Rendell’s Political Filter vs. Caring for People

Jan 24, 2011 | 0 comments

Rendell views the gruesome killings in Philadelphia through a political filter. Here’s a quote from the Inquirer:

“It’s a tragic situation, obviously,” Rendell said. “All of those of us who are pro-choice abhor this, because it casts a negative light on that movement. All of us believe abortion should be legal, but that it should be safe. Clearly, what this physician was doing is not safe. It’s not safe for the mother. It’s certainly not safe for the fetus.”

Come on, Governor. You abhor this “because it casts a negative light on the movement”? Oh, please. And I guess you don’t like families who lose everything thanks to casino addiction because it casts a negative light on your beloved industry? I wonder — do you really care about people? And news flash: abortion is never “safe for the fetus.”
