Innocent Life Vs. The Party Of Infanticide

Babies are being killed because some adults think life is a game.

Last week, Virginia Governor Ralph Northam, openly expressed the Democrat position on abortion:  there is no obligation to protect the life of a child who was indecorous enough to survive an abortion when she was obviously not “wanted”.  In other words, the right to an abortion is the right to an “effective abortion” or a dead child.

The premise of the Born-Alive Infants’ Protection Act of 2002 was if a child survived an abortion it had the same claim as any other human being to the protection of the law.

The problem back then was President Bill Clinton was set to veto the bill if the civil and criminal penalties were not stripped from it because defenders of abortion like the National Organization for Women vehemently opposed efforts to protect any child born alive.

If a child born alive is nothing less than a human child with a claim to protection by the law, how is it different from the same child five minutes, five days or five months earlier?

The right to abortion, proclaimed in Roe v. Wade, extended through the entire pregnancy and possibly gave the license to kill the child after birth.

The bill became impossible to enforce and nurses began telling stories of babies surviving late-term abortions being put in rooms to die without any care; without even a blanket.  Sometimes they are killed by lethal injection, asphyxiation or by breaking their spine.

The infanticidal horrors exposed during the murder trial of Philadelphia abortionist Kermit Gosnell and others like the notorious LeRoy Carhart operate throughout this country with impunity.  Carhart was caught on tape explaining he injects the poison Digoxin into the baby’s heart prior to inducing labor.  The poison kills the baby and “softens” the body like “meat in a crock pot” and is more easily “delivered”.

The Gosnell trial gave impetus to lawmakers in the U.S. House of Representatives to return to the original bill and restore the civil and criminal penalties.  The bill was decisively passed in September 2015 with a vote of 248-177 and again in January 2018 with a vote of 241-183.

Every Republican supported the bill.  Every. Single. One.

Why did @PattyMurray single-handedly block the Senate #BornAliveAct, which would protect babies who survive abortion? I asked her: pic.twitter.com/4j2d7JcA6F

Sen. Murray (D-WA) argued the legislation is not necessary because there are already laws on the books that prohibit infanticide. 

“This is a gross misinterpretation of the actual language of the bill that is being asked to be considered and, therefore, I object,” said Murray.

After her objection, Republican Sen. Joni Ernst of Iowa lamented that the Senate “can no longer unanimously condemn murder.” 

In the world's greatest deliberative body, the United States Senate, it is unfathomable that a bill that simply prohibits infanticide was blocked on the floor. Rationality, decency and basic human compassion have fallen by the wayside. Watch my full floor speech here: pic.twitter.com/v1x7dRvpEi

Abortion portrays a child as an intrusion. The time to choose whether a woman is ready to receive the greatest gift of all is before conception not after.

Rot In Hell Kermit Gosnell

Don't think of it as a 'death sentence.' Think of it as a 280th-trimester medical procedure. #Gosnell

Imagine how Dante would have described Gosnell's place in Hell.

There Are Monsters Out There

I will not apologize for the macabre use of a mangled, aborted infant in the Photoshop™ of “President Infanticide”.  The image of the child is but one of thousands of such grisly examples of late-term abortions.  It is intended to shock the senses.

I chose to juxtapose the two images seen here because I am weary of the cold-bloodedness of America’s president.  You will remember that on the campaign trail in Johnstown, PA in early 2008 Senator Barack Hussein Obama addressed a woman’s passionate plea to “stop the abortions” with: 

"Look, I got two daughters—9 years old and 6 years old.  I am going to teach them first about values and morals, but if they make a mistake, I don't want them punished with a baby.”  [Emphasis mine.]

And I am weary of the legion of men and women who comprise Gosnell’s pro-abortion allies in the media and in government who allowed this butcher to act with impunity.  In my view, even the eyewitness accounts of Gosnell’s barbarism is not enough to make this president stop his obstinate defense of Planned Parenthood.

Susan B. Anthony List President Marjorie Dannenfelser reasons, “So committed to every abortion, this President is committed even to the failed ones…He would allow only the abortionist, the one who guaranteed a dead baby, to provide intensive care to the most vulnerable babies imaginable. Why? He explained it would threaten abortion rights generally. This is uncommon heartlessness.”

