To: George W. Bush
Dear George W. Bush,

“You’re deeply in denial about Reagan’s actual record.”

You need to produce some actual evidence of that assertion.

I’ve read the actual legislation.

It is close to what most pro-lifers would like abortion law to be TODAY. Thus, it’s disingenuous to call it “pro-abort” or “pro-choice.”

On the other hand, perhaps, by your definition, Mr. Reagan WAS pro-choice, in that he accepted, in 1967, that abortion should be available in cases of rape, incest, and when a woman’s health was gravely threatened by continued pregnancy.

Of course, by that definition, you’ve just labeled most actual pro-lifers - folks who would make illegal 96+% of abortions - as “pro-choice.”

Go ahead and pretend that moderate pro-lifers - folks who would ban 96+% of abortions - are actually “pro-choice.”

Go ahead and pretend that these folks are the equivalent of folks - like Mitt Romney (at least from 1970 - 2005) - who believe that abortion should be generally legal, that it is a woman's "right."

Gosh, I come back to FR, and what do I see: Romniacs once again dissing Ronald Reagan to try and somehow elevate their liberal candidate. No different than what the Rooty-toots attempted here in recent months, and so signally failed to accomplish.
