No, you have only got it half right. It is much more preposterous than that. He believes life begins at conception but instead of doing what you said he is doing "nothing to safeguard" he is actively campaigning FOR infanticide. He was one of the few, if I remember correctly, campaigning actively and passionately FOR partial birth abortion.
Many, many thanks. Yours is the definitive statement on Kerry's calculated "pro-life" position. It's the one we should all be using. Thanks, again.