At the conclusion of Obama’s speech to Planned Parenthood last week he said, “As long as we’ve got to fight to make sure women have access to quality, affordable health care, and as long as we’ve got to fight to protect a woman’s right to make her own choices about her own health, I want you to know that you’ve also got a president who’s going to be right there with you, fighting every step of the way. Thank you, Planned Parenthood. God bless you.”

This is who sits in the Oval Office.

The following is excerpted from District Attorney R. Seth William’s Report to the Grand Jury:

“This case is about a doctor who killed babies and endangered women. What we mean is that he regularly and illegally delivered live, viable, babies in the third trimester of pregnancy—and then murdered these newborns by severing their spinal cords with scissors. The medical practice by which he carried out this business was a filthy fraud in which he overdosed his patients with dangerous drugs, spread venereal disease among them with infected instruments, perforated their wombs and bowels—and, on at least two occasions, caused their deaths. Over the years, many people came to know that something was going on here. But no one put a stop to it.” 

“The clinic reeked of animal urine, courtesy of the cats that were allowed to roam (and defecate) freely. Furniture and blankets were stained with blood. Instruments were not properly sterilized. Disposable medical supplies were not disposed of; they were reused, over and over again. Medical equipment—such as the defibrillator, the EKG, the pulse oximeter, the blood pressure cuff—was generally broken; even when it worked, it wasn’t used. The emergency exit was padlocked shut. And scattered throughout, in cabinets, in the basement, in a freezer, in jars and bags and plastic jugs, were fetal remains. It was a baby charnel house.”

According to the timeline cover-up, the Pennsylvania Department of Health granted approval for the accused baby butcher to provide abortions in December 1979.

On November 25^th, 2009 the butcher of Lancaster Avenue submitted an application to become a member of the National Abortion Federation.  The NAF evaluator found deplorable conditions and rejected his application, but failed to report the clinic’s abysmal conditions to any oversight agencies.

On March 12, 2010 the Department of Health filed papers to begin the process of shutting down the clinic.

In the documentary 3801 Lancaster, “Makeda”, a former Gosnell patient whose identity is shrouded in darkness in the film says, “There are monsters out there.”

Makeda is right.  Gosnell cannot be the only sociopathic doctor left willing to hack alive innocents; to snip their spinal cords or leave them to drown in a toilet or store their dismembered body parts in jars.

These women were seeking a “medical treatment” that involved the murder of babies under the guise of “reproductive freedom”.

Gosnell profited $10,000 to $15,000 a day at his late-term abortion clinic—not including the $200,000 he made from writing 2,300 illegal prescriptions for Oxycontin and other addictive drugs.  What we have here is a monster in a major American city running a slaughterhouse.

That’s some freedom you got there ladies.

Little Bodies And The Conscience Of A Nation

“The deafening silence of too much of the media, once a force for justice in America, is a disgrace.”

Who wrote this?

It was part of an opinion piece at USA Today, written by Kirsten Powers.  Yes, that Kirsten Powers.

“A Lexis-Nexis search shows none of the news shows on the three major national television networks has mentioned the Gosnell trial in the last three months. The exception is when Wall Street Journal columnist Peggy Noonan hijacked a segment on Meet the Press meant to foment outrage over an anti-abortion rights law in some backward red state.” 

“The Washington Post has not published original reporting on this during the trial and The New York Times saw fit to run one original story on A-17 on the trial's first day. They've been silent ever since, despite headline-worthy testimony.”

Then PhillyBurbs.com columnist J. D. Mullane tweeted a photo of the empty seats in Courtroom 304 for the media in the “house of horrors” trial of abortionist Kermit Gosnell.

Suddenly, the “Gosnell Media Blackout” was broken and the ensuing uneasiness of publishing a story that brings shame and disgrace on the Fourth Estate and proponents of abortion rights began in earnest.

The baby butcher’s trial received no mentions on NBC, CBS, ABC, MSNBC and PBS programming until last week. Until Friday, CNN had aired only 76 words on the trial when host Jake Tapper mentioned it March 28. The Washington Post hadn’t reported a word on the trial until Friday.

