On February 18, 2011 on the floor of the House, Rep. Chris Smith, R-N.J., read a graphic description of a dilation and evacuation abortion, which is done in the second trimester of a pregnancy. He said the doctor "literally hacks that baby to death."

That's all he did. He made no judgment. No accusation. He just read the truth about the procedure. And this gave Democratic Rep. Jackie Speier of California rise to speak angrily off the top of her head in rebuttal of simply reading the truth about the procedure of abortion...

 -

The 60 year old Congresswoman then discussed her own experience that took place in the early 1990s. "That procedure that you just talked about was a procedure that I endured," she said. "I lost the baby."


Notice, in her own words, it is a baby, not a fetus, not a blob of pre-human organic material, but a baby.


She continued in her anger to say, "But for you to stand on this floor and to suggest as you have that somehow this is a procedure that is either welcomed or done cavalierly or done without any thought is preposterous."


This is the crux of the matter. A man or woman who dares brave the turbulent waters of this subject to state the obvious and point out the utter hypocrisy of people on whether it should or should not be legal (at the cost of the human lives of millions of babies who were refused the chance to be born) is confronted with the hate of Satan through those who have almost murderous rage to keep abortion legal... or the vengeful rage of those who took their own children's lives and cannot live it down...


No one had the courage to come to the defense of Chris Smith or to the truth about abortion. And as it later turns out, the Rep from California later explained in ca follow up press release...


"The fetus slipped from my uterus into my [womb entrance canal] and could not survive," Speier said. "Today some news reports are implying that I wanted my pregnancy to end, but that is simply not true. I lost my baby."


Representative Chris Smith was not speaking about this kind of medical procedure where the baby had no chance to survive. He was speaking about abortion in general. So the Congresswoman spoke out of turn and had no qualm with her colleague or the topic of his speech.


She was venting her own grief and possibly guilt (having no details here about her specific case) over the possibility of her child being viable enough to have survived in an incubator... IMHO...


And the media ran with it and the cowardice of all who should have defended Smith and chided Speier... but said nothing... the feminist lobby is too powerful.


That's the American dilemma. Complacency and cowardice. This nation was forged by the people who risked everything to evangelize this continent and to abide by Christian principles and the rule of law. Now we have people who from all their fear of losing everything have lost almost everything anyway.


And when someone dares stand in the gap for the silent screams of babies torn from their mother's wombs for convenience in 99% of the abortions performed... and they receive no support at all from anyone... it tells the world that judgment has already begun in this nation.


Speier unwittingly set a precedent from the House floor but I doubt anyone will have the courage to pursue it. On the House floor she called [it] her baby. And press released [in so many words] that it was wanted and thus a baby to her.

Ladies and gentlemen, the legal definition of life and the ability to remain alive rather than to be destroyed as so much unwanted garbage hangs in the balance. Even in the matters of a woman and the control of her own body, as it were, having the ability to legally determine whether or not another human being should live based on their desire for them to is the most flimsy of excuses for human rights and it devalues all human rights.

What human rights to the unborn have?

I wonder if the Congresswoman thought her feelings through to a logical conclusion that this is the same path that genocidal maniacs throughout history were on... the fact that she is upset / angered / emotional tells me she would be sickened to realize this.

This is why abortionists fight so hard to keep women in the dark about what abortion is and how it is performed. Thy do not want disclosure because it would put the majority of abortionists out of business. The women would realize the fetus IS their baby. And that abortion is murder... of THEIR baby.

But none have the courage to right these wrongs or even speak of them much or defend them. And the silent screams go on.

I pray for Speier that the silent screams that haunt her cease. But that in the memory of her baby she takes up the cause of ending abortion and the silent screams of other aborted babies and the haunting of other mother's with empty arms and a great hole in their hearts.
