Tomi Lahren Fired From The Blaze After Abortion Comments

Posted On 27 Mar 2017

The New York Post reported Monday that Tomi Lahren, one of a crop of new conservative media stars, has been fired from The Blaze after declaring herself pro-choice in a television appearance last Friday.

Lahren, who at only 24 years of age has quickly become one of the most popular rising conservative pundits in the U.S., told the panel on ABC’s The View that she can’t square her libertarian beliefs with anti-abortion laws.

“I’m someone that is for limited government, so I can’t sit here and be a hypocrite and say I’m for limited government, but I think that the government should decide what women do with their bodies,” Lahren said. “Stay out of my guns, and you can stay out of my body as well.”

That sort of opinion is getting popular among a certain libertarian-leaning segment of Republican voters – namely, many of the young, internet-savvy people who were among Donald Trump’s first and most enthusiastic supporters. But it is far afield from the conservative mainstream, and there were many in Lahren’s fanbase who were disturbed by her worldview.

Among them, her employer. Glenn Beck initially came to Lahren’s defense, but he said on his radio show that he could not agree with her position.

“I would disagree that you’re a hypocrite if you want limited government and yet you want the government to protect life of the unborn,” Beck said.

For her part, Lahren was unapologetic, tweeting, “I speak my truth. If you don’t like it, tough. I will always be honest and stand in my truth.”

After originally saying that Lahren’s job was not in jeopardy, though, Beck has apparently severed ties with her.

From the NY Post:

Sources say Lahren — who was suspended last week after flip-flopping on abortion and declaring herself pro-choice — has been banned permanently.

“Glenn is reminding the world of his conservative principles by sidelining Tomi after she insulted conservatives by calling them hypocrites,” one Beck insider told me.

“He’s trying to balance being a leading conservative thinker and also someone who can unify the country,” the Beck associate told me. “He just couldn’t sit by and watch as Tomi Lahren said there’s no way for conservatives to justify anything other than being pro-choice.”

We think that Beck has been dead wrong about Trump, but this was probably the right decision for his network. You have to cut out a niche for your brand, and Beck’s brand of conservatism doesn’t really have room for someone like Lahren or Milo or the other controversial Trump supporters. And as reluctant as we are to admit it, there are plenty of conservatives out there who still want nothing to do with the Trump era. Beck has laid out a welcome mat for them, and why not? Everyone should have a place.

Look at her!! She believes a woman has a right to choose…. someone else said that a long, long time ago… let’s see who said that? I know!!! It was God!
- Ima Independent
  
  What about the life growing inside of her? They would never choose death over being carried to term. A baby’s heart starts to beat within the first few weeks after conception. When you get pregnant, you are no longer making choices for yourself. If you smoke, the baby is affected. If you do drugs or eat nothing but junk food, the baby suffers. Every expectant mom knows this and alters her habits if she cares about her child. In fact, women can be arrested if their baby is born drug addicted yet it is legal for her to murder that same baby through abortion. The fact that anyone would defend the right for a woman to murder her child is beyond belief to me. That baby, given the choice, would choose life. They do not have a voice and we need to defend them against self-centered, narcissistic people who only think of themselves.
  - gotabgood
    
    What you think and what I think about the life growing inside of her….. IS NONE OF OUR BUSINESS…. sorry but that is the bottom line.
    If you are concerned about the baby’s heath so much why do you want to close planned parenthood? They give check ups and care to help the poor have a healthy child.
    Also in all your concern, you cut food stamps, now how is the mother going to eat a healthy diet?
    The only thing you people care about is the mother gives birth!!!!! To hell with the baby afterwards and hell with the mother.
    Pro-life doesn’t end at the birth canal…

      Each individual having a healthy mind, body, and soul it’s called taking care of yourself but it can’t be that way according to the anti-s like yourself in order to control the have to destroy the individual and create a belief they need help being taken care of that is the only reason any of these programs exist. So to answer your question it’s called get a job and get off the food stamp.
      - gotabgood
        
