Last night’s Republican presidential debate didn’t touch on pro-life issues much, in part because most of the Republican candidates share a similar pro-life position opposing abortion and funding for Planned Parenthood. But, when it did, pro-life businesswoman Carly Fiorina had one of the most memorable lines of the night.
Her response to a question on the abortion giant had social media buzzing and pro-life leaders giving each other high-fives.
“I dare Hillary Clinton, Barack Obama to watch these tapes,” Fiorina said, referencing the 10 undercover videos that showed how Planned Parenthood sells aborted babies and their body parts.
She continued: “Watch a fully formed fetus on the table, its heart beating, its legs kicking, while someone says we have to keep it alive to harvest its brain. This is about the character of our nation, and if we will not stand up in and force President Obama to veto this bill, shame on us.”

The response to the comment drew universal praise.
Henry Olsen, senior fellow at the Ethics and Public Policy Center, said on Twitter: “Carly just gave the best statement on pro-life from a GOP Prez contender since Reagan.”

Marjorie Dannenfelser, president of the pro-life Susan B. Anthony List, posted a video of the comments and said pro-lifer voters should watch Fiorina “knock it out of the park.”
