Maher, who once <a href=\"https:\/\/archive.liveaction.org\/news\/audience-laughs-bill-maher-almost-aborted\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">admitted<\/a> to having almost been a victim of abortion, expressed his anger with an inappropriate and offensive comment about rape survivors and their children conceived in rape.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;Once this new justice is seated, Obamacare is likely gone and after that <em>Roe v.

So my message is that Bill does not speak for me. He doesn&#8217;t. He is not the national spokesperson for mothers from rape.