        No, once again you have it assbackwards..
        Liberals want you to have healthcare so you can take care of yourself when medical attention is needed… Like your Ryan/Trump plan, they want to raise the cost with less coverage and kick 24 million people off coverage entirely.
        If you live in out world today, there is a reason most people of the WORLD drink bottled water or filtered water. there is a reason why organic foods are becoming popular, because of the way the corporate farmer grows your food. There is also people with respiratory aliments are warned not to go outside on certain days and kids should play indoors… because our air quality is not fit for humans to breathe it.
        So people are going to get sick and they will need healthcare.
        As for get a job,,,, youaretrue alright.. you truly don’t know what you are talking about. Do you know the employees of Walmart around Christmas time have a food drive for their own employees? Do you know that they also suggest you go and apply for food stamps?
        When the burger flippers protest to get more money… you complain they make too much. You can’t have both ways.. you damn them if on food stamps and you damn them if they make more money than what YOU think they should make…
        Know what I think? I think you should take care of your own business… if you are doing good… count your blessings…. if you aren’t doing good… then you need to better yourself and quit tearing other people down!!

  NO HUMAN has the right to choose to stop an innocent life from living. The woman did not make the life, it is not HERS to take, nor is it anyone else’s right to take. It’s easy to avoid pregnancy, to practice one’s body being one’s own: KEEP YOUR KNEES CLOSED. The choice that adults have is: to have unprotected sex or to be responsible. Too many are too lazy and too anxious for a fling and are reckless and careless…..no life should be taken for those reasons. NO LIFE, EVER.

    It’s easy to avoid pregnancy, to practice one’s body being one’s own:

    Keep your knees closed…. and rape victims don’t get pregnant and if they do it was Gods will she gets raped?
    And ya know, the teen pregnancies were going down as was abortions.. you know why? Do you care why? Because of birth control… but Hobbit Lobby couldn’t handle giving away birth control.

I am an RN for 30 years. Every year I have to do CEU’s to keep my license active. There are subjects I am required to take and I can have a choice of courses I am interested in. The Death and Dying course this year, is 9 chapters long. Now including Homicide and natural disasters along with terrorist attacks etc. Under the chapter on Homicide first paragraph clearly stated what constitutes a Homicide. Among the examples was feticide. If a man causes a woman to abort, at any stage of her pregnancy, not if the child viable, by committing violence on her he has committed feticide. He has killed a fetus and is punished for it, it is considered murder.

I was like AH Haa abortion is murder. Very next sentence was some people think abortion is murder, but if it is a legal abortion then the doc cannot be tried for murder but if the doc is not a legal abortionist then he can be tried for murder.

Then it went on to say, calling it an abortion is preferred. Abortion is a license to kill. Bottom line. No gray lines, abortion is murder.
- Jacks are Wild
  
  Amen!!!
- Francisco Machado
  
  The issue seems not to be “Is it murder” but to be whether this is in the venue of the federal government. Under almost all circumstances, murder is charged and prosecuted under state laws. Federal courts have the power to decide state laws violate the Constitution, but the Constitution contains no guarantee of the right to murder.
  - Matlonc
    
    Let the states vote on it……the problem is when they do the “supreme” court overturns ……just like gay marriage- leave it up to the states
  - Tiger
    
    Well I can agree with most of what you say but I think it is clear to anyone with a snippet of a brain, pulling a fetus apart, while it is alive ends in MURDER. Bottom line. Doesn’t matter what nomenclature anyone puts on it or excuse.

  I agree with you on everything except the gray area i feel their’s a reason for the gray but only one and that is for rape victims but each situation need to be examined very carefully and it should be the only reason.
  - Tiger
    
    Yes I have to agree that it isn’t a gray area really, but an evil necessity when a woman has been raped or there is incest. Horrible decisions and I am deeply thankful I never had to make it.

