Political Quotes

“For many years now, this Congress, in response to the people of the United States of America, have fought diligently to end the most ghastly and ghoulish and gruesome procedure known to modern man. And as we have done so, this Congress has held hearings in the 104th, 105th, 106th, and 108th Congresses. That is over 8 to 9 years if gathering information and data and analysis of the concept of what we call and have defined in this Congress as partial-birth abortion. Now, for myself, as I thumb through the phone book in the Washington, D.C. yellow pages, I can find in there ads for abortions up to at least 22 weeks, and I believe there are one or two that advertise up to 24 weeks. And if the advertisement goes to that, then you can be confident that those partial-birth abortions are taking place beyond the 24 weeks. And, in fact, in this country, there is a Supreme Court decision that allows for such a thing up until the very last minute before birth.”
