On January 18, while appearing on former Secretary of State Hillary Clinton’s podcast, “You and Me Both with Hillary Clinton,” House Speaker Nancy Pelosi threw pro-life Americans under the bus, claiming they would “sell” America down the river for the life issue.
“When you take the greed of those who want their tax cuts, that’s probably a small number [of voters], but nonetheless a number,” said Pelosi. She added, “then you take the abortion issue—and many of these people are very good people; that’s just their point of view. But they were willing to sell the whole democracy down the river for that one issue.”
Pelosi’s comment implies pro-life voters are “sellouts” on the single issue, despite many people of faith holding the issue as one of high importance. She also noted that religious pro-life voters’ support for President Donald Trump “gives me great grief as a Catholic.”
Also during the podcast, Pelosi said that when Trump released a list of judges he would put on the bench when he got to the White House, it was a “dog whistle to the Evangelicals, to the Catholics, and all the rest: a woman will not have the right to choose.”
Pelosi identifies as a Catholic, however, she supports no restrictions on abortion, saying, “Today, we stand firm in our obligation to ensure that every woman has the right to make her own health decisions in consultation with her family, her physician and her faith, and without the interference of politicians or employers.”
I wonder why Democrats can’t compromise on the abortion issue, it always fascinates me. They don’t want any limits on abortion, even though the rest of the world thinks that position is insane as do 85% of Americans. No abortions after 20 weeks, pretty much the standard in most developed countries that allow abortion and yet that isn’t acceptable. The opinion polls would move in their favor if they agreed with that one simple point and yet they are unwavering in wanting to be able to strangle a kid right out of the womb, it is sick and that is why 85% agree that there be some limits on abortion.
Not sure of the strategy by the Dems on this accept to make it somehow a fight for or against women. I am sure this is the real point because if Democrats in leadership actually cared this much about abortion wouldn’t they have gone and had laws passed to protect the right to an abortion instead of relying on a court case to determine the rule?
Such a hypocrite! Pelosi as a devout catholic supports abortion including the barbaric post birth abortion. And then she thinks she can criticize us. Selling the country down the river?
Is anyone surprized!
Pelosi, you are not much of a Catholic if you are pro abortion. You probably never read your Bible if you have one. You should !
Nancy Pelosi identifying as a “catholic” is like a harry old fat guy identifying as a little girl. Same principal!
She needs to tell that to her maker when she is standing in judgement before Him. No ice cream where she will end up.
What a bunch of crap. Two old Democrat Hags and their hypocrisy.
Both claiming to be religious, not only
support late term abortion but voted down a law to save a child that survived
Abortion. I wish their mothers would have aborted them and saved America the agony of their selfish and misguided views of Murder of Convenience.
Disgusting
According to Catholic teachings, Pelosi is not a Catholic in good standing because of her support for abortion. If she attends mass (I don’t know if she does or doesn’t), her priest would be acting properly under church law to refuse her communion. As a Catholic, I am offended by her insistence that she is Catholic, despite her not unwillingness to follow the doctrines of the church.
Nancy Pelosi is the most evil person in the history of America..
She’s going to pay dearly for her actions.
This is not a threat..it is from God.
Piglosi is a hateful old witch who embraces killing the unborn. There might be a place in hell for her.
BIDEN and Fauci now are backing killing Humans by Abortion Some Devout Catholic. And nut job Fauci is and Expert in Pregnancies . i thought he was infectious disease expert! a EXPERT is a has-been and a drip under pressure . Fauci makes 423,000.00. more than the president he is the highest paid federal official in America . our country just went down the drain
Pelosi is nothing but a pig atheist
God says He knew us before we were in our mothers womb!!
I do not think God intends or approves of us killing His creation.
Pelosi is a despicable filthy Demo-Rat that should be removed immediately!
Sometimes women that have had abortions feel guilty and try to justify it, therefore, they are rabid if anyone implies it is wrong. For those that are for it but also don’t claim to be Christians, it is more understandable because they have no convictions about it. However, Biden and Pelosi claim to be Catholics but this goes against the Catholic beliefs, so how can they reconcile advocating abortion while at the same time spouting they are good Catholics?
