While much of the country (as well as its media) has been focused on the shoes of Wendy Davis, we’re thrilled that Texas Sen. Bob Deuell has put the focus back where it belongs.
Here’s a Twitter exchange between Katie Pavlich and a HuffPo writer who sent the above tweet:
OMG – two weeks ago pro-aborts were touting hangers! @jbendery

@KatiePavlich The difference between the two? Baby sneakers are a prop while hangers could actually be what women turn to (again).

And the sneakers could actually be what a child wears someday @jbendery

Exactly. If the arguments of so-called pro-choicers like Bendery collapse under the weight of a tiny shoe, what does it say about the strength of those arguments? While it may be easier and less emotionally exhausting to pretend otherwise, the lives snuffed out by abortion are real.
Also at the hearing:
A baby is crying in this TX Senate hearing on abortion while a woman testifies about fetal pain. TOO MUCH.

When it comes to the truth and the sanctity of life, there is no such thing as too much.
