Democrats and Planned Parenthood support baby killer in Colorado

Dustin Siggins writes at Daily Caller,
Last week, millions of Americans paid homage to the women who do world’s most important job — raising our nation’s children. It is a life that offers no fanfare, no paycheck, and no benefits, yet mothers put their all into this important, loving vocation.

Also last week, tens of thousands of men, women, and children marched for life in Canada, showing their support for the unborn and their mothers, fathers, doctors, and society at large. Simultaneously, the House of Representatives finally passed a bill that would ban most late-term abortions in America.

In light of these grand celebrations of life — born and unborn — it is the height of irony that Planned Parenthood chose this past Thursday to highlight its radical pro-abortion agenda in Colorado by withdrawing its support of a female state senator who “states she is pro-choice and supports a woman’s right to have a safe and legal abortion and access to contraception, including intrauterine devices, or IUDs.”

However, because Ellen Roberts supported a law that would punish those who attack a pregnant woman and harm her unborn child, Planned Parenthood says she’s just not good enough.

You cannot support fetal personhood measures and be pro-choice,” said Cathy Alderman, spokeswoman for Planned Parenthood of the Rocky Mountains. “Despite what the proponents claimed, when you define ‘person’ prior to birth, you have created fetal personhood. Just saying it’s not personhood doesn’t change that.”

Alderman’s comments come just two months after a pregnant woman was viciously attacked by a woman who literally cut her baby out of her stomach. The mother survived, the baby did not — and the attacker could not be charged with the death of the child. Republicans attempted to fix this gaping hole in the state’s laws, but Democrats stopped them from joining more than three dozen states with similar measures.

This is not the first time Planned Parenthood’s radical agenda has been on display in Colorado, but it provides an opportunity to remind the American people that the nation’s largest killer of children stands not for women, nor for choice, but instead exclusively for its bottom line. And that bottom line relies on the deaths of hundreds of thousands of babies and the disempowerment of women.
