Obama troubled by Oklahoma's botched execution of convicted killer, but not by Gosnell's abortions/murders of innocent babies

We learn today that President Obama is "troubled" by Oklahoma's botched execution of Clayton Lockett. As reported by the Christian Science Monitor:

    “In the application of the death penalty, we have seen significant problems,” such as racial bias and the execution of innocents, as well as the "deeply troubling" execution of Clayton Lockett, [President Obama] said, responding to a question at a joint press conference with German Chancellor Angela Merkel on Friday. “All these do raise significant questions about how the death penalty is being applied," he added. ... Lockett had been sentenced to death for shooting a 19-year-old woman and allowing his accomplices to bury her alive.

Where was Obama's sense of outrage and why did he remain silent when the horrors of the abortion mill run by Kermit Gosnell were being revealed? Apparently, Mr Obama finds it troubling that a man convicted of shooting an innocent woman and burying her alive should have to suffer during his execution, but he feels no compunction whatsoever when innocent unborn children are pithed during a partial birth abortion procedure or even murdered (their spinal columns "snipped") after they have been fully delivered.

The fact that Mr Obama expresses concern for the one practice while he blithely ignores the barbarity of the other is moral hypocrisy of the most revolting kind.
