Pelosi is, and always has been, an ardent, practicing IDIOT.

:::::::::
Hmmm. Whatever that really means, other than a miserable attempt at pandering to the Catholic vote. And I think the Kennedys are “ardent practicing Catholics” too. Just ask people like Mary Jo and Norma Jean — if they were still around....yes, they did alot of practicing.

Besides, said Pelosi, even if life does begin at conception, that would not change her pro-abortion views.

I don't ever recall hearing about the Immaculate Unviable Tissue Mass in church.

Science knows absolutely how life began and how man is ruining the climate but has no clue as to when life begins.

It is a philosphical question. In some nations they are pushing for terminating a baby up to the first 2 years (if there are birth defects, etc.).

Every chile’ a wanted child. < /s >

Liberals are mean.

“that Church teaching on when human life begins is unclear”

Assuming this is true, where does it say it is OK to kill the baby.

Hey, Pelosi,

if you see some movement in the brush, is it moral to shoot at it when you don’t know if it’s a person or not?

I’m not a Catholic, but from what I do know, the Church is pretty clear on when life begins, and has publicly stated on several occasions.

And Nancy says even if life begins at conception, then she’s still in favor of abortion. Hmmm...taking a human life after it has begun. Somehow in Nancy’s mind this is not murder. What a truly stupid, twisted person.

I would love to know how “Catholic” pro-choice politicians who speak and vote pro-abortion are not automatically excommunicated. It is scandalous to the Church AND perhaps leads weak-minded Catholics astray (i.e., if Nancy Pelosi can feel that way, then so can I).

>>Pelosi,“an ardent, practicing Catholic?”

If her definition is correct, then I am the Pope.

Ergo, since I am NOT the Pope; she is a liar. QED

If it isn’t a baby at 6 months, what is the “thing” when it is put on life support outside of the womb (either from an induced early delivery or saving the baby when the mother is dead from a car accident or murder, etc.)?

And if the threshold is going to “viablity”, then that comes at like a year or two. Until they they will not be mobile enough to seek out food on their own.

When you examine the pedigree of their ideas, what you come to understand is that the abortion issue is one of the keystones to devaluing human life. This is something that is implicit in the ideology of the Left; it’s cast into their philosophical DNA.

Humans are things.

That the essence of it. Humans are fungible and ultimately disposable “assets”.

This is why you’ve got the likes of Margaret Sanger and Dr. Peter Singer doing their damndest to move the goalposts when it comes to defining life and humanity. Singer, for example, has argued that infants up to 28 months old don’t really have any cognitive ability that defines them as human. So it’s OK to ‘terminate’ them if the parent (or really, the State) so chooses.

Who lives, who dies. That’s the power they seek. They are all monsters, monsters from the deepest dark heart of of our existence and history is replete with the outcomes and the evidence of their sick Utopian ideas.

History also tells us what we must do to deal with them. As does my tagline.

“Besides, said Pelosi, even if life does begin at conception, that would not change her pro-abortion views. “The point is, is that it shouldn’t have an impact on the woman’s right to choose,” she said.”

Using that logic it’s okay for a woman to choose to drownd her 5 kids in a bath tub.

House Speaker Nancy Pelosi, D-San Francisco, described herself yesterday morning on NBC’s Meet the Press as “an ardent, practicing Catholic,” then told moderator Tom Brokaw and an audience of millions that Church teaching on when human life begins is unclear.

Pardon me but ... WTF???!!!!! I'm so sick of the media letting these CINOs tell the world about the Catholic Church. They are wrong and they know it. They just tell themselves these things to satisfy their own consciences.

Just once I’d like to hear an interviewer take to task someone who claims the believe abortion is wrong, but defends other people’s right to choose. If you BELIEVE that abortion is the killing of an innocent life — if you truly believe that — how can you allow others to take that life?

Obviously, our dear ‘speaker’ has never read the Bible...or if she has...she doesn’t give much credence to what it says. It makes no bones about when life begins.

Peggy Noonan made an interesting observation in her WSJ column: “You know why they call it birth control? Because it’s meant to stop a birth from happening nine months later. We know when life begins. Everyone who ever bought a pack of condoms knows when life begins.”

Given that answer, it is doubtful that Pelosi’s human life has yet begun.
