contrary to the false claims made by Democrat presidential candidate Hillary Clinton during Wednesday evening’s debate – few, if any, of those abortions occurred because of the “life and health of the mother” or “something terrible” being discovered about the pregnancy.
Pro-life leader Lila Rose says Donald Trump’s comments Thursday that he will change the GOP’s platform on abortion to include exceptions for rape, incest, and the life of the mother imply that babies conceived in rape are “less worthy” of protection from abortion than others.
Democratic presidential candidate Hillary Clinton wants to differentiate herself from rival Bernie Sanders on a question about limiting abortion rights by asserting she favors a “late-pregnancy regulation” with ‘”exceptions for the life and health of the mother” – a “restriction” that is essentially meaningless.
National pro-life leaders are weighing in on the attacks waged against Sen. Marco Rubio by GOP rivals Gov. Chris Christie and former Florida Gov. Jeb Bush that he is too pro-life because he does not favor abortion in the cases of pregnancy brought about due to rape or incest.
Several of the Republican candidates for president battled the question of abortion on the debate stage in New Hampshire, and, in particular, the issue of the “exceptions,” i.e. rape, incest, and the life of the mother.
The GOP candidates have been attacking each other’s positions on abortion, specifically the abortion “exceptions” such as in the cases of rape, incest, and when the life of the mother is endangered.
