(Video) ‘That Child Has Value!’: Senator Gives Emotional Speech on Abortion
He’s got a 100 percent voting record from National Right to Life, CitizenLink, and Gary Bauer’s Campaign for Working Families. But it’s obvious Sen. James Lankford’s commitment to the unborn goes far beyond paper – it’s a matter of the heart. The Oklahoma Republican teared up on the Senate floor on Thursday while discussing the undercover video showing a Planned Parenthood official casually discussing the sale of aborted babies’ organs and tissue. The woman, Dr. Deborah Nucatola described, in his words, how she “would be careful to reach in and actually crush the head of the child to kill the child in the womb, so they could preserve the rest of the organs – because the kidney has value, because the liver has value, because the lungs have value, because the muscles in the legs have value.” “I would tell you, that child has value,” he said. “That’s a human being we’re talking about.” His was the second heartrending speech on the topic. Rep. Martha Roby, R-AL, gave a stirring speech on the House floor on Tuesday. Watch – and share – both affecting videos.
