I supported Senator Thune in both runs for the Senate, as I think you know.

But, since then I’ve come to believe that we as a movement and a nation need to take a much harder line, especially on the defense of innocent human life. John’s rape and incest exceptions are unconstitutional, illogical, and immoral, and so I won’t be supporting him any longer, unless he recants. It’s really that simple. But it isn’t just Thune. I’m taking that position consistently concerning all candidates.

And I put a big check mark next to anyone who plays ball with Romney. I think he’s a lying liberal and the biggest phony in American politics today. I think he’s dangerous.

Maybe the stance of one activist won’t matter in the least. But that’s what my conscience dictates and I’m willing to leave the results of that decision in God’s capable hands.

Thanks for the reasoned and principled reply.

I think you know how the Abortion Bill played out twice in SD.That said I’m also sure you will understand Mr Thune’s stand, if he is to represent his constituents.

I’ll add my own thoughts on the subject.The Supreme Court decision Roe v Wade is far more Unconstitutional, illogical, and immoral than Mr. Thune’s stand.

I’m not trying for excuses here he is fully capable of explaining his stand on the issues. You know and I know that the percentages on our side of the anti-abortion issue are swinging our way, but are not yet to the point of influencing the Court to vacate that stupid decision.

Demanding from elected officials, that which by law they cannot give does not make sense. They are duty bound to uphold the law until it is changed. Granted they are the ones that make law, but in this case they done been had by the Supremes.

John Thune is as pro life as anyone I know, and I support his candidacy for whatever he seeks. He can only help the cause of life.
