To the Editor:

Now Democrats have once again dredged up the fabricated notion that Republicans are waging a war on women. That claim is as old and worn as Hillary Clinton, the leading Democrat candidate for President.

What we do have is a war on babies that is strongly supported by Democrat leaders. As soon as the Planned Parenthood baby parts sale was revealed, Democrat leaders such as Hillary Clinton, Elizabeth Warren, Nancy Pelosi, Debbie Wasserman and Harry Reid and most Democrats throughout the country jumped in to support Planned Parenthood funding by taxpayers.

Republican leaders, including every presidential candidate on the debate stage on Aug. 6, call for the defunding of Planned Parenthood, the leading abortion mill in the U.S., and for diverting those funds to clinics that are truly providing health services to women.

In defense of their position, abortion supporters say a fetus has no personhood … I guess that means abortion does not murder a human life. But then, why are the aborted baby parts and even the little cadavers suitable for human scientific research? Something about that does not compute.

Abortion, the war on babies, is a dark and troubling practice in our society. That practice becomes barbaric when harvesting baby parts for sale is a byproduct of what is purported to be a women’s right to control her body. Do those who have abortions even know what happens to the body of life taken from them? Republican leaders who support withholding taxpayer funds from Planned Parenthood are on the right side of this issue.
