A DUBIOUS DISTINCTION

CAL THOMAS COMMENTARY FEBRUARY 2, 2022

    AMERICANS HAVE TRADITIONALLY ENJOYED BEING FIRST IN CATEGORIES THAT MATTER – MOST POWERFUL NATION ON EARTH; MOST GENEROUS WHEN IT COMES TO AIDING OTHER COUNTRIES; AND SILLY THINGS LIKE “WORLD CHAMPIONS” IN SPORTS WHEN WE ONLY PLAY ONE OTHER iIN BASEBALL AND NONE IN FOOTBALL.

    NOW COMES A DUBIOUS DISTINCTION. THE UNITED STATES IS ONE OF JUST SIX COUNTRIES IN THE WORLD THAT ALLOW ABORTION ON DEMAND THROUGH ALL NINE MONTHS OF PREGNANCY. CANADA, VIETNAM AND SOUTH KOREA, THE LATTER BEING ONE OF THE MOST CHRISTIAN COUNTRIES IN THE WORLD – ARE THE OTHERS. THIS, ACCORDING TO THE FAMILY RESEARCH COUNCIL, A CONSERVATIVE CHRISTIAN ORGANIZATION BASED IN WASHINGTON, D.C.

    MARY SZOCH, THE STUDY’S LEAD AUTHOR, SAYS “AMERICAN LAWS ON ABORTION ARE MORE ALIGNED WITH THOSE OF HUMAN RIGHTS VIOLATORS LIKE NORTH KOREA AND CHINA THAN WITH COUNTRIES THAT PROTECT THE DIGNITY OF EVERY HUMAN BEING.”

    SOMETHING TO KEEP IN MIND AS CHINA TRIES TO AIRBRUSH ITS HUMAN RIGHTS VIOLATIONS DURING THE OLYMPICS, WHICH OPEN FRIDAY IN BEIJING. AND LET’S PRAY THE SUPREME COURT WILL MAKE THE RIGHT DECISION AS IT CONSIDERS THE FUTURE OF ROE VS. WADE. I’M CAL THOMAS.
