Sometimes the Forces of Evil in the country manage to create nuanced talking points to obscure the evil they are intent on inflicting on us. The sophistry vomited out of the mouth of Ba'al to cover opposition to a law making sex-selection abortion illegal is a case in point.

The way the regime intended the message to be sent:

"The administration opposes gender discrimination in all forms, but the end result of this legislation would be to subject doctors to criminal prosecution if they fail to determine the motivations behind a very personal and private decision," White House spokeswoman Jamie Smith said in a statement. "The government should not intrude in medical decisions or private family matters in this way."


The way a Congressional witling garbled the Party Line:



Thanks to the incompetence of prominent members of the Left like Shelia Jackson Lee, only the most Kool-Aid-intoxicated drone would fail to see the preposterous position that defending girls in utero from death by abortion is "an affirmation of the devaluing of woman."
