Breitbart: Former Democrat Virginia governor and potential 2020 candidate Terry McAuliffe seemingly flipped his stance on Virginia’s proposed legislation to allow third-trimester abortion.
In February, McAuliffe called third-trimester abortion “infanticide” during an interview on CNN’s “State of the Union” in the wake of Gov. Ralph Northam (D-VA) defending the bill.
In a Monday interview on Virginia AM radio’s “The John Fredericks Show,” McAuliffe called the bill “common sense.” more
Do tell Terry. How many rural women died because they couldn’t find enough doctors. Seems you are confusing common sense with diabolical.
Mcauliffe is a two faced Dem but more power to him if he wants to enter. He’ll just draw off more money and at some point the well is going to start to run dry.
“…In February, McAuliffe called third-trimester abortion “infanticide””
and he was correct about that. The bill, that he now supports, allows for termination of pregnancy, up to and including during dilation, or the actual birthing process itself. Thankfully the bill was withdrawn.
The bill lessened the medical consent necessary for such an abortion, from 3 to 1 doctor. He said the bill would only allow for 3rd trimester abortions “when the mother’s life would be in danger.”
The bill itself states: abortion would be allowed when “… based upon the physician’s best clinical judgment, the continuation of the pregnancy is likely to result in the death of the woman or impair the mental or physical health of the woman.” That allows for far less of a reason than endangerment of life. ‘likely’ to ‘impair’ has a lot of latitude to it, and a lawyer could argue that all day. If someone wants an abortion in virginia, this would get it for them.
The full bill is here:http://lis.virginia.gov/cgi-bin/legp604.exe?191+ful+HB2491 and the most offensive part is § 18.2-74. Pay particular attention to the stricken language if you go to read it. I could write about this all night, but it is MJA’s birthday, and I’d rather be happy.
he is a slime ball member of the clinton death cult, with bells and whistles
democrats- the party of death and taxes
Progressivism is a death cult, the Democrat Party demands conformity with the prog message.
Over the years it has been interesting (and revealing) to watch as progressives cross each heretofore sacrosanct red line of American norms in it’s death grip accumulation of power;
Erosion of civil liberties
An embrace of mob rule
The deaths of both due process and the rule of law
In utero murder
A calculated and premeditated impoverishment of the inner cities, specifically people of color
Each line is crossed with sanctimony and certitude, and a faint whisper of ,”What we do, we do for a better society”.
