NARAL Forum Sees Dean and Dems' Daughters Promote Abortion

Manchester, NH (LifeNews.com) -- NARAL held a presidential forum for abortion supporters in New Hampshire Wednesday night. Although ex-Vermont Gov. Howard Dean was the only candidate to attend, three other pro-abortion Democratic presidential candidates sent their daughters, who vociferously defended their fathers' records in favor of abortion.

During the event, Dean, who is considered by many to be the most pro-abortion presidential candidate because of a stint he worked at Planned Parenthood, said pro-life advocates shouldn't be allowed to have control of the phrase "pro-life."

"I actually propose that we all call ourselves pro-life," he said. "We care about life. We believe it's none of government's business... I'd hate to have Tom DeLay, who exterminates cockroaches when he's not in Congress, decide what my medical needs are."

DeLay, who is a leading pro-life Congressman and the third-ranking Republican in the House of Representatives, owns a pest control business in Houston.

However, Dean was not to be outdone in flashing his pro-abortion credentials.

Daughters of Senators Bob Graham (D-FL), Joe Lieberman (D-CT) and John Kerry (D-MA) also attended, the Associated Press reports. They said their fathers would do everything in their power, if elected president, to keep abortion legal.

Cissy Graham McCullough profiled Senator Graham's record in favor of abortion and drew loud applause in the process. She said Graham, who is lagging behind in the polls, has a wife and four daughters who back abortion.

"When you elect a president, you elect a family," she said. "When you elect Bob Graham, you will have five women by his side protecting your right to chose."

Vanessa Kerry, a medical student, said her father would protect legal abortion and "ensure they actually have the ability to make a choice" by expanding abortion coverage in tax-funded health care insurance.

Lieberman's daughter, Rebecca, says abortion is close to becoming illegal and younger women don't appreciate that fact.

"For too long, those on the other side of the issue have claimed a monopoly on values," she said. "But privacy is an American value. Self-determination is an American value. And finally, choice is an American value."

Pro-abortion Rep. Dick Gephardt (D-MO) and Sen. John Edwards (D-NC) were represented by local supporters.

Kerry claims to be Catholic. Wonder if this child was baptized, confirmed? And a med student, no less: perhaps she'll practice what she preaches.

Does anyone else find it very disturbing that they sent their DAUGHTERS to promote their views on abortion? Disgusting.

NARAL just blows my mind...I do believe they'd call it "Happy Fun Surgery America" if they thought they could get away with it.

Better to exterminate small children than cockroaches, in Dean's view, I guess.

Yeah, those daughters are only alive at the whim of their parents, most likely.

Dean would rather side with the poor, iddle-widdle cockroaches who don't do nothing wrong but hid in nooks and crannies in inner-city homes.

Exactly.

Unfortunately,there is also a group of Republican women who call themselves the "Wish List" (I call them the Witch List) have fundraisers for Republican Women candidates who support abortion.

No, you know what I mean...it was the National Abortion Rights Action League, then the National Abortion and Reproductive Rights Action League, now it's NARAL: Pro-Choice America and Howie's talking about how they should call themselves "pro-life"...I was just taking it to the logical conclusion.

It just goes to show you how low the Rat party has sunk. Dean and the daughters of the other dwarves groveling and kissing the feet of the baby-killers is absolutely stomach-turning.

So here we go with a blatant attempt to steal and corrupt the language. Yes folks, they're pro-life because they kill babies. Such typical liberal (il)logic.

I hate to keep repeating myself, but Dean is a psychotic narcissist on a level Bubba Clintoon could only dream about. And I sure hope all those "working people" he claims to represent are paying attention to him mock DeLay's business. What a pompous bit of human dreck. I can believe more and more that Dean did perform abortions; inflicting death would fit with his apparent God complex.

What, no daughters to pimp out to the death merchants? What a shame.

As a matter of fact, the pro-aborts DO control the language in most of the media.

Abortion advocates are called "Pro-choice." Pro-lifers are called "anti-abortionists" or "anti-abortion extremists." You never see the phrase "pro-life" in the NY Times or any other "mainstream" media source, only in pro-life publications.

Sorry, Mr. Dean: your proposal that "we" all be called "pro-life" fails due to lack of a 'second.' The motion on the table now is that you all (translated as y'all for the Breck Girl), as supporters of the leading cause of death in the United States - and the world -- be referred to as Pro Death.

I refuse to be lumped in to a group like yours.

Seconds?

Anyone know what kind of medicine Dr. Dean practiced? Did he have a specialty?

Tom DeLay, who exterminates cockroaches when he's not in Congress

Is this another Republicans-bumping off-Democrats conspiracy theory?
