Kirsten Powers: I've got news for Democrats. It's a baby!
RealClear Politics ^ | August 5, 2015 | Kirsten Powers

Rally in front of Planned Parenthood in Columbia, Mo., on July 28, 2015.

Democrats like to talk about the importance of being on the “right side of history.”...Yet when faced with a series of videos detailing grotesque human rights abuses against unborn children by Planned Parenthood doctors, Democratic Party forces have eschewed all concern for historical or moral rightness.

Pope Francis has correctly described the unborn as “the most defenseless and innocent among us.” But in the sordid tale of strategic crushing of the unborn to better harvest their hearts, lungs and livers, many Democrats have incredibly cast an organization with a roughly $1.3 billion annual budget in the role of the innocent and defenseless. Hillary Clinton emerged as Planned Parenthood’s highest profile protector Monday, decrying the “assault” against her allegedly helpless campaign donors.

The Democratic Party shilling for barbarism...

[big snip]

When Gallup asked in 2012 whether abortion should be legal in the second trimester, only 27 percent of respondents said yes. This percentage has been nearly unchanged since Gallup began asking this question in 1996. As Slate’s Will Saletan noted in a 2014 piece analyzing abortion polling, “Even the most pro-choice people aren’t sold on abortion rights beyond the first trimester.”

This was the general position even prior to the release of videos demonstrating the harsh reality of such abortions. Following the meeting with Dr. Ginde, the undercover video makers are taken to a Planned Parenthood pathology lab where a medical assistant called “Jess” picks at an aborted fetus. “I just want to see another leg, with a foot,” she says. Ginde chimes in: “Here’s the heart.” At one point Dr. Ginde inexplicably murmurs: “It’s a baby.”

Even the abortionist can see it’s a baby. So what’s wrong with the Democratic Party?

Of interest because it shows the growing prolife passion of Kirsten Powers.

She used to be what-they-call "pro-choice".

So when somebody says "they're soul-less, they'll never convert, they'll never admit they're wrong," remember that every "pro-choicer" is a potential pro-lifer. We have to pray for them and help them see the truth.

Have been following her transformation. Problem is she is hired as a liberal/democrat pundit (as is Juan -two sons conservative) They must repeat the talking points to keep their jobs. Obviously she has a moral line she will not cross. Sounds like she is on her way to becoming a conservative

Because the Democrat Party is not totally radical Communists now Kirsten who built the Soviet Union on a Mountain of Bodies.

Because they are Pure Ideologues who will nothing get in the way of Party Doctrine.

That is why.

They say, those "fetuses" are already dead, so what's the problem?

Those "fetuses" were not actually "babies" anyway!

They say, "why discard those fetuses?" when they can used for "study" and "science" by the Joseph Mengele doctors of today.

The proponents and supporters of abortion and PP, have no souls and the doctors that perform the abortions are knowingly and willfully breaking the medical oath's.

Planned Parenthood is this unholy, gruesome, horrific CRIME of selling innocent, murdered bodies and their parts to the highest bidder, by a tax-payer funded Abortion Mill.

Democrats:

The wretches of our society, no matter what they have done should not be put to death.

Democrats:

The most innocent human beings possible, should have their brains vacuumed out, be ripped limb from limb, and their body parts be auctioned off to the highest bidder.

Democrats:

List of entities deserving of more love than fetuses...

Puppies
Kittens
Dogs
Cats
Any wild animal
The Manson family
Juan Corona
William Bonin
John Wayne Gacy
Kenneth Bianchi and Angelo Buono
Any bad guy in a Clint Eastwood movie

Anyone on this list

They’ll defend killers for decades and can’t show two seconds of remorse for the unborn.

TexPat gets it out of his system for Not On This Watch-

My takeaways from engaging feminist/liberals on the abortion topic:

#1: It's only a "baby" if the mother wants it, and then only after it departs the womb. Up until that time it is a "fetus." It is not politically correct to ask, "When is your baby due?" The correct way to phrase it is "When is your fetus due to become a baby?"

#2: Life only begins when the "fetus" becomes "viable" (i.e., can live outside of the womb). Up until that time it is not life and can be terminated based only upon the decision of the mother. You must never use the word "killed."

#3: The mother's consent is all that is needed to allow the abortion facility to use the extracted materials to be sold, repurposed, examined, or otherwise experimented upon. Because the "fetus" is not a "life" it has no human rights (i.e., unalienable rights), and therefore no consent is required for the fetus to become an involuntary organ donor, or to donate its body to science.

#4: Convenience is a perfectly legitimate reason to elect to have an abortion. No further justification is needed.

#5: The definition of "pro-choice" does not include the choices to abstain from sexual relations, nor does it include the choice to use contraception. It only applies to the "right" to choose to terminate the pregnancy. (And you are a bigot, elitist, religious nutjob seeking to impose your own values upon others if you suggest otherwise.)

#6: There is a right to consequence-free sexual relations, which includes consequence-free abortion and the relinquishment of all guilt that might come along with it. ("Pro-Choice" really means "Pro-Consequence Avoidance." They have just chosen a more politically correct term for it.)

#7: "Life, Liberty and the Pursuit of Happiness" is a justification for abortion, because it is the mother's rights to her life, liberty and happiness that prevails. Since the "fetus" is not life, it has no such rights. (Oh, and DON'T ever make them read the first part of the Life, Liberty and Happiness" sentence that mentions the Creator, because then you are imposing religion upon them. That part of the sentence doesn't count. And don't read the first paragraph of the Declaration that talks about the Laws of Nature and of Nature's God. Oh, and they often also believe that these phrases come from the Constitution.)

#8: "Most scientists agree that viability is at about 7 months." Science is now based upon consensus and expert opinion, not proven facts. So the very nature of science has been altered. In addition, don't mention about "how" life begins (a process that CAN be proven scientifically), because that process begins about 7 months before "when" the life begins. (Yeah, I know, wrap your head around that logic.)

#9: The male's contribution to the pregnancy is irrelevant, regardless of the fact that he donated 50% of the fetus' chromosomes.

#10: Abortions must be funded through taxpayer donations because of the "rights" that must be protected by the government. (See #7.)

#11: The grand finale: There are times when abortion is the BEST THING FOR THE BABY!!


What an education I've had. Now I'll go throw up.

You know, after seeing and reading about PP, not that I wasn’t aware before, mind you, I’m all in favor of abortion. The retroactive kind. And I don’t need the Pope to tell me that these children are the most innocent and defenseless of humans. To anyone with a soul and brain, it should be self evident!

So yea, I’m all for retroactive abortions. I’m sorry, that may not be very Christian of me, but this is beyond the pale.

What mystifies me is in this ‘age of enlightenment’, with teenagers having smart phones, computers, the internet, and sex education for kidergartners, that they can’t figure out HOW TO NOT GET PREGNANT in the first place.

Their line in the sand is the hospital door. If the baby leaves the hospital alive, it is protected.

Our line in the sand is conception. Protection starts there.

Both lines are ridiculous expectations, at least in the short term.

Why can’t someone propose an absolute x number of weeks that we all can agree on?

Even if one does not believe in god how can they claim drilling into a baby's head to kill it in the womb is a matter of choice?

I mean would they consider drilling into a baby's head when it is on the outside of the womb a matter of choice?

I look at it from all angles, religious, non secular, whatever. It all amounts to the same thing...

Murder of an innocent baby.

I agree on conception.

God proposed it and the concept is recorded in scripture.
If you wish to champion a different source we will never agree.

There isn’t any debate or discussion possible.

The highest authority has already ruled.
