Fox News’ Ed Henry Presses Jay Carney For Obama’s Response To Kermit Gosnell Trial, Abortion...
Mediaite ^ | 4/15/2013 | Meenal Vamburkar

Fox News’ Ed Henry asked White House Press Secretary Jay Carney to respond to the Kermit Gosnell murder today. While President Obama is “aware” of the case, Carney said he couldn’t comment further. Henry pressed further, however, questioning the president’s past stance on an abortion bill as well as future legislation.

“The president is aware of this,” Carney replied to Henry’s initial question about the case. “The president does not and cannot take a position on an ongoing trial. So I won’t as well.”

In 2003, Henry went on to recall, Obama “voted against a bill that would provide medical care, as I understand, to babies who would be born after a botched abortion like this. Obama didn’t support it then, he added, because “he felt like any doctor in that situation would take care of a child.”

Hearing evidence from the Gosnell trial, he then asked, which suggests at least one doctor did not care for children in that situation, “Is there some legislative solution, or at least a conversation, that needs to happen in Washington?”

Alluding to Carney’s call for “common-sense reform” on guns, Henry asked, “In this case, do we need to be saving lives as well?”

Carney again noted that Henry was relating his question to a case that neither he nor the president could comment on. Obama’s “position on choice is very clear,” he added, noting the principle that abortions should be “safe, legal, and rare.”

Henry tried one more time to get a more substantial answer from the press secretary, asking whether Obama believes there should be some type of reform without restricting abortion rights — such as legislation to protect babies born after a botched abortion procedure.

“You’re asking for hypotheticals about legislation or proposed legislation that I haven’t seen, so it’s hard for me to comment on it,” Carney said.

So now we know the president is “aware.” A for effort, Ed Henry.

Naturally, the Kenyan won't take a position on Gosnell. Since he agrees and historically has supported Gosnell.

We all know the President’s stand.

Watching Jay Carney slip and slide is like watching an ice hockey game played in leather soled shoes on slippery ice.

I do not know how Carney sleeps at night after lying his ass off day after day for the Kenyan.

That is total BS! Anyone can express an opinion outside the court room.

100% Correct

"The police acted stupidly"

Paraphrased; If I had a son, he would look like Treyvon.

Too bad Ed Henry didn't have the balls to counter with the last one. What I would have paid to have seen it.

Here is the direct question to ask. Does the president think slitting the neck of a newborn who survives an abortion procedure ok? Yes or no?

Some in this thread actually think that evilcrats own their souls... a satanic contract relinquished those rights. evilcrats are ALL soul-less demons of hell.

Matthew 7:15-20

New King James Version (NKJV)

You Will Know Them by Their Fruits

(15) “Beware of false prophets, who come to you in sheep’s clothing, but inwardly they are ravenous wolves. 16 You will know them by their fruits. Do men gather grapes from thornbushes or figs from thistles? 17 Even so, every good tree bears good fruit, but a bad tree bears bad fruit. 18 A good tree cannot bear bad fruit, nor can a bad tree bear good fruit. 19 Every tree that does not bear good fruit is cut down and thrown into the fire. 20 Therefore by their fruits you will know them."

Exactly. I do believe he has made comments on Trayvon case. Has that case been completed yet?

Ask “given that then Illannoys state senator 0bama voted against the born alive act, does the _resident maintain that position in regards to the gosnell trial?”

The POTUS as a senator voted to exterminate the lives of babies who survived abortion.

Michael Voris has an excellent piece up on his site at ChurchMilitant.TV where he talks about the failure of the Catholic clergy and describes them as wolves in shepherds clothing. Very good and you can watch it here.

It is appropriate that the White House press secretary is a Carnie because that is usually who works for a CIRCUS!

This should be publicized more than it is, for the sake of all the “pro-choice” women who fall for the propaganda and intentionally get pregnant with the intent of aborting. They’re basically volunteering to produce children to be used for slaking the blood thirst of monsters like this.

Abortionists do not care about women and, in fact, are deeply misogynist. Their actions display that fact quite starkly.

“he added, noting the principle that abortions should be “safe, legal, and rare.”

So when do you libs start making obortions rare? Tomorrow or a week from now?

Obama can’t comment because he agrees with Gosnell and the killing of babies.

In addition to knifing, poisoning and crushing unborn babies ---- in addition to beheading and mutilating distressed, squirming, whimpering newborns --- Gosnell also left a whole lot women perforated, sexually maimed, infected with venereal diseases, in shock from blood loss, septic, sterile, and/or dead.

I hope that because of the coverage, many many women will come forward and sue, not just Gosnell, but also every individual in the various city, county, and state boards of Public Health, licensing agencies, city code enforcement, what-have-you, who should have shut this guy down decades ago.

I want each and every one of them on the stand. I want answers from each and every one of them. And I want them punished in an exemplary way as a message to a callous, jaded nation.
