I won't watch it. Absolutely disgusting. Don't forget that our president supported this in Illinois. In 2001, Illinois State Senator Patrick O'Malley discovered that a procedure was being performed at hospitals in Illinois where labor was induced on a mother for the purposes of an abortion. Children who survived this procedure were taken to another room and left unattended until passing. In response to this practice, he introduced three pieces of legislation dealing with born children:

•SB1093 said that if a doctor performing an abortion believed there was a likelihood the baby would survive, another physician must be present "to assess the child's viability and provide medical care".
•SB1094 gave the parents, or a state-appointed guardian, the right to sue to protect the child's rights.
•SB1095 simply said a baby alive after "complete expulsion or extraction from its mother" would be considered a " 'person,' 'human being,' 'child' and 'individual' ".

The only member to oppose the legislation in committee and the only member to speak against them was State Senator Barack Obama.


I wonder at what point, if ever, these people will call it murder?
