Democratic primary front-runner Hillary Clinton ran afoul of both the pro-life and pro-choice sides of the abortion debate Sunday when she said constitutional rights do not apply to an “unborn person” or “child.”
“The unborn person doesn’t have constitutional rights,” Mrs. Clinton said on NBC’s “Meet the Press.” “Now that doesn’t mean that we don’t do everything we possibly can in the vast majority of instances to, you know, help a mother who is carrying a child and wants to make sure that child will be healthy, to have appropriate medical support.”
Mrs. Clinton also said “there is room for reasonable kinds of restrictions” on abortion during the third trimester of pregnancy.

Smartest woman in the world, right there!
Even bringing up that concept is unacceptable to the Death Eaters. There are no "reasonable restrictions" on "abortion rights" for them. Kill any baby, any time, for any reason.
Filthy animals don’t like calling a baby a person.
The left seeks to discard and abuse children and the elderly. That is not an exaggeration.
A person is a person no matter the version!
“This is Trump-level gaffery,” Mr. Podhoretz said in a tweet. “If you acknowledge personhood, then the unborn has every Constitutional right.”
Daily Wire Editor-in-Chief Ben Shapiro also said that Mrs. Clinton’s statement “demonstrates just how incoherent and evil the left’s abortion position is.”
Let me guess: she angered “pro-choice” activists by referring to the unborn child as a person?
I have noticed that more of the academic abortion proponents are dropping the fiction that the fetus is anything other than a living human being. While abortion clients might still believe the fetus is a formless mass, intellectual abortion proponents readily admit that abortion kills a baby. They push abortion on the grounds that since the baby has not learned anything yet and is helpless, society has nothing invested in it, thus it has no societal value. Therefore, killing it is a neutral act.
Hillary’s comment clearly shows that she identifies with intellectual “pro-choicers”, those who value people only for how much labor they provide to society. Why is that upsetting to the pro-abortion community?
#7 How many abortions did Hilly have? I think it was three, but I can’t remember my source...
Monster. Deep down, she doesn’t think that any of us have the right to live.
What are they kidding me? Hitlery doesn’t believe constitutional rights apply to ANY person unborn OR born. Just ask Vince Foster.
Quick MSM....where's the firestorm!
Like Trump, this gaff should finally bring Hilliary down, right?
(crickets)
And somewhere Chief Justice Roger Taney is smiling.
Hillary is now the head of the cult of death. And here we thought Trump would be the only one that could insult the Pro-Life and Pro-Abort factions with one statement. Ha! Trump had a more plausible story.
The Baal candidate.
She’s fallen into Trumps trap.
“Or is the pro-life side so thoroughly devoted to ideological purity that they are unwilling to accept an incremental victory? “
Bingo!
Example: I’ve had several posters here tell me something along the lines of: “Until 2008 Donald Trump was for abortion so I’ll never vote for him! How can I know he won’t change his mind again?”
Or that they cannot vote for someone that supports abortion for any reason despite that by doing that they help to ensure that a much worse option is elected. If they can’t have 100% they won’t take 85%.
I am not saying they are a majority but there is measurable minority of people that feel that way
I think Chuck Todd trapped her in a cleverly worded hypothetical...
#18 ~ “Or is the pro-life side so thoroughly devoted to ideological purity that they are unwilling to accept an incremental victory? “
Bingo!
Uh, bingo me arse! WRONG!
