Years from now, when history looks back on the Democratic Party, one date will almost certainly stand out: July 25, 2016. That was the Tuesday, in the capital of the Revolution, when everything changed. For the first time in America’s 240 years, a major political party threw its full support behind one of the most savage and violent practices of the modern age: full-term, no-apologies abortion.
It’s just a party platform, some said. It doesn’t mean anything. Try telling that to Americans today, who watched in stunned silence last night as a leader of the U.S. Senate walked to the same floor where giants of freedom have stood and defended the killing of a perfect, fully-born child. It was not just a party platform when another senator, Ben Sasse (R-Nebr.), looked at the other side of the aisle and saw a group of men and women willing to “betray the universal truth of human dignity and [turn] the stomachs of civilized people… in every country on earth.” And it wasn’t just a party platform when, the only other time this issue came up for a vote, every Senate Democrat agreed: infanticide is wrong.
The moment Senator Patty Murray (D-Wash.) rose to her feet and objected to protecting the survivors of abortion will be a defining one for Democrats. It should have signified to everyone that the radicalization of the party that started in 2016 is now complete. And like so many others, Senator Joni Ernst (R-Iowa) could only look on in horror. “This is the world’s greatest deliberative body,” she said. But “there is nothing great, there is nothing moral or even humane, about the discussion that we have before us today.”
New Senator Josh Hawley (R-Mo.) stood in disbelief. “Is this really the extremism of the Democratic party?” After decades of proving that there was still some scrap of moderation in their abortion agenda, liberals have thrown off any pretense of solemnity or restraint. And just like the Brett Kavanaugh debate, they’ve significantly overplayed their hand. “I can’t imagine a vision less just or less consistent with the goodness and compassion of the American people,” Hawley argued.
He’s right. “Gallup polling from 2018 found that only 13 percent of Americans favor making third-trimester abortions ‘generally’ legal, and only 18 percent of Democrats shared that position,” Alexandra Desanctis warns. Less than a quarter of their own party is willing to follow them into the most radical terrain on abortion ever broached. “Women reject late-term abortion at an even higher rate than men. A Marist survey from earlier this year found that 75 percent of Americans would limit abortion to, at most, the first three months of pregnancy, and majorities of Democrats and those who describe themselves as pro-choice agreed.”
With almost an eerie detachment to the issue at hand, Murray tried to frame the bill as unnecessary. “We have laws against infanticide in this country,” she claimed in her brief justification for stopping its passage. But, as so many have pointed out, only 26 states have “affirmative protections” for born-alive babies. Even if all 50 did, what’s the harm in reaffirming the Senate’s commitment to protecting these innocent survivors? Surely a party that can eat up hours of the legislative clock with a passionate plea to save the Delta Smelt can spare some sympathy for endangered children.
Even after yesterday’s disgrace, Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell (R-Ky.) has no intentions of walking away from survivors like Melissa Ohden and Gianna Jessen, who wouldn’t be alive today if Democrats got their way. Before the vote, McConnell cautioned that if the other side stopped the bill, it “would make quite a disturbing statement.” If they do, he vowed, “I can assure them that this will not be the last time we try to ensure that all newborns are afforded this fundamental legal protection.”
To almost every American, “health care” does not include the killing of innocent newborns. “But in defending bills that expand the right to abort [living children], Democrats are giving away the game,” Desanctis predicts. “Most people, even those who favor some abortion access, instinctively recoil from what they see. These late-term abortion bills do more than reveal Democratic radicalism. They draw back the veil of euphemism to expose abortion for what it is: At every stage of pregnancy, it is the taking of a human life. For the anti-abortion movement, it is a pivotal moment to insist upon that truth.”
That’s where you come in. If you haven’t contacted your senators about the Born-Alive Abortion Survivors Act, make sure you do today. Let them know that extremists like Patty Murray stand alone!

AMEN!!!
I am unsure if the Dims have any idea that the actions they allow/encourage are in fact murder. If they do, it appears they care not one wit about the lives these actions will take. Of course, so long as they are for open borders, why shouldn’t they agree that killing infants is legal also. Shameful.
We can not justify murder.
They are children of Satan, Jesus said that, “Satan came to kill, steal, and destroy.” God has turned them over to a strong delusion that they should believe a lie and be damned because they do not receive or love the knowledge of the truth (which is Jesus).
A woman teacher in the 40s told our class as she wagged her forefinger toward us. “women can be much more cruel than any man ever was!” It’s being proven now when a woman can feel her child within her move around and then let it happily be killed ! And the women’s movement happily creating these children and asking and paying for them to be killed! That is inhumane. -animals die to protect their young! These women are not even as humane as a pig!!!
