With the curtain closed on the Democratic National Convention, one pro-lifer is certain about where the party stands on life issues.
Marilyn Musgrave, spokesperson for the Susan B. Anthony List, says the party's pro-abortion stance was evidenced by the selection of speakers at the DNC. Two of them were Nancy Keenan of NARAL and Planned Parenthood President Cecile Richards.
"Well, the fact that Cecile Richards was there really speaks to the extreme position of the party [that's] very evident in their platform," Musgrave asserts. "Also this reflects her close relationship with the most pro-abortion president ever."
Upon listening to Richards' speech, the SBA List spokesperson noticed that the fact that Planned Parenthood kills more than 300,000 preborn babies each year was missing -- "or even the word 'abortion,' for that matter."
"Talking about women's health -- abortion is not healthcare," Musgrave asserts. "Planned Parenthood has gotten by with this image of providing healthcare. Their money comes in from abortions -- that's what they're all about."
Richards claimed that several million women would be denied health services like cancer screenings without Planned Parenthood. But the fact is those services are available through other sources that do not do abortions.
Musgrave goes on to stress that the party platform seeks no restrictions at all on abortion, even late-term and sex-selection.
