Never mind that science has confirmed for some time that human life begins at conception and the union of sperm and egg creates a unique human being with a DNA code that matches no one else ever conceived.
Nancy Pelosi believes pro-life advocates who think human life starts at conception are just “dumb.”
At Planned Parenthood’s annual gala last night, attendees and your PULSEr stopped laughing at comedian and emcee Tig Notaro just long enough to watch Nancy Pelosi receive the Margaret Sanger award for her work defending abortion rights. In her acceptance speech, Pelosi slammed abortion opponents, especially criticized the “personhood” laws some of them are pushing and said the struggle for reproductive rights will continue whatever SCOTUS decides on the contraception mandate.
–”When you see how closed their minds are or oblivious or whatever it is — dumb — then you know what the fight is about,” Pelosi said. “Whatever happens with the court…we must remember these battles will not be the end of the fight,” she added. Former New York Mayor Michael Bloomberg was also awarded.
Here’s how Marjorie Dannenfelser of the Susan B. Anthony List reacted, in an email to LifeNews:
Last night, Nancy Pelosi accepted Planned Parenthood’s highest honor – the Margaret Sanger Award – at their annual gala. Now, that’s enough to make most people’s blood boil.
Sanger – the founder of Planned Parenthood – was a racist eugenicist who called African Americans, immigrants and the poor “human weeds,” “reckless breeders,” “spawning… human beings who never should have been born.”
But wait until you read this – Politico is reporting that, in accepting the award, Pelosi called pro-lifers “dumb,” “closed-minded,” and “oblivious.” I don’t know how you feel right now after reading this, but frankly, I think pro-lifers should take these insults as a badge of honor.
Pelosi knows that abortion on-demand is absolutely indefensible, so she’s resorted to elementary school name-calling.
How is it “dumb” that we accept the scientific fact that life begins at conception?
And how is it “close-minded” that we want to protect women when study after study shows just how much abortion hurts women?
The truth is, I think we got under Nancy Pelosi’s skin yesterday.
You see, pro-lifers across the country participated in a TweetFest social media campaign to educate Nancy Pelosi about Margaret Sanger’s hateful legacy.
She was a well known eugenicist who thought birth control and abortion were the best way to “create a race of thoroughbreds.” Sanger believed in forced sterilization of “the feeble minded,” and said that “the most merciful thing that a large family does to one of its infant members is to kill it.”
We presented Nancy Pelosi with facts about Margaret Sanger, and instead of attempting to defend the indefensible, she resorted to name calling instead.
When she stands before Jesus, she will learn who was the “dumb” one.
I’ve always wondered what the Brilliant Bela Pelosi... queen of the Washington Undead.. thoughu.. began....at conception!
I believe in science...unless it prevents me from cutting up a human in the womb and sucking the parts out into a medical waste bag because it may cut into my me time.
Calling her a runt (rhymes with) would be paying her a complement.
Perhaps she’d like to explain her concept of human life to the Pope, and most particularly her bishop, who ought to have excommunicated this ungodly woman decades ago.
I believe the closer we get to the midterms the more off the wall this crazy woman will get.Should be real entertaining.
Well obviously for her, conception had not a thing to do with intelligence and she seems determined to prove it repeatedly.
And she still considers herself Roman Catholic. Unbelievable.
bump
Was it a pro-life thread here or I heard it elsewhere, Margaret Sanger said life began at conception too.
Something like this:
“Margaret Sanger, a founder of Planned Parenthood, wrote in her autobiography that an abortion at any stage is the taking of a human life.”
You can’t make up what the Democrats say, Pelosi herself and to her credit has had a number of children I understand, she knows better.
I'd like her bishop to explain why she hasn't been.
Princess Pelosi says we are dumb for believing that life begins at conception. I hope she tells Pope Francis that his too is dumb for believing that the next time she visits him
Too bad Nancy’s mother didn’t visit a Planned Parenthood clinic when she conceived that piece of crap, that’s an abortion that I would have supported
Baby kicks in the belly are from (wait for it)....... A BABY..
San Fran Nan is supposedly a Catholic and she says people are dumb for believing life begins at conception?
She needs psychiatric help, badly.
“Conceiving” is life. After all these trials and errors between mate competitions, selections, seasons and sperm counts, they destroy the child.
When you are stupid you should be silent and not broadcast to everyone.
Good! We need more of this kind of talk! Nancy Pelosi’s incoherent, and depraved outlook on everything should remind us every day to mobilize in droves this November to prevent her from, once again, reuniting with the Speaker’s gavel.
Remember the first two years of the Obama presidency, and consider how much more damage can be done even after all of the damage that has already been done.
Again, I hope she keeps up this kind of talk to at least motivate us (and mostly the ones who decided to stay home 2 years ago) to go to the polls.
“When you see how closed their minds are or oblivious or whatever it is — dumb — then you know what the fight is about”
Gee ... the same could be said of the pro-choicers who refuse to see the science behind fetal development. By the time a woman has an abortion, that BABY has arms, legs, fingers, eyes, heartbeat, its own blood type, DNA, etc.
Closed minds.
