One would think this would be easy: if a baby is born alive, including during an abortion, attempts would have to be made to save the child. But, the abortion on demand sect is so deranged that they cannot even approve of something so simple. Here’s NC blogger Sister Toldjah on the subject
Democrat Governor Roy Cooper Sides With The Abortion Lobby, Vetoes NC ‘Born Alive’ Bill
As predicted, North Carolina Gov. Roy Cooper (D) today has vetoedNC’s proposed Born Alive bill:
Gov. Roy Cooper on Thursday vetoed legislation that would have required doctors to provide the same care to an infant that survives an abortion as they give any other newborn.
“Laws already protect newborn babies, and this bill is an unnecessary interference between doctors and their patients,†Cooper said in his veto statement. “This needless legislation would criminalize doctors and other health care providers for a practice that simply does not exist.â€
Except, as she notes
There is no law on NC's books that would punish a doctor who withholds care from a baby born alive after an abortion which is why this "fact check" doesn't identify one. @PolitiFactNC has become a pathetic lie factory that pumps out @NCDemParty talking points. #NCGA #NCPOL https://t.co/kFb3Cu2iXW

She also questions the timing
As I noted last week, Cooper is beholden to the abortion lobby and the extreme left in this state, so it wasn’t shocking that he vetoed the bill. But there is the question of the timing of Cooper’s veto. The bill passed two days ago, and he performed his veto just this morning. Alexandra DeSanctis speculates as to why.
Cooper literally vetoed it while the Mueller report was being released. Perhaps he didn’t want this to actually be news? How insane do you have to be to veto a bill that protects a baby born alive, requiring medical care for it? I typically avoid discussing abortion beyond a policy position, not getting into the morality of it, but, this is sick. Abortionistas keep telling us they aren’t for abortion, that they want it safe and rare, yet, they are against every single restriction on abortion, including late term abortions, medical standards and inspections for abortion facilities, and saving those born alive.
It is very disappointing that in modern times and in a supposedly civilized nation a simple law to protect babies born alive during abortions would even be necessary let alone “vetoed” by a governor. Once the baby is born it is it’s own person. Why are leftists more interested in the rights of aliens than babies? Because although they ridicule and make fun of “The Slippery Slope Theory” they realize it works since they use it all the time. Think “All we want is for homosexuals to have equal rights” then thing just a few years later at Same Sex Marriage.
They believe that by saying it is illegal to murder a just born baby resulting from an abortion they jeopardize the entire cult of death the abortion industry is built upon. By their success in jamming a bunch of crap down the ignorant masses throats for so long they are exactly correct.
It’s the same philosophy behind the fact that they’ll be after Trump even after he’s out of office. In fact, somewhere in Berkeley California is a new born baby who is the grand parent to the student who will tear down the Trump statue in some park somewhere in 2119.
They never quit that’s why they always win and that’s why the only time they lose is when we make war on them. Like they say: “You can vote your way into socialism but you gotta shoot your way out”.
It is already against the law to kill babies. Most late term abortions result from health issues endangering the mother or fetal malformations. Would you jail a mother and doctor for letting her anencephalic baby die peacefully and comfortably rather than using heroic, ICU methods to prolong the baby’s “life” a few days?
The increasingly violent Kye types: “You can vote your way into socialism but you gotta shoot your way outâ€.
What level of socialism triggers your “shoot your way out” response?
Public schools? Universal healthcare? Voting rights act? Federal minimum wage? Social Security? Guaranteed jobs? Abortion rights? Interstate highways? Disability payments? Clean Air Act?
What passed bill will prompt you to take up arms against your country?
