They have no problem with all the liberal girl babies being aborted by their pals.
I would not bet that way.
BTW, thanks for your succinct explanation of the effects of Roe vs Wade. However, in re Giuliani, claiming "credit" for adoptions and fewer abortions: it's an American political tradition. Office holders get credit for anything good that happens on their watch. Conversely, they get blamed for anything bad. Clinton gets credit for a "robust economy" during his tenure, which was really Bush I's doing. Giuliani can claim credit for anything perceived as good happening while he was mayor, a period now entering "legend" status, i.e. like PT 109, the story gets better with each telling.
Yes, Giuliani is trying to grab credit for the number of adoptions increasing in NYC and believe me, he had nothing to do with that. National Review summed him up very nicely: “Pro lifers will have to turn elsewhere . . . Giuliani could simply have stated [as the late Senator Paul Coverdell did] that Roe v. Wade was a bad decision and that this should have been left to the states”. He has made it clear that he is no friend of pro lifers. Kay Bailey Hutchinson of Texas is technically not pro life but has a strong pro life voting record. Rudy simply has no respect for the preborn. I cannot bring myself to vote for him because of this.
