Appearing as a guest on Tuesday’s All In show on MSNBC, Newsweek senior writer Michelle Goldberg — also of The Daily Beast — observed that the House Republican push for a vote to ban abortion seems “wacky and counterproductive,” and later asserted that “Most people intuitively know that an embryo is not a human being.” […]
A bit later, she found that the pro-life movement’s push for a “personhood amendment” to be “intuitively ridiculous.” Goldberg:
The other piece of this is that there’s actually, I think, a kind of growing pragmatism in the anti-abortion movement. They’re moving away from these personhood amendments, which are patently absurd and kind of strike people, strike most people as intuitively ridiculous. …
Late-term abortion is actually a better issue for them, right? Most people intuitively know that an embryo is not a human being, but most people also intuitively know that at 20 weeks or 22 weeks or 24 weeks, the fetus has some sort of value, even if not value that trumps the interests of the mother.
