Anchor Dares to Ask Planned Parenthood Boss When Life Begins

She Avoids Answering, Says It 'Isn't Really Relevant'

Cecile Richards, president of Planned Parenthood, America’s largest abortion conglomerate, did an interview Thursday on the new Fusion network with anchorman Jorge Ramos.

The section sparking everyone’s attention came when Ramos – self-respecting enough to offer more than the piffle a Ronan Farrow offers on MSNBC – asked when life begins for Richards. She labored mightily not to answer, since abortion advocates eschew science and believe that women should be able to abort even AFTER a child is born:

JORGE RAMOS: Can I ask you a philosophical question?

CECILE RICHARDS: Sure.

RAMOS So for you, when does life start? When does a human being become a human being?

RICHARDS This is a question, I think, that will be debated through the centuries, and people come down to very different views on that.

RAMOS But for you, what’s the point?

RICHARDS It is not something that I feel like is really part of this conversation. I mean, to me, we work with women – I guess the way I’d really like to I think every woman has to make her own decision. What we do at Planned Parenthood is make sure that women have all their options for health care, and they have the option to have a healthy pregnancy, they have the option to put a child up for adoption if they decide to carry the pregnancy to term, or they have the right to make a decision to terminate a pregnancy.

Ramos tried to pierce through the moral relativism one more time, and Richards repeated "I don’t think it’s really relevant to the conversation," but then she said for her three children, their “life began when I delivered them.”

So, that little piece of flesh thumping around in a woman’s womb is not yet alive??? Makes me wonder just how that piece of flesh is able to move around like that. Is it some kind of a trick? Must be because this Planned Parenthood president says a baby is not alive until it is born. So, somehow as it is coming down the birth channel, a switch is turned to the “on” position, and the ball of flesh turns into a live human being. Astounding. This woman appears to have a lower IQ than the late Rodney King.

The reporter should have followed up with another question: OK then, can you tell me how far the baby can be delivered outside the mother’s body before it is killed, up to the neck, up to the waist, up to the toes? Could one of your three children have been terminated during the delivery process that was halfway out if you had wanted to?

Well, in my experience, any pregnant woman I’ve ever known refers to the developing fetus as a baby. They will make comments about feeling the baby move, feeling the baby kick, etc. Every woman I’ve ever known thought of her pregnancy as a condition in which her baby was already alive.

It was never not alive. At the moment of conception, a NEW, living individual came into existence. It is obviously human.

The jury is not out on this. It’s a fact, obtained by observation.

Unfortunately, many “scientists” are silent on this, scared to death of the vengeful wrath of militant fang-toothed feminazis.

This is the late Ann Richards’ daughter, a shameless champion of baby killing and a source of deep regret to Texans who have a moral code against killing the most defenseless among us, the preborn.

Yup. The moment that sperm cell makes contact with the egg the miracle of life begins.

And paid well to be a liar...

President Cecile Richards defended her nearly $400,000 annual salary, saying she works “hard” for it.

“It were better for him that a millstone were hanged about his neck, and he cast into the sea, than that he should offend one of these little ones.” Luke 17:2

“Take heed that ye despise not one of these little ones; for I say unto you, That in heaven their angels do always behold the face of my Father which is in heaven” Matthew 18:10

“And a mighty angel took up a stone like a great millstone, and cast it into the sea, saying, Thus with violence shall that great city Babylon be thrown down, and shall be found no more at all.” Revelation 18:21

Three? Good argument for a ban on sperm banks. Thanks chessplayer.
