CNN Commentator: Unborn Babies Not Entitled to Protection Because They Can't Talk!
NewsBusters ^ | Mark Finkelstein

[snip]

Irin Carmon, a CNN commentator and author of the Ruth Bader Ginsburg hagiography, Notorious RBG, spoke with CNN This Morning host Audie Cornish today regarding her pro-abortion rights book, Unbearable: Five Women and the Perils of Pregnancy in America.

At one point, Cornish did describe a pro-life position:

"Their argument is that both the unborn child and the person giving birth are equal. People that need to be protected. Right?"

Responded Carmon:

"In practice, it's very hard to make a 50/50 decision between one person who is able to actually speak to you, and one who is a potential person in practice. It does mean that the person ends up getting treated like a vessel."

By that logic, if the mother is a vessel, the unborn are detritus who can be thrown overboard at any point, for any reason.

For a professional writer to say something as callous, and vacuous for a serious answer, is stunning.

Neither look like normal,”women”.

I am surprised they actually found five women, they can’t define what they are, so...

"It does mean that the person ends up getting treated like a vessel."

Spoken by somebody who freely chooses to be a vessel of pure evil.

Some things are so ridiculous, ghastly, or galling that even the BEE dares not approach. However, we can always rely on CNN, the cast of fools. Sad, but sooooo true.

Thats not what she said. I suppose one could say thats what she implied. Its really irritating when people spin things like this to fit their desired narrative. Still...the lady being interviewed is a cold witch. Cant imagine who would live with her and be happy.

Using that as a qualifer, that includes a lot more than just babies. But why stop there? How about we include thse who make no sense when they talk, or speak. We can include those who do not speak English, for the majority they are unable to speak understandably.

Perhaps we need to include those with whom we disagree with what they have to say. By the time we are done, there will be few remaining alive.

The elites will celebrate, because now they will have it all.

"CNN Commentator: Unborn Babies Not Entitled to Protection Because They Can't Talk!"

Then why are babies born to illegals considered citizens when they're born if they can't talk?

Neither can Joe Biden but that doesn’t mean we should harm him.

Backward logic

Hmm OK. Lets apply that to illegal emigrants who speak English.
