New Pro Life ads running in Missouri will highlight the compelling story of Melissa Ohden; an outspoken pro life advocate and abortion survivor.  I’ve highlighted work of abortion survivors before, but I never fail to get a bit misty when I see her speak about something that I daily take for granted.  My life.  Her story is worth hearing because it tears apart the leftist meme that pre born babies are just clumps of cells that don’t matter.

Information on the ad buy:

The initial ad is a $150,000 buy in Missouri, and shows a woman – Melissa Ohden – speaking to the camera about having been born alive in spite of an abortion procedure.

Abortion opponents have long decried Obama’s record in the Illinois legislature on regulating late-term abortions, but little money has been spent to advertise on the issue since he became president.

“Many children, more than you might think, actually survive failed abortions and are born alive. I know because I’m one of them,” Ohden says in the SBA List ad. “When he was in the Illinois state Senate, Barack Obama voted to deny basic constitutional protections for babies born alive from an abortion – not once, but four times.”

She concludes: “I know it’s by the grace of God I’m alive today, if only to ask America this question: is this the kind of leadership that will move us forward, that will discard the weakest among us? How will you answer?”
