Confirmed.

Follow up to a post from last week, where I declared Barack Obama supported infanticide.
Hot Air, via the New York Sun:
Russell Berman reports in the New York Sun that the Barack Obama campaign has acknowledged that Obama himself lied about the bill he torpedoed in 2003 that would have required medical providers to give normal medical attention to infants born alive during an abortion. The admission comes with a new spin, as the campaign finally admits that the bill Obama defeated in committee was all but identical to the federal law that passed the Senate unanimously in 2002.
Obama said on Saturday it was "offensive" that people pushed him on the issue. Now we know why it was so "offensive" to him. Obama's story never matched the record. He went out there and accused people of lying when in fact he was the one who was actually lying. Now they are offering up another excuse. It doesn't add up, as pro-life groups point out. One version included the exact provision Obama said he wanted to see. He still voted no.
Barack Obama believes it is proper to kill a baby that has survived an abortion. Probably not a popular stance. This is a big deal.
This comes on the heels of this gem from Saturday night, to the question of when a human being should have legal rights: OBAMA: Well (sigh). "You know, I — I, eh, er — I think that whether you're looking at it from a theological perspective or, uh, a scientific perspective, answering that question with specificity, uhhhh, you know, is above my pay grade."

Wants to be chief executive officer of the country and yet this empty suit feels that when a human being starts having rights is above his pay grade? Top it off this goof with a lack of certitude of when life begins has, whenever faced with a need to vote, sided with the decision favoring the arbitrary destruction of human life for the sin of being inconvenient. Pathetic.
Above his paygrade?
Cut his pay and send him home.
Obama's perception problem has evolved from being seen as a dangerous anti-American undercover Muslim terrorist agent to being seen as a full-blown tattle-tale weanie.
That's quite a trick.
These garbage you guys accuse Democrats of supporting related to abortion continues to evelove It used to be that 'late term abortion' was the accusation of choice. Now, it is 'infanticide.' What is next? Teenagericide?
The bill you cited was not "identical to the federal bill."
From Seth Colter Walls: "The Illinois and federal bills differed not only in language, but regulatory impact. Critically, the Illinois version of the bill that Obama opposed was also bundled with other proposals that would have put doctors at risk of prosecution, which led the Illinois State Medical Society to oppose the measure along with Obama. The state bill also carried greater influence in terms of enforcement, since states had been granted greater leeway in regulating abortion practices ever since the U.S. Supreme Court's 1992 ruling in the case of Planned Parenthood v. Casey."
Even Barabara Boxer is against leaving abortion survivors in a closet to die.
Barack Obama? Not so much.
late term abortion and infanticide are not the same thing.
If The Obamassiah find it offensive when people push him on a hot topic off the day, what are his presidential news conferences going to look like? Let alone foreign leaders.
This is an extremist position and people should know about it.
Every time he gets pinned down he comes up with yet another reason why he didn't vote for the bill. Gheesh…which reason, Obama?
You sat on the committee that wrote the amendment to the bill with the exact same language as the federal bill you said you would vote for….so who's lying, Obama?
