Dear Dark Skies,
The clarification is nearly meaningless.
All that it says is that Mr. Giuliani would try to persuade his daughter from procuring the murder of her baby before giving her the money to go do the deed.
The fact remains: If he had a daughter who really wanted to have an abortion, he'd pay for it himself.
Disgusting.

He is anti-abortion, but he believes that making abortion illegal forces women to seek out back alley abortions when they cannot be persuaded to have the baby.
I am strongly pro-life and I agree with you that abortion is disgusting (and murder/sin).
On the other hand, I also believe that premarital sex is a sin and that sin leads to pregnancy.
We have seen that legislative prohibitions for the most part don't stop such sins as these.
I believe the solution in the long run is a matter of educating women (and men) so that they understand the implications of an abortion (and there are tremendous psychological ramifications from having an abortion) and so that they are offered the opportunity to have the baby and put it up for adoption if they like without the ridiculous social stigma. In fact, having a baby, even if putting it up for adoption, is a heroic and loving act.
Defeating sin cannot be done legislatively. It must be done by spreading the word that sin kills the soul and the spirit.
Your tag line is false and has been shown to be false by court prosecutions.
