Article quotes Virginia’s Democratic Governor Ralph Northam as stating that an unwanted child that has already been delivered should be cared for only “if that’s what the mother and family desired.”

Article quotes Gov. Ralph Northam "will push for the Democratic-controlled General Assembly to legalize recreational marijuana during the upcoming legislative session, which would make it the first state in the South to do so."

Pretty soon, with all his restrictions, that will be all there will be to do... Stay at home and smoke dope!

This year has definitely shown us who is with us and who is fighting against us. I've never in my life seen so many people come out openly and denounce God and righteousness either verbally or with their actions.

Ever notice how in articles like the one in the OP they never seem to use the entire quote of the person they're talking about? Or even post a link for people to be able to see it for themselves? Just for a slightly more...honest view of the subject under discussion:
Meme Misquotes Virginia Governor on Abortion Bill - FactCheck.org
“When we talk about third trimester abortions … it’s done in cases where there may be severe deformities, there may be a fetus that is non-viable,” Northam said. “If a mother is in labor, I can tell you exactly what would happen. The infant would be delivered. The infant would be kept comfortable. The infant would be resuscitated if that’s what the mother and the family desired, and then a discussion would ensue between the physicians and the mother.”
Agree or disagree with him you should at least be honest and fair when you quote him.

It was an interview (leftwing) with Northam, and I actually heard the whole thing.

He was discussing a child born alive after a failed abortion attempt, and how providing life saving care or denying it, was a private decision between the physician and the mother...

He spoke quite casually about infanticide, which is actually illegal because lifesaving care is legally required at that point. It should make any sane person sick.

The full quote is more demonic than the excerpt.

I understand that, my point wasn't "is he right or wrong?" my point was "did they give the context and supply a link to the interview so people could see for themselves what he said?". I tend to find having all the facts is better than cherry picking portions of something that's said. :wave:

Come on now. Cherry picking is what we All do. As in you included, would you not agree?

But more honest than the link in the OP was.
tulc(which was his point)

The OP was not intending what you are implying, and should be commended by you for charitably blunting the deeper evil revealed in the full quote.

Uhmm...than why not supply a link to the source of the quote rather than just posting a snippet of it?

I tend to not be impressed by people who try to decide what everyone should or shouldn't see about a subject. Usually it ends up they aren't telling the whole truth about something. :sigh:
tulc(just thought that should be pointed out)

Tulk would not cherry pick anymore than I would never be sarcastic.
Well, we all tend to fail some times, but on the whole I really do try and supply as much information as I can when I bring something up. I've seen way too many "LOOK HOW BAD THEY ARE!!" threads to not at least try and avoid those sorts of things. And yes, I'm aware I can be...annoying sometimes (okay, okay...LOTS of times) about this sort of thing but my goal is still that there be enough information on something so people can have an informed idea on a subject.

I'm guilty. I'm as flawed (probably more) as everyone else.

So should you: (Listen to his exact words in the link)

"In an interview with WTOP the day after that hearing, Northam was asked to explain Tran’s comment and his own support for the bill. Here’s what he said in his exact words:

When we talk about third-trimester abortions, these are done with the consent of obviously the mother, with the consent of the physician — more than one physician, by the way — and it’s done in cases where there may be severe deformities. There may be a fetus that’s non-viable.
In this particular example,
If a mother is in labor, I can tell you exactly what would happen. The infant would be delivered. The infant would be kept comfortable. The infant would be resuscitated if that’s what the mother and the family desired, and then a discussion would ensue between the physicians and the mother."

So...there "may be" severe deformities and the parents don't want the baby. Or, the obvious corollary that is permissible here: There may NOT be deformities or lack of viability.