And writers please go back to school and learn the difference between democrat and democratic. These democrats are NOT democratic!!!
It’s called Population Reduction and it is the goal of the One World Government to reduce the population of planet earth to 500 million (easier to control). See “georgiaguidestones” for more documentation. Always follow the money. Senator Murray was also paid over $500,00.00 by the drug companies to vote AGAINST lowering drug prices, which she did. She is just a pawn being paid by Satanists.
Who ever said the Democrats couldn’t go any lower? They have found a way, I guess there is no
bottom to their low!!!
Maybe we should stop sanatizing the words that so often fool people and lull them into a state of mind that shelters them from all reality.
Pro life is exactly what it means, you stand for life. Do we call pro choice standing for life? No, in all reality pro choice stands for the right to decide to terminate the life of an innocent baby. So let’s call it what it really is and should be called, pro choice =pro murder. Perhaps if we start calling it pro murder it might shake the conscience of someone contemplating abortion or better yet those that we have intrusted in making sure that all children are precious and have the right to live.
Please instead of being offended by this comment take a few moments to look at your children and grandchildren, see their potential, see their desires and see their love then give the unborn that same attention.
It’s just murder to me. If a woman doesn’t want her baby when it is born, what happened to adoption? It makes me physically I’ll even to think about it!
All of this is about the Democrats “protecting women’s health”. Then what about the female baby about to be aborted? Doesn’t this “woman” have a health issue to be protected? I can’t imagine a worse effect on “health” than death!
Whether or not you are in support of the right to choose, facilitating the death of a full-term delivered infant is TRULY BARBARIC. I don’t think Roe v. Wade will be overturned even by a right-leaning Supreme Court, but there will be a challenge to late-term abortions. It’s incredible to me that some of these United States have passed laws protecting the right of the pregnant woman to kill a viable fetus—right before, during, or after birth. A relative suggested giving the knife to the mother, who can then do the deed herself. I wonder how many will change their mind.
Seeing all those “women in white” at the SOTU address sit in stony silence as President Trump spoke of this practice favored by the new socialists makes me think that they should never be given the responsibility of making ANY laws in this country…for they clearly are out of their mind!
Btw, I though President Trump did a great job last night. Did I hear it correctly—that 76% of Americans polled gave his speech thumbs up? Except for the one small oops moment about going to war with North Korea, it was fantastic. Lots of opportunities for unity, and lots of clarity about what dems really stand for. MAGA.
Killing convicted savage criminal murderers: Inhumane
Killing viable 9 month innocent babies : “Right to choose”
These folks are sick and evil
The democrat leaders are lacking common sense, anyway to get to power. Remember history as late as Hitler how he took power.
“We hold these truths to be self-evident, that all men are created equal, that they are endowed by their Creator with certain unalienable rights, that among these are life, liberty and the pursuit of happiness.”
I realize this is the Declaration, but isn’t it sad that our founders saw so much more to the station of life than some do in our “educated and advanced” civilization. We are beginning the repeated slide of many civilizations before us, when they reached the lowest of moral crimes, such as the sacrifice of children, and the feeding of Christians to wild animals in the areas. Perhaps it is because our nation is removing history from our public schools?
“Those who don’t know history are doomed to repeat it. -Edmund Burke”
The preamble of Constitution also addresses the care for freedom and happiness for our “posterity.”
“We the People of the United States, in Order to form a more perfect Union, establish Justice, insure domestic Tranquility, provide for the common defense, promote the general Welfare, and secure the Blessings of Liberty to ourselves and our Posterity, do ordain and establish this Constitution for the United States of America.”
I only pray this is a wake up call, for all of us to get off resurrect ourselves and join the fight to preserve the call for Life, Liberty, and the pursuit of happiness.
But wait, aren’t these the same people who push gun control, “If it can save one child”?
All you have to do is look at the Germany of 1930-1933 and the parallel between the Democratic Party and the “BROWN SHIRST AND THE NAZI PARTY” they passed laws to allow the taking of human life for Birth defects, religious hate and non Arian birth.
DON’T LET IT HAPPEN HERE!!
Abortion in any form is murder. Now, full-term women are allowing their babies to be murdered. What have we become? Can we still make the claim that we are civilized? This is an abomination before God.
It is in relation to God as our Father and Creator that gives our lives value. Without this point of view, all of life has no value. I fear we are now murdering babies, then toddlers that cry too much, then teenagers who rebel, then sick and disable, elderly….