      Unfortunately, even in rape, that child is one half the product of the woman. She is in fact killing her own child. While I understand the trauma of carrying to term, Giving the child to a loving couple would be a proper choice. Of course that is an old woman’s opinion.
      - Tiger
        
        I am torn on all that. Again I am just so lucky to never have faced that decision.

  how can it not be? i love when the people for it say “its my body”….total b.s. He/she (not “it”) is a HUMAN being from the get go. Give the child up for adoption to someone who wants a child but cannot have one for whatever reason. Killing an innocent baby is a lazy choice and murder indeed. Don’t even get me started on the doctors that come in AFTER an abortion is unsuccessful and kill the baby AFTER it is born. Think about that for a second- now remember obama supported that legislation…..
  - Tiger
    
    I know all about the docs who kill the baby after it is born, if that were televised I would like someone to say they didn’t murder that baby.
    
    I know what Obama did and I remember the cartoon in the Chicago paper showing God looking down and Obama standing over a baby and saying: “You stay out of this.” I only wish I could see Obama get his and suffer.
  - Starman535
    
    There are many grey areas in this, however. True, a late term > ~22-24 weeks, is clearly murder. There are many serious medical treatments, such as for maternal cancer, that might cause a fetus to be damaged or aborted if pursued. There are also rape and (rarely) incest cases that need to be considered as well.
    - Matlonc
      
      You are right on the obscure issues and I agree. One final note though- I don’t care what she thinks about anything, Tomi Lahren is smokin hot !!!!

- Tasine
  
  I’m an old retired nurse and until I die, I’ll NEVER go along with abortion on demand. Abortion to save the mother is one thing, to get the baby out of the mother’s way so she can continue living her “life style” is unforgivable. Additionally, if killing a fetus is murder for a man, it is also murder for the woman, I don’t give a hoot what any imbecilic JUDGE says……he is WRONG. Next thing we may know is that killing a white is O.K. for blacks, but MURDER for other whites……Stupidity is the order of the day. Our government is SEVERELY BROKEN, AND IS RUN BY SO MANY TOTALLY IGNORANT IMBECILES, I SINCERELY DOUBT ANYONE CAN STRAIGHTEN OUT.

    Tasine so enjoyed your post and you are entirely correct. My father taught me right is right and wrong is wrong and we know the difference. Man creates gray areas to do what he wants. Abortion is a black dark soil on the Soul of America and those who do it to: “Go on with their lives” as you say will pay a heavy price cause there is a system of payback in this world, I have seen it happen to every evil CEO, nurse manager, neighbor etc I have ever know.

        I grew up being a loyal Methodist. Became church organist when I was 16 years old. Entered nursing because I saw it as my calling in life. Attended a Baptist school, and became Baptist. I, too grew away from “church”,but I am as close to God as I ever was – we talk frequently. I do not feel guilty about breaking with the church and I still support Christianity for at least one really great reason: without religion, this country would have never existed as the wonderful nation it was. And I,too, stick to the 10 commandments as best I can.

        I became closer to God after leaving the church. I read my bible and spend time with God every day. He is the one who taught me what it really is to love him. Going to church hearing the false teaching and contrary doctrine coming from the pulpit I just could no longer do. Far too often I find that what is taught from the pulpit s different than what is in The Word. God tells us to watch out for false teachers and how to spot them. The churches are full of them! I tell people to listen to these pastors less and read God’s Word more.

  The current RC Pope was the one to put the nail in the coffin of the pro-choice movement by declaring abortion is murder. He being the preeminent voice of morality for all Christians should know better, because if abortion were murder the biblical punishment would be the same as for murder. It isn’t. It’s treated as a property crime, with penalty to be assessed as the woman’s husband determines. See for yourself, Exodus 21. An ancient pope also declared Sunday to be the Sabbath, another lie easily disproven, see Exodus 20. And the motto on the papal crown declares VICARIVS FILII DEI, the Roman numeral equivalent of 666. Strike a bell? I would not trust anything coming from any Pope.
  - Tiger
    
    You are talking the Old Testament. There were no Popes in Ancient times and the Catholic Church nor any Church had not even come to fruition in the Old Testament and wasn’t until the New Testament and St. Paul that the Catholic Church came into being.

