One baby is murdered every hour in a late-term abortion.  This gruesome practice remains legal in America – just like China and North Korea.  Unborn babies were abandoned when supposedly “pro-life” members of Congress killed a bill to ban late-term abortions – when babies feel pain.  America should never give up the fight to defend the defenseless.  Just think of yourself when your Mother was carrying you in her womb and decided at the last-minute that she wanted to abort you?  Just think all of you people out there that take this so lightly, you might not have been here either.

Abortion is a money-maker.  Why even our Attorney General’s wife is a co-owner of an abortion clinic which is in mothballs while he is the attorney general.  So if the Federal government won’t pass this bill – each state should!

It is time the Congress needs to get their ducks in row before they start tackling any bill. They need to prioritize what the American people sent them to Washington to pass and  quit doing these half-way measures and ending up with nothing.  I thought immigration and jobs were the first order of business?  It looks like all of them get to the water’s edge, know the water is going to be cold, and then end up not jumping in because they have no life jacket.  Before you start for the water, be sure  you have a life jacket with you and all of you are on the same water’s edge (at least a majority).

According to news reports, female GOP lawmakers raised concerns on the Pain-Capable Unborn Child Protection Act, prompting party leaders to scrap a vote on the bill.

Prominent Republican members who rallied against the plan to limit late-term abortions include Reps. Charlie Dent of Pennsylvania, Renee Ellmers of North Carolina and Jackie Walorski of Indiana.

“I prefer that we avoid these very contentious social issues,” Dent told National Journal. “Week one, we had a speaker election that did not go as well as a lot of us would have liked. Week two, we got into a big fight over deporting children, something that a lot of us didn’t want to have a discussion about. Week three, we are now talking about rape and incest and reportable rapes and incest for minors.  I just can’t wait for week four.”  (You are going to have to talk about the truth sooner or later.)

The House had been expected to vote on the bill Thursday, timed to coincide with the annual March for Life, a rally for pro-life advocates in Washington, D.C., to mark the anniversary of the Supreme Court’s 1973 Roe v. Wade decision that legalized abortion.

Obama issues a veto threat, again and again,  against a bill supported by 60 percent of the population.   Just pass the bill and let Obama worry about vetoing it.

The House will vote instead Thursday on a bill prohibiting federal funding for abortions, a less ambitious measure that the chamber has already passed before.  (This is better than nothing.)

Conservative commentators and pro-life advocates expressed frustration with the last-second decision to change course. Some said that those opposed to the original bill were ceding to politics over policy.  (Yes, it is called cold feet.)

According to a November Quinnipiac poll, 60 percent of Americans back banning abortion, except in cases of rape or incest reported to the authorities, after 20 weeks.

During a debate on the issue today, Rep. Trent Franks, R-Ariz., who led the effort to pass the Pain-Capable Unborn Child Protection Act, called late-term abortion “the greatest human rights atrocity in the United States today.”

Supporters of the right to abortion, and critics of Republicans’ moves to act on the issue so quickly after earning a majority in Congress, say lawmakers should be more focused on creating jobs than on passing “anti-choice” bills.  (Why didn’t you think about this before you started working on this bill, duh?)

“Instead of a jobs agenda, the majority seems bound and determined to attack women’s rights, to take away a woman’s constitutional right to make for herself the most private and personal and intimate decisions,” said Rep. Carolyn Maloney, D-N.Y., speaking on the House floor today against the Pain-Capable Unborn Child Protection Act.  (Yes, and this is the same Socialist Democrat who is helping to shred the Constitution.)

UPDATE: In comments to reporters Thursday, Ellmers, who is credited for starting the rebellion, said it was “unfortunate” how the situation played out. She also stood by her decision. “When we come off as harsh and judgmental, we stop that conversation and we’ve got to learn to be doing a better job,” she said, according to the Washington Examiner.  (A little late for thinking about “how unfortunate the situation played out about being harsh and judgmental” – what about making a decision to abort a human being at the last-minute – isn’t that harsh and judgmental?)

Yes,  you need to pass a bill to stop killing all of these human beings who are future citizens and taxpayers – or is that asking too much.  Can people be so callous?
