“Was he supposed to flaunt the law and impose his own beliefs on the state?”
This proves mitt will do nothing to work on abortion he will always use existing law as an excuse and does not care enough to spend any political capital on the issue..
Substitute any other politician's name and a liberal issue into your statement and notice how the logic sounds exactly like it came from DU.
The President, and governors too, swears an oath to uphold the law. Mitt has always done his level best to live up to that oath.
The Morning After pill is not Mitt's fault. The law requiring Catholic hospitals to make it available is not Mitt's fault. None of that was up to him.
Mitt obeyed the law.
As a woman, I’d rather see the abortion issue be laid to rest. I don’t think you can go back on this issue, you’d set women back.
So he should disobey the law until the legislature changes it, or should he obey the law until he could get it changed in the legislature ?
People are so blinded by their preconceived notions. How long does it take to change a law ?
Please site the Massachusetts state law that allows the governor to override a law passed by the state legislature. If you cannot do that, and if you are a person of good character, you will retract this statement. (The article clearly states he supported the right of the hospitals to follow their own moral code.)
