House Dem Accuses Republicans of Wanting Women to Die From Unsafe Abortions [Barbara Lee]
Washington Free Beacon ^ | 1/24/17 | Cameron Cawthorne

Posted on 01/24/2017 7:37:32 PM PST by markomalley

Rep. Barbara Lee (D., Calif.) accused Congressional Republicans on Tuesday of wanting women to die from “unsafe abortions” while she spoke in opposition to H.R. 7.

“Madam Speaker, I rise in strong opposition to H.R. 7. This discriminatory bill would undermine a woman’s access to abortion care, which is a Constitutional right, as affirmed by Roe v. Wade, 44 years ago,” Rep. Lee said.

Lee said that by Republicans making the Hyde Amendment permanent, they would be “restricting access“ to reproductive health care for millions of women, especially low-income and minority women. The Hyde Amendment prevents federal funds from being allocated towards the funding of abortions.

Lee then recalled her days working as a staffer on Capitol Hill where she remembered the days of back-alley abortions.

“Clearly, Republicans are trying to take us back to the days when women died from unsafe abortions in this country,” she said. “Women should be able to make their own decisions about reproductive health care, including abortions, without members of Congress or employers interfering.”

Someone should show the footage of an actual partial-birth abortion on the floor of the House and Senate. To get it in the record and force these goons to see what they support.

Planned Parenthood and the pro-abort crowd want women to die from abortion. How do I know, enact laws that require PP to obtain access to hospitals for emergencies when they botch an abortion.

PP doesn’t want women and minors to know that they still botch abortions even when they are legal. Go home, walk it off. Put some ice on that...

What is it with Democrats and abortion? I mean, seriously...they will fight literally to the death for the right to continue to kill unborn babies. It’s borderline Satanic.

So, they want me to have pity on a woman who dies while in the process of killing her child. I think not.

Well it seems that federal dollars make abortions safer than state dollars, or private fund dollars.

They’ve killed 58 million Americans so far but there are still too many bitter clingers to the notion of America and the Constitution.

‘More hold outs must die.’

Funny how the Weather Underground only estimated 25million hold outs that couldn’t be re-educated and would have to be murdered...

Check out Moloch

Leviticus 18:21 “And thou shalt not let any of thy seed pass through the fire to Molech, neither shalt thou profane the name of thy God: I am the LORD.”

“Women should be able to make their own decisions about reproductive health care, including abortions, without members of Congress or employers interfering.”

If Federal money is involved, then that constitutes interference by Congress.

Yes 58 million dead babies and 60 Million LEGAL immigrants since 1970.

Is there a connection?

Doing the jobs dead Americans can’t do.

The number of Americans who want women to die from unsafe abortions is approximately zero.

So the first thing for you to do, Barbara Lee, is to stop telling extremely offensive lies.

What about the 500,000 little girl babies murdered each year by abortionists, their staffs and the babies mothers?

I still want to make a SciFi movie about a ProLife activist who takes a Time Machine back to visit with the mothers and grandmothers of today’s rabid abortion advocates.

Film the female ancestors reading & watching the ranting of their progeny, then ask if they would consider listening to their arguments and abort the rabid “ProChoicer”?

The ProLife lady returns to the Present and shows the film to the Abortion Advocate, telling them “I left your mother/grandmother just before she made the decision to abort. If I leave within 30 minutes, I can arrive back in time to tell her you’ve publicly changed your mind, and talk her out of it.

Otherwise, as we Time Travelers say, “Pffft - you’re history. Actually, you never would have been, so that’s not exactly accurate.”

“Choose wisely!”

Women to Die From Unsafe Abortions...

Even in the so-called "safe" abortions, somebody dies.

Oxymoron redundant phrase.

Ever had an abortion and the baby lived?
