Bachmann on Gosnell: ‘Mainstream Media”Failed to Cover this Horrific Violence Against Women’

By: American Decency Staff

 

“It’s very hard for me to imagine, Mr. Speaker, that a doctor in this country—a doctor who took an oath to do no harm—would, in fact, kill a woman at his abortion clinic and he would sever the heads off of four babies that were born alive and potentially others, and commit one gruesome act after another and shamelessly the mainstream media has all but gone silent and failed to cover this horrific violence against women,” she said.  “No one—Democrat or Republican—believes in violence against women, we abhor it.”

“But there’s nothing that comes close to what’s happened in this abortion clinic in Pennsylvania,” Bachmann continued.  “And the officials in Pennsylvania in the State Department unfortunately, it appears, willfully ignored this heinous crime and also it appears that this has been ignored now across our nation.”

“Well, we won’t,” she said.  “And I thank God for the men who stood up here today to stand for women and against violence against women."
