It won’t matter to those who love to twist, and take out of context, Cain’s statements about abortion, they will keep plugging along with their complete idiocy much to the detriment of their integrity.
Rick Santorum endorsed the fiercely proabort Arlen Specter for senate against the prolife now Sen. Toomey.
It is a sorry sight to see Santorum ending his race as a TOOL of the left.
This doesn’t sound very pro-life to me: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=B8WmqiOiUdc
I got this e-mail from the Cain camp about an hour ago:
Dear Friends,
The abortion issue is very serious. I believe strongly that this is true, and I believe that you do too.
Because the news media loves to make mountains out of mole hills, I want to be very clear about where I stand on abortion:
I am 100% pro-life, period.
Let me explain. In an interview yesterday with Piers Morgan on CNN, I was asked questions about abortion policy and the role of the President.
If you listen to the line of questioning, it is clear that Mr. Morgan was asking if I, as president, would simply “order” people to not seek an abortion.
My answer was focused on the role of the President. The President has no constitutional authority to order any such action by anyone. That was the point I was trying to convey.
As to my political view on abortion...again, I am pro-life. End of story.
As President, I will appoint judges who understand the original intent of the Constitution. Judges who are committed to the rule of law know that the Constitution contains no right to take the life of unborn children.
I will oppose government funding of abortion. I will veto any legislation that contains funds for Planned Parenthood. I will do everything that a President can do, consistent with his constitutional role, to advance the culture of life.
Friends, please know that I appreciate all of your support. Together, we will put America back on the right track.
Sincerely,
Herman Cain