I can support abortion only in cases of rape and incest.
A few days ago I heard someone say, “ALL Babies, whether they’re human babies or just little puppies and kittens are SO HAPPY to just be alive.” I agree– All babies want to live!!! This whole abortion crap makes me sick!
The whole deal on abortions is atrocious , and shows just how inhumane the jackass party is. They have truly shown their real feelings toward life of the unborn, and now the life of even the born. Yet they don’t want individuals to protect themselves with arms. They have been responsible for millions in child deaths.
Abortion to save the live of the mother should be allowed. Abortion is murder and this country has lost a generation. To kill a nine month child is murder. I have a friend that has tried for 18 years to have a child and she is now going to. She is so happy. How many brillant people have been killed in abortion. The ones that are for it are all ALIVE.
Democrats are against the death penalty for criminal murderers, but they are OK with murdering a baby that is inches from birth???? MAYBE THAT IS WHY THEY ARE AGAINST THE DEATH PENALTY FOR MURDER!
My question to them is “Where will it stop”? When will they decide what to do with children that are born with mental and physical problems? There will be no
need for places like Shriners Hospital, St. Jude Hospital for children. They will take a look at the baby and say sorry but this one does not live up to our standards
so it is to be eliminated. Therefore, the hospital, will only need to set up a morgue next to the delivery room. Maybe I am looking at this wrong, because they
are trying to save me money and I won’t be donating to these hospitals, after that. You know just a thought. God help us all !!!
Too bad their mothers didn’t believe in abortion.
I’m confused or am I just not savvy? Murder is against the law in America correct? If the victim is 9 minutes or 90 years it’s murder. How can a State within the Union day murder is ok? Seems like the Feds could arrest and prosecute someone who commits murder. Now I get it that if the murdered baby’s parents are democrats it’s ok according to democrats? I mean WTF Is going on here? I feel like I’m in a Twighlight Zone movie but have awoken to realize ITS NOT A MOVIE!!!
What’s happened to decency and Love?
The Government should stay out of the abortion issue – it is none of their business – it’s between a woman and her doctor and that should stand as law.
Infanticide, socialism, high taxes, open borders and obstructionism is the Democrat platform. How any American can vote for this party is beyond me. They stand for everything America is against. I pray that the electorate expresses that sentiment in the next election.
In the late 60’s, it was the Liberals that were scowling at GI’s returning from Viet Nam calling them “BABY KILLERS”… Now it seems that the same people that were tormenting our servicemen are now okay with killing babies here!
I guess we can add that to the list for the Democratic party.. the party of Slavery, the party of control, and the party of Baby Killers!
from what I have heard… the Nazis took newborns by the feet and swung them and smacked their head up against a wall to dispatch them..
What is the difference between them and a Democrat with a scalpel or syringe?
Agreed , they are the “killer party” now.
When I was in school, I heard the saying”history will repeat itself” unless man learns from the “horrors” of his mistakes. We haven’t come very far, have we? I mourn the loss of our moral values, our respect for life and our attitudes to compromise our differences. Satan has certainly gotten ahold of our society. The voice of “Hitler” is quietly being heard in the blowing of the wind.
I look at the women of today and only can say”shame on you”…you will pay the price for your decisions to murder an innocent child. For you to believe that abortion is a choice is like someone asking you to choose between heaven and hell.
To the men who support this idea, I can only say that your barbaric side has overtaken your life. This whole affair to me is called “genecide”………….we start with the children, then who comes next? Our society is doomed unless we all wake up to the evil that is lurking among us!
I agree with Tom, this is all a ploy of the one world government. If we don’t think the demoncrats are socialist, go back to the SOTU and look it how Nasty Nancy smiled at her minions when Pres. Trump said America would never be socialist.
Kill off the babies then go to the senior citizens. Population control. That’s their way of controlling the population.
To All those women in white at the presidents speech you are all doing the devils work! You will be rewarded in hell!
Should the Dems. succeed in taking over and competing what, FDR, LBJ, Charter, Clinton, and Obama, have started, they will have no more thoughts of it being wrong to line people up and murder them, (as past Socialist rulers of the past and present are doing), than they do killing a baby at the time of birth, or before. That is what we will get if the Dems are not defeated once and for all. I hope this takes place at the ballot box, for the alterative is too freighting to bring to thought.
We must take back or schools where this type of thought is first planted, then we can have a just and free country once again.
