When I click on the link it just opens as a blank page?
I’ve been “found” (out and otherwise) here on FR for several years.
Obviously the work of a freelancer / loose cannon.
I was looking for those comments, but couldnt .... maybe you can post the link or explain.
I did find this comment, which is certainly apropos:
” Daniel Allott’s piece on Gov. Romney’s abortion record disregards the truth in a seeming effort to do as much damage to Romney as possible.
“$50 abortions” is a canard commonly used by those who know better to confuse those who are uninformed.
Romney had nothing to do with establishing that component of the health care plan. The state supreme court has held for nearly 30 years that any state-supported healthcare plan - including the state’s own Medicaid plan that preceded the state’s recent healthcare reforms - subsidize abortion. Nothing changed with the new healthcare plan.
The state’s liberal, veto-proofed legislature could have passed any healthcare plan they wanted. Romney did his best to improve the plan and has used the better, pro-market elements to construct his national healthcare reform strategy.
Allott erroneously suggests that Romney willfully decided to not exempt Catholic hospitals from requirements to provide abortive drugs.
It was the state legislature that overwhelmingly passed a law removing the exemption for Catholic hospitals ? and Romney fought against removing this exemption to the end.
Allott also ignores several of Romney’s pro-life positions: specifically, his successful opposition to law creating a 35 foot protest buffer around abortion clinics and his support for abstinence education in the state schools.”
