The two candidates appeared separately, but Bret Baier asked both abortion defenders whether they would be willing to draw the line at any stage of pregnancy.<\/p>\n<p>Both candidates gave answers that are sure to satisfy their bases, but also make clear they haven\u2019t been thought out on any deeper level.<\/p>\n<p><!--more-->First came Sanders, who reiterated his <a href=\"\/news\/clinton-sanders-kneel-abortion-lobby-latest-democrat-debate\/\">nonsensical smear<\/a> that pro-lifers are hypocrites for wanting to \u201cget government off our backs\u201d yet believing government has\u00a0a role in protecting children from violence (think about it). As to the specific answer of whether he could \u201cname a single circumstance at any point in a pregnancy in which you would be OK with abortion being illegal\u201d:<\/p>\n<blockquote>\n<p style=\"padding-left: 30px;\">It&#8217;s not a question of me being okay. This will &#8211; thank you for the question, but I happen to believe &#8212; and let me be very clear about it. I know not everybody here will agree with me. I happen to believe that it is wrong for the government to be telling a woman what to do with her own body [\u2026] I am very strongly pro-choice. That is a decision to be made by the woman, her physician and her family. That&#8217;s my view.<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n<p>This is perfectly in keeping with Sanders\u2019 <a href=\"\/news\/closer-look-pro-abortion-radicalism-bernie-sanders\/\">pro-abortion record<\/a>\u2014which consists of opposing every conceivable abortion regulation to come his way, forcing pro-life Americans to fund abortion, taking away states\u2019 rights to make virtually any decision about abortion law, opposing legal recognition of wanted preborn babies, and more\u2014but offers no justification for his absolutism.<\/p>\n<p>At what point is it no longer solely a question of \u201cher own body\u201d? Why are almost fully-developed babies &#8211; potentially able to feel pain and survive outside the womb &#8211; still deserving of no protection? If you support early- and late-term abortions equally, then are you conceding early-stage embryos are just as alive and human as third-trimester fetuses? These are all follow-up questions raised by Sanders\u2019s answer\u2026 questions, sadly, that went unasked.<\/p>\n<p>Later, Baier also put the question to Clinton, who first tried to get away with a generic call to \u201cstand up for a woman&#8217;s right to make these decisions,\u201d which are \u201chighly personal,\u201d \u201cand to defend Planned Parenthood.\u201d When Baier asked for clarification about exceptions, she answered:<\/p>\n<blockquote>\n<p style=\"padding-left: 30px;\">I have been on record in favor of a late pregnancy regulation that would have exceptions for the life and health of the mother. I object to the recent effort in Congress to pass a law saying after 20 weeks, you know, no such exceptions, because although these are rare, Bret, they sometimes arise in the most complex, difficult medical situation [\u2026] And so I think it is &#8212; under Roe v. Wade, it is appropriate to say, in these circumstances, so long as there&#8217;s an exception for the life and health of the mother.<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n<p>Hillary\u2019s <a href=\"\/news\/safe-legal-rare-mantra-traps-hillary-clinton-rock-crazy-place\/\">pro-abortion record<\/a> is every bit as uncompromising as Sanders\u2019s but she knows how to <em>pretend<\/em>\u00a0reasonable. And what could be more reasonable than keeping women\u2019s health in mind?<\/p>\n<p>Unfortunately, as we\u2019ve <a href=\"\/news\/rubio-right-call-hillary-clinton-pro-abortion-even-due-date\/\">covered before<\/a>, in practice this means nothing. It <em>sounds<\/em> to the well-meaning audience at home like Clinton\u2019s saying she would only permit late-term abortions if they were necessary to save Mom from death or a major physical injury (even though they <a href=\"\/news\/debunking-three-common-misconceptions-on-de-abortions\/\">wouldn&#8217;t be necessary<\/a> in emergencies anyway), but in the context of abortion law \u201chealth\u201d has been defined by the Supreme Court to mean any \u201cphysical, emotional, psychological,\u201d or \u201cfamilial\u201d factor that can be construed as \u201crelevant to the wellbeing of the patient.\u201d<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/www.abortionprocedures.com\"><img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" class=\"aligncenter wp-image-88733\" src=\"https:\/\/www.liveactionnews.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/02\/levatino-ad-LAN-1.jpg\" alt=\"levatino-ad-LAN\" width=\"347\" height=\"255\" srcset=\"https:\/\/archive.liveaction.org\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/02\/levatino-ad-LAN-1.jpg 600w, https:\/\/archive.liveaction.org\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/02\/levatino-ad-LAN-1-300x221.jpg 300w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 347px) 100vw, 347px\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p>Accordingly, every time she\u2019s had the opportunity to demonstrate her alleged moderation, she\u2019s instead opposed banning late-term and even partial-birth abortion\u2026 never mind the fact that those laws contained health exceptions. It turns out that when you define health in a way the abortion industry can\u2019t manipulate to mean whatever it wants, Clinton doesn\u2019t think it\u2019s so reasonable anymore.<\/p>\n<p>Unfortunately, this discrepancy between her rhetoric and her record didn\u2019t get followed-up, either. So while it\u2019s good that Bret Baier again highlighted Hillary Clinton and Bernie Sanders\u2019s abortion positions, he didn\u2019t provide us with anything we didn\u2019t already know. We are still a long way off from the media giving pro-abortion activists\u00a0the <a href=\"\/news\/pelosi-unwittingly-reveals-pro-abortion-politicians-weakness\/\">scrutiny they deserve<\/a>.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Abortion advocates\u00a0have been complaining that the debates between Hillary Clinton and Bernie Sanders haven\u2019t devoted enough attention to abortion so far, but that changed a bit at Fox News&#8217;\u00a0Democratic presidential townhall.
