Voters Outside Debate Venue Let Kaine Know They're Not Happy With His Abortion Flip Flop

Farmville, VA - On my way into Longwood University for Tuesday night's one and only vice presidential debate, I spotted a protester wearing an anti-Tim Kaine shirt targeting the Virginia senator's abortion record. A Washington Times reporter also found Catholic protesters who traveled several miles to tell Kaine he's giving their faith a bad name.

“He says he’s a devout Catholic, but he’s not. He is 100 percent pro-abortion,” she said. “The lie that he perpetuates that ‘I’m personally against it.’ That is a lie because if you are against it you don’t vote for it 100 percent of the time.”

Kaine, who identifies as Catholic, has frustrated many voters by recently flip flopping on the Hyde Amendment. The law, which just turned 40, prohibits taxpayer funds from going toward abortion. Kaine had been in favor of the amendment for years and says he's "personally opposed" to abortion, yet after becoming Hillary Clinton's running mate, he seemed to fall more in line with her pro-abortion agenda.

Thanks to Kaine's new extreme position, Wall Street Journal's William McGurn is now referring to the Democrat as "Planned Parenthood's Tim Kaine."...

Kaine is no more a Catholic than the man in the moon. He’s a death-loving abortionist, islamist, gay-loving pagan.

You know them by “their fruits.” VA people must see something there that we don’t.

Aren’t the priests mostly pro-abortion too? Or are the pro-abort priests in the minority?

I love it when some atheist Democrat is in full anti-Christian mode spewing out the hate and then finally pausing to see my reaction. So I quote one of President Obama's Christian statements and watch their head explode (figuratively.) Eventually they'll sputter out something like "well, that's the only thing I don't like about him" or some such.

In reality, they all know very well these politicians are not Christians but are ok with the lie. They also know there is a certain percentage of voters who will believe anything no matter what if that's what they want to believe. They are happy to "keep the lie going" and keep those gullible voters on board as well as piously point out any slight transgression of a real Christian.

Thank you for referencing that article Colofornian. Please note that the following rant against abortion is directed at low-information patriots and not at you.

As a side note to Kaine’s flip-flop on abortion, patriots are reminded that the states have never delegated to the corrupt feds, expressly via the Constitution, the specific power to regulate, tax and spend for abortion purposes.

In fact, previous generations of state sovereignty-respecting justices had clarified not only that powers that the states haven’t expressly constitutionally delegated to the feds are prohibited to the feds, the power to address abortion issues in this example, but also that the feds cannot appropriate taxes in the name of state power issues.

The bottom line concerning the so-called “right” to have an abortion is that the states actually needed to amend the Constitution to expressly protect the so-called “right” to have an abortion, just as they did with the rights expressly protected by the Bill of Rights.

In other words, the politically correct “right” from hell to have an abortion was wrongly legislated from bench by anti-state sovereignty, activist justices, these justices stealing 10th Amendment-protected state powers to do their dirty work.

In fact, the Roe v. Wade justices wrongly interpolated the so-called right to have an abortion from the Constitution regardless that a previous generation of state sovereignty-respecting justices had condemned interpolations of the Constitution.

“3. The Constitution was written to be understood by the voters; its words and phrases were used in their normal and ordinary as distinguished from technical meaning; where the intention is clear, there is no room for construction and no excuse for interpolation or addition. [emphasis added]” —United States v. Sprague, 1931.

Sadly, corrupt justices got away with legalizing abortion from the bench because the Constitution that low-information, hypocrite patriots wrap themselves in is evidently not important enough to teach their children about anymore.

Patriots also need to consider that corrupt federal lawmakers are exploiting women by taking advantage of the 19th Amendment, in conjunction with the ill-conceived 17th Amendment, to win votes from low-informaton women with the promise of federal funding for abortion, such women not understanding that such funding is unconstitutional.

Remember in November !

Patriots need to support Trump / Pence by also electing a new, state sovereignty-respecting Congress that will not only work within its constitutional Article I, Section 8-limited powers to support Trump’s vision for making America great again for everybody, but will also put a stop to unconstitutonal federal taxes and likewise unconstitutional inteference in state affairs as evidenced by unconstitutional federal funding for abortion.

Note that such a Congress will also probably be willing to fire state sovereignty-ignoring, pro-abortion activist justices.

Yup...

How many Catholics & Catholic leaders would overlook a politician saying, "I'm personally against trafficking, but why can't we trust women to make their decisions in conjunction with their partner-pimp?"????

That's not only the parallel of what Kaine announced to the world last night, but it's also what Catholics & Catholic leaders are tolerating daily!!!
