A flagrantly and shamefully dishonest thread has been posted by aMorePerfectUnion for the purpose of duping careless readers into believing that Mitt Romney wants to legalize abortion. In fact, Mitt supports the idea of allowing states to criminalize abortion (abortion is already legal). That's the same position taken by just about every other Republican candidate for president including former abortion lobbyist Fred Thompson.
Bump
Call the bigots over for a dose of truth.
BTTT
Do you always stoop to ridiculous leftwing kook type name-calling to bolster your arguement?
Tom Tancredo supports a constitutional amendment that would protect the right to life. Which of the other candidates have taken as strong a stand? Hiding behind the "state's rights" argument is immoral. If abortion is murder, then it's murder in all 50 states.
Only the Kama Sutra has more positions.
Another vanity.
True. But I'm afraid this thread will be pulled because it is a vanity.
BARF ALERT
with this Romney video:
Romney: Let states decide abortion laws
The God-given right to life is alienable to Romney.
But I'll stick with Thomas Jefferson and the rest of the founders in my belief that the right to life is God-given and therefore unalienable, and in fact is the primary reason for the existence of human government in the first place:
"We hold these truths to be self-evident, that all men are created equal, that they are endowed by their Creator with certain unalienable Rights, that among these are Life, Liberty and the pursuit of Happiness. — That to secure these rights, Governments are instituted among Men...
If Roe v. Wade is reversed and the decision to outlaw abortion goes back to the states, which states would actually outlaw it? It is my impression that most (but not all) states would choose to keep abortion legal, although possibly restriction on late term abortions.
Prior to the passage of Roe through the Blackmoon court abortion was legally available in every state to protect a woman’s life. Roe and Doe v Bolton was societal engineering not merely ignoring the aliveness of the unborn but denying it mattered a whit to the liberal choice. Roe will not be stopped until the personhood of alive sensing unborn children isprotect under the Constitution as already provide by current amendments.
Are you saying that is true. If so it big news to me.
Yes
"We hold these truths to be self-evident, that all men are created equal, that they are endowed by their Creator with certain unalienable Rights, that among these are Life, Liberty and the pursuit of Happiness. — That to secure these rights, Governments are instituted among Men..."
Typically, when the same person generates the first three posts to a thread, the thread is not worth noting and probably not correct.
