As a Candidate whom Many Pro-lifers Would Like to Support: her actual abortion record and rhetoric is shocking to the conscience in that Sarah Palin:
- happily appointed in 2009 a Planned Parenthood board member to the Alaska Supreme Court
- indicates that chemical abortifacients that kill the youngest children should be legal
- distinguishes between her "personal" and public pro-life views (personally pro-life means officially pro-choice)
- rather than fighting for protection, Sarah indicates support even for public funding to kill some unborn children - whitewashes other candidates misleading millions to believe that pro-choice politicians are pro-life
- allows her name to be used in ads promoting even tax-funded embryonic stem cell "research"
- harms personhood by holding that "equal protection" should not apply to unborn children
- has never announced support for any state's personhood amendment nor the Federal Human Personhood Amendment
- opposes personhood by claiming that the majority can decide to legalize the killing of children.
In her vice-presidential acceptance speech Sarah said, "there is a time for politics and a time for leadership."1 During the above, which time was it for her? Sources below document Sarah Palin's tragic record and political rhetoric.
Summary:
Sarah Palin claims to be personally pro-life but her words and actions prove that she is officially pro-choice and stands against the God-given right to life of the unborn. Even if Roe v. Wade were reversed, Palin says she would still leave the decision to kill children to others.

...at that, pretty much all of this is false. I guess this group doesn’t mind the whole ‘bearing false witness’ thing.
Because to belong is to obey...
precisely
what complete and utter hogwash. Is that you pissant?
If this is a RomneyBot, we have nothing to worry about. The Romney Life Issues page on this sight absolutely skewers him. Romney has done some totally outrageous things for being a Pro-Life candidate. Myth is a lying phony.
I don’t know the truth of the rest of the statements, but after the first statement the credibility of the rest of the article is in doubt.
“Lie in one, lie in all.”
Here’s a piece of advice son. Don’t believe unsourced articles with anonymous authors.
Well put.
Why would you automatically assume that just because it is on the internet it is true? A little discernment goes a long way. Just from the way they throw in editorialized wording like "'happily' appointed" should be a red flag it is agenda based instead of factual based.
Connections to the familiar AIP promoted here by our friend, Eternal Vigilance.
Alan Keyes planning another run?
I can prove Palin is not pro-life, using a whole lot less words than this piece.
Her position, like Gerald R. Ford, John McCain, and Ron Paul before her, is that abortion is up to the states to decide.
If this is true then the supreme right, the right to live, is alienable instead of unalienable. The principles of our nation’s charter, the Declaration of Independence, are negated. Our rights are subject to the whims of men, instead of being only subject to God, the Giver of those rights.
Try that “logic” using any other unalienable right. If a politician said that it was up to the states to decide whether you could keep and bear arms, would you call them “pro-Second Amendment”?
If a politician said that it was up to the states to decide whether you could speak freely, publish at will, petition government for redress of grievances, or worship as you please, would you call them “pro-First Amendment”?
And so on with any of our God-given, unalienable rights...
Well, smoothsailing has posted a sourced rebuttal, It’s definitely time for jobim to back up this article he posted with source. Unless he joins the discussion with facts instead of un-sourced innuendo, then he’s guilty of posting a hit piece. And I suspect we can be sure of his allegiance.
Most of this crap goes back to 2008 when they decided to make up stuff to try to undermine Palin’s VP nod. It is the old, tell a lie often enough paradigm. Just like the so called, Planned Parenthood appointee in reality, was never a board member of Planned Parenthood but they don’t mind continuing that lie and it has become common knowledge(sic) even if there is no truth to it.
Onyx, if Sarah Palin said that it was up to the states to decide whether or not you have the right to keep and bear arms, would you try and convince folks she was pro-Second Amendment?
No?
Why is the supreme right, the right to life, any different?
>>>Her redeeming quality for SoCons is that she walks the walk in her personal life and would relegate socials issues to the States under the 10th Amendment.
Californians can smoke pot and Alabama can outlaw abortion.
Come to think of it, that’s a PROPER reading of the Constitution.<<<
ABSOLUTELY RIGHT.
In fact, speaking as an Alaskan, our conservatives often match the Goldwater model. Alaska is a distinct place, different from South Carolina or Virginia or North Dakota, and there are many issues that have a distinct Alaskan stance. The Constitution understands that what works in Alaska may not work in other places.
As one example, look at our marijunana laws. Yes, it is illegal, although the authorities will look the other way for small amounts in your own home. That’s how we choose to handle it, and it works. Our approach may not work in other places.
The federal government should be restricted to those items listed in Article 1, Section 8 of the Constitution. The rest is left to the states or the people. I’m old enough to remember the abortion debate before Roe vs. Wade, and the issue was discussed and decided locally. The issue became vitriolic once the Supreme Court federalized it. The same goes for drug laws, schools, health care, and a dozen other things that Congress has no business getting involved with.
By the way, I was also fortunate to have seen Goldwater talk several times in the middle 1970s, and he was an impressive guy. If I had to sum up his message, it would be, “What I do in the privacy of my own home is none of your damn business.” Glad I listened, too.
Absolutely. Being a FReeper you would think the poster would know better (look at the join date)
Actually, imo this should be pulled. It’s unsubstantiated garbage. It is what we will be contending with from now on.
The rank dishonesty of the first couple of points is enough for me to stop reading.
Wow! Creative fact distortion and meme-planting in order to sabotage Palin among pro-lifers.
I’m not a rabid Palinite who would defend her no matter what, btw, and in fact I don’t think she even wants to run.
But obviously the left is revving up its attack machine.
Yes, she is - and she CHOSE to carry-to-term and allow Trig to be born because she loved/loves him.
What the liberals hate about Sarah Palin is that she lives what she believes. Liberals SAY they are pro-choice - but only if the woman chooses to abort, especially if the unborn child is somehow "defective."
Sarah Palin's decision to have, love, and raise all of her children is what the anti-life leftists can't stand.
God bless and protect Sarah and her entire family!
Good job and thank you.
