Barack Obama voted against the Born Alive Infant Protection Act in Illinois. He voted against it in committee, and then voted "present" on the Illinois Senate floor. This means that if a baby is born alive, perhaps as the result of a failed abortion, he does not believe that baby is entitled to any appropriate medical care. This makes him more extreme on abortion than Teddy Kennedy and the National Abortion Rights Action League, and in fact moves him from pro-abortion to pro-infanticide. For me, that is a deal-breaker, even if I were inclined to agree with him about other things. It’s really very simple. One fact should solve all the questions about who to vote for.