  Thank you for the great information. I worked as a nurse in a trauma center emergency dept. for 20 years and during that time I have had to assist in a few emergency “abortions” that were necessary to save the life of the mother due to the premature death of the fetes or other emergencies.
  
  All of these “pro-choice” people should be made to assist on just one of these type of procedures and lets see if their opinion changes. Anyone with a heart or love of a child should know that abortion is murder and should NEVER be used for birth control.
  - Tiger
    
    You are welcome. The fetus is alive when aborted, after being torn apart, piece by piece they are dead. The doctor killed the fetus. Facts.
    - Tasine
      
      And those babies have nerve endings. No one can tell me and make me believe they do not suffer immeasurable pain during abortion, but callous people do not care because the baby cannot scream from the birth canal, cannot beg for mercy, cannot help itself……and the people helping kill it merely want it DEAD.

        The latest video is more stunning than the first 14. The people involved were given their walking papers by the courts and the videos declared to be fact and not messed with. They are at it again and in trouble again.
        
        What you are stating concerning pain is true and it is the not educating people to just what the fetus feels is what keeps them doing this, even though as cruel as these women today are, as completely selfish and self centered wouldn’t matter. If that fetus could scream yes they might think.

  Absolutely! There are two areas I would not ever have taken part in that that was abortion and euthanasia. I would take a mom as a patient but not have any hand in murdering her baby. Neither would I ever initiate a morphine drip in order to keep[ a patient sedated as they die. I had a very dear friend that had been taking pradaxa and had fallen, whether she was dizzy due to a bleed in her brain or the bleed happened because of the fall, only the Lord knows but she was not even given a chance to recover. She had a plug and was given morphine when she got restless. No iv fluids were given, just morphine and the third day they finished her with iv ativan.Being I was not family, I had no say but the family believed it was all mercy. It broke my heart to see them doing that and the sad part was when I spoke to her she tried to answer me and due to the morphine could not. She was an independent lady, lived alone, drove etc. No reason to not at least give her a chance to recover.
  - Tiger
    
    Indeed I refused to be anywhere near abortions. We were told, after seeing the films that we had the right to stand down from things that went against our beliefs and told to stay clear of these areas.
    
    As to euthanasia my CEU also had a chapter on the New Ethics. That included signing a permit, like Advanced Directives that gave the doctor the right, even if it resulted in death to make the decisions for the care of the patient. The document pretty much said trust the doctor and his professional decisions. Ezekiel Emmanuel was the doctor in charge on writing the O care and he is a huge fan of euthanasia and co-authored a book that was all about euthanasia for population control, I figure that is where these New Ethics and forms came from. That book pretty much said that those who can’t contribute to the society and work anymore are to be taken out for the good of the society.
    
    I get sickened when I see this disgusting thing talk on TV.
    - Sandy129
      
      I feel the same way. My parents both died from cancer and neither one of them was euthanized. The cancer doctor came to see Mom at her home and said she was too weak to have chemo and ordered morphine patches for her. The dosage was for 2 and I was willing to try only one on her and after an hour or so her respiratory rate was dropping so I removed it and cleansed the area it was on. I couldn’t do anything about what had already absorbed. Her rate had dropped to 8 an hour before coming back and she didn’t need any pain meds at all for almost 3 days. I believe in my heart that his intention was to euthanize her. She did have a short down time but then went into what we call the rally and enjoyed Thanksgiving, Christmas and her birthday on January 5th before she began to go down hill. She lapsed into co2 narcosis and went very peacefully to be with the Lord. Neither of my parents went until the Lord decided. There is no value placed on human life anymore and its disgusting to see the down right cold hardheartedness of many medical personnel. The advance directives can give the dr the power to decide. I personally don’t want that but have stated in my earlier one before o care that I refuse DNR status no matter what. The Lord will decide as long as I have my voice. Just as my parents had desired to be home, I do as well whenever my time comes but I prefer to hear that Trump of God sound!

