Protecting Unborn Lives = Defending Human Rights #IStandwithKirsten

Protecting Unborn Lives = Defending Human Rights #IStandwithKirsten   Kirsten Powers has made a lot of people think recently.  She challenged the media’s silence on the Gosnell trial.  She pointed out that most women do not in fact support late-term abortion.  And she’s challenging the narrative that defenders of legalized abortion are on the side of human rights.   Kirsten Powers challenged this, saying, “Human-rights movements have traditionally existed to help the voiceless and those without agency gain progressively more rights.

Kathy Dahlkemper Remarks - Democratic National Convention

Kathy Dahlkemper - DNC 2012 Democrats for Life of America Panel Tuesday, September 4   I am a Proud Democrat.  I am a proud Pro-life Democrat.  And I often refer to myself as a Whole Life Democrat because I believe in the sanctity of lIfe from conception to natural death.  This believe wraps around the ideals of Social Justice, of honoring human dignity, of focusing on the Common Good.

Remarks by Tom Berg - Democratic National Convention

Tom Berg - DNC 2012 Democrats for Life of America Panel Tuesday, September 4 Why do I call myself a pro-life Democrat, and why do I work with an organization called Democrats for Life?  For two reasons: I believe in the overall values the Democratic Party has stood for, and I believe the problem of abortion cannot be seriously addressed without those values.
