Seeking To Clarify Post-Roe Landscape, Sen. Scott Asks, “When Do You Believe Life Begins?”
U.S. Sen.
Rick Scott took on the pro-abortion activists clamoring about the seemingly pending doom of Roe v. Wade. Scott appeared to take a page from the book of the “What is a woman?” activists challenging gender ideology.
Writing in The Wall Street Journal earlier this week,
Scott asked of Democrats, “When do you believe life begins?”
The Florida Republican noted that the GOP position on abortion is that life begins at conception, a conclusion” grounded in faith and values, but also in science.”
While Democrats and other pro-abortion activists recently have claimed that as many as two-thirds of Americans want Roe to remain intact, Scott countered that other polls show 73 percent of voters “agree that an unborn baby is a human being.”
“So that raises the question: When do Democrats believe life begins? At conception? At viability? At birth? After birth?” Scott asked.
The answer: “They won’t say.”
“Even more disconcerting,” the senator added, “reporters won’t ask them.”
“It’s a dereliction of duty by the mainstream media not to push the question, and it’s an abdication of their responsibility to inform the American people and spur legitimate debate,” Scott continued. “Democrats have come out as the abortion extremists we’ve always known they are. They’ve staked out a position that is simply outside the mainstream of where average American voters are.”
That position includes advocating for the protection of
legalized abortion up until after the “moment of birth,” Scott wrote.
