Sen. Ben Sasse (R-Neb.) Wanted To Put The Entire Senate On Record On The Issue Of Murdering Babies.
FEB 5, 2019
The overwhelming majority of Americans agree that murdering a newborn baby is among the most vile forms of evil imaginable, so when one senator decided to put his colleagues on record agreeing with those sentiments, he probably didn’t expect the response he got from the Democratic Party.
Sen. Ben Sasse (R-Neb.), oftentimes a thorn in the side of President Donald Trump, brought his bill, the Born-Alive Abortion Survivors Protection Act, to the Senate floor late last week. In introducing his bill, the senator noted his legislation shouldn’t even be a partisan issue:
“This body fancies itself the world’s greatest deliberative body, but we would be deceiving ourselves if we ignored the biggest debate that’s been happening in America over the last 36 hours.
“A public elected official, the governor of one of the 50 states, has been defending a practice that is morally repugnant. The governor of Virginia has been defending a practice that is repugnant to civilized people across the entire world …
“Let’s be really clear about what we’re talking about here. We’re talking about fourth-trimester abortion—or what anyone in the normal world calls infanticide. That’s what we’re talking about, and the governor of Virginia has been defending this all day yesterday and again today, going out and trying to equivocate and qualify and then double down and against say he wants to defend this practice, which is infanticide.
“Let’s be clear what we’re talking about. We’re talking about killing a baby that’s been born. We’re not talking about some euphemism, we’re not talking about a clump of cells. We’re talking about a little baby girl who’s been born and is on a table in a hospital or a medical facility and then a decision or debate would be had about whether or not you could kill that little baby.
“We’re talking about the most vulnerable among us, and we have a public official in America out there, again and again, defending a practice; this is infanticide that we’re talking about. This should be so far beyond any political consideration. We’re talking about a little baby. A baby with dignity. An image bearer.
“We’re talking about a tiny life that has done nothing wrong to warrant being left to die cold and alone on a table. Everyone in this Senate ought to be able to say unequivocally that killing that little baby is wrong.”
“This doesn’t take any political courage. And if you can’t say that, if there’s a member of this body that can’t say that, there may be lots of work you can do in the world, but you shouldn’t be here. You should get the heck out of any calling in public life where you pretend to care about the most vulnerable among us CLICK THIS THIS LINK FOR THE REST OF THE STORY @ https://www.trunews.com/stream/democrats-show-their-true-colors-on-infanticide.