    Welcome. Some things are not in the gray area, when tearing a fetus apart limb from limb and it is moving to get away from the lethal weapon then it is alive and when the murderer is finished it is dead. The doctor killed the fetus.

Lahren confuses “my truth” and “truth”; perhaps she’s just stupld, but it’s plain that from the very first what’s in the womb is an independent human being. If she believes otherwise, her belief is in opposition to scientific fact and while perhaps she’s inclined to conflate the two, Libertarian is definitely not Conservative. She needs to find some other organization to work for and she needs to conform her “truth” to truth.
SouthernPatriot

Tomi claims to be a conservative…a conservative what? Maybe an economic conservative? Her reasoning is so flawed. She wants conservatives to support killing unborn babies, cutting them up and removing the dead babies from their mother. If one stumbles on the question of LIFE, what is the purpose of anything else. All else follows if one has life. To deny life is to deny all benefits of life, and all benefits of economic conservatism.
- anAmericanByChoice
  
  No she does not. She does not want any conservative to support anything they do not believe in. What she wants is simple: mind your own business and let everyone else mind theirs. Likewise, she supports, I am certain, your rights to think as you do and act accordingly or not, because that is your choice; and the rights of all Christians who do not think it is according to God’s Laws to participate, in any form, in the legal or illegal union of two individuals of the same sex, as a couple, and call that union marriage – be it someone renting a home, baking a cake or selling flowers. What Tomi believes in is indeed simple: do not let the government, at any level, make laws that interfere with individual choices, for which you, and you alone are responsible and will be held responsible for, in the eyes of God. The day will come – and I am assuming you believe in it – when all men, woman, child will have to stand before God to account for their choices and actions; then, judgement will be passed. Not yours, not men’s, not NY’s, CA’s or FL’s, not Obama’s, Trumps’, or the federal government’s, but His judgment. So, no, Tomi does not want conservatives to support killing babies, and it does not matter how graphic and heart wrenching or emotional you try to make your description, “cutting them up and removing the dead babies from their mother,” is, or how you try to infer what her “wants” or “beliefs” are, it won’t work. You are free to think, feel and act as you may, and she stands for that. Same with women who want to make that decision, not have someone else take it away from her; same with gays, same with anyone else on any matter; you cannot claim for yourself rights you deny others, and not be an hypocrite – that is what she stated. Tomi believes that the government should stay out of people’s private business, not write and enforce laws that violate privacy, be it stopping an abortion, or what light bulbs, toilets or wood burning stove you use.
  Now the issue becomes even more complicated when it becomes ‘legal” or “illegal” to do certain things, because then, tax money goes into programs that support such things; think Obamacare, abortion clinics, etc. Do you want your tax dollars paying for abortions? I don’t! So what is the solution? Less government, less legal robbery (taxes in most cases that’s what they are,) and less funding, or,better yet, no funding at all, to the likes of such “services,” of which Planned Parenthood is one. Abolish the welfare state, period.
  Thoreau, in Civil Disobedience, wrote: “I heartily accept the motto,—“That government is best which
  governs least;” and I should like to see it acted up to more rapidly and systematically. Carried out, it finally amounts to this, which I also believe,—“That government is best which governs not at all;” and when men are prepared for it, that will be the kind of government which they will have. Government is at best but an expedient; but most governments are usually, and all governments are sometimes, inexpedient[…]” and people continue to control other people, dictate what is right and wrong and stand as judges, interpreters, enforcers and executioners of laws that are far from perfect. So, if one wants more government, abortion and so many other things to be regulated, along comes also regulation about what we all can and cannot possess (such as, for example, fire arms,) what food we eat, how we warm up our homes, etc.
  
  So, do not put words and ideas where they do not belong and do not infer from what Tomi said, like you know that “She wants conservatives to support killing unborn babies, cutting them up and removing the dead babies from their mother[,]” because that is not what she said.
  
