As presidential candidates fight for the support of women voters, Rep. Joe Walsh, R-Ill., on Thursday incited the wrath of women's groups on Thursday when he argued that abortion is never necessary to save a woman's life. • In comments first reported by WGN radio, Walsh argued that with modern technology and science, you can't find one instance in which an abortion would be needed to save a woman's life. • There is no such exception as life of the mother, and as far as health of the mother, same thing, he said following a debate with his Democratic rival Tammy Duckworth. • Duckworth said in a written statement that she was saddened by Walsh's comments, adding, Not only do they show how uninformed he is, but his views put women's lives in real danger. • Planned Parenthood disputed Walsh's comments as both false and deeply troubling. • Joe Walsh's ignorance about women's health is alarming, said Planned Parenthood's Dawn Laguens, in a statement. It is deeply troubling that he and some politicians have such a fundamental disregard for women and women's health. As the advocate for Planned Parenthood health centers, we know that ending a pregnancy can often be a very complex, personal decision and that there are absolutely times that a woman's life depends on it. * Jimmy Dore (The Jimmy Dore Show) and John Iadarola (TYT University) break down instances in which abortions may actually be medically necessary. • *Read more from Lucy Madison/CBS News: • http://www.cbsnews.com/8301-250_162-5... • Support The Young Turks by Subscribing http://bit.ly/TYTonYouTube • Like Us on Facebook: • Follow Us on Twitter: http://bit.ly/OkX87X • Buy TYT Merch: http://theyoungturks.spreadshirt.com/
