Now, you can say that that’s okay, and Hilary can say that that’s okay, but it’s not okay with me because based on what she’s saying, and based on where she’s going, and where she’s been, you can take the baby and rip the baby out of the womb in the 9th month—on the final day—and that’s not acceptable. CLINTON Well, that is not what happens in these cases, and using that kind of, uh, scare rhetoric is just terribly unfortunate. You should meet with some of the women I’ve met with, women I’ve known over the course of my life. This is one of the worst possible choices that any woman and her family has to make, and I do not believe the government should be making it. You know, I’ve had the great honor of travelling across the world on behalf of our country. I’ve been to countries where governments either forced women to have abortions, like they do in China, or forced women to bear children, like they used to do in Romania, and I can tell you the government has no business in the decisions that women make with their families—In accordance with their faiths, with medical advice—and I will stand up for that right.
