On Monday, leftist Samantha Bee of Full Frontal will host an interview with Barack Obama, and the meeting should be a congenial, since Bee’s knee-jerk leftism matches Obama’s own proclivities.
For example, Bee is a hard-core abortion supporter, as evidenced most clearly only this past Monday, when she insisted, “partial-birth abortions aren’t a thing! It’s a non-medical term the National Right to Life Committee made up in the 90s for a procedure that was outlawed in 2003 by the Partial-Birth Abortion Ban Act…Chris Wallace conflated partial-birth abortion, which doesn’t exist, with late-term abortion, which does—rarely.”
As Frank Camp of The Daily Wire explained as he methodically eviscerated Bee’s positions one by one:
Yes, the term “partial-birth abortion” is not the medical term for the practice to which Bee is referring. The medical term for such an abortion is “intact dilation and extraction,” or “intact D&X.” However, during an intact D&X the infant is indeed partially-birthed.
As is well-known, Obama advocated against banning partial-birth abortion in 2007.
Bee has had some nasty things to say about GOP leaders, including Ted Cruz, whom she described after his win in the Iowa caucuses this way: “Iowans chose this fist-faced, horse-s—t salesman Ted Cruz as their new prized heifer.”
As Obama has attacked religious Christians and Jews as far back as 2006, Bee has said some pretty nasty things about Catholicism, including admitting in a June 2010 interview on NPR that it was “joyful” and a “pure pleasure” to mock the Catholic Church.
