Idaho Republicans Are Pro-Death-No exceptions for abortion when it can save the life of a woman

[salon]

Disgusting. Many women have pregnancy complications that could cause them to die and require an abortion. Mouth-breathers who glorify death by taking away an actual living woman's health are sick. And, hypocrites unless they go after the military next.

The platform states: "We affirm that abortion is murder from the moment of fertilization. All children should be protected regardless of the circumstances of conception, including persons conceived in rape and incest."

 

Scott Herndon, a Republican candidate who is running unopposed for the Idaho Senate, argued against the exception being included.

"For the last 49 years we have essentially lost the argument in the culture because we have focused on abortion as the termination of a pregnancy and not the termination of a living human being," Herndon told delegates, the Idaho Capital Sun reported.
