Feinstein: Barrett hearing witness will include woman who 'fought' for 'right to obtain an abortion at age 16'
The witness 'will speak about the importance of reproductive rights and justice'
By Audrey Conklin | Fox News

    Sen. Dianne Feinstein, D-Calif., will present a witness who "fought" for the "right to obtain an abortion at age 16" during Judge Amy Coney Barrett's third day of Supreme Court confirmation hearings on Wednesday.

Feinstein's witness, Crystal Good, will appear after the California senator on Tuesday pressed Barrett, a Catholic mother of seven children -- two of whom she and her husband adopted, about her views on Roe v. Wade.

Good "fought for her right to obtain an abortion at age 16" and "will speak about the importance of reproductive rights and justice," according to a press release from Feinstein's office.

I'm so old I remember when Pro-Life people were the ones denigrated as "Single-Issue Voters".

The name and contact information is given to the Senators on the Committee a week or so prior to the hearing.  It's to prevent them from being blind-sided in a hearing, and do a cursory check of the biography.  Blassey-Ford was vetted.  This person sounds like she was not.

Considering how bad Ford was (lying, faking, etc.).... will it really matter if the witness is vetted?  It's going to be a leftie lie-fest any way.

Well it's been a "dog and pony" show since the get go with the blown up images of suffering folks that the Senate Democrats keep referring to for sympathy.  Emotional manipulation IS their trademark.  I just saw Booker speak to Barrett with so much emotion, and she was looking disturbed (sad?)....  That poor woman should take a nice vacation if she can before putting on the black robe!

A 16 year old 'fought' for an abortion?

How far have we sunk to?

In previous generations, this could result in the parents being yanked into court under child endangerment of a minor for no control of that child.

And it is likely that the guy was not a minor so rape charges are possible as well.

Who has actually "fought" to get an abortion post-1973? This is nonsense.
