George Allen had one pro-choice vote in 1992.

His stated position is that abortion should be legal before "viability." That will turn off enough pro-choice voters to cost him the election.

Sorry you don't like the bitter truth.

Sorry you don't like the bitter truth.

Let me acquaint you with the bitter truth:

Planned Parenthood gives George Allen an Anti-Choice rating of 0% (percentatage of time he's with them).

National Right to Life gives George Allen 100%.

From Project Vote Smart:

2005 Senator Allen supported the interests of the NARAL Pro-Choice America 0 percent in 2005.

2004 Senator Allen supported the interests of the NARAL Pro-Choice America 0 percent in 2004.

2003-2004 Senator Allen supported the interests of the National Right to Life Committee 100 percent in 2003-2004.

2003 Senator Allen supported the interests of the NARAL Pro-Choice America 0 percent in 2003.

2001-2002 Senator Allen supported the interests of the National Right to Life Committee 100 percent in 2001-2002.

2001 Senator Allen supported the interests of the NARAL Pro-Choice America 0 percent in 2001.

1996-2003 Senator Allen supported the interests of the Planned Parenthood (Senate) 0 percent in 1996-2003.

1995-2004 On the votes that the National Family Planning & Reproductive Health Assocation considered to be the most important in 1995-2004, Senator Allen voted their preferred position 0 percent of the time.

While in the U.S. House of Representatives George Allen voted to ban privately-funded abortions for U.S. military servicewomen.

As Governor George Allen issued an Executive Order prohibiting abortion coverage in state employees’ health insurance except in cases of rape, incest, or life endangerment, or severe fetal abnormality.

As Governor he championed the Parental Notification Law.

As Senator he voted to ban partial-birth abortion.

There's your bitter truth.

We're well aware of the fact that for some factions of the "religious right" no candidate will ever be pure enough on the life issue.

Unfortunately for them, the Apostle Paul isn't running and - as EV can tell you - Alan Keyes will never be President.
