2016 Postmortem
In reply to the discussion: Hillary now addressing Planned Parenthood. I hope all are hearing this. [View all]Hekate
(93,237 posts)7. Nothing like misquoting and taking out of context
Late term abortions are extremely rare, difficult for the doctor, and dangerous for the mother. They are only done if the life of the mother is at stake, the fetus has defects incompatible with life, or the fetus is already dead and decaying in utero.
However, anti choice fanatics like to portray this as infanticide of a darling Gerber Baby, and they and their surrogates in the MSM like to ambush pro choice politicians with this line of questioning.
Feel better?

Her position is clearly spelled out in her platform with great clarity and little ambiguity.

It's more likely you heard what you wished to hear because of your dislike for her

Sanders stance is no restrictions, and that would have hit him in the ass. Not too well thought out.

I voted for Sanders and I think he would have won the general if he'd won the primary

I like Sanders but am happy with Hillary. I think she stands in starker contrast to Trump...
