First of all, the PBA ban went before SCOTUS and was upheld by SCOTUS because Bush signed the PBA ban and nominated two solid judges.
Clinton vetoed a PBA ban. Rudy supported that veto.
And give the current judges time. I don't know if Kennedy would vote to overturn Roe. But I have a feeling, with O'Connor off the court, that he would vote to uphold some pretty significant state restrictions.
So a president's pro-life views do matter. Big time.
Of the three things you talk about here, the only one that I may be concerned about is guns but do you think Rudy really wants to take your guns?
Gawd, just check his long history of taking guns from legal gun owners and permit holders, calling for more federal gun laws, supporting the Brady Center, and suing gun manufacturers (in the process defining valid reasons for owning a gun as hunting and law enforcement - not self defense).
So please educate yourself about Rudy. I initially thought if I had to, I could vote for him. I no longer feel that way after finding out his long, liberal and sordid history.
And sorry, again, none of those things get to me or bother me. Even the first Bush did nothing about abortion, and he was less conservative than this Bush. While I agree that the President’s views matter, I don’t think he or she is truly able to DO anything about it. I’d be happy with less abortions, but I’m also a realist.
Good Luck with the Duncan Hunter thing. I was wondering if his son would like to be pinged to this thread; would love to have his thoughts and Dad’s thoughts on this whole thread.
