>>>>>Oh no, we are going back to the outdated quote duel? And then maybe the dueling youtube clips next? I think we've gone past that already, don't you? But one good outdated quote, deserves another....

Outdated? Far from it. Fact. Fred has been a life long conservative. As far as I can tell, Fred has always been pro-life, while calling the abortion issue a states rights issue. Not an issue for the federal govt. Until we cosnervatives can get a Constitutional amendment passed into law outlawing most abortions, ending Roe v Wade as the policy of the US govt is the best alternative we pro-lifers can hope for.

Romney is a recent convert to a pro-life position. It appears to many of us, that Romney's change of heart is nothing but more political expediency to advance his personal agenda in politics. It leaves his integrity open to many questions. You can continue giving Romney a complete pass on his 30+ years of support for Roe v Wade and abortion on demand. This conservative will not.

More of Fred`s 100% pro-life Senate voting record.

ABORTIONS IN OVERSEAS MILITARY HOSPITALS. S2057 (roll call vote 176). Murray (D-WA) amendment to repeal current law prohibiting overseas U.S. military hospitals and medical facilities from performing privately funded abortions for U.S. service members and their dependents. Rejected 44-49, June 25, 1998. Fred opposed the amendment.

PARTIAL BIRTH ABORTION. HR1122 (roll call vote 277). Passage, over President Clinton's October 10, 1997, veto, of the bill to ban a certain late-term abortion procedure, in which the physician partially delivers the fetus before completing the abortion. Rejected 64-36, September 18, 1998. A two-thirds majority of those present and voting (67 in this case) of both houses is required to override a veto. Fred supported the legislation.

TRANSPORTING MINORS FOR ABORTION. S1645 (roll call vote 282). Motion to invoke cloture (thus limiting debate) on the substitute amendment to the bill that would make it a federal crime for anyone other than a parent to transport a minor across state lines with the intent to obtain an abortion. Motion rejected 54-45, September 22, 1998. Three-fifths of the total Senate (60) is required to invoke cloture. Fred supported the cloture motion.

Prohibit Drugs to Induce Abortion, HR 1906 (Roll Call Vote No. 173). June 8, 1999 - Coburn (R-OK) amendment to prohibit the use of any funding for the Food and Drug Administration to test, develop, or approve any drugs for the chemical inducement of abortion. Amendment adopted 217-214, 8 June 1999. Fred supported the amendment.

Nice votes from the 90's, but what have you done for me lately? Where's the letter from the pro-life and pro-family groups thanking your candidate for all of his recent work on behalf of the cause in this decade?

Until we cosnervatives can get a Constitutional amendment passed into law outlawing most abortions, ending Roe v Wade as the policy of the US govt is the best alternative we pro-lifers can hope for.

Right, but my candidate supports the ban on abortion after the overturn of Roe v. Wade, and yours, apparently, says he does not (see video linked in post #43). Do you see any other analysis of that video?
