Comedian Lizz Winstead Hosts Telethon to Raise Money for Abortions
Life News ^ | Katie Yoder

Posted on 11/18/2013 9:28:07 PM PST by Morgana

Actresses, comedians, women empowerment, laughter – why it must be an abortion party!

In her latest piece, titled “Hello, Texas? Abortion Rights Calling,” The D

aily Beast’s Sally Kohn advertised an telethon to raise money for “abortion services” in Texas, the “land of Wendy Davis and Jane Roe.” The Nov. 18 event boasts big names, including comedians Lizz Winstead and Sarah Silverman as well as NARAL Pro-Choice America. Oh, and hers truly, Sally Kohn.

Kohn publicized the “Clear Eyes, Full Hearts, Can Choose” telethon to her readers: “Monday night you’re invited to laugh and feel powerful” (because that’s what abortion does, right?) to unite “with millions of women across the country who trust women to make their own decisions.”

Texas, she explained, is “ground zero in the abortion fight.” “That saying ‘Don’t Mess With Texas’? It has an equally threat-laden flip side: Texas shouldn’t mess with women,” she warned.

After lamenting over the 53 “anti-choice laws” recently introduced to states, she turned to Obamacare. “We should all feel appalled by the deep irony that while Republicans are trying to kill the Affordable Care Act based on their criticism that the law forces Americans to have health insurance they may not want, many of the same conservatives are trying to force women to have babies they may not want.” Obamacare, infanticide, what’s the difference?

She continued her rant, “Conservatives accuse liberals of pushing the nanny state, but there is nothing more controlling and paternalistic than restricting the decisions that women, especially low-income women of color, can make with respect to their own bodies.”

CLICK LIKE IF YOU’RE PRO-LIFE!

“One by one, millions of American women have been standing up and speaking up for comprehensive reproductive justice—yes, including the right to all women have an abortion if they choose,” she advocated. (She mustn’t have seen that only 26% of Americans agree abortion should be legal under any circumstance…)

The Daily Beast has produced MRC fodder before, from proclaiming that to women that in vitro is a ‘f**king good alternative’ to men to advising Americans to cut Weiner some slack for sexting (after all, teens do it all the time).

This is a true abomination and when I read these things I hear the voice of Rev Wright screaming. I was going to suggest that Secret Agent Man re-post his most insightful and True statement at a source. So I searched for one and the first one is their facebook page. The comments are horrendous and oh, so ignorant. It is so overwhelming for me that the only thing I can do right now is say the Lord’s prayer...Thy will be done, even if it means the fall of this nation. If the Constitution and the freedom of men to rule themselves through a republic continues to allow this, then I say let it end.

The evil in this world is unspeakable.

I long to die before the full consequences of the evil in this country fall on us.

Think about this. The “comedians” in the article think that infanticide is trivial and a real laugh riot. What darkness must lurk in their hearts for them to think this way.

Well, sweetums, one is the compulsory purchase of a commercial product while the other is the deliberate murder of a human being. I know that the distinction is jolly difficult for you to grok, but give it a try.

It isn’t your own body. It doesn’t have your DNA. You might own a building but you can’t kill the tenant renting it, either.

Not only that but these alleged women are stupid.

Do they not KNOW who "Jane Roe" is?

She's a pro-life activist.

And she never had an abortion. She ended up giving birth to a baby girl, who was adopted.

“Conservatives accuse liberals of pushing the nanny state, but there is nothing more controlling and paternalistic than restricting the decisions that women, especially low-income women of color, can make with respect to their own bodies.”

Nothing like coming right out and saying that they want to kill the colored babies.

I wonder what they would think if the KKK raised money for black women to have abortions.
