Hillary's Humanization of a Fetus Has Planned Parentood in Uproar

Recently, Hillary Clinton referred to a fetus as an unborn child.  For Pro-Choice activists, this was anathema.  For decades, abortion advocates have sold abortion by characterizing a fetus as no more than some type of appendage in a woman's body.  Free for her to dispose of like a tumor.  Therefore, they can easily advocate removing it as "a woman's right to chose".

Now, Hillary, herself a Pro-Choicer, has inadvertently and very publicly humanized the fetus.  A Planned Parenthood executive believes that she has further stigmatized abortion with that comment.  Why?  Because if the truth be told, a fetus is a human and, abortion is the killing of a human.  This is why, in most states, if a fetus dies when a pregnant woman is murdered, it is called fetal homicide.  And, as such, the murderer is often charged with two counts of homicide.

Nancy Reagan's Incongruous Statement on Stem Cell Research

Today, Obama signed an executive order that would lift the previous Bush restrictions on embryonic stem cell research. Clearly, those on the left supported this move. After all, it is just another extension of their pro-choice attitude towards the destruction of embryos.

Sadly, the left has been able to find a rather famous person who is associated with the right and who has come to the support of their cause. That would be the wife of the right's most famous president in modern times: Ronald Reagan. In a statement, Nancy Reagan said the following:

"I’m very grateful that President Obama has lifted the restrictions on federal funding for embryonic stem cell research. These new rules will now make it possible for scientists to move forward. I urge researchers to make use of the opportunities that are available to them, and to do all they can to fulfill the promise that stem cell research offers.

Countless people, suffering from many different diseases, stand to benefit from the answers stem cell research can provide. We owe it to ourselves and to our children to do everything in our power to find cures for these diseases – and soon. As I’ve said before, time is short, and life is precious."

Now, I recognize that she, along with the whole world, would love to cure all the ills that afflict mankind. That would be tremendous. However, at what cost? Should we destroy life to save life?

In the last sentence of her statement, she says: "...and life is precious." Those words, alone, show how inconsistent her beliefs are on stem cell research. You can't allow the destruction of newly formed human life and, at the same time, believe that life is precious. Unfortunately, the left is using Nancy Reagan's emotion on this topic as a justification of what many consider to be an immoral act. And, that's just my opinion.
