Michigan Governor Says A******n Is 'Life-Sustaining'Tyler O'Neil ~ April 17, 2020Gov. Gretchen Whitmer (D-Mich.) took a break from banning the sale of seeds to push some Orwellian talking points about baby-k*****g during the c****av***s p******c on Thursday. Some states have temporarily banned most forms of a******n as non-essential elective surgeries, in order to save valuable medical equipment. Yet Whitmer has judged baby-k*****g essential, and she told former Obama advisor David Axelrod why.
"As we speak, in Texas and a couple of other states, I think Ohio may be another, the state has asked to suspend a******n services as part of this C****-** protocol," Axelrod noted. "This is probably gonna go to the Supreme Court.
What is your reaction to that? You’re a governor, you have to make these decisions as well, there are other procedures that have been suspended."
"You know, we stopped elective surgeries here in Michigan, and some people have tried to say that that type of a procedure is considered the same, and that’s ridiculous," Whitmer said.
"You know, a woman’s health care, her whole future, her ability to decide if and when she starts a family is not an e******n, it is a fundamental to her life," the governor insisted. "It is life-sustaining, and it’s something that government should not be getting in the middle of."
Yes, the governor said a******n — the procedure that k**ls a human baby in the womb — is "life-sustaining."
Of course, she is correct that a woman should be free "to decide if and when she starts a family," and the government has no business making that decision for her. Yet the government does have the right — nay, the duty — to protect human life. By the time a******n is "necessary" for a woman's decision not to become a mother, that woman has already engaged in the act that, by its very nature, brings life into the world.
When Democrats like Whitmer claim that a******n is necessary for a woman to decide whether or not she will become a mother, they are depriving women of the agency to say "no" to having sex in the first place.
Only by such an Orwellian redefinition of freedom can Whitmer justify an act of k*****g as "life-sustaining." Yet Whitmer has shown herself more than up to the task. In the name of fighting the c****av***s, she has ordered large stores to close off areas meant for carpeting, flooring, furniture, gardening, and paint. As Michiganders find new ways to occupy their time during the c****av***s lockdown, this tyrant is roping off possibilities, just as her rhetoric denies women agency.
Michiganders have taken to the streets in their cars for a mass protest against Whitmer's overly restrictive orders.
Sadly, it seems no amount of protest will encourage pro-a******n Democrats to reconsider their support for k*****g babies in the womb. Yet Americans must continue to speak up on the issue. K*****g babies is the opposite of "life-sustaining."
