That's good to hear.
Now imagine if the President stood in front of the camera and responded to them by pointing out that choice, that fetal stem cells aren't the only game in town, and smacked them upside the head for pushing the unnecessary fatal fetal option.
I certainly wish he would.
Bush’s stand on life not only is the right thing to do and the constitutional thing to do, but it has been very advantageous politically.
Except in the abortion centers of the country like San Francisco or Madison or NYC and the like, pro-life politicians all did extremely well in the 2000, 2002, and 2004 elections. 2006 was a setback, but I don’t think abortion had anything to do with the Democrat victory. In fact most winning Democrats like Casey ran as pro-lifers, or minimized their pro-abortion positions.
Bush has not communicated his views very well, which is a pity, because it would not only have helped to educate the county, it would have improved his own ratings. Frankly, I think Karl Rove still hasn’t figured this out. He seems to have a blind spot in this area, so it’s a good thing that Bush’s own pro-life convictions are so strong, or he’d probably have been argued out of them.
