How cute, Clinton’s campaign keeps up on the present votes including the most hypocritical pile of shit in a campaign:
Illinois Now on Obama’s Present Votes On Choice:
During Sen. Obama’s 2004 Senate campaign, the Illinois NOW PAC did not recommend the endorsement of Obama for U.S. Senate because he refused to stand up for a woman’s right to choose and repeatedly voted ‘present’ on important legislation.As a State Senator, Barack Obama voted ‘present’ on seven abortion bills, including a ban on ‘partial birth abortion,’ two parental notification laws and three ‘born alive’ bills. In each case, the right vote was clear, but Sen. Obama chose political cover over standing and fighting for his convictions. “When we needed someone to take a stand, Sen. Obama took a pass,” said Grabenhofer. “He wasn’t there for us then and we don’t expect him to be now.”
Yet, Lisa Madigan did the same thing. What did Illinois Now do about her refusal to take a stand?
Yep, they endorsed her:
Who else voted Present?Lisa Madigan on at least one vote:
ENDORSED BY IL NOW PAC
Statewide
Rod Blagojevich D-Governor
Alexi Giannoulias D-Treasurer
Dan Hynes D-State Comptroller
Lisa Madigan – Attorney General
Illinois NOW also stood by Blair Hull when information came out about domestic violence in his divorce dispute.
It’s not hypocracy it’s tactical…
You are ascribing competence to them which it is generally understood should never be ascribed to Illinois NOW 😉
[…] Glad to see my Missouri brother on the Left, Archpundit, come to the conclusion that the National Organization For Women is a fraud. I guess he didn’t take my word for it. It took an attack on Barack Obama, the kind of smear job it launches every year at Republicans. […]
