H]ere's a situation where folks are lying. I have said repeatedly that I would have been completely in, fully in support of the federal bill that everybody supported -- which was to say -- that you should provide assistance to any infant that was born, uh, even if it was as a consequence of an induced abortion. That was not the bill that was presented at the state level. What that bill also was doing was trying to undermine Roe v. Wade. By the way, we also had a bill, uh, a law already in place in Illinois that insured lifesaving treatment was given to infants. So for people to suggest that I and the Illinois Medical Society, so Illinois doctors were somehow in favor of withholding lifesaving support from an infant born alive is ridiculous.
However, Redstate has the transcript, and it shows Barry is lying and obfuscating again...still...whatever...Barry is for infanticide...
...and that, essentially, adding an additional doctor who then has to be called in an emergency situation to come in and make these assessments is really designed simply to burden the original decision of the woman and the physician to induce labor and perform an abortion...
Let me translate this for you: Let's trust the guy who just botched the abortion to determine whether or not he actually did botch the abortion, and that's it. If a baby comes out and it's alive, Barack Obama thought it too damn burdensome to have another doctor -- somebody used to dealing with live babies -- check to see if the baby was viable.
