Stay sexy, Jan.

There are a lot of things in life to get exasperated about. The rude guy who cuts in front of you on the highway, a person who is loudly talking on the phone at a restaurant, or people who chew with their mouth open.
But Democrat congresswoman Jan Schakowsky is exasperated about the fact that Republicans continue to push for a vote on a bill to stop infanticide.
As LifeNews has reported, Democrats, led by Nancy Pelosi, have blocked a bill to protect babies who are born alive after abortions and provide them with appropriate medical Ccre and treatment a total of 28 times. Earlier this week, Republicans led an effort to to get petition signatures for a discharge petition to bring the bill to the floor.
That was the last straw for Schakowsky:
Politico is providing cover for Democrats desperately trying to avoid a vote on the Born-Alive Abortion Survivors Protection Act, which Republicans are trying to bring to a floor vote via a discharge petition. Melanie Zanona writes, “House Republicans on Tuesday launched a long-shot bid to force a vote on anti-abortion legislation — an issue they plan to hammer vulnerable Democrats on even if they can’t secure action on the floor.”
She reports a statement from Rep. Jan Schakowsky (D-Ill.) regarding the discharge petition: “Oh, my g-d. They just will not quit. . . I think politically, it’s a really bad move for them, and substantively, it’s a disaster.”
The desperation of this statement is almost palpable. Pushing the issue is anything but a bad move for Republicans.
The federalist author puts things into perspective for Schakowsky:
This purpose of this bill is not to limit the abortion entitlement, however. As freshman Rep. Dan Crenshaw of Texas put it:
What this bill says is during an attempted abortion, and the baby is actually born alive, should the doctor actually save it? Now the next question you might ask is, why are we doing this? Is this a question that actually needs answering? Well no actually, because of policies proposed in Virginia and New York and Vermont, we feel that we actually have to put this into law. We actually have to put into law that a baby born with ten fingers and ten toes and a heartbeat, a baby that is breathing, deserves to live because it has value, because it is a human life.
While this bill does not directly threaten the legality of abortion whatsoever, the misinformation should still be addressed, because the truth leads to startlingly ugly conclusion about the motivations of Democrats in opposing the bill—and those do have to do with abortion.
The optics are actually bad for Democrats.
The blocking of a vote on a bill to stop infanticide comes even as national polling shows Americans — including people who are “pro-choice” on abortion — oppose abortion up to birth and infanticide. Vast majorities of Americans reject abortion the day before a child is born (80%), abortion in the third trimester (79%), and removing medical care for a viable child after birth (82%).
If Schakowsky, Pelosi and Democrats think the best political move is to stand with the 18 percent of Americans who think denying newborn infants medical care is a good thing, Republicans and pro-life advocates won’t stand in her way.
I remember when all of the NY congress stood up and cheared when they went full abortion, now we are to morn their deaths for the wrath they called upon themselves? Sorry but if the innocents mean nothing then what value do the dying sinners have?
Child deaths through abortions are outpacing COVID deaths.
Schakowsky the ghoul.
Stay sexy, Jan.
IIRC the democrats at one point called this postpartum abortion. If so, how far do you extend the timeline; An hour...a day...a week... ten years...fifty years? Maybe it’s a way of getting rid of the nagging voices advocating murder.
“She persisted.”
“Oh My God, They Just Will Not Quit”
Scary to think of what her god might be.
Would she be so repulsed if this were a bill withholding medical care for newborn puppies? I doubt it. These people are evil.
Think carefully about it.
18% think they should be able to murder live, breathing, crying babies on a table. Sounds like some sort of primitive pagan sacrifice from 500 years ago, doesn’t it? Except that it is 21st century America. Presumably one of the most free and enlightened countries in the history of the world
Who here thinks these same people are not capable of loading YOU onto a box car to a camp where you will be gassed? That they are not capable of instituting their own version of The Cultural Revolution? Who here thinks that a person who murders live babies on a table wouldn’t murder adults who inconveniently disagree with them? The Killing Fields was not fiction. Do you know that they tied people to trees and beat them to death in order to save ammo?
Until they can do algebra?
The image in the movie on that of the Cambodian who walked on the skulls of his dead countrymen was just about too much for me. And to think, he REALLY WAS the guy who escaped by doing that.
I cannot imagine.
“Damn you deplorables...STOP trying to make us stop murdering babies.”
What a “person.”
“Jan Schakowsky is exasperated about the fact that Republicans continue to push for a vote on a bill to stop infanticide.”
Satan’s army just can’t be happy without killing the innocent.
And hopefully, they will NEVER, ever give up!
This evil practice needs to stop!
We are in desperate need of the Boondock Saints in every city.
My daughter backpacked through Cambodia at 17 in 2002 and brought back pictures of the trees I referred to; she brought back pictures of the cases and cases of skulls on display that could not be identified beyond being child or adult.
The absurd irony in America is that those who claim to be most appalled are the ones most likely to be the ones to commit such atrocities, given the opportunity.
Keep your weapons AND (you must) be willing to use them. In the final analysis nothing else will protect you from them - certainly not the ballot box. Not your elected “leaders” who so disdain you and the Constitution.
Children ain’t worth what d’ey wuz.
In these days, I wonder how many babies bin done in by a woman, till she meets dah man would be dah right daddy?
I know that they will kill you and me. And laugh and joke as they do it. If you don’t believe it, wait until they get back in power.
Jan can go abort herself!
