Not so fast, they say that he is a Moderate for Welfare!

He is supposedly not Pro-Life:

"For social conservatives, the black marks against Gonzales are his votes last year on a series of abortion cases. After years of debate, Texas had passed a law requiring parents to be notified if minors were procuring abortions. As in most such laws, there was a provision allowing a judge to override this requirement if, for example, it would subject the girl involved to abuse. In its first cases under the law, the Texas supreme court — with Gonzales in the majority — interpreted this judicial-bypass provision broadly. So broadly, according to one furious dissenting justice, that the law itself was gutted."

Careful before you embrace him and praise this.
In Texas he was for the indigent. He is supposedly Moderate.