  Also, I would ask you, “Are American soldiers, serving their country in the military, violating the “Thou shalt not murder” Commandment? Well, sadly sometimes yes; again, why? Because they are following orders from a corrupt government that continues to meddle in the affairs of other nations abroad, and then disrespect and cast aside VAs who have given all they could to serve the US of A.
  
  Fact is, Southern Patriot, that you simply cannot have one side of the coin, and not the other!, so do not expect to eat the cake and still have it.

  I’m a conservative. You obviously did not see or her comments in context. I’m against abortion but I know how things work. Make it illegal and you know what will happen and that’s unacceptable to me. When the government gets involved it gets all phucked up. And she never said we should pay for others to have abortions.
  Yeah, people like you would see it abolished and walk away all self effing satisfied, problem solved…just as long as it goes on in back rooms. Nothing worse than an un-thinking Christian.

Women who have had abortions and /or support abortion are non-Christians & are murderers. They will be judged in the end. They won’t need a sweater where they are going.
- RobertNorwood
  
  But their judgment won’t be by you…you have no notion of how God thinks, what decisions will be weighed.
  - Jacks are Wild
    
    Do you know how God thinks? Do you really think God would condone abortion of any kind?
    - RobertNorwood
      
      I didn’t say I do, also didn’t say God would condone abortion. I only imply, and I could be way off, that God is a better judge of our actions and is not the vengeful absolutist some folks envision.
      - Jacks are Wild
        
        Are you familiar with the Sodom & Gomorrah action?
      - RobertNorwood
        
        Well that’s the Old Testament God who condoned taking from others, genocide, etc. When I was a kid I couldn’t wait to read the Bible. I snapped ours off the shelf and I was mesmerized at first but then disappointed. “This is the word of God”? I really expected something other than a mish mash on the history of a people and their myths mixed with the word of God. Only as an adult studying the Genesis could I appreciate what it was and how to read the message. Anyway, I doubt that satisfies your question but any time God wants a do over on us I’m ready, I will face the end and whatever is coming to me good or bad. Only God can judge my journey.
- Moki
  
  Actually, because of Jesus, women who have had abortions …And even the men who insisted upon those abortions, or those men who simply abandoned both the women and the unborn baby, can all go to heaven, if they receive Jesus. The blood of Jesus far outweighs the sin of abortion.
  - Jacks are Wild
    
    It is still murder!!!!!

      I agree with you. But it is important to acknowledge the goodness and grace of God and the truth that all of us have sinned and fallen short of the glory of God.

I think we conservatives need to distinguish between first trimester abortion and anything later. If we ever succeeded in repealing Roe v Wade, we’d have an epidemic of illegal butchery done under the most deplorable conditions, not to mention an exploding population of parasites and other liberals. Beck’s an asshole and his show is a sinking tub.
- Ima Independent
  
  So are you saying abortion is o.k. in the first trimester? Do you know that a baby’s heart starts to beat in the first few weeks after conception? Abortion stops a beating heart in every case.
  - Tasine
    
    Perhaps things have changed since I was in nursing school, but back then, we were taught that the heart begins beating toward the end of the first trimester. Whenever it starts should be on no note -abortions are totally unnecessary as there is a morning after pill that one can take. Abortions were not done during my nursing career. You can imagine how old I am! 😉

M6 question is this. If a woman get pregnant and then decides she doesn’t want the child she can abort it. Where do the rights of the father of the child what if he wants to keep it. And on th other side of a woman wants to keep the child but the father don’t. Why does the father not have a say in it. If he wants it she can still get an abortion ans if he don’t for no other reason then any women could use like no money to rase a child or not in a good place in life as so many women use still be forced to pay for said child. Just a question I wonder about. I am prolife all th e way but if a woman can not be held to have to raise the child how can you justify makeing a man do it.
- RobertNorwood
  
  You make a good point but in most cases the women are getting abortions because the sperm donor doesn’t plan on being a father or a husband. These are for the most part stupid and unsophisticated people. As for educated mature individuals who should know better, plan better – shame on them.

