Nancy Pelosi Crushes Reporter’s ‘Ideological’ Parenthood Question: I Know More Than You

After being confronted by a loaded Planned Parenthood question during her weekly presser, Nancy Pelosi brought the hammer down on a conservative reporter’s inquiry about the precise moment human life begins.

Planned Parenthood has been under intense scrutiny this week, with president Cecile Richards having appeared before Congress and the media to defend it from the controversial videos that have raised objections to its practices.

CNS News’ Sam Dorman attempted to grill Pelosi for her past defense of the organization, by asking, “is an unborn baby with a human heart and a human liver a human being?”

The House Minority Leader immediately started to smack the question down, stating that it was ideologically-baited, and has, “no basis in what public policy is”. Dorman continued to press her, but Pelosi continued to turn up the heat. She dug in, saying, “I want to say something to you. I don’t know who you are… but I am a devout, practicing Catholic”.

Pelosi continued, “I think I know more about this subject than you, with all due respect, and I do not intend to respond to your questions”.
