Abort and pass the wine

Sun., July 26, 2015

Kathleen Parker’s July 19 commentary was one of her strongest opinion pieces in years. Planned Parenthood’s medical director, Dr. Deborah Nucatola, is correctly described as a modern elitist with no moral values whatsoever. The Hippocratic Oath obviously means nothing to this modern-day version of past medical “experts” who have dabbled in the killing of innocents for “medical scholarship.”

Abortions constitute the killing of unborn human beings. Their screams of innocence are from the grave and, unfortunately, they do not register in today’s amoral world, where unborn children are murdered and aged seniors and the seriously ill are encouraged to commit suicide. Oh well, c’est la vie, and please pass the wine.
