UPDATE: Published by the Columbian on 8/28/2015.
On August 10, 2015, posting on Washington state Republican Rep. Liz Pike's Facebook, Democrat State Rep. Jim Moeller attacked “all Republicans who insist on banning abortions because it 'kills innocent humans'” as arrogant, ignorant hypocrites for "smugly oppos[ing] ... safety regulations, gun control, raising the minimum wage, and the ACA." Moeller's meme claimed opposition to these policies also "kills innocent humans".
Moeller claimed he didn't agree with the meme yet, on August 2, he posted a similar attack in an the comments of an article on the Columbian website: "Yep. Let's talk about abortion and Planned Parenthood while we cut the poor off." He gave TANF (welfare), SNAP (food) funding, and attempts to repeal Obamacare (ACA) as examples of Republicans’ "bait and switch" tactics.
Further, Moeller fails his own standard because while he supports policies that he claims helps the innocent, he supports abortion, which kills an innocent, defenseless human being.
Under what circumstance is it ever justified to kill an innocent human being?
If Moeller really believes his claim that opposition to programs for the poor is a greater evil than abortion then I challenge him to post an aborted fetus image to his Facebook and Twitter profiles and to his website for 30 consecutive days.
That would meet his July 10 Facebook status that “accountability and transparency are … needed in government at all levels”.
He won’t because that type of transparency would reveal to everyone the truly barbaric view that Moeller actually holds.
