True to form, Obama wants to add yet another pro-abortion demon to his administration. Dawn Johnsen, nominee to head the White House Office of Legal Counsel, is professor of Constitutional law and currently on the faculty at Maurer School of Law at Indiana University in Bloomington, Indiana.Her resume includes working for NARAL from 1988 to 1993.
In an article from TownHall.com , Steve King writes,
"Johnsen has condemned virtually every type of regulation of abortion conceived by a legislature and espoused a passionate pro-choice agenda throughout her career.
Her public records are dominated by pro-abortion rhetoric and criticisms of the pro-life movement."
The same article has this from Johnsen regarding abortion,
“The experience is no longer traumatic; the response of most women to the experience is relief.”
The Susan B. Anthony List gives Dawn Johnsen's Top 3 Outrageous Abortion Quotes:
1. “The argument that women who become pregnant have in some sense consented to the pregnancy belies reality…and others who are the inevitable losers in the contraceptive lottery no more ‘consent’ to pregnancy than pedestrians ‘consent’ to being struck by drunk drivers.’”
Supreme Court amicus brief she authored in Webster v. Reproductive Health Services
2. “The woman is constantly aware for nine months that her body is not wholly her own: the state has conscripted her body for its own ends. Thus, abortion restrictions ‘reduce pregnant women to no more than fetal containers.’”
Supreme Court amicus brief she authored in Webster v. Reproductive Health Services
3. “Statutes that curtail her abortion choice are disturbingly suggestive of involuntary servitude, prohibited by the Thirteenth Amendment, in that forced pregnancy requires a woman to provide continuous physical service to the fetus in order to further the state’s asserted interest.”
Supreme Court amicus brief she authored in Webster v. Reproductive Health Services
