re: #1113 opnion

Charles no matter who was behind it, it had the Roe Neutral language inserted & therefore mirrored the Federal legislation.

The bottom line on the Born Alive Infant Protection Act:

The history makes it clear that Obama’s role in delaying “born-alive” legislation was minor and based on very understandable reservations of many pro abortion rights legislators in Springfield. There is simply no way to paint him as an “extremist” when multiple versions of this same legislation failed in both chambers, often over bi-partisan concerns — though Jill Stanek is apparently having some success pushing this angle with those who don’t have the patience you’ve had to wade through all the bills and arguments.

This right wing talking point that Obama voted in favor of “infanticide” is 100% pure crap.
