I'm really fighting the urge to use a sarcastic remark here but I won't. Did you read what this thread is about?!?!? Romney putting a pro abortion candidate on the ticket with him!
That's quite a difference than 2 weeks ago. He previously said his running mate would be pro life. He might as well just come out and say that he has changed his position on the issue because if you truly believe that abortion is the taking of an innocent life, then you certainly couldn't put a person on the ticket with you someone who thinks it's ok to take an innocent life. And as I said, if a pro abortion Republican candidate wins, then there is no putting that genie back in the bottle. So if you care about that issue, a stand has to be made. Hopefully it's a Drudge hoax and Rice is not being considered.
I guess the distinction between now and two weeks ago didn't register with me because a) I've never put any import at all on the VP candidate except when the main candidate (like McCain) is iffy health-wise, and mainly because b) I think Romney's "conversion" is, alas, expedient hogwash. :^(
I truly believe that abortion is the taking of innocent life and I also truly believe that advancing homosexual "outreach" to children and forcing adoption agencies to accommodate homosexual couples who want to adopt, is every bit as depraved and evil as being pro-abortion. Romney may have claimed conversion on abortion, but remains firmly committed to the homosexual agenda. Sol I say screw Romney and the donkey he rode in on no matter WHO he picks as VP!
