Nebraska's fetal pain law under attack early by abortion industry with emotional account...

Well, this is typical of the abortion industry. They take a sympathetic and painful experience by a couple that is traumatized by the situation and play it up for their own purposes. The headlines by this paper is of course showing their bias right up front.

" Nebraska woman speaks out against state abortion law that forced her to watch her baby die."

She was not forced against her will to hold her baby during the 15 minutes of life. She could have said, no this is too painful and they did not say ....well you must do this. They would have removed the baby from her sight. Just like when a loved one is dying. Some choose to be there with them and some say this is too painful and I will leave the room. This couple receives the dreaded news that the baby would not live but a few minutes beyond birth if it survived the birth process...but read the story. The drs. also state all the deformities and defects the baby will have but when the baby is born.....


"Through tear-blurred eyes, she looked her daughter over for physical defects......" What Deaver saw was perfection: A tiny but beautiful child. Ten toes. Ten fingers. Long eyelashes."

The traumatized couple asked the dr. about doing a late term abortion because"they decided there were things worse than death."  The dr. advised her that since she was beyond 20 weeks, the baby's heart was beating and her life was not in danger, no late term abortion would be offered in NE. You get into trouble when you speak the truth to a couple who are in trauma, but the truth remains true. What they were saying is that this is too painful for us. Did they realize what a late term abortion was and that the fetal pain abortion law, was what was preventing this procedure?? Did they really want to kill their baby early through a barbaric procedure???  What they were asking is for the dr. to end the baby's life early. I would say tell me how you would do this....the description alone would shock them. Did they really want their baby's life to be ended in this manner. What if they were required to watch the late term abortion via ultrasound?? Talk about traumatizing??
Shame on the abortion industry for their use of this couple. I would like to revisit them in a few months and they probably would say that this 15 minutes of holding their daughter was a special and sacred time for them. I know many couples who went through this same situation and they view this time as special. Here is one recent one...

Politico: boasts exclusive with abortion industry with no breaking news

Politico has a puff piece with their pro abort side kicks lamenting their weak status given the loud voice of the American people in the last election.  Despite their  typical rhetoric of anti abortion vs. abortion rights advocates and boasting  that the pro aborts are giving them an exclusive before releasing their paltry analysis and excuse ridden game plans.....the article is a smile fest for  pro lifers.

They point out that pro life adovcates are pushing forward with an aggressive agenda announced publicly; taking advantage of state initiatives...OK passing law requiring women the right to be shown ultrasounds before abortions and having docs give accurate information about the picture , NE with the fetal pain law which ran late term abortionist and Tiller sidekick out of the state, saying NO to using tax $$ to pay for abortions in the new Obamacare law and making  permanent  the law known as the Hyde Amendment that bans the use of  federal  dollars for abortions instead of renewing it annually.
I found it interesting that the reporter who was spoon fed information from the abortion industry did not ask any questions or do any homework.  When discussing the NE fetal pain law  that was passed in April and went into effect in Oct. causing Carhart to pack  up his instruments and flee to other states; the industry made noises about the law being unconstitutional but have not yet challenged it .  When quizzed on why no challenge yet the  abortion industry said they don't want to publicly discuss strategy and are looking for the right case for the challenge. A little homework on behalf of the reporter would have turned up this interesting quote from the atty for Carhart.

"losing  such a challenge would risk having the court throw away the viability standard in favor of a pain standard, which could be further lowered should it be proven fetuses feel can feel pain earlier than 20 weeks."

My favorite part of the article is the abortion industry attempts to change the subject warning the new pro life majority that it is really the economy that the American people care about and if they spend too much time on social issues they may find themselves  in trouble. Yes sir, the abortion industry is concerned about the economy of their own bottom line.
