Sorry, I Thought I'd Seen A New Low, Nope, It Gets Worse

From my friend Jim Hoft at TheGatewayPundit:

“OBAMA USES DOWN SYNDROME WOMAN IN NEW AD…A WOMAN WHO WOULD BE ABORTED UNDER OBAMACARE”

Barack Obama used a woman with Down Syndrome in his latest campaign ad.
It’s his latest attempt at manipulating American voters.

But… It is odd that Obama would use a Down Syndrome woman in his commercials.
After all, his administration targets Down Syndrome babies for abortion under Obamacare.
LifeNews reported:

Discussions of HHS’s new regulation have focused on the required availability of free contraceptive services
under the Patient Protection and Affordable Care Act (PPACA). The
regulation is the result of HHS’s adopting, in its entirety, the
Institute of Medicine’s (IOM) report on Clinical Preventive Services for Women.
Buried in the IOM report is the recommendation for no-cost well-woman
visits; these visits include prenatal care–and thus prenatal testing for
“genetic or developmental conditions.” The regulation was issued as
part of the PPACA’s coverage of preventive services. This prompts the
question, how does prenatal testing prevent Down syndrome?

The IOM report defines preventive services “to be measures . . .
shown to improve wellbeing, and/or decrease the likelihood or delay the
onset of targeted disease or condition.” Down syndrome occurs at
conception. Prenatal testing simply identifies whether a pregnancy is
positive for Down syndrome–a prenatal diagnosis after which most women
choose to terminate their pregnancy. A prenatal test does not decrease
the likelihood of Down syndrome in a person; it does allow for a
decreased likelihood of a person with Down syndrome surviving beyond the
womb. If this is how HHS is justifying prenatal testing for Down
syndrome as preventive care, then HHS has ushered in a program meant to
target future children like Juliet.

The targeted elimination of people with Down syndrome is, in fact,
the goal of other countries that have adopted nationwide prenatal
testing programs–a goal some other countries are now realizing. Indeed,
according to the Copenhagen Post,
Denmark “could be a country without a single citizen with Down’s
syndrome in the not too distant future,” due to its nationwide prenatal
screening program, in place since 2004.

In other words, Obama is just using this woman for his political gain.
