CAL THOMAS COMMENTARY AUGUST 17, 2026
THE LIBERAL DEMOCRAT GOVERNOR OF MASSACHUSETTES, MAURA HEALEY, HAS SIGNED A BILL THAT ALLOWS FOR ABORTIONS AT ANYTIME DURING A PREGNANCY. THE MEASURE WAS OVERWHELMINGLY PASSED BY THE MOSTLY DEMOCRAT LEGISLATURE, THOUGH A FEW DEMOCRAT MEMBERS VOTED AGAINST IT.
AS USUAL, HEALEY CALLED IT “HEALTH CARE.” IT ISN’T HEALTH CARE TO KILL A BABY AT ANY TIME, ESPECIALLY WHEN AT A STAGE WHERE IT CAN SURVIVE OUTSIDE THE WOMB.
MASSACHUSETTS NOW HAS THE MOST LIBERAL ABORTION LAW IN THE COUNTRY. GOVERNOR HEALEY WAS SURROUNDED BY A LARGE GROUP OF WOMEN WHO LAUGHED AND APPLAUDED AFTER SHE SIGNED THE BILL.
HOW SICK IS THIS? IT’S EVIL, BUT IT GOES ALONG WITH OTHER INDICATIONS THAT LIFE IS NOW REGARDED AS CHEAP. WHETHER IT’S SCHOOL SHOOTINGS, OR STREET SHOOTINGS; WHETHER IT’S MURDER TRIALS THAT ATTRACT FANS OF THE MURDERER, LIKE LUIGI MANGIONE, WE HAVE MOVED FROM THE BELIEF THAT GOD IS THE AUTHOR OF LIFE AND “THOU SHALL NOT MURDER” TO AN EVOLUTIONARY WORLDVIEW THAT SAYS THERE IS NO GOD, OR YOU CAN BE YOUR OWN GOD.
WE SING “GOD BLESS AMERICA,” BUT WHY SHOULD HE, GIVEN ALL THAT WE TOLERATE AND PROMOTE, INCLUDING MODERN CHILD SACRIFICE? “AND GOD GAVE THEM OVER.” I’M CAL THOMAS.
How do they plan on ending the life of the unborn child?
What is to be done with the body?
What next, any child under the age of 5 can be “terminated?
As these women rejoice over death, how is it that they think they have the right to the gift of life?
I am old enough to remember the phrase “banned in Boston”. Sigh. Now the only ban is unborn babies?……
