Hillary Clinton Roundly Criticized for Referring to the Unborn as a ‘Person’

There is a whole list of them from blogs to hard news sites....So we know she said it....Does that mean that we can all now call it what it is....Killing an unborn person....

People need to watch a few episodes of Veep before rushing to judgment on this.

The reactions in this thread are ridiculous.
 
Since it's so patently obvious, why don't you enlighten us as to when life begins. Because even scientists aren't sure of the exact moment in time.

If a woman is not pregnant, and you leave her alone, there is no child to even mention.

If a woman is pregnant, and you leave her alone, there is a child that can grow up to post here one day.

It's frightening and pathetic how liberals try to lather this very simple concept with enough disjointed language to try and make it not so.

Children aren't convenient for liberals, so they must be reduced to "things".

OK. See these dominoes? Each of these represents one irony meter that you blew with the above comment.



Prolifers care about nothing more than controlling women's and girls' bodies. Nothing.

I, unlike you, place great value in the child that can not defend itself.

You're just fine murdering a child to protect a woman's right to continue on like nothing happened.

Excellent dodge. Prolifers care about nothing more than controlling women's and girls' bodies. If this were not true, then they would be first in line advocating for affordable and easily available contraceptives, comprehensive and science-based sex-ed, etc. Yet prolifers fiercely oppose these common-sense causes. I wonder why that is?!

Dodge?

IT'S A HUMAN BEING! It is sick how you people can just ignore that out of convenience. And what is really disturbing is that you know it. You're pathological.

I'm not against contraceptives or sex education, but if you create a child, you aren't allowed to kill it. If we don't defend the rights of a baby, then what is the point?

Pro-lifers simply enjoy making themselves feel good over the "fact" that they care of the precious sanctity of life. Meanwhile, after they pressure some poor unwed girl into having her baby, they'll then bash her to hell after she applies for welfare because now she's got a baby she can't afford.

Then look at, generally speaking, their stance on the death penalty and warfare... yeah, pro-life my ass.

Thank you, thank you, thank you for pointing out the most ridiculous hypocrisy of liberals.

You'll kill an innocent child like it's nothing, but you'll defend an axe murderer's right to life to the bitter end.

Liberals and personal accountability in a nutshell.

Own it. It's you.

Stop dodging my point. You said, and I quote:

You are a prolifer. You do not get to suggest that I "leave women alone." Your (plural) M.O. is to control women's and girls' bodies--or if that's not plain enough for you, to NOT leave them alone.

You prolifers, yet again, struggle to follow the same rules that you lay down for others. Maybe if you would stop this hypocritical behavior, your positions might be more deserving of respect.

When the egg is fertilized, has it ever grown into something other than a human, like a tree?

Hey look you got your pro-socialism and your pro-abortion arguments all tangled up again.
 
Excellent dodge. Prolifers care about nothing more than controlling women's and girls' bodies.

You're kidding right? Margret Sanger was the epitome of "controlling women's birth rates", for the purpose of keeping the AA community in check I might add....Inconvenient fact I suppose...

If this were not true, then they would be first in line advocating for affordable and easily available contraceptives,...

Again, this must be a joke....It is pathetic how those of you on the proabortion side parrot mindlessly the talking points with less critical thinking than it takes to open a soda can....I mean condoms cost about $4 or $5 dollars nearly everywhere I go to shop, and now that your beloved Obamacare is upon up they are covered by whatever insurance plan you have, same with the pill....So don't give me that "too expensive" bull.

comprehensive and science-based sex-ed, etc.

I had sex ed in school, and I am pretty sure that it is a standard part of education today....So, again you are just wrong.

Yet prolifers fiercely oppose these common-sense causes. I wonder why that is?!

Please show us where this is....because, in the real world, it is only in your own mind....

And another left-winger who can't keep his issues straight.

Quelle surprise.

Oh yes, the old, "Margaret Sanger was a racist" defense. I'm glad you brought race into this discussion, because there very much is a link between anti-choice efforts and the race of women so affected.
 
Okay, so how does that negate the hypocrisy I pointed out about pro-lifers?

Are you serious? How do they brainwash you like this?

WE are pro life for innocent people. We believe if you KILL OTHER PEOPLE, you no longer have a right to life.

Is this really hard to understand?
 
Way to dodge my actual question.
:lamo

You said:

I had an internet photo that addressed every one of the underlined words, and then some. Too bad if you got an answer you didn't want!

There are many choices made before there is a human baby growing inside the womb of any particular woman, not the least is whether or not to engage in the very act of unprotected sex that has only one result should it be successful in what biologically it was designed to do, and that is produce a baby. And, further after some naive young girl visits one of these abortion mills masquerading as a women's health center and is pressured to abort that life, don't give me the "control" argument...

As for things like the death penalty, and wars, they are non sequitur arguments...Putting to death a criminal murderer adult who made the choice knowingly to kill others, or going to war in defense of this country is not comparable. Period....That argument is the true dodge.

Because race was the original reason this evil intended practice was conceived....That's a fact.

This is exactly what Robert Lewis Dear, Jr. believes. To the letter.
 

Stupidity.

Already addressed, on every assertion, and dismissed.

It is ridiculous that you would post this nonsense again.

What a level of embarassment you should be feeling right now.

Alright, since you're insistent on playing the race card... Tell me, why do in vitro fertilization clinics have far fewer TRAP laws, regulations, threats, and attacks than family planning clinics do, despite the fact that the in vitro fertilization process repeatedly destroys human embryos? Why do you not see anti-IVF activists harassing women who visit those clinics, recording their license plate numbers, stalking them day in and day out, and occasionally going on killing sprees at IVF clinics?

Are "killing sprees" a consistant threat at PP? I don't think so....Not sure what you mean by TRAP laws, But, if I had to make a guess based on YOUR comparison, it is because IVF clinics are involved in creating life, whereas places like PP are killing facilities for convenience....
