They were both pro abortion

I would have to drag out my copies of "Conscience of a Conservative" and "A Choice Not An Echo" to check but I believe that Goldwater's conservatism had not in 1964 morphed into what became his peculiar brand of libertarianism.

As for Rockefeller, I cannot recall his views on abortion. In fact, I do not think that any candidate prior to the 1970's expressed views on the subject. Like so many subjects that the so-called "right to privacy" has shoehorned into our lives, abortion was simply not discussed, especially in a campaign for the presidency.

Hey!

You beat me to it Pup...

BTW....can we speak of more important things....like foosball?

Dawags v Auburn next week. should be a good one.

Both Goldwater's and Rockefeller's mothers and GHW Bush's for that matter were founders of Planned Parenthood. GHWB did a complete flip-flop in '76 when he ran for President the first time. The other two never did.

I will agree with you on Roe vs. Wade. It is terrible law and should be overturned because it is based on fantasy rather than the constitution. There is no 'Right to Privacy' in the Constitution. Abortion should always have been a state issue.

Yep - there was a time when "some things" were not openly discussed or politiced...now, everything under the sun is fair game.

For example: when the 'toon was asked about his preference in looms.

Sweet mercy - what have we become?

I admire a man or men who can defend the unborn!

Yes it takes two to tango somewhere in there the fault lies between those who know better, not the innocent!
