Vice-President Mike Pence: “We Have a President Who, Without Apology, Stands for the Sanctity of Human Life”

...

Some of the administration’s pro-life accomplishments so far include:

Vice President Mike Pence’s speech at the 2017 March for Life in Washington DC represented the first time a sitting Vice President spoke at the March.

President Trump reinstated a policy that prevents organizations receiving federal foreign aid from performing abortions or promoting them.

President Trump nominated Judge Neil Gorsuch to the Supreme Court. Now confirmed he will be a Justice in the mold of the late beloved Justice Antonin Scalia.

President Trump appointed avid pro-lifers to key cabinet positions including Kellyanne Conway as Senior Advisor, Tom Price as Secretary of Health and Human Services, Nikki Haley as UN Ambassador, and Ben Carson as Secretary of Housing and Urban Development.

President Trump even signed an executive order saying his administration will “provide regulatory relief for religious objectors to Obamacare’s burdensome preventive services mandate, a position supported by the Supreme Court decision in Hobby Lobby.”

These pro-life accomplishments give advocates renewed hope that we will be even more successful in changing people’s minds and reminding them that they can always choose life.

Thank goodness, everyone helped out on these accomplishments with their votes.

And yet he cheerfully signed off on a CR through the end of fiscal year 2017 that fully funds Planned Parenthood.

So much for the Veep trying to make Trump something he's not.

So....you would want for him to NOT sign off on the continuing resolution, shutting down the government?

Money has already been allocated.   You don't burst in and padlock the doors....like some IRS raid.   

Let's see what happens for fiscal year 2018.   If nothing changes...I'll be upset right along with you.

[Silver Pines]

Trump doesn't stand for much of anything.  He has no ideology.

If he stood for the sanctity of human life, he wouldn't be fine with funding Planned Parenthood.

As I've said before. He could have easily kicked it back and told them to give him a bill without PP funding.

He could have had Pence go to the Capitol and put the word out..."no funding for PP in the CR".

Hell he could have even done a signing statement saying he's not going to honor their spending request.

There are plenty of things he could have done.

Something is better than nothing, Supreme Court nominee that is pro-life by all accounts, defunding Planned Parenthood by NINE MILLION DOLLARS, giving the rights back to the state to defund Planned Parenthood.

Oh, but the do nothing Senators get nothing done and get all the credit from Never Trumpers for being pro-life.

At the debates, every  GOP candidate spoke up for life; I don't think one could do more for life than what Trump has done so far.

And I'll take the words of pro-life organizations and advocates.

That money is a drop in the bucket compared to what they get in total from the Government.

I can name at least two of the candidates that could have and would have done more already.

You're lauding a man who spent his adult life forcing mistresses to get abortions and supported pro choice movements right up until he decided to claim he was Republican and run for president so he could sucker people like you.

If he's so pro life why are the people that were captured on tape negotiating the price for body parts in prison?

Doesn't Trump have the power to tell his AG to have the FBI arrest them?

 Planned Parenthood has aborted over 100,000 babies since Trump took office.
Defunding would require 1 line of legislature. @GOP lied. Again.

[TomSea]

All Trump Pence voters can be content; they did not turn their back on the right to life; vote your conscience. Now, we have the most Pro-Life president every and objectively speaking. Matthew was a tax collector. We know, we all can be instruments to do good.

Trump voters share the pro-life accomplishments, detractors can show us the accomplishments of their candidates.

Its as clearly illegal as bank robbery. The morning after my mother's death I was verbally informed by Gift of live that selling human tissue is a federal crime. When I was going through the paperwork for my mother's organ donation I was repeatedly reminded with bold print that it's a federal crime to sell human tissue.

Where the hell is Jeff Sessions on this?

[Hoodat]

HELL YES, I WOULD !!!

It beats the hell out of lying about being anti-PP.

[Hoodat]

Geez, stop lying already.  You applaud Trump for reinstating a ban that was in effect during the eight Bush years as if he has done something that has never been done before in US history.  Yet Trump had more information on Planned Parenthood than did Bush.   Trump had access to hard indisputable evidence that Planned Parenthood was selling baby body parts for profit.  Yet after learning this, he remarked that Planned Parenthood does "wonderful things".

So enough already.  Stop pushing Trump off as something he is not.  I will cheer him on for every Conservative thing he does.  And that will include halting federal funding for Planned Parenthood should he ever be compelled to do so.  But I am not going to openly lie that he is the most Pro-Life President we have ever had.  He isn't.

How do you know he 'cheerfully' signed off ?  Maybe he reluctantly signed off.

Maybe Pence's pro-Life stance will help balance things out.  Hope springs. 

Trump should have insisted on no funding for PP.  He didn't.   The pressure needs to be applied to all of the twits in DC (not just on Trump) to follow through on those campaign promises.

The abortion issue is the only 'social conservative' issue I am passionate about.  I hate it that we're still funding the evil Planned Parenthood. 

But I wouldn't go so far as to say Trump is fine with the funding.

The problem with that meme is.... Trump could have, but didn't, include a comment about PP funding in his rather extensive signing statement on that $1.1 Trillion budget.  One has to wonder... if he signed off on it reluctantly, why didn't he mention that PP funding as well?

Then don't.  We differ, however.

I don't know.  Maybe this issue is not that important to him, which is sad. 

I didn't pay much attention to his speeches in the primary.  In fact, I avoided them.  So I don't know what he specifically promised, except maybe The Wall.

I hope that all the conservatives he's appointed, along with Mike Pence, will help him understand the importance of this and he will push harder for it.

I know very well that his moral compass does not point in the same direction mine does. 

I made a decision to support him if he does something I like and also to support him against the onslaught of the false charges and fake news the media is using to discredit him.

However, this is disappointing.

I understand.  All we can do is to put pressure on our reps ... which in turn is supposed to make them put pressure on him.   I wish there was a forum out there that We, the People could post on and present our concerns.... that he would actually visit and maybe even respond on.  I know, I'm dreaming.

That explains quite a lot.

[TomSea]

On this issue, those bad mouthing Trump lose all of their moral authority, that's why they have to try to bully on this issue or even state disingenuous falsehoods. They turned their back on the most innocent and nothing changes this. The only way they can overcome this is to state to everyone that the President has the powers of Merlin the magician.

[Hoodat]

Speaking of moral authority, where do those who falsely claim Trump to be the most pro-life President ever fit into that equation?

Strawman.    ^-^

[txradioguy]

HELL YES, I WOULD !!!

It beats the hell out of lying about being anti-PP.

People seem to forget that government shutdowns...despite what the MSM and the Libs say...have actual helped Republicans.

History bears this out.

The Cruz fanatics have sided with King Herod and the slaughter of innocents, good luck with that.
