In 2002 Obama voted against the Induced Infant Liability Act. It would have protected babies that survived late-term abortions. As a note, in February 2004, Michelle Obama sent a fund-raising letter with the "alarming news" that "right-wing politicians" had passed a law stopping doctors from stabbing half-born babies in the neck with scissors, suctioning out their brains and crushing their skulls. This was then followed with her asking for $150 donations.

GW supported that every child whether they are born or unborn should be protected.

Bush - 1
Obama - 0

Protection of privacy of sex-abuse victims. Obama was the only member not to support the bill.

Bush - 2
Obama - 0

Nobody seems to care and I just don't get it. People don't know who he is, they don't care who he is. They don't know how he voted, and they don't care how he voted. They don't care that he doesn't have any experience.

It's just sad that the man who gives a great speech (that is written for him of course) is not the same man we hoped for. It's just an illusion.

People just want the rich guy to pay. They actually truly believe that they are going to get a break and the rich guys will finally pay. Unfortunately that is not what will happen. Under his administration the rich will continue to get richer while the middle and poor will pay more taxes all the while he will pull a Clinton and tell everyone he feels our pain and everyone will say it's okay, it's Bush's fault.
