Political Quotes

“It's difficult for me to even speak about this subject today. I'm a woman who's been privileged to give birth to 5 children, and I've also taken 23 children into my home as foster children. It's very hard for me to imagine, Mr. Speaker, that a doctor in this country, a doctor who took an oath to do no harm, would, in fact, kill a woman at his abortion clinic and he would sever the heads of four babies that were born alive--and potentially others--and commit one gruesome act after another. Shamelessly, the mainstream media has all but gone silent and failed to cover this horrific violence against women. No one, Democrat or Republican, believes in violence against women. We abhor it. But there's nothing that even comes close to what's happened in this abortion clinic in Pennsylvania. The officials in Pennsylvania and the State Department of Health, unfortunately--it appears, willfully--ignored this heinous crime. It also appears that this has been ignored now across our Nation. Well, we won't ignore it. And I thank God for the men who stood up here today to stand for women and against violence against women. I lend my voice and my support to that effort as well. ____________________”
