Kellyanne Conway says she helped pay for a friend's abortion
AOL News ^ | March 21, 2017 | Anna Iovine

White House adviser Kellyanne Conway was recently profiled by New York Magazine about her life and role in Trump's presidency. The interview illuminated many previously unknown tidbits about Conway -- such as her nickname of "Blueberry."

One story of Conway's in particular struck a nerve with some. Conway identifies as pro-life, but told New York Magazine she's "sympathetic" to women who undergo the procedure.

"Do I know anybody who ever got an abortion? Well, of course I do. I've driven them there. I've helped pay," she told New York Magazine.

"You know, when you're young, you're thinking about the person, not the issue. We were younger, and I was focused on her, not on the larger public policy."(continued)

I'm plenty ready to be judged. That's what Catholic Confession does for us. But I would NEVER have helped kill a baby. She's gone from my A-list to F-list. God keeps a list, too.

You are so correct about God keeping the only list that counts for eternity... pity those that played devil's advocate and divined abortion rights in our Constitution...do you know who those supremes are?

“Well, of course I do. I’ve driven them there. I’ve helped pay...”

That sounds plural.

Not being a woman I don’t know how often that situation might happen.

More deflection and evasiveness. You accused her of bragging not having a lack of regret.

Thank you for reinforcing my previous assessment of you. Again.

Yes, the babies themselves make it all so clear.

I could never kill a baby especially after having two of my own.

Why would anyone believe what they are told..i.e. its a blob of flesh. Everyone knows better unless they don’t want to.

Unregenerate sinners will pay for every last sin they ever committed. The Bible promises that sinners will be forced to drink the cup of His wrath down to the very dregs. However, for those who put their complete trust in Christ alone, the Lord will forgive the most heinous sin, including abortion. I don’t know if Kellyanne is a true regenerate Christian or not, but if she is, you are keeping a list the Lord doesn’t keep. She didn’t sin against you. She sinned against the thrice holy God. If she’s repentant, why should you judge her more harshly than He? Those to whom grace has been shown have no right not to extend grace to others. I know I’m too big of a sinner to count the sins of others.

“As far as the east is from the west, so far hath he removed our transgressions from us.” (Psalm 103:12)

“So, as those who have been chosen of God, holy and beloved, put on a heart of compassion, kindness, humility, gentleness and patience; bearing with one another, and forgiving each other, whoever has a complaint against anyone; just as the Lord forgave you, so also should you.” Colossians 3:12-13

Thenbasic problem with Kellyanne, and why I think she’ll be gone sooner than later is that she is a loose cannon with very few personal boundaries.

She seems to think all the attention she’s getting is because who she is, when in fact, she’s getting attention because of President Trump and the news media knows that she’s enamored with talking about her self and that she’ll invariably keep shooting off her mouth talking about herself, and thereby make the president look bad.

She has no filters. And she needs some. She also needs to be Unobtrusive.

I should just put it in my profile page at this point. Ignore anything about other religions; think Rambam was pissy about forced conversions.

The good decisions and actions in our lives will outbalance the not so good ones. :)

The ultimate test of repentance is to be in the same exact situation again, and choose not to repeat the sin. For this we will be rewarded in this life.

Hashem commands us not to hold a grudge.

If you want my opinion on that subject, ask and I’ll do some research.

Respectfully yours,

the Lord will forgive the most heinous sin

The Lord can, not necessarily will. Depending on the state of grace of the soul at death, among other factors. But, for some, Purgatory provides a very handy "car wash for the soul", or cleansing process that permits some stained souls to ultimately reach heaven.

If she’s repentant, why should you judge her more harshly than He?

Others who closely watched and listened to her comments did not detect much repentance, more like a haughtiness or bravado.
