Pelosi’s real morals

Was Pelosi driven by a Catholic-bred sense of moral obligation in leading her party toward impeaching the president?

When asked about Trump, Pelosi said, “I don’t hate anyone.” I read (Karen) Tumulty’s article (“Pelosi guided by her Catholocism,” Dec. 7) with that mantra ringing in my ear. When I read text I sift: what is said versus what is done.

Here is what I know about Pelosi.

She has worked to finance Planned Parenthood with federal dollars - Planned Parenthood the number one abortion provider in the U.S. She has worked to remove all restraints against abortion, which when proposed in the ‘70s was to be safe and rare. She supports abortion for victims of incest/rape, never mind the victims of abortion whose beating hearts are stopped. She supports a woman’s right to choose, a slogan coined for the left by a New York ad agency.

Did you see her on the floor of the House when the final coup was enacted: abortion on demand through all three terms and beyond? She was giddy.

Pelosi cannot claim that she does not hate anyone because she champions everyone except the most vulnerable citizens, our babies in the womb. It genocide in the U.S., on her watch, at her hands.
