Throwing it out there ...
From Peggy Noonan over the weekend:
From Hugh Hewitt today [quote from Nancy Pelosi on Meet the Press, Sunday]:
Oi. The religion that has never allowed contraceptives now supposedly has been going back and forth on when life begins? I don't really think so. Individual Catholics may have their doubts ... and as information regarding pregnancy evolved I'm sure some of their teachings did too ... but not for one second has the Catholic church ever thought that abortion was a-okay.
And we do know when life begins. Just ask anyone that's trying to get pregnant. We do know. It's just not politically expedient for her to say. It's even more disheartening to me, because the woman has children of her own.
It's stupid of her to try and win the abortion debate while maintaining her religious sanctimony. And if she fully believes that life starts at 3 months, how does she defend her voting record on late term and partial birth abortions?
As to the question when human life begins, the answer to which is above Mr. Obama's pay grade, oh, let's go on a little tear. You know why they call it birth control? Because it's meant to stop a birth from happening nine months later. We know when life begins. Everyone who ever bought a pack of condoms knows when life begins.
To put it another way, with conception something begins. What do you think it is? A car? A 1948 Buick?
From Hugh Hewitt today [quote from Nancy Pelosi on Meet the Press, Sunday]:
REP. PELOSI: And what I know is, over the centuries, the doctors of the church have not been able to make that definition. And Senator--St. Augustine said at three months. We don't know. The point is, is that it shouldn't have an impact on the woman's right to choose. . . . As I say, the Catholic Church for centuries has been discussing this, and there are those who've decided...
MR. BROKAW: The Catholic Church at the moment feels very strongly that it...
REP. PELOSI: I understand that.
MR. BROKAW: ...begins at the point of conception.
REP. PELOSI: I understand. And this is like maybe 50 years or something like that. So again, over the history of the church, this is an issue of controversy.
