The pregnant woman has the right to choose to have an abortion or to choose to have the baby. You can't say that it is a right to kill an embryo or a unborn baby as such. It is a right to choose not to continue being pregnant.

So if someone is elected to office, and swears to protect the Constitution and the Laws of the U.S., they are in essence in a position to protect a woman in her choice to have an abortion or a baby.

Now, the Oath of the Presidency to my knowledge doesn't have the "and the Laws of the U.S." in it. I do know that most law enforcement or judicial positions do have that provision in the Oath of Office. This is why I feel that when Rudy says he believes a woman has the right to choose, he is thinking more as one that would interpret and understand law. He is correct when he says a woman has the right to choose.

I am pro-life and feel the end to abortion will not come through a change in law, but a change in hearts and limiting access to the procedure itself. I suggest reading Access, an excellent publication of Life Dynamics:

Please point to the specific law or specific portion of the U.S. Constitution that gives a woman the "right" to choose to kill her unborn child. You invoked the "law" and the Constitution when you said that a woman has a right to choose to abort her child:

Registered said: "I think it's important to understand that ANYONE serving in a public office that is given the charge to defend the Constitution and the Laws of the United States can without bias say that a woman does have a right to choose. That is the law."

But when challenged on your statement, you said that they are "in essence in a position to protect a woman in her choice to have an abortion or a baby." In essence?! Is that like a penumbra...or an emanation? Isn't that the kind of living constitution crap - precisely the same kind of crap - that a liberal would spout?!

Now, answer the question...Can you point to the actual law or the actual portion of the Constitution that gives women the "right" to kill their unborn child?

Certainly, the end to abortion will be greatly prolonged if a pro-abortionist - even a pro partial birth abortion - Republican is nominated and the pro-life party is hijacked. If you truly want abortion to stop you need to stop providing cover for the pro-abortionist candidates and also stop beating on the conservative candidates and demoralizing their supporters.
