Nancy Pelosi says the GOP has declared a “war on women.” No, that’s ridiculous. We’ve declared a kinetic defunding action.
But that’s rich, isn’t it? The people who are literally slaughtering human beings in the womb say that not receiving federal funding for their slaughter is a declaration of war.
The Politico reports:
There is “a war on women,” House Minority Leader Nancy Pelosi says, and it’s being led by her own colleagues on the other side of the aisle in Congress.
“There is actually a war on women,” the California Democrat said Thursday in Washington, taking aim at House Republicans’ efforts to defund Planned Parenthood and restrict access to abortions, among other measures.
“Abortion is one issue, but contraception and family planning and birth control are opposed by this crowd too,” the first female speaker of the House said of Republicans at the Feminist Majority Foundation’s Women, Money and Power Summit, CNN reported.
Gotta’ love Nancy at the Money and Power Summit. Could it be more aptly named?

That why Nancy gets paid 30 pieces of silver – to spin falsehood into a victimhood moment.

I wondered why the USCCB had been silent the past couple weeks on this. Unless I am reading this wrong, they are apposed to the House budget as well for reasons other than the life issue:

"Money and Power Summit" Why don't they just call it the "Legion of Doom"?
BTW…I'm so sick of NP presuming that she speaks on behalf of all women. She doesn't speak for me. SHE'S the one who keeps declaring war on women.

In the words of Jack Ames of Defend Life: "Half of all persons aborted are women". There is a "war on women", but not only on women, but on virginity, innocence and sovereign personhood, all human beings begotten by the will of God, our Creator. The Sacrament of Matrimony between a man and a women with God at the center needs no condoms, pills or contraception. The grace of God is sufficient. The Judicial branch of our government dispenses the truth of God. The truth of God cannot be priced as a commodity. (Even the Justices of the Supreme Court for the United States of America, addressed as "Justice" and "Your Honor", are given COMPENSATION rather than a salary or pay.) Tax dollars belong to the taxpayer even while being administered by the administration AND MAY NOT BE PAY OR FUND THE Judicial decree of Roe v. Wade, the inJustice, the miscarriage of Justice, called "abortion" with its corollaries, contraception and sterilization. Call it what you will, “women’s healthcare, women’s emancipation, sexual freedom” the Supreme Court must proclaim the Truth, the whole Truth and nothing but the Truth or be found guilty of perjury.

I thought there was a war against the unborn child.
To think that a child fights the most dangerous battle of his life in the first weeks of his existence, with a great risk of being killed by his own mother, says it all about the shape of modern Western civilisation.
