[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Understand, when the right uses the "dems support abortion to the 9th month" BS, they rae baiscally saying that they don't want healthcare to supercede when the life of the mother is at stake or the baby is no longer viable

Do not let them get away with this, the number if elective abortions in the 3rd trimester is zero.

They're also saying they think parents of a severely premature baby or baby born with severe defects incompatible with life shouldn't be able to choose palliative "comfort care" over horrifying, harsh attempts to keep the baby alive for as long as possible. That is the nightmare scenario the GOP thinks is "pro-life."[/quote]
Oh god that’s right. There was a point in the last year or two when they likened palliative care for the kind of infant you mentioned to a post birth abortion and I nearly vomited. Yes, some parents do choose to try everything for their micropreemie and some parents who want to give their child with their intestines growing outside their body every chance, and that is their right. But to force a family into that is monstrous. [/quote]

Yes, this stemmed from a discussion with Ralph Northam that was aired on a news program (WTOP, maybe?) where he mentioned palliative care vs extreme measures being up to the family/mother and their doctor.  From that came the whole right-wing "abortion up to and after birth" propaganda, all the way to one of Trump's State of the Union speeches.
Simply barbaric.[/quote]
