The second Obama quote comes from an interview that he did with David Brody of the Christian Broadcasting Network, and it was not directed at either the McCain campaign or the National Journal. Obama was attempting to clarify his position on "born alive" legislation in Illinois. This is how that part of the conversation went:"Infanticide"
David Brody, CBN News (Aug. 16): Real quick, the born alive infant protection act. I gotta tell you that's the one thing I get a lot of emails about and it's just not just from Evangelicals, it about Catholics, Protestants, main — they're trying to understand it because there was some literature put out by the National Right to Life Committee. And they're basically saying they felt like you misrepresented your position on that bill.For the record, we wrote about the back and forth between the National Right to Life Committee and Obama, regarding his votes against "born alive" legislation during his time in the Illinois state Senate.
Obama: Let me clarify this right now.
Brody: Because it's getting a lot of play.
Obama: Well and because they have not been telling the truth. And I hate to say that people are lying, but here's a situation where folks are lying. I have said repeatedly that I would have been completely in, fully in support of the federal bill that everybody supported — which was to say — that you should provide assistance to any infant that was born — even if it was as a consequence of an induced abortion.
Although some sources say that Barack Obama is winning over Pennsylvania, he sure isn't winning over these characters in Johnstown, PA. I see ya up there in Johnstown, PA holding it down for true American Ignorance >:- ) <-- evil smiley face .It's no wounder why Sarah Palin and John McCain must correct or shut up their audience! Because they not only emit a profound lack of knowledge but they display the mentality of a modern day Lynching Mob. We see a black man with a name that isnt Jack ,Billy, Sarah or John then he must be unAmerican muslim extremist whose sole purose is to kill babies and support communism.
"We will continue to look for options for Ketchikan to allow better access to the island," the Republican governor[Sarah Palin] said. "The concentration is not going to be on a $400 million bridge."-CNN
"If you watched the Republican National Convention over the last three days, you wouldn't know that we have the highest unemployment in five years because they didn't say a thing about what is going on with the middle class," Obama told workers at a specialty glass factory.
"They spent a lot of time talking about John McCain's biography, which we all honor," the Illinois senator said. "They talked about me a lot, in less than respectful terms. What they didn't talk about is you and what you're seeing in your lives and what you're going through, or what your friends or your neighbors are going through." - The Associated Press
