In fact, you said if someone can't support legislation like that, quote, you are making the United States the most barbaric pro abortion regime anywhere in the entire world.

Talk about setting some minimum national standard. For example, we have a partial birth abortion ban in this, in place in this country at the federal level. (49:41–49:46)
