Jindal: In Abortion, The 'Patient' Is The 'Unborn Baby,' Not The Woman

This clown needs to go back to doing what he does best - creepily obsessing over Brady Bunch characters:



In an interview with Iowa-based talk radio host Steve Deace on Friday, Louisiana Gov. Bobby Jindal discussed adeceptively edited video made by a right-wing group that falsely claims that Planned Parenthood is “selling aborted baby parts.”

Jindal, who reacted to the phony scandal by launching an investigation into Planned Parenthood in his state, repeated his call to defund the organization, saying that it’s not a health care organization because when a woman receives an abortion she is not a “patient.”

“They try to defend themselves by saying this is health care and patient-centered,” he said. “This is not health care. Abortions are not health care, and this is not about the patient. The patient in this case is that unborn baby. They’ve got no concern for the unborn baby, and you can see that in the video.”

Jindal also dismissed the famous Bill Clinton phrase calling for abortion to be "safe, legal and rare," saying, "Well, it's never safe for the baby, first of all."

It's like they can't even talk about the fact that there is a woman who gets an abortion or gives birth. I remember seeing comments about Savita Halappanavar, and it seemed that for them the REAL tragedy was that they HAD to say something about her death after being denied an abortion that would have probably saved her life.
