Bubba had a post last night on what he describes as Obama's biggest nightmare-- a political ad featuring Gianna Jessen.
Ms. Jessen is a 31 year old woman whose mother had intended to have an abortion. Gianna somehow survived the abortion, was born prematurely, and has cerebral palsy. The ad that features Gianna points out that Barack Obama, because of his repeated opposition to Infant Born Alive legislation, would have allowed her to die.
I had the opportunity to hear Gianna speak about 15 years ago at a Pregnancy Care Center function. She gives a very moving testimony. She was a mere teenager at the time, and I remember being impacted by her presentation.
Living with the knowledge that her own biological mother wanted her dead has not quenched this young woman's spirit. She is an ebullient Christian who has been active in the pro-life movement for many years in spite of her relative youth and her disability.
Wow!!! What an amazing story/tesitmony.

This IS quite a story, Mary.
And she is discussing an ugly reality regarding Obama's past legislative record in the Illinois Senate that Obama and his people simply do not want to acknowledge.

It's a story that needs to be told LOUD and CLEAR to the American public as often as possible.
