This afternoon I'll be discussing Barack Obama's opposition to the IL Born Alive Infants Protection Act on Sean Hannity's radio show at 4:05p EST. You can listen live online.

Last night Hannity announced on the Hannity and Colmes Fox cable news show I would appear on Hannity's America next Sunday night. Be warned, however, that no concrete plans have been set for the interview.

Hannity made the announcement during a panel discussion on Obama's opposition to Born Alive. At least 2 panelists were previously unaware, and their response was interesting. Watch through to the end. The abortion/Born Alive issue keeps popping up.

Here's a good one.

The 1,710 word book-column at FindLaw.com looks impressive on the surface, written by Sherry Colb, "a Professor of Law and Charles Evans Hughes Scholar at Cornell Law School."

Cornell, my.

The only problem with Colb's attempt to clear Obama of his pro-infanticide position is she referenced the wrong bill. I couldn't believe it....

Colb linked to "a 2002 proposed law entitled the "Illinois Induced Birth Infant Liability Act," Senate Bill 1661.

But the correct comparison to the federal Born Alive Infants Protection Act would be Senate Bill 1662, "Born-Alive Infant Defined."

No wonder the bills didn't match up.

Couldn't have been purposeful misrepresentation, could it?

From the Associated Press, August 14:

A pregnant New York City traffic agent was struck by a van, run over by a bus and killed on Thursday, but doctors were able to save her baby.

Police said Donnette Sanz, 33, was 7 months pregnant when she was struck by a van in the Bronx and pushed in front of a bus, which ran her over.

Witnesses said onlookers lifted the bus and pulled Sanz from under it...

Doctors at a nearby hospital saved Sanz' 3-pound son by doing an emergency Caesarean section. The boy was in critical condition.

Police arrested the 72-year-old van driver, and said charges were pending....

Mayor Michael Bloomberg offered his condolences to Sanz' husband. Bloomberg said he hopes as the child grows up, he will come to understand his mother gave her life serving the city.

I pray the baby lives, which would be a miracle coming out of this tragedy. I'm sure with all their hearts Sanz' husband and family want this part of her to survive.

What if this mom had been hit while on her way to an abortion?