  Opinions are uncomfortable things these days. She’s a fantastic sensible voice for conservatism and popular with a lot of us. If those of us who have a slightly different view from these folks dropped out they’d be up schit’s creek they’re so in the minority. They’ve spent years and years at the back of the bus – we brought them along with us and now they think they own the shop.
  - Tasine
    
    I don’t know who you think you are, but whatever love you have for yourself, be advised that killing a baby needlessly is MURDER, and most conservatives, Christian or not, DO NOT APPROVE OF OUT AND OUT MURDER OF ANY INNOCENT LIFE. I, for one, am not a Christian, but to think of the murder of a baby brings tears to my eyes and hatred for the murderer.

Posted in reply to SouthernPatriot’s comment, but also other comments here:

No she does not. She does not want any conservative to support anything

Interestingly, it is the specific qualification of the legitimacy of the sex act, with respect to definition by law, while not regulated, as an occurrence, by law, over which women wish to exercise an “all rights reserved” prerogative, the violation of which is enforceable and punishable by law. So be it! Why is abortion, then, such a frequent necessity? You can’t tell me that fully twenty percent of the pregnancies in the U.S. are unwanted because men violated “all rights reserved.” Doestoevsky titled one of his books, “Crime and Punishment,” NOT “Crime and Choices.” It is far more libertine than libertarian to insist that one bad choice deserves another, such that two wrongs make a right. In the words of King David, the humanity-pervasive truth that, “In sin did my mother conceive me,” has not affected the proper and beneficial discrimination of legitimacy on the basis of human law which qualifies it. Yet, when the law of natural occurrence occurs, the choice to negate the consequences necessitates the imposition of the law of choice to counteract the law of natural occurrence, which occurrence must be regulated, by law, in order for the propriety of choice to be proper.
What we have known, since reading the account of creation and original sin, is that “choice” is the problem. Choice is not limited to one individual in relationship, nor are the effects of one person’s choice on the other.

She’s a Libertarian, not a Conservative, and thinks we should be free to murder our children. The Blaze was quite right to fire her; perhaps she can get a job with some radical left outfit.

  Let her sit in on a few abortions and baby part harvesting, and she just MAY change her too immature mind.
- RobertNorwood
  
  Oh shut up – she never said that you flaming arse hole.
  - dclach
    
    She never said ‘what’? Are you saying she’s not in favor of abortion? If not, what are you saying?
    - RobertNorwood
      
      “free to murder our children” is a far cry from saying she doesn’t think abortion should be illegal. We know where it will go if it’s made illegal and that is unacceptable. I do not favor abortion, I simply recognise the realities. People will no more stop having unwanted children than stop doing drugs, robbing and stealing, etc. Some people shouldn’t have children. It’s an ugly compromise.
      - dclach
        
        Some people will continue robbing and stealing whatever our laws, but that does not mean we should not have laws and punishments. Doing drugs harms no one else unless our taxes are used to care for those who do drugs. I agree that some people shouldn’t have children; perhaps there is room for mandatory sterilization. But legal abortion does mean murdering our children. You may wish to avoid using the term “murder” but it is exactly that. Laws only have teeth as there are suitable punishments and those who are inclined to rob and steal are deterred by our laws. Likewise laws against abortion (which we rightly call murder) deter abortion. Allowing and even funding abortion is not the proper place of compromise; rather I think it’s between obligatory sterilization and execution.
        
        If abortion is not illegal, then we are in fact free to murder our children, as we have been doing for over 50 years. I am saying that it should be illegal with suitable punishments.

