Please Tell Me, Hillary: Do You Support Late-Term Abortion Exceptions for ALL Doomed Pregnancies?

Dear Hillary,

I recently published a diary, [Daily Kos] Hillary Clinton, the Feminist who is Open to Taking Choice out of "Pro-Choice." It tells the story of Taylor Mahaffey, a woman denied modern medical care by doctors who were in tears; their hands were tied by late-term abortion “pregnancy” regulations (as you now call them) in the state of Texas. The article also tells my own story: a woman who discovered after 20 weeks that my fetus would not survive due to severe fetal anomalies. If late-term “pregnancy” regulations had been in effect in my state, I too might have suffered like Taylor, [Daily Kos] a woman forced to continue a doomed pregnancy against her will and against the advice of her doctors. That possibility still haunts me today. I speak out now in an attempt to prevent future women from suffering. How can I live with myself if I do not?

they are nothing but a gang of criminals.

Does this make any sense?

During the two and a half months that followed the February 11th lows, the stock market took a near vertical escalator upward, adding trillions of dollars in paper wealth and coming within 3% of the all-time highs.
You would think that everyone was bullish on the economy and the companies that issue these equities, but you would be wrong.

Hillary Clinton, Dec. 31, 2012: 'The best way to help Israel deal with Iran's growing nuclear capability is to ... overthrow the regime [in Syria] of Bashar Assad.'

I missed this two months ago, but it's worth repeating even if some of you previously came across it.
