Third GOP presidential primary debate: on Families & Children


Chris Christie: Pro-life is not just in the womb, it's for the whole life

Gov. Chris Christie: The bigger issue is we're not pro-life for the whole life. To be pro-life for the whole life means that the life of a 16-year-old drug addict on the floor of the county lockup is precious and we should get treatment for her to restore her life. The 52-year-old who's drug addicted should make sure that any of his children who he's passed that addiction on to are treated well, too. Pro-life is not just in the womb, it's for the whole life.
