  If Huffington Post needs sleaze, all they have to do is look in the mirror.

  Obama couldn’t bring himself to support the born alive act in Illinois. Nurse Stanek testified before his committee about the incident when she cradled an infant who was alive after labor had been induced (at “Christ” Hospital) to be left to die alone. The baby was breathing but didn’t have the strength to cry. Jill Stanek, a Nurse on duty came to know about him and was there for him. She held him for forty-five minutes before there was no reason to comfort him any longer. Obama expressed concern to the legislative committee considering a measure to provide life support for such babies at the time—claiming the law would cause an erosion of rights under (the gospel) of Roe. It was and is okay with him for a live baby the would-be mother wanted to abort to be placed in a room alone until he or she dies.

  Evil in my view is more than the absence of good or good intentions. Evil is “anything that causes harm or injury,” according to one dictionary—but it is also defined as wicked and immoral acts and religiously as Satan inspired acts against other people. I believe evil is unimaginable cruelty in every form. A live birth of a baby only to be left to die is unimaginable.

  We are to believe he is an agent of change for the good. He can’t support an act that would have provided ordinary care to an infant born due to an induced labor attempt to abort—where the protocol of the hospital was and remains to do nothing for the baby as it dies, sometimes slowly. That policy of killing remains in place courtesy of Obama and the Illinois State Senate.

  Letting a baby die is evil and it doesn’t matter what argument the left tried to use—it is evil. It is not enough for Obama to be in favor of partial birth abortions—an evil tragedy itself—he also supports ending life that apparently does not meet his idea of a valued life. And he expects to be the President of the United States of America.

  We are to believe he has the interests of us—the people of America—at heart, deeply, sincerely—and that he wants to do well by us and the country. We are to believe he will work with all points of view (undoubtedly with a fixed result already in mind before listening to anyone on the right—proven by his “experience”). We are to believe he will lead us out of an economic slowdown. We are to believe he will keep us out of war and safe at home. We are to believe he will cut our taxes. We are to believe that a new era led by this politician who played the special interests in Chicago well enough will rise like the sun and everyone will be happy and prosperous. We are to believe Obama is the salvation of the country. We are expected to be the quiet fools and believers in liberal doublespeak as socialism and death become even a more permanently fixed part of our country.

  I’m not amused. I’m not impressed. I’m starting to think real, true evil actually does reside comfortably on the left. It is a kind of murky, confused cloud that hangs over and moves with the minds taken in by the mantra of being enlightened, compassionate and intelligent. I’m starting to believe the left invited it in and welcomes the visitor with open arms. The pockets of blue States where legislative acts such as “Infants Born Alive” have been summarily defeated is proof. Obama is a leftist.

  I don’t believe him for one second. An experiment with Obama will be far more costly in every way then we can possibly imagine. He has one of the worst records in the Senate that clearly shows unabashed partisanship. All things conservative must be evil to him. We don’t need a salvation other than a moral one where better character and better beliefs lead to a better society. The society in many quarters is broken—that’s undisputed. What is life like in the Ghettos and why is it like that? What is life like unemployed, on welfare? Who is required to pay for our health insurance? Who will pay for abortions? If Obama is elected, it is only a matter of time when this procedure—with no restrictions—will be covered under the government’s health plan. We will all pay financially for the infant left to die. We will all pay a far greater price as a society as life itself continues to be cheapened. We all risk our very souls.

  Obama, a contemptuous liar who has decided he knows what life has value and what life should be taken. He looks down on people at the same time he is unable to barely utter a sentence without so many hedges in his speech that even he loses his train of thought. He cannot be an agent of change except the kind of change that literally destroys life and along the way on the same, shallow leftist journey—seriously damage our country—a place we will no longer recognize. It wouldn’t be a happy place with Obama.

  The country would seem more like the near permanent expression on Michelle’s face.

  More babies will be left to die and no one is supposed to care.
