Vice President Pence on Thursday suggested that the Democratic Party supported late-term abortion and "infanticide" while speaking alongside Canadian Prime Minister Justin Trudeau in Ottawa. "For President Trump, for me, for our administration, we'll always stand for the right to life."

They echoed a claim Trump made at a rally in Wisconsin last month, in which he alleged that the Democratic Party was "aggressively pushing extreme late-term abortion, allowing children to be ripped from their mother's womb."

Trudeau, who had vowed to confront Pence over America's "backsliding" on women's rights, said that he told the U.S. vice president Thursday that Canadians have concerns about the "anti-choice laws" its state lawmakers have passed. "It was a cordial conversation, but it is one on which we have very different perspectives," Trudeau said.

Trudeau has repeatedly spoken out against restrictive abortion policies. "It's a shame that we increasingly see conservative governments and conservative politicians taking away rights that have been hard-fought over many, many years by generations of women and male allies," Trudeau said.

1. Pence is as vile as Trump

[jmowreader]

2. Mr. Pence, you should have a little talk with Fearless Leader

The subject of this talk is, "how many abortions have you paid for in your life, and how does this give you any authority to be anti-abortion now?"

3. Sickening Hyperbole by Pence-Infanticide Has Always Been Illegal

4. When you're Mike Pence you're an asshole

It's what you do.

5. When tRump goes down so will Pence.

The two were a team elected by Putin so he will also be impeached or asked to resign before his own impeachment begins. Don't forget he has Russian ties too. I forget who was on the news last night, maybe it was Swallwell, but whoever it was said this and I was thrilled to hear it.

8. I doubt we would see the Repugnants agree to remove both Trump and Pence via impeachment

at the same time as that would make Pelosi the President.

6. Projecting much?

Who's the one locking kids in cages and letting them die?

7. From a guy who has collaborated in separating families and caging children

The hypocrisy of these jerks has no bounds. He needs to be impeached as well, him, the buffoon and Barr, at a minimum.

9. Infanticide is OK with republicans and they have done it.

Infanticide is OK with republicans and they have done it.

Republicans are in favor of killing living babies and have done so.

Pro-life is a myth.

The supposed pro-lifers cared naught when the state of Texas (republican gov, republican Prez) deliberately killed living baby Sun Hudson against the mother's wishes because he was an inconvenience to the state.

It is not a matter of life to the supposed pro-lifers.

It is a matter of control.

10. Someone needs to wash Pence's mouth out with some very harsh soap.

11. Fortunately, PM Trudeau is not the gullible puppet they wish he was.

I live in Washington, five miles from the Canadian border.

Because of their new nation-wide carbon tax, gasoline has become quite expensive in Canada. They purchase it by the liter and right now that factors out to about $6+ a gallon. So, at our local COSTCO gas station, we see a LOT of plates from British Columbia. I was chatting with a motorist the other day and we were discussing the national carbon tax. I was curious as BC already HAS their own carbon tax in place. The man replied, "Well our PM is an asshole." I looked at him and erupted in laughter. "Look mate, we've got trump to deal with." And he responded, "Well, yeah, there is that. I guess Justin isn't so bad, once you consider the competition."

12. Pence should watch his mouth, if he knows what's good for him. nt
