Janet Porter, spokesman for Republican U.S. Senate candidate Roy Moore, began a CNN interview on Tuesday by suggesting that Moore’s Democratic opponent, Doug Jones, supports killing the interviewer’s unborn baby.

“Thank you, it is great to be with you, and by the way, congratulations on your unborn child,” Porter said to host Poppy Marlow, who is pregnant. “That’s the reason I came down as a volunteer to speak for Judge Roy Moore, because he stands for the rights of babies like yours in the womb, where his opponent will support killing them until the moment of birth.”

Porter’s claim is false. Though Jones is pro-choice, he made clear during a recent interview with AL.com that he supports Alabama’s existing abortion laws, which ban most late-term abortions.

“To be clear, I fully support a woman’s freedom to choose to what happens to her own body. That is an intensely, intensely personal decision that only she, in consultation with her god, her doctor, her partner or family, that’s her choice,” Jones said. “Having said that, the law for decades has been that late-term procedures are generally restricted except in the case of medical necessity. That’s what I support. I don’t see any changes in that. It is a personal decision.”

1. I would have cut her off right there and said "this interview is over"

Starting off with a blatant, disgusting lie should be grounds for that.

2. Agree with you that interview should have been halted, BUT their ratings :-(

27. Repubs hate CNN anyway, why not do journalism?

[turbinetree]

4. Yepper, spot on

journalism or some form of media coverage is not about that revenue stream---------------it is about principles and ethics of the business model, you can listen to someone speak, but the minute that they go into loony toon mode, or the kool aid they drank goes into effect-------------------Goodbye

Good point.......................

26. You're exactly right.

24. So there are a few teenagers that Moore didn't have enough time to molest?

And that is relevant how?

7. "Save the BABY from liberal murderers who would rip the helpless child from the mother's

womb right up to the moment of birth"... the moment of birth??...

"And then, once borne, the blessed child, if borne into poverty or not Christian or white, we give not a holy fuck."

"Also if borne in Alabama and female.....all bets are off, sayeth the Lord."

19. I'm pretty sure the Lord is nowhere near Alabama

9. Abortion trumps everything

No pun intended.

[Pacifist Patriot]

11. But of course he did.

[SunSeeker]

12. No, Doug Jones does not want to kill your unborn baby, but Roy Moore may want to rape it. nt

[turbinetree]

13. I just can't imagine him putting forth any bill in the senate and then watch the republican

bring it to the floor for a vote--------------------that is what could be amazing

They only want a rubber stamp jerk in that seat and in the white house seat getting tips from each other

I am now truly believe that this country has lost it's mind---------------you are raised to have principles--------------

[SunSeeker]

14. Republicans were apparently not raised to have principles. nt

He wants it to grow up to be 12 or 13 years old! Of course!

18. To quote the late, great George Carlin:

"When you're pre-born, you're fine. When you're pre-school, you're fucked!". Truer words have ever been spoken!
