Hillary slams 20-week abortion ban
The Hillary Clinton campaign jabbed at House Republicans after they passed the Pain Capable bill banning abortions after 20 weeks on Wednesday.
“Politicians should not interfere with personal medical decisions, which should be left to a woman, her family and her faith, in consultation with her doctor or health care provider," Clinton's senior policy adviser Maya Harris said in a statement.
She added that the bill conflicts with Roe v. Wade the Supreme Court decision that protects the right to an abortion. Court precedent has generally protected abortions up to the point of viability, at 24 weeks. “This bill is a direct challenge to Roe v. Wade, which has protected a woman's constitutional right to privacy for over forty years," Harris said. "The bill puts women's health and rights at risk, undermines the role doctors play in health care decisions, burdens survivors of sexual assault, and is not based on sound science." "It also follows a dangerous trend we are witnessing across the country. In just the first three months of 2015, more than 300 bills have been introduced in state legislatures — on top of the nearly 30 measures introduced in Congress — that restrict access to abortion," Harris said. Read those comments very carefully. Never once does Maya Harris, Hillary’s spokesperson even come close to understanding the bill is designed to draw the line on inflicting pain on an unborn child subjected to the killing process of abortion. Another interesting fact in the vote is that only two Democrats voted for the bill. Every single Republican voted for the bill. Now let’s see what the Senate does. If history teaches us anything the President will threaten a veto and that will be that. Unfortunately with Democrats in lock step there will not be a vote count sufficient to override a Presidential veto. My question is that as a body can each and every Democrat truly believe that it is okay to inflict pain on an innocent baby? The twisted reasoning of the abortion crowd has always escaped me. What does a women’s privacy have to do with killing a perfectly fine baby? Imagine a courtroom scene very somber and cold, the magistrate seated up on the bench, prosecutor and defense sit at opposite tables. Madam X is accused of killing her baby during an abortion. The trial has been a litany of pro abortion rhetoric and accusations of malicious prosecution and now the closing arguments begin. Do you have it, can you see the scene? The defense attorney stands to address the closing arguments to the jury, faces them and very directly says “It is none of your business what my client did at the abortion clinic. I rest my case.” Simply put that is what we are expected to do – sit there and shut up because it is none of our business. Well, I am sorry but someone has to stand up for the innocents. We are at 58 million abortions on the international abortion clock. Yes there is such a thing and it is very frightening indeed. Go ahead and Google it very simply “Abortion Clock”. All that is necessary for evil to prevail is for good men to do nothing. With the grace of God and perseverance the death culture can be defeated. Do not stand for any of their backwards logic or twisted psychology about harm to a women’s health. The incest and rape dialogue is one of the only ways the pro abortion crowd can look themselves in the eye. However, those arguments only pertain to a miniscule percentage of women who seek an abortion and they are usually exempted from the most restrictive regulations. Remember America you future is being killed in the abortion clinics. There is simply no way to sugar coat that. Every hope for humankind is being wasted for the selfish misdirected actions of Godless people who have convinced themselves that there is somehow a justification to still a beating heart. Be warned this the same group who have begun to trumpet assisted suicide as a choice. God help us all.
