These conservative reporters are just ridiculous with their 'baby parts' questions. However, Nancy Pelosi was happy to smack one down.

"Is an unborn baby with a human heart, a human liver, a human being?" asked Sam Dorman, a reporter from the conservative outlet CNSNews, during Pelosi's weekly press briefing.

"If it's not a human being, what species is it?" he added.

Pelosi said Dorman was welcome to be at the press conference, but that she wasn't going to respond to his "ideological question":

I am a devout practicing Catholic, a mother of five children. When my baby was born -- my fifth child -- my oldest child was 6 years old. I think I know more about this subject than you, with all due respect. And I do not intend to respond to your questions, which have no basis in what public policy is that we do here.

Can you help us out?
