Dems Stage Morality Ploy

Dems Stage Morality Ploy

Not especially known for excursions into questions of morality, two Democrat pols have dredged up the M-word to bolster weak and fatuously immoral policy positions.

“Morality” must be the keyword in this week’s DNC talking points.

First, Senator Barbara Mikulski (D. MD) contended, “I think it’s morally wrong to vote against health care.”

Her twisted reasoning? Invoking Pro-Life sentiments, she adds, “Universal access to health care that would guarantee maternity health, sound wonderful deliveries for children, and so on, I think that’s what we want to do.”

Two cheers for Mikulski! She doesn’t merit a third cheer due to her conscious omission of any reference to the antithesis of “sound, wonderful deliveries,” the provisions for abortion funding in Obamacare.

As Karen Schuberg writes for CNS News, “The Senate health care bill permits federal tax dollars to go to health insurance plans that cover abortion. It also requires that at least one insurance plan available in the insurance ‘exchanges’ the bill will set up must cover abortion:” http://bit.ly/4CXCux

“Senator Barb” either forgot those requisites or she believes it’s morally right to terminate the innocent lives of the pre-born.

Granted, she’s never been married nor has she borne any children and there have been more than a few suggestions that she is a lesbian, http://bit.ly/8j15xB, but shouldn’t good Catholic ladies like Barb have more empathy for babies?

Senator Dianne Feinstein (D. CA) isn’t nearly as squeamish as Mikulski on the abortion question. . .
