AND KILL THIS BABY)

WOMAN HAVE A RIGHT TO CHOOSE!! THEY DON'T WANT MAKE THE RIGHT CHOICE AT THE RIGHT TIME!!
SO, DON'T TAKE IT OUT ON THE POOR LITTLE BABY WHO NEVER ASKED TO TO BORN, THE MOM WANTED IT !!!
