On Immorality
By: Erick Erickson (Diary) | June 28th at 10:53 AM |
The Democrats, in particular Joe Biden and Barack Obama, are out to make the moral case for tax increases. They claim the Republican position is immoral. This is what happens when we debase morality in our American political culture. For perspective, when Barack Obama was a state senator in Illinois, he was the only state senator to speak in opposition to the Born Alive Infant | Read More »
In 2002, Barack Obama Supported Infanticide and I’ve Got the Transcript of His Words
By: Erick Erickson (Diary) | October 15th at 09:14 PM |
Promoted up top in light of tonight’s debate. Editorial Note: People forget this issue came up more than once in Illinois. In 2001, Obama was concerned about abortion rights and the impact the Born Alive Infant Protection Act would have on abortion rights. In 2002, those concerns were addressed and fixed in the legislation. Now Obama’s concerns were more clear. His views on life had | Read More »

Here’s the audio of Obama endorsing Infanticide from the floor of the Illinois Senate
By: Erick Erickson (Diary) | August 20th at 09:07 PM |
This is on YouTube. It’s his voice. I cannot vouch for the authenticity of it, but I trust the friend who sent it to me. In the audio, Obama raises a new argument against the Born Alive Infant Protection Act that he has not raised in public during the present discussion. The description of the YouTube clip sums it up: In this audio Obama coldly | Read More »
Ben Smith of Politico Admits Obama Supported Infanticide
By: Erick Erickson (Diary) | August 20th at 12:52 PM |
It’s great that members of the mainstream media are now getting in on the act and admitting that Obama did support infanticide in the Illinois State Senate. Check out Ben’s post here. What? Don’t see the admission from Ben that Obama did support infanticide? Go read it again. That Smith is slinging Obama’s mud against Jill Stanek is proof positive and a total admission that | Read More »
David Brody Thinks I’m Shrill. I Think Brody Is Letting Perceptions About Objectivity Get in the Way of Facts
By: Erick Erickson (Diary) | August 19th at 06:40 PM |
David Brody gets good access to Barack Obama. Obama, after all, is making superficial outreach efforts to the evangelical community (probably not for much longer). As a consequence of this access, Brody has every reason to play it straight, even to the point of being unwilling to connect the dots himself regarding Obama’s support of infanticide, dots that are abundantly obvious. By not doing so, | Read More »
Barack Obama Finally Admits He Supports Infanticide
By: Erick Erickson (Diary) | August 19th at 11:00 AM |
Barack Obama has finally admitted he did support infanticide in the Illinois State Legislature. Naturally, he won’t phrase it that way and naturally the media won’t cover it, but in fact, he has now admitted he supported infanticide. I have my weekly “RedState Under the Radar” column up at Human Events examining this topic. The column is based on the work we’ve done here at | Read More »
Obama Campaign Admits He Lied When He Called National Right To Life Liars
By: Erick Erickson (Diary) | August 18th at 12:27 PM |
Yesterday, Soren noted that Barack Obama called the National Right to Life Committee liars. NRLC, if you will recall, noted that the Chicago Tribune quoted Barack Obama’s explanation of his vote against the Born Alive Infant Protection Act on October 4, 2004. The Tribune wrote Obama said that had he been in the U.S. Senate two years ago, he would have voted for the Born-Alive | Read More »
Alan Colmes needs some help clearing up his misunderstanding on Barack Obama’s support of infanticide
By: Erick Erickson (Diary) | August 13th at 11:34 AM |
Barack Obama supports infanticide. This is not subject to debate and is an accurate reflection of Obama’s voting record in the Illinois legislature. Consequently, the left has has to obfuscate the issue. On several occasions, Obama voted against the Born Alive Infant Protection Act in the Illinois legislature. Doing damage control for him, last night Alan Colmes attempted to spin the issue into confusing. Interviewing | Read More »
