Todd Rokita manages to cede the moral high ground to an abortion doctor. I guess he’s better than Diego Morales, though.
This is not a matter of “the lesser of two evils.” Todd and Diego are equals in terms of their personal ethics and integrity.
But Todd hasn’t committed a felony that we know of … yet.
Rokita always shows us that he is on office for click bait. He is an embarrassment to Indiana.
+1
Can you imagine if he spent as much time helping the people of Indiana as he does on setting up his future political campaigns?
Why is this doctor still in the lucrative business of killing unborn children?
Easy, DH; because too many people in our culture are too stupid and short-sighted to realize that a culture cannot be expected to long survive the wholesale, intentional slaughter of entire generations of people.
Because abortion will always be medically necessary sometimes. Especially late term abortions, the vast majority of which are unfortunately needed to be done on women who very much wanted to have a baby and are now having to get an abortion for medical reasons.
I mean, if what you’re saying is that you’d rather women die or be sentenced to never being able to have children because they have an ectopic pregnancy, just be clear about it. And make sure you remind us how pro-life you are, too.
Joe, ectopic pregnancies have nothing to do with abortion, stop spreading distribution.
There is never a medical indication for late term abortion or infanticide.
This is not a sham investigation. Why was a 10 year old who lives in Ohio, brought to Indiana for an abortion? And since she’s a minor child, was this rape reported in the state of Ohio? This was a crime committed by an adult perp. I think there are many questions here that need to be answered, so the investigation is warranted.
Gloria, this investigation is not about the act of rape in Ohio (Rokita has no legal jurisdiction there). Allegedly it is about the physician who performed the legal abortion in Indiana and who, by all public evidence, complied with all state and local laws. Knowing this should make you wonder what Rokita’s motive is to pursue any investigation at all.
Brent B, you did not answer any of my questions. Why did this child’s mother bring her to INDIANA for an abortion? The state of Ohio has legal abortions up to the 26th week. And was this rape reported, since this child was only 10 YEARS OLD? It looks to me like the mother wanted to keep this on the down-low, and leaving the state of Ohio was a better plan to keep everything anonymous. Aren’t you the least bit curious about any of this?
Ohio has a heartbeat law with no exceptions for rape and incest. They passed it after Roe was overturned. The Ohio Legislative Services Agency confirmed that, while the law does have a provision for the health of the mother, there’s nothing in the law that says a 10 year being pregnant meets that threshold. (If Ohio legislators wanted a rape and incest exclusion, they should have put it in the law.)
The rape was reported both in Ohio (where the rapist was arrested) and in Indiana by Dr. Bernard, as required by Indiana state law. The mother was, indeed, an interesting individual … which is inconsequential to the matter at hand.
Gloria, aren’t you the least bit curious as to how you can be so uninformed about something that got so much press? Doesn’t that make you curious about what else you might be totally wrong about?
AG is shameful and disgusting. But that’s old new. But is he criminal? Being dastardly is nasty and unbecoming of the office. But misusing the AG office for personal vendettas should be investigated.
