"I'd like to see it ended, but ultimately I believe that a woman has the right to choose.

The woman does have a right to choose.

Nice. I hope he continues to say that. He'll be out of the race quicker that way.

"I'd advise my daughter or anyone else not to have an abortion," Giuliani said. "I'd like to see it ended, but ultimately I believe that a woman has the right to choose.

That's contradicted by what he said as mayor of NY--where he said he'd pay for his daughter's abortion.

Real class act, this guy.

What's the over-under on Giuliani to begin pandering to conservatives? May? June? If McCain comes out strongly against abortion, he's going to start throwing bones. At any rate, he'll be a liar when he does, and McCain is probably a liar right now.

It's hard to believe that Giuliani would run a pro-choice platform and then nominate constructionists to the Supreme Court. If he thinks there's a right to abortion hidden somewhere in the Constitution, he's not a constructionist, plain and simple.

Under curent law a woman does have the right to choose to murder her baby. I wish it were not so and frankly I see nothing about Rudy that says he'd appoint judges to change that.

His moderate positions on gun control and support for abortion rights do not sit well with the state's Christian conservatives...

If those are "moderate," what would AP call "liberal"?

Looks like Rudy has the same speech writer as Romney.

Well, at least Rudy is admitting what he believes about abortion. How about the right of the people to bear arms?

On Wednesday, Giuliani reiterated his own position. "I'd advise my daughter or anyone else not to have an abortion," Giuliani said. "I'd like to see it ended, but ultimately I believe that a woman has the right to choose.

If it's true that Giuliani said this just yesterday, then it is impossible for me to vote for him. Impossible.

No person has the right to end the life of another person unless their own life is seriously, legitimately threatened by that other person.

There is no right to choose. None. Nada.

Instead we have a right to life, liberty, and the pursuit of happiness. Without life, those other rights are unimportant. Dead people don't worry much about liberty and happiness.

Every scrap of scientific evidence indicates that the child in the womb is a human life.

Like the one cartoon of a young woman speaking to an abortion doctor says: "If it's not life, then why do I need an abortion?"

Duncan Hunter on abortion:

"If a judicial nominee can look at a sonogram, the picture of an unborn child, and not see a valuable human life, I'm not going to give him an appointment to the court," said Rep. Duncan Hunter, R-Calif. "I am going to give him an appointment to an optometrist to get a set of eyeglasses."







"How can I help?"

I hate that term "right to choose." Like you can choose chocolate or vanilla ice cream?

How about "right to choose to have surgical instruments and a suction hose inerted into her womb, with the intent of destroying the human life that is growing in there."?

"whether a woman has the right to choose" is not the point.
The point is: this is a State matter and should be returned
to the States.

Rudy believes a woman has a right to an abortion after she's raped, but not to carry or even OWN a firearm to prevent that rape in the first place.

No thanks, Rudy.

People just love when politicians lie to them.

Ask George W Bush whether a woman has a "right to choose" abortion. He may stumble all over the answer and explain how he thinks choosing that path is wrong, but he wouldn't dare say that a woman does not have that right. It's the law of the land.

We all want to believe that we hold to higher ideals. That we are consistent in our beliefs. It's BS. We all turn and sway depending on when our ox is gored.

Second Amendment absolutists swear allegiance to every dotted "i" in the Second Amendment. But interpret the rest of the Constitution as they see fit.

Everyone has an opinion about what is and is not Constitutional based on a pet interest.

Yet Thomas Jefferson accepted that it is the Supreme Court of the United States- and only the Supreme Court- that decides what is and is not Constitutional. That is settled and a foundation of our system of Government.

Like it or not- a woman has a right to choose abortion in the United States.

But politician know that we prefer lies. So they lie. And then govern in a way that disappoints us. And we- blame not ourselves for buying into the charade- blame the politician.
