Another Gosnell in Delaware? Three Former Planned Parenthood Employees Step Forward To Say So
Actually to call it "Another Gosnell" is misleading; we don't seem to be talking about slaughtering live-born infants here.
The charges concern abortion assistants with no medical training and "rushed abortions" which result in “sedated patients to wander down [the street] dazed and confused.”
Now, the pushback from the Late Term Abortion Super Fans on the left in the Gosnell case was Serious You Guys We Don't Support This Either and Stuff, Because #womenshealth. (They neatly ignored the murder charges against Gosnell which weren't about the deaths of clients, but of infants.)
Well, here is a case where Serious You Guys #WomensHealth is in play and once again the only people I see discussing it is pro-lifers like Kirsten Powers.
The Washington Post's Sarah Kliff infamously dismissed Gosnell as a "Local Crime Story." She covers "health issues" for the Post, which chiefly means abortion-rights issues. She also infamously squeeted (a squee in the form of a tweet) about Wendy Davis: "Open eyes, full hearts, can't stop talking!"
Well here is another woman's heath story which, if abortion is Kliff's main beat (and it is), should be of interest to Kliff. She can't even dismiss it as a Local Crime Story because Delaware is in fact local to Washington DC.
If you share an airport, you're "local."
And yet a Google search for "Kliff Delaware abortion" discloses no hits.
Are we still pretending? Does the media find some value in lying overlooked by all previous philosophers, theologists, and ethicists?
