“The pro-life movement has been focused for a generation on electing pro-life presidents, vice presidents, legislators and drain commissioners. None of it has changed abortion law in America.”
Well, Dan, I guess it’s all over then and the Republicans should just accept it and become a pro-choice party!/s
Political expediency over principle is what has gotten the party in the mess it’s in. Throwing out what few principles the party still stands for isn’t going to fix that.
How many babies have been saved by this devotion to principle?
None.
I agree with the principle, but it hasn’t accomplished a damn thing. My problem with the pro-life movement is not its objective. I support the objective. It’s the insistence on sticking with a strategy that never saves any babies, and in my view, never will.
