Following the release of the third video put out by the Center for Medical Progress, Fox News’ Megyn Kelly invited presidential candidate Dr. Ben Carson onto the Kelly File to discuss the scandal. He is not the first presidential candidate to speak out against the actions of Planned Parenthood, but his message is successful because he is succinct and logical, calling out the other side for their extremism. Carson’s message also resonates because he speaks from his experience – drawing on encounters he has had as a medical doctor.
Carson explained:
We’re gradually giving away more and more of the morals and values that made us into a great nation—for the sake of political correctness. I have a hard time believing that a lot of Democrats and progressives can look at this and say ‘Ho, Hum; it’s just a clump of cells.’
And interestingly enough, that’s the excuse that they give for abortion—that it’s a clump of cells, that it’s not a human being. If it’s not a human being then why are you harvesting organs from it?
Marjorie Dannenfelser is the president of the Susan B. Anthony List, a national pro-life organization dedicated to electing leaders and advancing legislation to reduce and ultimately end abortion.
