Congressional Republicans to Push Stem-Cell Issue ... etc. etc. etc.

Specter is in the Republican Main Street Partnership (plenty of other names you'll recognize too). These members of the Republican party are not social conservatives, not by a long shot.

Bah, all these abortion nuts are making me dizzy. Abortion, with a plethora of evidences from the medical sciences, is killing an unborn baby, infanticide. (some liberals, true to their utilitarian spirit, are suggesting infanticide is legal as long as it benefits the interest of the mother).
All these "choice" propaganda do not take into account the child's "choice". The liberal hypocrisy of protecting the weak turns out to be protecting those who can vote.

This letter is 9 years old!

Beware all. The left sees a crack in the dam with Specter and is exploiting it.

Don't fall for it.

First the fallacious report that Specter "warns" Bush, now this.

Don't fall into a trap set by the left!.

So you saying Specter is innocent of the charge?
Why did Bush endorse this guy? WHY?

Too bad his mother wasn't pro-choice.

Whoa, this is no trap, this letter is legit.

Specter said this when he ran for President.

Give me a break. He is MY Senator (unfortunately)

You noticed too??? The last thing I want to see is FR being accused of spreading a forgery as the real article across the Internet. This document doesn't pass the "smell" test.

I am not a supporter of Specter. My entire family are die-hard Republicans and they voted against Specter because of the abortion issue. My parents, sisters and their family live in PA. I am originally from PA and I supported my family voting against Specter.

Arlen Sphincter doesn't deserve the Judiciary chair. He owes his Senate seat to the president and all the "abortion zealots" who came out to vote on election day.

Another of the "genius" Rove's strategies was supporting this RINO over Toomey.

Wow that's an interesting graph. I think you ought to post that as a separate thread if it hasn't been already.

Seems like the abortion issue hasn't yet motivated enough catholics to switch sides.
