Cornelia Pillard, Obama’s radical feminist judicial nominee

Pillard is also a pro-abortion extremist. The right to an abortion, she argues, is necessary to help to “free[] women from historically routine conscription into maternity.” She also contends that men and women who oppose government mandates on employers to provide insurance coverage for contraception “reinforce[] broader patterns of discrimination against women as a class of presumptive breeders.”
Pillard isn’t a fan of ultrasound. She complains that it produces “deceptive images of fetus-as-autonomous-being that the anti-choice movement has popularized since the advent of amniocentesis.” The notion that ultrasound produces images of autonomous beings is absurd. No one claims that the images are of something that is autonomous. Pillard’s concern is that the images look too much like something people want to protect.