With all the birth controls and day after birth control there is NO reason for abortion. The only chance for life ever done with an abortion is MURDER and the ONLY chance for life gone for ever
John Williams

I am a far right conservative (Tea Party), I do not believe in abortion on demand as a form of birth control, as it is used by many, simply on a whim. I do however believe that there are times it is necessary and acceptable, to carry a child 8 1/2 months and then change your mind is not acceptable. We know for a fact that “preemies” can and do survive from early on, so all must admit that viability at an early point is backed up by know facts, I do not believe in the situation pushed by some religions that it is at the point of conception. To fire Tomi for voicing her opinion or thoughts, which obviously, do not agree with Beck’s, is down right hypocritical, no different than left wing loons who refuse to acknowledge the thoughts of others, he has lowered himself to that level. She is entitled to her opinion, as are others are entitled to theirs, the issue with the left, is you are fine as long as you agree with them, disagree, and you are a, insert one of about 6 labels here, Beck has lowered himself to that hypocritical level.
ricktenny

I don’t understand how having unprotected sex, or changing your mind about bringing a baby into this world, after setting out to do so, has anything to do with a woman’s right to do what she wants with her body. If the right to choose is what this is all about, then choose to buy a condom. Abortion on the wholesale level is unacceptable as a method of birth control.

I used to like to like Tomi, but her comment is so far out in left field that it is impossible to comprehend her comment.

  It is a baby from the moment of conception and by the time we even know we are pregnant, its little heart is beating already. It amazes me how it can be called a hunk of flesh, its a human baby at different growth stages. Its got to be about conscience. Thats the only thing I can figure. Calling it a baby is too much like admitting its actually a human baby? I have heard my Ob’s nurse say as much and as nurses, we know better.

My God. What a bunch of name calling idjits I see just a’whinnin’ and a whopping’ an’ a’hollerin’ at each other here. Look, folks, she’s not a “Doctrinaire” conservative, she’s much more of a Libertarian, as are many of her generation, a lot of whom voted for Trump (and not Bernie of Hillary) as mentioned here. Got it? So, for the past several election cycles I’ve been hearing the Republican “Old Guard” proclaim we should be the party that has a “Big Tent”. A “Tent”, by the way, many of you are not even treating like a Circus Tent, but a Carnival Sideshow Tent and you are the “Carnies” who are using a tent peg to drive through her heart like a stake through the heart of Dracula. So much for the concept of being open and welcoming to others who may not be quite all “There” yet ideologically. So much for the idea of winning the hearts and minds of others with reasoned, judicious and patient persuasion. Acting like “Progressives” is not doing you or your ideas and favors.) So go, stamp your little feet, after you get thrown off your high horses, and drown in your small, “High Mindedness”, to your intolerant, “Pure-Of-Heart’s” Content. (I, by the bye, am a “Classical Liberal”. Better known today as a “Constitutional Conservative”.)

Lahren, you might rather rethink your ‘my’ truth, and consider God’s Truth; which is His Son, the Way, the Truth, and the Life for all eternity. The alternative is eternal damnation.
WhiteFalcon

She needs very much to go and look ad about a hundred aborted fetuses at all points of pregnancy. I’ll bet that would change her mind. It should teach her that life begins at conception, not at birth. Just as it is a fact that a seed is a baby plant, it is also a fact that a fertilized human ovum is in fact a bay human. When I was her age, I thought the same way she is thinking right now, but when I really thought about the facts, I could not get away from the basic fact that a person’s life absolutely has to begin at conception. There is no way around it. When a woman is pregnant, she is two separate lives in one body. That baby is not a choice any more. He is a human being. The choice was whether or not to have sex at that time. After that the choice is over and done. Abortion is cold blooded 1st degree murder as that crime is defined.

Sure surprises me that Tomi’s Pro-Abortion!!

(I know I know they call it
Pro-Choice, but it’s Pro-Abortion – and Feds shouldn’t be involved
anyway, for her to have to say “Gov’t get away from my body!”, It should be a States’
Rights thing… but when ‘such as her’ took it to Sup.Court with Roe V Wade,
then they invited Gov’t into their bodies!!)

Sadly, Glenn Beck is right to have to let her go.
mike

Should not have fired her. I’m fairly conserative in my views. My friends are mostly conservative. We do not agree on all issues. Half of her statement was “stay out of my guns”. Fully agree with her on that. Fact is any time any guest on the view is not lock step lib., their gonna get set-up and ambushed by the witches.
