Nancy Pelosi: Pro-Lifers are “Dumb” For Believing Life Begins at Conception

by Steven Ertelt | Washington, DC | LifeNews.com | 3/28/14 12:29 PM

Never mind that science has confirmed for some time that human life begins at conception and the union of sperm and egg creates a unique human being with a DNA code that matches no one else ever conceived.

Nancy Pelosi believes pro-life advocates who think human life starts at conception are just “dumb.”

Politico has the quote:

nancypelosipic2 At Planned Parenthood’s annual gala last night, attendees and your PULSEr stopped laughing at comedian and emcee Tig Notaro just long enough to watch Nancy Pelosi receive the Margaret Sanger award for her work defending abortion rights. In her acceptance speech, Pelosi slammed abortion opponents, especially criticized the “personhood” laws some of them are pushing and said the struggle for reproductive rights will continue whatever SCOTUS decides on the contraception mandate.

–”When you see how closed their minds are or oblivious or whatever it is — dumb — then you know what the fight is about,” Pelosi said. “Whatever happens with the court…we must remember these battles will not be the end of the fight,” she added. Former New York Mayor Michael Bloomberg was also awarded.

Here’s how Marjorie Dannenfelser of the Susan B. Anthony List reacted, in an email to LifeNews:

Last night, Nancy Pelosi accepted Planned Parenthood’s highest honor – the Margaret Sanger Award – at their annual gala. Now, that’s enough to make most people’s blood boil.

Sanger – the founder of Planned Parenthood – was a racist eugenicist who called African Americans, immigrants and the poor “human weeds,” “reckless breeders,” “spawning… human beings who never should have been born.”

But wait until you read this – Politico is reporting that, in accepting the award, Pelosi called pro-lifers “dumb,” “closed-minded,” and “oblivious.” I don’t know how you feel right now after reading this, but frankly, I think pro-lifers should take these insults as a badge of honor.

Pelosi knows that abortion on-demand is absolutely indefensible, so she’s resorted to elementary school name-calling.

How is it “dumb” that we accept the scientific fact that life begins at conception?

And how is it “close-minded” that we want to protect women when study after study shows just how much abortion hurts women?

The truth is, I think we got under Nancy Pelosi’s skin yesterday.

You see, pro-lifers across the country participated in a TweetFest social media campaign to educate Nancy Pelosi about Margaret Sanger’s hateful legacy.

She was a well known eugenicist who thought birth control and abortion were the best way to “create a race of thoroughbreds.” Sanger believed in forced sterilization of “the feeble minded,” and said that “the most merciful thing that a large family does to one of its infant members is to kill it.”

We presented Nancy Pelosi with facts about Margaret Sanger, and instead of attempting to defend the indefensible, she resorted to name calling instead.

Well, since she is so stupid as to not know that life begins at conception, can we coin a phrase for her similar to “flat-earther”? If she had said she doesn’t know when the soul enters an embryo, I would understand, but yikes!!

How about ‘stork-worshipper’?

Organized religion is not something I can get into.

Yeah. I said that too. It's a cop out. You'll figure it out.

“Nancy Pelosi: Pro-Lifers are “Dumb” For Believing Life Begins at Conception”

Someone should ask Mrs. Pelosi if she believes that when she found herself pregnant (usually in the first 3-4 weeks), the fetus in her womb was dead, not alive.

Pelosi is dumb for thinking she’s a Catholic.

Oh, the irony.

What large donations? LIBs don’t give money away. Have you seen Old Joe’s tax returns? ZERO to the church and less than 1% overall. I wouldn’t expect Nan’s to be any different.

If life didn't begin at conception the molech worshipers wouldn't be so adamant about keeping their source of idol fuel flowing...

By her words and actions, it appears that Nancy Pelosi has not God but instead a serpent coiled inside the most sacred place in her soul.

I would be very interested to know what secret black robed organization she's been initiated into.

As it is, she appears to be one of the many zombies, the walking (spiritually) dead that haunt our world, leading others to their demise and destruction.

Pray for her. Her future Judgment is likely to be the very, very unpleasant reward for her walk through life, but it's still not too late.

She is loved by God, the same as all we sinners are, and can still find Grace and be forgiven.

Wealthy Catholics will never be excommunicated, no matter how evil they are.

I agree and Wealthy Politicians will never be gone, no matter how evil they are.

Interesting question.

The bible “speaks” of “wailing and gnashing of teeth” when people are sent to Hell because Christ “never knew them” (”depart from me ye workers of iniquity, I never knew you”).

At least one modern day prophet says that Christ told him that the wailing and Gnashing of teeth was Christ Himself who is so saddened by anyone being sent to Hell.

“This is from BeadCounter’s post upthread.”

That’s good news, now if only the Mormons would excommunicate Reid. But then I guess he’s too big a fish in the “God Business” to let go. “Organized Religion,” in my view is largely corrupted by money and power. They are all too willing to turn a blind eye to wealthy and/or powerful miscreants. The Catholic Church “ sold indulgences” centuries ago, and from my vantage point, they are still doing it, only it’s more subtle today. Just wonder what the Lord thinks when He looks down on all of this?
