Breakfast Scramble (Friday)

Grizzly Gosnell, massacre in Pennsylvania, where are the calls to ban high capacity assault scissors?  Where is the Pennsylvania Department of Health berated for promoting a climate of hate?  Why has not Barack Obama been made to account for his legislative support for infanticice:

PHILADELPHIA (AP) — A doctor accused of running a filthy “abortion mill” for decades in an impoverished Philadelphia neighborhood delivered babies alive, killed them with scissors and allowed a woman who had survived 20 years in a refugee camp to be overmedicated and die at his clinic, prosecutors said.

Dr. Kermit Gosnell, 69, was charged Wednesday with eight counts of murder for the deaths of seven babies and one patient. Nine employees also were charged, including four with murder

[…]

Gosnell typically worked weeknights, arriving hours after his unskilled staff administered anesthesia and drugs to induce labor. He then “forced the live birth of viable babies in the sixth, seventh, eighth month of pregnancy and then killed those babies by cutting into the back of the neck with scissors and severing their spinal cord,” Williams said.

Dumbo gets the race card,  Rick Santorum plays the race card on Dumbo, b/k/a Barack Obama, and some liberals are pissed, from Garance Franke-Ruta, Atlantic:

Former Pennsylvania senator Rick Santorum, who is considering a bid for the 2012 GOP presidential nomination, invoked President Obama’s race during an interview with the conservative CNS News network show “Online with Terry Jeffrey” as a reason the president should oppose abortion.

“The question is — and this is what Barack Obama didn’t want to answer — is that human life a person under the Constitution? And Barack Obama says no,” Santorum said in the interview, which was posted online Wednesday. “Well if that person, human life is not a person, then, I find it almost remarkable for a black man to say, ‘we are going to decide who are people and who are not people.'”

Franke-Ruta clearly does not think much of unborn human life.  Let Ruta remember this, humanity is a gift from God.  Just as Chief Justice Roger Taney could not make the Negro any less human, then neither can Justice Harry Blackmun make an unborn human being any less human.  For humanity is not a gift from the Supreme Court but rather from God.  Santorum sees it.  Ruta refuses.

Is Taylor Marsh just a dumb white woman? From Ms Marsh:

The question needs to be asked just why women were resorting to going to Kermit Goswell? For the same reason women rose up to make abortion legal and safe, but also affordable and accessible. People like Rick Santorum and others who rail against women’s freedoms, but also the murder of Dr. Tiller, has caused an atmosphere of fear to develop around women’s reproductive health issues, which even had an impact on the Democratic health care bill recently passed.

Where I and Gosnell (and likely Santorum) agree is that the value of a human being does not change by his mere passage through his mother’s birth canal.    Of  courses, Gosnell  sees him merely as a product to be butchered for profit.   Whereas Ms Marsh, seems to think something magical happens in that short journey.   Well maybe some miraculous did happen prior to birth, about nine months prior.