So, if the DNC’ommunists think it is ok to kill live babies it must be ok to kill the DNC’ommunists, right! Both are humans and neither has a real functioning brain. This attempt by so many women is a disgrace to freedom and is so SO much worse than abortion which is all bad. Have you no respect for life at all? You have a doctor who would actually do this? When you do the leap do you not think of the consequences of your actions? The only reason I can think of for a women to wait til birth is to have bigger tits for a while, right! You can get those in rubber. ……. Sorry for this Real Mothers. I’m just pissed about it and it makes me really sad!
If it’s not a baby then you’re not pregnant. Murder is murder during pregnancy and after pregnancy. Now the Truth behind this horrible act is just this. Stem cell research. The big pharmaceutical companies could only get so far with 3 month term pregnancy so they grease the palms of Congress and Senate that way they have viable multistage stem cells to work with. It is sick and twisted. And I hope and pray karma Bite’s these criminals 10 fold. Not just the so called mother’s having the abortion but the doctors WHO took an oath to do no harm. The nurses who assist ,the receptionists who schedule the appointments and the so called law makers that made this murder possible.
This is just so horrible. Abortion is always wrong. What parent does not say, “I’d give my life for my child”?
Oh those poor, poor, babies.
I wonder what God thinks, when we humans mutilate an unbaptized soul from the womb.
Makes me want to vomit.
God save us.
What’s to discuss. Plain out murder? Heinous. I can not believe all Democrats are condoning this.
This is murder we must be the voice of the most helpless and innocent of victims these are babies that are being born alive there is no reason to murder them they can be adopted out to loving families that will give them love and a good life!!
I agree with Gordon below: “Pro-Choice” is “Pro-Murder”. And where does it stop? If they are willing to kill babies, then who else will be their target? And did you see the comment by a liberal author that every abortion is a sacrament to the Greek Goddess “Artemis”? So now we can classify the Democratic party as idolaters.
Do these same people support a universal death penalty? The two questions should be asked in the same poll.
I am a man and as such I am responsible for one half of the creation of a baby. This whole abortion issue goes back to the moral choices we make before conception. If you decide to engage in pre-martial sex or sex within marriage, you need to consider the results of your actions. Birth control is readily available for men and women, as close as your nearest drug store. If you cannot afford to be a parent or simply decide to engage in a sexual relationship, use birth control! It is a lot less expensive than becoming a parent and no harm comes to the unborn. It all comes down to maturity and restraint, making simple decisions that affects your future. Becoming a parent is a job that lasts for at least 18 years and you cannot resign.
Cuomo made NY the #1 abortion state in the nation. Next the seniors!
the problem is that Patty Murry does not stand alone, Most Democrats stand with her,
Lets just vote the Democrat party out of existence and let them start over by taking the oath to the Constitution
and promising to abide by and agree to it.
Everyone that runs for any political office should be required to take a class on the founding of the Constitution and agree to what it says and promise that they will protect it.
Anyone that goes against the Constitution should be replaced.
Here’s a word that I haven’t heard mentioned in all of this regarding POST-TERM neonatal infanticide: Father.
The father is present in the child (an indisputable scientific fact). Where is his voice in this?
Anybody that would kill a baby is Demonic and that is what it is murder.The next thing will be to kill your parents.when they get where they are costing to much to take care of them.Time to murder them they are to much trouble and cost to much.
Before they vote on such a disgusting bill, they should be forced to see a live after birth abortion. Or any abortion. Maybe they will think twice when they see that little guy or girl ripped to shreds. Oh no, that would be to drastic for an elected official to Witness. God help us that wants to save life not murder life.
WAKE-UP! Open your eyes and fully understand that we are in the middle of a full force “Communist Revolution”!!!
In modern times (mid-1400’s), Humanism has raised its ugly head again. In the 400’s BC, it was called Sophisms. The Sophists believed before all else that “man is the Standard – the only Standard”. In France in the 1400’s, Humanism expanded it definition more honestly: “The childish belief in God is what has held mankind back. If we can eliminate the inane belief in God, man can achieve his proper destiny”. Today, this idiocy is fulfilled with “Humanistic Communism”. It has killed, in the 20th Century alone, hundreds of millions of people. Misdefined Democracy (representative anything cannot be Democracy) is used to dupe the masses into Socialism. The natural and only result of Socialism is Communism. This “historical process” is a FACT, not a theory!
Just barely, we are still a Republic! Within 2 years of the United States of America giving-up private ownership of guns, the “Reign of Terror” will occur in our Country.
Respect life OR DIE!
