Read his "about" page.
No law will stop one single abortion. Anyone who wants one will always go where it is available.
For a barf read his "about" page.
The GOP is no longer pro-life. Look at the leaders presented at the last convention and the roster of GOP Governors. What you saw is what you are going to get. The National pro-life stance has been a 4 year election year cicada. I fear it's gone.
Do you think your policy preference should be law by judicial fiat ala Roe v Wade and its progeny, or by the legislatures legalizing it?
By the way, I am in favor of legalized gay marriage, but only via the latter approach, not the former. The former way is the road to making the judiciary, and the judicial selection process in Congress, and the power of a society to decide democratically these divisive moral issues, a toxic waste dump. Think about it - hard.
And there you have it.
I believe that Laura Bush said a year or two ago that she does not favor the revocation of "Roe v. Wade" too.
Yawners here refuse to admit Bush is pro-Bush. All else is secondary.
Are you not aware that there are more parents wanting to adopt, then there are babies available to adopt? That talking point really has no air left in it.
Jennifer O'Neill will be at the Convention signing her book.
Who is she? Is this an actress?
What will "push" the reversal of Roe is whom Bush selects as SCOTUS nominees, and whether they are confirmed. Nothing else. I wonder why the perfervid types are blasting away at Bush even before he gets a chance to nominate someone?

First off, I am as adamantly pro-life as anyone you are ever to encounter...
This is way beyond vanity -- it is Abuse of FR's posting guidelines.
Please consider this to be a formal abuse report, and act accordingly.
Yeah, sure you did. Let's see the canceled checks.
In the 2000 primaries all the other Republican candidates (Keyes, Buaer, Buchanan, Forbes...)were competing against each other to see who could be the most pro-life by saying such stupid things as "I will outlaw all abortions by executive order within one minute of being sworn in", and "I will only appoint judges who promise to vote to overturn Roe v. Wade", and "I will made abortion a capital offense", etc....
President Bush was being honest with the voters. He said that the abortion laws would never be changed until the hearts of the American people are changed. He refused to promise that he would appoint judges that would overturn Roe; instead saying only that he would nominate strict constructionists.
President Bush has done more to advance the pro-life thinking in America than any other person. He set out to change hearts. His first prime time speech was about embryonic stem cell research, a topic very few Americans had ever heard of.
He created a national dialog, not on whether it was moral to kill a new born baby, or a partially born baby, or a baby in the third trimester; but rather he started a debate on whether it was moral to use an embryo that was already destined to be flushed down the commode.
He moved the football 99 yards in a single play. After months of people arguing the morality of destroying stem cells, it was easy to get a bill passed outlawing partial birth abortion.
Polls show a remarkable shift in the opinion of Americans about abortion since Bush took office.
If Roe is overturned and the states are free to set their own laws, most if not all will outlaw abortion now, thanks to President Bush.
And we have no idea how many millions of abortions did not occur because of the minds that Bush has changed.
Your post is an insult to a fine President and I resent it.
Please please take me off your pinglist!!!...Now!
Huff and a puff, geeezzzz.
The troll formerly known as "rommy" is dead.
Zotted I tell you!
Sad. I think the powers that be might wish me to be the lone "moderate" on this forum. :) Ok, this guy was a few degress more to the left perhaps, but then the poor guy didn't get a chance to revise and extend his remarks.
We already have laws against abortion: Murder. Get a murder conviction for abortion and the game's over.
