When you're trying to defend abortions in the second and third trimesters, your calling card is often that such abortions are rare, rare, and rare. So when the reality of a political party--the Democrats--has proven by word and deed that they will accept no limitations--NONE--the typical defense shifts to how few there are them. And too boot (so the rationale goes) it's most often when the child is said to be fatally ill.
So when former New Jersey Governor and candidate for president Chris Christie appeared on Morning Joe on Tuesday and said that New Jersey allowed "abortion up to nine months," it was too much for co-host Mika Brzezinski.
It went like this:
"Okay, it's not an abortion at nine month and there's not a doctor that would do it, and it only happens in extremely severe circumstances. You can come back and bring me the evidence of women across the state of New Jersey having abortions in the ninth month. It's not happening, Chris, come on."
"You said this the last time you were on and I let it go, I can't let it go again," she added, according to Isaac Schorr. "There's no abortions in the ninth month."
