"Practicing Catholic" Nancy Pelosi Calls Late Term Abortion "Sacred Ground"

Pelosi: Late-term abortions 'sacred'

Pelosi falsely claimed two things in her response.

1) Legislation being considered in the House bans abortion past 20 weeks. Pelosi said the legislation would ban all abortions.

2) Pelosi said Gosnell is an isolated case, which isn't true. LiveAction and LifeNews have extensively reported and documented cases of abortionists all over the country who consistently operate in similar ways as Gosnell did.

President of the pro-life Susan B. Anthony List Marjorie Dannenfelser released the following statement in response to Pelosi's comments.
 

“As a mother and practicing Catholic, I have a modest proposal for Mrs. Pelosi: that she consider the Church's teaching which says each life is sacred and reject the idea that each abortion is."

Senior Policy Advisor for The Catholic Association Maureen Ferguson has also released a statement in response.

“After witnessing firsthand the atrocious human rights abuses taking place inside America's late-term abortion clinics it is amazing that this did not touch Nancy Pelosi's heart. What we learned from the Gosnell trial and what we understand is going on inside other clinics is not only human rights abuse but it also puts women in harm’s way. The only difference between the Gosnell ‘after-birth’ abortions and legal late-term abortions is the location of the baby at the time of death. And contrary to Pelosi's extreme claim that the Franks bill is ‘disrespectful’ to women, the majority of women are opposed to late-term abortions according to a recent Gallup poll."

No conscience. No soul. But all the worldly goods that she sold her soul for will not matter in a few short years.

Amend to that dude.

Ansel, your statement is a lie and against the rules of the religion forum by claiming that all who belong to a religious group follow your lie. I and the other fr Catholics did not vote d, hence your statement is not only a violation of fr rules, but also a lie. RM, do note and delete this, ansel consistently violates this rule

LOL, it isn’t a “lie”, it is the kind of casual statement that people frequently make and if they notice that they left off the qualifier, they don’t sweat it much, knowing that sane people on a political forum knows that it means the majority, as in blacks vote democrat, Texans are extremely handsome people, Californians are liberal, gays like youth, TV is for saps.

You could have corrected it if it annoyed you, without revealing so much of yourself and releasing that anger, and in such a nasty, attacking manner.

Actually it is a lie to make a blanket statement accusing all fr Catholics of a falsehood. Take a poll of fr and 0% voted d. I was pointing out to the rm your persistent breaking of the fr rules which are quite clear as.narses pointed out in his thread

**Catholics vote pro-abortion democrat.**

You cannot make a blanket statement like that about all Catholics!

So freaky that you call for the religion moderator to come over to news/activism to see what a bad boy some poster is in your eyes.

Yeah, you are some impressive guy there a real man among men.

You might want to lighten up a little, if you wanted to correct it, you don’t need all the drama and hysterics, and pinging to people, and calling out to the religion moderator to come over here and see, and all the ridiculous theatrics.

tsk, tsk... Ansel, not only ignoring 1 RM rule Your original claim was flame baiting and "making it personal" because it extended the claim beyond the publicly accused to "the church" which entails all members individually - some of whom are Freepers.
Do not flame bait and do not make it personal.

but now another -- didn't you read the little blurb at the bottom before posting which reads NO personal attacks?

And yet both are persistently violated.

tsk.. tsk...

Let’s divert attention away from this rule issue and get back to cracking jokes about Pelosi.

Jimmy Carter formally and officially left the Southern Baptists many years ago and has repeatedly written about it, something that you forgot but at one time knew, Bill Clinton is no longer counted as Southern Baptist as far as I know since he quit attending them many, many years ago, I believe that they would no longer count him as SB.

Catholic Nancy Pelosi was just personally received by the Catholic Pope himself at the Vatican, and she received Holy Communion there, she is very Catholic.

I try not to judge according to Gospel, but when sinners are blatant about their sins
and parade them to all, it's impossible not to.

Either give it a rest or go get a room. No one cares about your personal feuds.

Take a poll of fr and 0% voted d.

While this may be factually true, there are PLENTY of FR who have made the accusation that if you did NOT vote for Romney; then you DID vote for Obama.
