Rep. Chris Smith holds Planned Parenthood, lawmakers, Obama admin. accountable.

By Nathan A. Cherry

Martinsburg, W.V. – Recently Congressman Chris Smith (R-NJ) addressed the U.S. House of Representatives, asking questions many Americans would enjoy answers to. In particular Smith addressed the issue of abortion and wanted to know how long the “pro-choice cover-up” would continue. Smith, a staunch pro-life supporter, pulled no punches and did not mince words as he demanded accountability from Planned Parenthood, pro-abortion lawmakers, and the Obama administration. Smith called the idea of “safe” abortion “nonsense” and stated that “women deserve better.” Read text of Smith’s address below:

“How can so many seemingly smart, sane, compassionate and accomplished people — especially in politics — support, promote and if President Obama has his way in the pending health care legislation, lavishly fund with public dollars, the violent death of unborn children and the wounding of their moms by abortion.
“How long will we permit the pro-choice cover-up and bogus safety claims to misinform, especially in light of the reams of evidence documenting serious injury to women who abort?
“Women deserve better.  They, at the very least, deserve the truth.
“Young children can readily identify the humanity of the unborn child dismembered through abortion, and instinctively realize the grave injustice of abortion with unclouded comprehension. That same realization recently seized Abby Johnson, a former Planned Parenthood abortion clinic director, when she watched ultrasound imaging of an abortion in progress of a three month old unborn child. Self described as ‘extremely pro-choice’ but now pro-life, she said she watched an unborn child ‘crumple’ before her very eyes as the infant was dismembered and vacuumed to death by a hideous suction device 20-30 times more powerful than a household vacuum cleaner.
“Tragically, never again comes too late for the approximately 52 million babies slaughtered in Planned Parenthood clinics and abortion mills throughout America since the infamous holdings of the U.S. Supreme Court in 1973.
“Abortion hurts women, physically, psychologically, and the data strongly suggests that it even mal-affects children subsequently born to women who abort.
“All of this begs a serious question. Why then is the Obama Administration expanding this vicious assault on women and children — often by massively subsidizing pro-abortion non-governmental organizations (NGOs) to do the dirty work — in the United States, Africa, Latin America, everywhere.
 “Maybe some politicians aren’t so smart, sane, or compassionate after all.” (A fuller text of Rep. Smith’s address, as carried by Lifesitenews.com, can be read here.)

In stating that “Abortion hurts women, physically, psychologically, and the data strongly suggests that it even mal-affects children subsequently born to women who abort.” Smith went on to cite a number of published studies linking mental illness, depression, suicidal thoughts, and breast cancer with women who have had abortions. The Lifesitenews.com article quotes Smith:

“While Americans know that ‘prematurity and low birth weight are leading causes of disabilities in children,’ Smith pointed to 113 studies that showed one abortion raises the risk of preterm birth by 36 percent, and increases to ‘a staggering 93 percent after two or more abortions.’”

The atrocity of abortion is undeniable. The harmful effects to women and subsequent children are undeniable. The rejection of sound health care and protection of women’s health and well-being by the abortion industry is undeniable. The time to protect the unborn from the fate of 52 million murdered by abortion is now!