On April 11^th, the same day Mullane tweeted the photo of the empty media seats; Rep. Christopher Smith (R-NJ) “delivered a series of special-order speeches” on the floor of the House asking, “When will the media blackout stop? Will America ever be told about the brutality of abortion and the violence that is commonplace inside the abortion industry? Or will the media continue to censor this trial of the century, because it exposes an all too inconvenient truth that not only are unborn children destroyed in these killing centers, but that even babies who survive the abortion can’t escape the deadly hand of the child predator.”

The defiance of the liberal narrative about abortion is bound to explode.  They insist that the Gosnell story makes their case for guaranteeing decent medical care. The heinous acts of which he stands accused are depraved and the good doctor is their worst nightmare.

USA Today reports today that “President Obama is keeping abreast of the ongoing murder trial of abortion doctor Kermit Gosnell, but the White House is steering clear of delving too deeply into the case.”

"The president does not and cannot take a position on an ongoing trial, so I won't as well," said White House press secretary Jay Carney.

For babies utterly alone on a cold stainless steel table in some abortion mill, the president has already made his position known.  For those few frail breaths they take before having their spines snipped he said:

“I just want to be clear because I think this was the source of the objections of the Medical Society. As I understand it, this puts the burden on the attending physician who has determined, since they were performing this procedure, that, in fact, this is a nonviable fetus; that if that fetus, or child—however way you want to describe it—is now outside the mother's womb and the doctor continues to think that its nonviable but there's, let’s say, movement or some indication that, in fact, they're not just out limp and dead, they would then have to call a second physician to monitor and check off and make sure that this is not a live child that could be saved. Is that correct?” 

Planned Parenthood: A Grotesque Code Of Morals

Does life in the 21^st century mean that in order to be a woman she must include the act of murder?

I was dazed when I heard that Alisa LaPolt Snow, a lobbyist for the Florida Alliance of Planned Parenthood Affiliates, testified before a committee in the Florida House of Representatives last week against legislation crafted to protect the life of an infant born alive after a botched abortion.

Found at the PPA website is the following opinion of the abortion mill organization regarding HB 1129 “Infants Born Alive”:

This legislation is politically motivated and inflammatory language.  It inserts politics where it doesn’t belong by implying doctors and women who end a pregnancy can’t be trusted. Legislation should not be created with the intent of coercing, shaming, or judging a woman or doctor. It is important that abortion remain a safe and legal medical procedure for a woman to consider with her doctor, if and when she needs it.

Snow’s macabre rationalization had one legislator utterly dumbfounded.  He asked, "So, um, it is just really hard for me to even ask you this question because I'm almost in disbelief. If a baby is born on a table as a result of a botched abortion, what would Planned Parenthood want to have happen to that child that is struggling for life?"

Snow answered that her organization "believes that any decision that's made should be left up to the woman, her family and the physician."

Another legislator followed up, asking Snow, "You stated that a baby born alive on a table as a result of a botched abortion that that decision should be left to the doctor and the family. Is that what you’re saying?”

Again, Snow replied, “That decision should be between the patient and the health care provider.”

That prompted the legislator to incredulously ask, “I think that at that point the patient would be the child struggling on the table, wouldn’t you agree?”

Snow nervously responded, “That’s a very good question. I really don’t know how to answer that. I would be glad to have some more conversations with you about this.”

So inept and ghoulish was this woman’s testimony that on April 1, 2013 Planned Parenthood issued the following statement:

Last week, a panel of Florida state legislators demanded speculation about a vague set of extremely unlikely and highly unusual medical circumstances.  Medical guidelines and ethics already compel physicians facing life-threatening circumstances to respond, and Planned Parenthood physicians provide high-quality medical care and adhere to the most rigorous professional standards, including providing emergency care. In the extremely unlikely event that the scenario presented by the panel of legislators should happen, of course Planned Parenthood would provide appropriate care to both the woman and the infant.

The abortion mills of Planned Parenthood are in the hot seat because they and all the other abortion rights absolutists are reading the sickening headlines about Kermit Gosnell, the Philadelphia abortion doctor on trial for his life.  He faces seven counts of first-degree murder of infants born during illegal late-term abortions killed when he “snipped their necks with surgical scissors.”

A woman’s right to choose should be before she spreads her legs, not after the fact.  The wrong choice drives them to abortion, infanticide, prostitution and self-destruction.

Hell, meet handbasket.
