Kathleen Turner Bashes Pence for ‘Disregarding Women’ in Abortion
Newsbusters ^ | August 8, 2018 | katie Yoder

Abortion is about women’s bodies, according to one actress. Not unborn babies’ bodies.

On August 7, Out magazine interviewed Golden Globe award-winning actress Kathleen Turner. The published piece came just hours after her Vulture interview where she spoke about, among other things, Hollywood and President Trump’s handshake. But this time she spoke about Vice President Mike Pence – and abortion.

In the middle of the piece, writer Mickey Rapkin stressed that Turner had partnered with Planned Parenthood for more than 25 years as the Chair of the Board of Advocates. She began volunteering for the nation’s largest abortion provider at the age of 19.

That led her to comment on what Rapkin called “Pence’s promise to outlaw abortion.” Rapkin didn’t elaborate on the promise, but he may have been referring to when Pence suggested in February that “we can once again, in our time, restore the sanctity of life to the center of American law.”

Turner shook her head in response to Pence.

“The disregard for women’s lives is extraordinary to me,” she told Rapkin. “What gives a man the right to say what a woman can do with her body?”

The problem is, it’s not about women’s bodies for the pro-life movment. The argument is about the unborn baby’s body.

Turner has spoken about abortion before, such as in 2015 when she called abortion barriers “fundamentally wrong.”

“Abortion is about women’s bodies, according to one actress.”

No Kathleen... abortion is about MURDERING your child because YOU dont want to be inconvenienced.

I saw picture of Kathleen Turner recently and she looks just like Sam Kinison but without the beret. As ugly on the outside as she is on the inside.

These people don't care about the baby's life.. Praying someday they wake up.

The only women who's lives are in danger regarding abortions are the ones who have botched abortions.

She was a real beauty years ago . . . But it’s all gone now. She looks like she’s had too many cheeseburgers.

“The disregard for women’s lives is extraordinary to me,” she told Rapkin.

It is extraordinary how some people can disconnect the fact that over half of the aborted/murdered babies (and well over half in third world countries) are "women". Saying that it is OK to kill them, because they are still in the womb, is a total disregard for women's (and men's) lives.

“What gives a man the right to say what a woman can do with her body?”

Probably someone who fears God and remembers that HE said 'Thou shalt not kill [murder]'. And remembers God's repulsion at the abominable murder of babies offered to false gods (Jeremiah 32:35)

It makes you wonder why woman (or men) even bother with contraception since abortion has taken its place.

When discussing “Choice”, it’s when you decide to spread your legs. After that, the choice has already been made.

Not only is she old and fat but her last big role was playing a transgender man on the TV show Friends. Today Hollywood would vilify her for taking a job from an actual freak.

Yikes! More chins then a Chinese phone book. I’ll bet she can give Hillary a run for her money in the cankle department.
Nobody can touch Loretta Lynch though.. Her cankles have rolls.

She peaked in Body Heat. It’s been all downhill since then. And it’s been a very steep hill. Matterhorn steep.
