Political Quotes

On the recordAugust 3, 2015
I would first like to enter into a colloquy with Senator Daines. This is an issue which many of us here in this body feel extremely passionate about. We will talk about Planned Parenthood and what is going on and the basic issue of children. This has been spun multiple different ways, but really this is not about a lot of other issues other than one thing. This is about children--children who are recognizable outside of the womb, and once they have been carved up and set out on a table to be sold as parts, they can be plainly seen to be children. So my conversation today will circle around a little bit about what we are doing, where we are headed, what this vote this evening is all about, and what this debate is that should begin here in America about what happens with Planned Parenthood. So I would like to entertain a conversation with Senator Daines.
