After calling the National Right-to-Life Committee -- and others who have repeated the group's claims that Obama opposed the Illinois version of the Born-Alive Infant Protection Act -- liars. An Obama spokesman came out yesterday and confessed that there is only one liar -- and his name is Barack Obama.

His campaign yesterday acknowledged that he had voted against an identical bill in the state Senate, and a spokesman, Hari Sevugan, said the senator and other lawmakers had concerns that even as worded, the legislation could have undermined existing Illinois abortion law. Those concerns did not exist for the federal bill, because there is no federal abortion law.

You'll suffocate to death if you hold your breath until Obama issues an apology to the people who were telling the truth.

When asked at Saturday's Civil Forum exactly when babies get human rights, Obama demurred, saying that the answer was above his pay grade.

Many have noted that if you're not sure, the moral position is to err on the side of life.

The truth is that Obama's position -- that he dare not speak -- is that a baby gets human rights as soon as the mother determines that it deserves them.

Of course, that position is at odds with Obama's list of evils in the same forum. The third thing Obama listed as an evil was "child abuse."
