It’s difficult to understand why an entire group of people would go so far as to vote against literally murdering a child outside the womb after it’s born, but that’s exactly what Democrats did in solidarity against Nebraska Sen. Ben Sasse’s recent legislation. All but three, of course.
To be clear, Sasse’s bill would protect babies born alive after failed abortion attempts. Only three Democrats thought killing babies outside the womb was wrong enough to oppose it, because Daily Caller highlighted:
Pennsylvania Democratic Senator Bob Casey voted with Republican Sen. Pat Toomey, also of the Keystone State, who co-sponsored the Sasse bill. Alabama Democratic Sen. Doug Jones, who recently won his seat from Republicans, also voted with Republicans Monday.
West Virginia Democratic Senator Joe Manchin was the third Democrat to cross over on this particular issue — a move many likely expected given some of his recent comments. Manchin was one of a handful of Democrats to stand during President Donald Trump’s State of the Union address, when the president called for an end to abortion after an unborn child can feel pain.
West Virginia state senator who has voted with the Republicans in several notable cases recently it has been explained, “Late-term abortions are just awful… just plain wrong.”
The prisoners now run the Democratic Party asylum. The Democrats voted for barbarity. Killing children they failed to kill before.
To be clear, we are not even talking about abortion or “women’s health” anymore. We are talking about a baby that is alive and kicking and under medical care. Democrats voted to allow that baby to be murdered. Not abortion.
Kill him.
Fortunately, Republicans are not willing to give up so easily. Majority Leader Mitch McConnell has made that promise.
“That would be a pretty disturbing statement,” McConnell said of Democrats’ final vote to deny infant protections. “If they inexplicably block Senator Sasse’s action, I can assure them that it won’t be the last time we try to provide all newborns with these basic legal protections.”
