Obama’s Swift Boat?
A week ago an old Marine buddy sent me a link to a You tube video that after viewing it, caused me to sit momentarily stunned by the horror of what I had just seen and heard. The video was that of nurse, Jill Stanek, who had in a completely straightforward and highly effective manner related how she had cradled a dying infant that had been dumped in the dirty laundry room of the Chicago hospital where she worked, following an abortion procedure the unfortunate baby had just survived.
Stanek’s wrenching account of how that baby had fought for forty-five minutes to live but finally died in her arms, is one of those rare experiences that reaches into you and grabs you like a heart attack. If you have not seen it by now, here it is:
If you come away from that video with less than a heavy heart, I don’t think you’d be someone I’d care to number among my friends. Do not, however, think that I am some kind of hard core, under any and all circumstances pro-life conservative because I’m not. However, I am adamantly opposed to the cold, heartless infanticide depicted in this video and I am totally opposed to any politician who would permit it to be public policy as Barack Obama apparently did while serving in the Illinois Senate.
While watching Sean Hannity interview Ms. Stanek, it suddenly occurred to me, Jill Stanek could very well be Obama’s Swift Boat Veteran. Her recounting of how Obama coldly disregarded her heartfelt testimony regarding the issue of these induced labor abortions and the horrifying consequences which she had personally experienced as a result, gives us a glimpse into the heart of this so-called Messiah that is nothing less than chilling. I believe every American who views that video can’t help but come away from it with questions about whether or not this is the kind of man we want as the leader of our nation.
But then, we must realize, he was merely a state senator and not a presidential candidate so decisions about leaving live infants alone in a hospital’s cold, dirty laundry room to helplessly die without any human warmth, love or contact were obviously above Mr. Obama’s pay grade.
Last week at Saddleback, he reminded us they still are.

…..Thank you Russ. This is so important!!!
I can’t believe anyone would want to allow this type of abortion. How could any woman, in her right mind, allow her child to die in such a manner? If you’ve gone this far, go all the way and give the baby up for adoption.
I’m pro life with the exception of if it’s rape, incest, the baby dies (that happened to me) or the mother’s life would be in jeopardy should she go to full term, but it shouldn’t be in the late second to third trimester, or if the mother is under 16. A girl that young is not fully capable or ready to carry a baby to full term.
This is just another reason to NOT vote for Obamanation.
Since Roe v. Wade there have been 45,000,000 (million)abortions, in the United States. This approaches the number of people killed by Stalin during his genocidal reign.
This from the party of ‘feelings, compassion’ and whatever other ‘touchy-feely’ adjective they care to include sure screams hypocrisy. They are so concerned about the lives of the ‘poor’ and the downtrodden, yet allow the murder of innocent babies and allow real murderers and child molestors loose.
This week at the democrat convention they will trot out victims of the Bush years and claim it was his fault that these poor people are the result of the Bush’s lack of compassion, his passion for giving money to BIG OIL, and not caring about the ‘little-guy’. They will claim Abortions rose during his tenure which is a complete lie, in fact the number of abortions dropped. But nonetheless this is what they will claim.
The left will not refer to this procedure as Abortion, murder or even infanticide they use euphemisms like, a pregnancy termination, or the procedure. And the mind-numbed minions will believe it. They will believe all the lies of change, and how much better it will be with an ‘off-white’ candidate and his token ‘Honkie’ in the White House.
But what we will get is more of the same and a reinstatement of the despicable partial birth abortion. When in four years people will start to realize that nothing has really changed except there are more abortions but they are still dirt poor and they will sit on their collective asses and whine again until obama throws them another bone.
Obama not only backed this legislation He used it as a Campaign fund raiser for his Senate seat!! I think WT had a story about that a while back– Just too unbeliveable how a person and group of people are so heartless!!
EVIL OBAMA- SHOULD HAVE BEEN AN ABORTION!!!
Narcissism doesn’t allow for empathy for others. It wouldn’t cross his mind that the baby would suffer.
After all, he doesn’t want his 2 daughters to be saddled with the punishment of a baby if they made a “mistake”.
How can anyone see a baby as a punishment??
I posted on this back on 5/28

Yes Osama Obama the champion of infanticide. I also am very clear about my position on abortion and mention it in my post. It may seem a bit hypocritical, but at least it is honest.
This video is numbing. I have never heard before about killing babies that survived late term abortions. This is murder, genocide, massacre.
Of course, the Marxist in Obama supports these baby killings. Just like he would most likely support the killing of disabled, elderly and retarded people who could not produce for the good of the state and the good of the state’s leaders like his exalted self.
Too bad Obama’s mother did not have an abortion.
It sounds like Obama has already accepted that his daughters may make a mistake. Is that a cultural, racial acceptance? So many illegitimate births and so many abortions in the Black community. Is that the “cool” in thing now, like low rider pants?
There needs to be a way found to get Mr. Vaughn’s message out to the Nation. A guy with his perspective and experience could make a difference.
I’ve seen that video,infanticide, it’s disgusting but true. Triage: Sorting and allocating aid on the basis of need for or likely benefit from medical treatment or food.
Some of us have seen a triage, it’s heartbreaking, those without hope being set aside in preference for those with a chance to be saved and to witness those conscious of their fate.
These babies don’t even get that fateful chance.
Hippocratic Oath: An oath taken by physicians to observe medical ethics deriving from Hippocrates.
Neither above apply to abortion, which is legalized murder, slice it, dice it, parse it any way you want it’s still taking the life of an innocent. Partial birth abortion is nothing but legalized infanticide, performed by that hippocrite that took that Oath.
Once more the Dims equivocate murder with their lack of responsibility.
Let’s take a look at infanticide around the world, India: girls are let die because they are born female, same in Pakistan, Afghanistan and Africa and numerous other nations, because of ethnic, religious or political beliefs, Obama and the Dems want to bring our society down to their level.
A lie told often enough eventually is perceived as the truth. Such is the case with abortion. I hope Satan has a special hell for B.Hussein Obama.
Many Life Time Democrats Are Voting For John McCain This Year Including me.Please Don’t Vote For Obama Hitler.
Lynn, I agree it is a huge reason not to vote for Obama.
Mark, your are so right you said it so much better then I could put it together. This makes my stomach in a knott and such a sick feeling to konw how they feel about this, and what you said is absoltuely true.
Cheryl, yes and now he is trying to lile his way out of this and it is not going to fly. He is going to realize one day his lies cannot stand since there is plenty of proof he is lieing in print and videos.
Yankeemom, this would make a great quote……”Narcissism doesn’t allow for empathy for others” that is so very true.
It just breaks my heart for these innocent babies.
Bob, thank you for the link. I must have missed your post when you did it.
Thanks for your writing about this so much Bob.
Tom when I first heard about it I just sat and cried, I couldn’t believe a human being could be that cold. It really shook me up.
With Planned Parenthood and their help in many black areas they are killing off thousands of black babies and one would think the blacks would be disgusted by this too.
GM Cassel AMH1(AW) USN RET(1973-1993), I agree, I wish I or someone had pull to get his writings in major newspapers and like Townhall would be great for him too. They have a magazine now and he would be so good as one of their writers.
Jack I agree so much. I am adopted and this subject is something that comes close to home, thank God my birth mother did not abort me but let me have a chance at life.
Jim , I hope so much for the same thing.
Robert Nicholas, I won’t, your right Obama Hitler is what he is.
