NARAL President: ‘Anti-Abortion Is Anti-American’

Everybody says something stupid and offensive at one time or another. But it takes a special kind of ideologue to turn it into a speech repeated over and over. And that ideologue is NARAL Pro-Choice America President Ilyse Hogue. 

We missed it the first time she told a crowd that pro-lifers are “un-American.” That was at a Feb. 4 event in Washington, D.C. marking the pro-abortion group’s 45th anniversary (see video below). But Hogue liked it so much she said it again in San Francisco on March 4, at an event featuring Sandra Fluke, America’s most famous birth control user.

And lest anyone miss Hogue’s eloquence, NARAL tweeted it on March 6: “‘That, my friends, is not anti-abortion -- what it is is anti-American.’ - @ilyseh on current anti-choice efforts in the US.#NARAL45.” Continues after video.

NARAL President: 'Anti-Abortion Is Anti-American

Hogue began her rant by explaining how the Miriam-Webster definition of the word “obsessive” “totally fits” the pro-life movement. In the middle of her speech, Hogue ironically lamented: 

Because what they really care about is telling women and all people for that matter, that it’s their way or the highway, that there’s only one ‘right way’ for us to live our lives, and that they get to decide what that is. And that, my friends, is un-American. But we know, and guess what, they know too, that the American people are on our side. 

And if you don’t like abortion, the answer is more sex! “If the anti-choice movement really wants to stop abortion, like they claim,” Hogue said, “they should join hand in hand with us to promote birth control and comprehensive sex-ed. But time after time after time, they vote against these common sense tools.”

Hogue concluded, “America thrives when no one is allowed to impose their personal morality on others. That is the essence of the religious liberty that we prize.” And babies thrive when no one is allowed to kill them in the womb. That’s the kind of liberty we should all prize.

If there is ANYTHING that is anti-American, it is killing a defenseless child in the womb.

“America thrives when no one is allowed to impose their personal morality on others.”

Total ignorance. Laws of any kind on any subject are imposing someone’s morality on someone else.

It just so happens that the unborn are not being taxed without representation, but KILLED without representation.

It’s those that are being and will be born that are being taxed without representation.

These people are trying to deconstruct Americanism and redefine it in Leftist terms.

It’s worked for everything else.

It’s even worked to redefine Christianity to celebrate sexual depravity and moral turpitude.

Now, every time a Christian leader says anything compassionate, it’s taken as tabula rasa for every ridiculous left wing notion.

Americanism is the last icon.

It must be deconstructed and redefined in order to complete their revolution.

That evil bitch and ALL the so-called PRO-CHOICERS had better take a look at The Declaration of Independence, particularly the line that says "endowed by their Creator with certain unalienable rights, that among them are Life, Liberty, and The Pursuit of Happiness" before they label any Pro-Lifer as "un-American"!

So-called pro-choice advocates denying life, so THAT is un-American!

No, its a total lie. The left is all too happy to impose their morals/ethics on the rest of us. Yet, they’re completely unwilling to entertain anyone else’s views. In their view their morals/ethics are settled not open for debate. Everything about the left is a lie...its their native language.

Does anyone else find "guess what" annoying? No matter who says it?

UN-American?! Did you say UN-American?!!!

Cue Shillary ... I am sick and tired of people who say that if you debate and you disagree with this evil spawn of Margaret Sanger you're not patriotic and we should stand up and say that we are Americans and we have a RIGHT to debate and disagree with ANY spawn of Satan.

Pro-abortion is genocidal murder, crimes against humanity, and treason.

A mother not killing her preborn child is UnAmerican? No wonder we are reading about women driving their children into the ocean and river. They have been led to believe children are expendable when we don’t want them for whatever reason. Susan Smith had at least one abortion, maybe two, before she had the two precious little boys that she ended up killing. If killing your child in the womb is OK, then why not after they’ve been born?

The naral gang is the most vicious, man-hating, self-hating raging fang-tooth bunch of feminazis on this planet.

A on-going Holocaust that dwarfs the Nazis and the Soviets and is in the running to catch the Chinese.

That is an America that I would want to be against.

“That, my friends, is not anti-abortion — what it is anti-American.”

Ok...so the logic line on this is really hard to follow. So let me get this straight, KILLING and un-born (American) baby is American. But letting it live, letting the un-born defenseless baby live is anti-American.

Shaking head back in forth in absolute wonder...how, just how can someone be so dumb. How can anyone be so evil.

Besides defending your country...protecting the life of a baby is THE most American thing you can do.

I bet that woman is a real fun date — Probably obsessed with killing babies.

Killing 50 million Americans in a mass genocide is somehow “pro-American”?!?!?!?!

She must study Goebbels even harder than the MSNBC Socialists.

Clearly, Congress needs to form a committee — the House Anti-American Activities Committee, perhaps.

“Are you now, or have you ever been a member of any Right-to-life organization?”

“Have you ever counselled anyone to not have an abortion?”

“Are you a member of any organization opposed to abortion; or, do you associate with any known members of such organizations?”

I guess she was having an abortion when “life, liberty and the pursuit of happiness” was discussed
