Michigan Catholic Conference Blasts Tyrant Whitmer

At least the Bishops of Michigan called Whitmer out on her amazingly stupid comment that murdering the unborn is 'life sustaining'.

 From The American Catholic

 By Donald R. McClarey

Hattip to commenter Greg Mockeridge:
The April 19 statement came in response to an appearance by the governor on a CNN podcast in which she was asked why she had exempted abortion clinics from her executive order shutting down all Michigan businesses and operations “that are not necessary to sustain or protect life.”
In response, Governor Whitmer made the remarkable assertion abortion is “life sustaining.”
“A woman’s healthcare, her whole future, her ability to decide if and when she starts a family is not an election, it is a fundamental to her life,” she said.
The Michigan Catholic Conference (MCC), whose chairman is Detroit Archbishop Allen Vigneron, responded that the governor’s understanding of life issues has become “bifurcated and confusing.”
“Governor Whitmer’s comment that abortion is ‘life-sustaining’ comes as no surprise; for most if not all of her political career the governor has carried the banner for abortion on demand through all nine months of pregnancy,” the statement declared. “Her comments indicate how easily candidates for higher office are pushed into a dark corner by the abortion industry. Joe Biden’s abdication of his forty-year support for the Hyde Amendment no doubt paved the way.”
The MCC statement also underscored the irony that the governor has allowed an activity that kills human beings while outlawing the purchase of seeds and gardening tools that truly sustain life.
The governor “insists that elective abortions continue, as she believes the procedure ‘sustains life,’” the statement reads. “The logic is removed from reality: night is not day; war is not peace.”
“How can Governor Whitmer on the one hand prohibit medical surgeries and the growth of food through gardening yet refer to a procedure that intentionally destroys a developing human person as ‘life sustaining?’” the statement asks.
“We call on Governor Whitmer to pause and reflect on the wounds her comments have created for countless people in this state and elsewhere,” the MCC said.

    This women is absolutely greedy! What kind of heart does she have that she smiles for a statement that advocates for the genoside of babies particularly for the black communities and for the lack of personal responsibilty of men and women. She is not fit for governing her own household let alone a country!
