Nancy Pelosi will receive the Margaret Sanger award — the top honor given out by the Planned Parenthood abortion business.
Planned Parenthood Federation of America announced today that House Democratic Leader Nancy Pelosi will deliver remarks at the organization’s Annual Gala in Washington on march 27, where she will receive the award. Planned Parenthood is awarding Leader Pelosi the Margaret Sanger Award, the organization’s highest honor, “in recognition of her leadership, excellence, and outstanding contributions to” the pro-abortion movement during her career.
The president of the abortion business announced the award today, though she never mentioned abortion — instead couching her remarks in “women’s health.”
“On behalf of Planned Parenthood and the millions of patients we serve each year, it gives me great pleasure to announce that House Democratic Leader Nancy Pelosi will receive the Planned Parenthood Federation of America Margaret Sanger Award, our highest recognition of leadership, excellence, and outstanding contributions to the reproductive health and rights movement,” said Cecile Richards, President, Planned Parenthood Federation of America.
“No one is more deserving of this honor than Leader Pelosi, who has fought tirelessly throughout her career to protect and expand women’s access to health care. As the first woman to serve as Speaker of the House, Leader Pelosi recognized that women’s health is a mainstream issue impacting women and families. Her leadership in passing the Affordable Care Act and her ongoing commitment ensures that the promise of the law is realized for millions of women as the greatest advancement for women’s health in a generation,” said Richards.
Some of the previous Margaret Sanger award winners include Hillary Clinton, Katharine Hepburn, Bella Abzug, Justice Harry Blackmun, Dolores Huerta, and Dr. Ruth.
The award comes one month after Cardinal Raymond Burke, the former archbishop of St. Louis and now the chief justice at the Vatican’s highest court, said prohibiting Pelosi from receiving Communion”makes perfect sense.”
This isn’t the first time Burke has said she should not receive communion.
In a September interview with The Wanderer, a Catholic newspaper, Raymond Leo Cardinal Burke, prefect of the Supreme Tribunal of the Apostolic Signatura in Rome, sheds light on Pelosi and communion. He issued a call for pro-abortion politicians to be denied the sacrament — saying that Catholic Canon law must be applied to them.
In July, Pelosi was at it again — with another crass comment on the abortion issue. This time, she went after pro-life Republicans saying they need a lesson in Sex Education 101. She attacked pro-life legislators in state legislatures across the nation who are passing new pro-life laws to limit abortions in places like Texas and North Carolina, saying they needed a lesson on “the birds and the bees.”
The recent comments come after Pelosi put her foot in her mouth during a press conference, calling the battle to keep late-term abortions legal sacred ground.
wouldnt you like to see her face infront of God
Fitting that Pelosi will get this "award".
We need a law that requires all late term abortions to be televised and then stored on YouTube.
I have yet to see a picture of Miss America with her mouth closed.
Maybe it should read, “For your tireless work in the deaths of 55 million babies”.
Absolutely qualifies her for a 1,000° hotter spot in Hell!
I have lost a lot of faith in the wisdom of the Catholic Church hierarchy that hasn’t excommunicated this satanic politico.
It can be considered a virtue to pray for the death of some.
Hatred: “...not only may I, but I even ought to, hate what is contrary to the moral law. Furthermore one may without sin go so far in the detestation of wrongdoing as to wish that which for its perpetrator is a very well-defined evil, yet under another aspect is a much more signal good. For instance, it would be lawful to pray for the death of a perniciously active heresiarch with a view to putting a stop to his ravages among the Christian people.”

Perfect.
I’m convinced the woman has no soul.
Somehow, I missed that quote. Dear God in Heaven, what kind of Catholic says that?
The award should be a coat hanger.
I did so enjoy when Pope Benedict told her no photo op and lectured her on these things. Made my heart proud. She is so full of herself, she didn’t listen, but he tried.
How very special for the liberal, catholic Trinity College graduate.
Only in the diseased mind of a progressive / libtard is killing a innocent human being considered "women’s access to health care"
In your charity, you MUST pray for her conversion back to Christ. It will be worse for her because she knew the truth, but chose to turn her back on it and warp it into evil. The fact that she says that “as a practicing Catholic abortion is sacred ground” shows how truly demented she is. Calling evil good is the fruit of a twisted soul. A truly God-fearing person would never even think such a thing. She must have lost her faith somewhere along the way.
That being said, my daily prayer is that if their (all of them) hearts are hardened and they refuse to return to God, that He remove them from power by any means necessary. Maybe that will wake them up to the fact that there will be eternal consequences to their actions.
“I like the Pope,” Pelosi said. She added that “the Holy Spirit did a really good job this time” picking the Pope and that Francis is “very nun-like in his attitudes, in his statements.”
Feel the love!...
