Ms. Snow was asked why she didn’t support simply transporting a breathing, moving infant to a hospital where he or she would have the best chance of survival. Snow developed a sudden concern for ambulance convenience: “Those situations where it is in a rural health-care setting, the hospital is 45 minutes or an hour away, that’s the closest trauma center or emergency room. You know there’s just some logistical issues involved that we have some concerns about.” Really? Logistical concerns?
So if a baby is brought to a rural clinic suffering from, say, meningitis, and the nearest trauma center is 45 minutes away, does Planned Parenthood have “concerns” about the “logistical issues” involved? Or does Planned Parenthood stand for the principle that when a woman chooses abortion, she is entitled to a dead baby?…
Some day, our descendants will look back at this and ask how we could have tamely accepted such barbarism. A special obloquy will attach to the Orwellians who call it compassion.
