So today, Senate Democrats decided it was time to save President Obama from the inconvenience of having to veto a bill that would stop abortion after 20 weeks, because this is what Democrats do.

0:10.0

Remember that time when Democrats said safe, legal, and rare? Yeah, they were lying. Bill Clinton used to say that back in 1996. It ain't true. Safe and legal and rare is not real. Safe and legal means not rare. Why should it be

0:24.1

rare after all if it's just like an appendectomy? And the truth is that Democrats have been glorifying

0:28.3

abortion for years now. They try to claim that they don't glorify it, but they do. And the latest

0:32.5

indicator that they're glorifying abortion is this new hashtag that's trending on Twitter and

1:27.7

We're constantly using euphemisms in order to make ourselves feel better

1:30.7

about being complicit in the great evil of our time.

1:33.4
