Michelle Obama Under Fire for 2004 Letter Defending Partial-Birth Abortions.....
Too bad she wasn't aborted.....
Washington, DC-- Michelle Obama, the attorney wife of pro-abortion Democratic presidential candidate Barack Obama, is coming under fire for a letter she wrote defending partial-birth abortions. The 2004 letter, written to help Obama in his campaign for his U.S. Senate seat, opposes the ban on the abortion procedure. In February 2004, Michelle Obama penned a fundraising letter to help her husband Barack raise funds for his Illinois-based Senate seat. The letter contends the federal ban on partial-birth abortions "is clearly unconstitutional" and "a flawed law." Though the three-day-long partial-birth abortion procedure involves the partial birth of a baby during the middle trimester of pregnancy and the jamming of scissors into the back of her head to kill her, Obama's wife describes it as "legitimate" medicine.ZIP"The fact remains, with no provision to protect the heath of the mother, this ban on a legitimate medical procedure is clearly unconstitutional and must be overturned," Michelle Obama writes in the letter.
Noted pro-life advocate Jill Stanek highlighted the letter on her blog and said Michelle was "leeching off the partial birth abortion ban" to raise funds for her husband.
"I'd like to ask Michelle how in the world she could in good conscience raise money from fear-mongering about this barbaric abortion procedure," she added.
She is going to drag him down

I once thought that, but if she hasn't yet? Then when?

Once the 527's get rolling because Juan McVain wont use her words against her and Obama.

Elric,
That may not be a bad strategy for Juan, look at how bad it's worked for Clinton. She's horrified a once devout Clintonite base.

I doubt Juan will horrify any conservatives by using their own words against them. Being nice to Dems hasnt paid off, has it?

He's been picking his spots lately, he hammered Obama's asinine Iran comments. It's a start....

Also, he fucked up when he didn't rip Obama over Jeremiah Wright...

McCain is going to hammer Obama over the issues - only. Fine.
Let others be the bad guy and hammer Obama for his character and crackpot associates (including that harpy known as his wife).
I can't believe that these people are "Christians", yet they fully support infanticide. Evil.
I'm beginning to detest the harpy more than Hillary... !

That would be fine if Juan wouldnt tell the others to lay off and call them racists like he did when they ran ads against Obama in NC.
