Barack's ad attacking Jessen (and inaccurately blaming John McCain for the ad) is here.  He argues that his votes against the Born Alive Infant Protection Act are being "taken out of context."

But here's the tip of the iceberg, quick and easy:  After the US Senate passed a bill protecting babies born alive as a result of botched abortions -- with even people like Barbara Boxer and Teddy Kennedy voting in support -- the same bill went back to Barack's committee in the Illinois Senate.  He voted against it.
