Abortion Doctors Hate 'Inflammatory' Republican Questions
Townhall.com ^ | May 20,2022 | Tim Graham

Rep. Jerry Nadler of New York and the Democrats on the House Judiciary Committee organized a hearing on May 18 with the provocative title "Revoking Your Rights: The Ongoing Crisis in Abortion Care Access." They and their abortion-advocate expert witnesses warned of a dystopian post-Roe v. Wade landscape. One witness even called it "the coming of the New Jane Crow" for women of color.

But the hot video clips burning up social media were Republican questions for the abortion doctors. This might explain why you couldn't find any mention of this hearing on ABC, CBS or NBC morning and evening news programs. The "PBS NewsHour" aired a long, fairly balanced report on the abortion debate in Pennsylvania, but nothing on the House committee.

Some might disparage these questions as stunts. How dare they ask what a woman is ... again. Rep. Dan Bishop of North Carolina asked abortion advocate Aimee Arrambide this, and she answered, "I believe that everyone can identify for themselves." Bishop followed up: "Do you believe then that men can become pregnant and have abortions?" She said, "Yes."

Rep. Mike Johnson of Louisiana also grilled Arrambide. He argued that it is not lawful and morally acceptable to take the life of child at 10, so "what is the principal distinction between the human being that is 2 years old, or 9 months old, or an hour old, than one that is eight inches further up the birth canal in the uterus?"

Arrambide let the question hang in the air, like she couldn't believe she had to answer this impertinent question. Then she stuck the feminist landing: "I trust people to determine what to do with their own bodies. Full stop."

This is the same arbitrary whim that Whoopi Goldberg proclaimed when she was asked on "The View" when life begins, and she angrily replied, "It doesn't matter when you think it is!" and, "I don't have to tell you!" The woman decides whether she's carrying a human life. It's not science; it's an unwavering "right to choose."

When they choose an abortion in the middle of pregnancy, that's an ugly, messy business. But you're not allowed to say that. Rep. Chip Roy of Texas questioned abortion doctor Yashica Robinson about the latest in a pregnancy she had performed an abortion. She said the legal limit in Alabama was 20 weeks. Roy then asked, "Have you had baby parts that you've had to discard or store in some capacity? Legs? Arms?"

Robinson protested: "One of the things that you all have done throughout this hearing is you have used inflammatory language as you talk about the care that we provide." As Roy kept pressing, Robinson announced, "I am a physician and a proud abortion provider. There is nothing that you can say that makes it difficult for me to talk about the care that I provide."

It's "inflammatory" to describe an abortion as a dismembering activity. You're supposed to hide it behind euphemistic lingo like "abortion care."

A Mother Jones article probably resembled the average liberal journalist take on these exchanges. The headline was "Imagine Dealing With This Many Condescending Anti-Abortion White Men and Not Losing Your S--t." Abigail Weinberg denounced the "ignorant and offensive questions, not to mention disinformation, from a certain cohort of white male Republicans." Their questions were "just too absurd," "hateful," "preposterous," "dripping condescension" and showing "immense disrespect."

Nothing shows more immense disrespect than an abortion doctor shows an unborn baby. But Weinberg concluded with bravado: "It looks like women can't expect certain men to start treating them as humans anytime soon."

“Do you get turned on by dismembering a perfectly healthy baby?” shouldn’t be considered inflammatory. He’s obviously trying to determine the appropriate pronouns...like Jack/Ripper or Son/Sam or Jeff/Dahlmer.

This is getting too easy now... "It looks like women can't expect certain men to start treating them as humans anytime soon."

These are the people who when confronted with reality cannot even define what a woman is! The "women" who cannot even treat the child in the womb as "human", those women? They cannot even see the irony of their speech. They dehumanize the child in the womb so that they can accomplish their goal to take its life. It is the men in this case who are humanizing the girls and boys who are in the womb. It is the women who are doing the dehumanizing!

When the doctor said, "full stop" what she meant was full KILL. When confronted with the reality that a fully developed child in the birth canal can have its life taken from it is what pierces the soul of those who have a conscience! It is where the pro-life side started winning the debate on abortion. It is LEGAL in this United States of America for a WOMAN to "choose" to take the life of her child while it is in the birth canal. It is all done in the name of "choice". A personal choice is how it is accomplished. In these debates when you can put an image in people's mind of what an abortion accomplishes is what causes these demons to lose their minds!

The lessons learned out of this are to give the listener a clear image and picture of the abortion. Their side wins when they are talking about clumps or tissues... our side wins when we provide the created image of the life of the body and what the abortionists do to it.

Are they inflammatory questions or just hard questions? Is the truth of this law difficult to answer honestly - thus your blood pressure goes up - and you call it ‘inflammatory’? What really is going on here?
Defending the defenseless should be encouraged and applauded. Free speech and transparency used to be honorable.
Father, bring into the light the deeds of darkness.

And the babies hate being dismembered and sucked out of the womb. Monsters.
