Chris Smith, RINO < /s>
What is McCain’s plan to stop the murder of 1.3 million unborn Americans every year?
1. WhoTF is he?
2. Who appointed him expert\
3. I wasn’t waiting on his comments to decide to support mccain (I never will)
Most of the time, McCain has taken the pro-life side.
So do lots of people. How does that make him president?
That is one of the main reasons I am Voting Jon McCain 2008!

But wait, I don’t agree with everything Senator McCain stands for on campaign finance and immigration. I also don’t personally like him. Therefore, I will stay home and allow pro-abortion, anti-American communists to be president instead. Now applaud me for being so “principled.” /sarc
His pro-life record is pretty good. An important exception is his support for taxpayer funding of fetal stem cell research.
I am also worried by some of his comments on SCOTUS appointments. If he refuses to support strong pro-life justices like Alito, that might end up with appointment of more Souters and Kennedys.
Also, his gang of 16 games with the Democrats were not a good sign.
Is he willing to take the kind of demonization from the press and the Democrats that are part of the judicial nomination process? Or will he go along to get along as he has in the past?
Smith is a pro-abortion communist!!! Stop McCain!!! AAAAAAAAAAHHH!!!!
What if abortion causes Global Warming? What will John do?
Chris Smith has street cred with anybody familiar with the pro life movement. Basically if somebody doesn’t know who Chris Smith is or what he has done for the pro life movement, then they aren’t part of the movement.
I don’t care what all these GOP insiders say to try to convince us that McCain is true conservative.
How about if they try to convince McCain that he should renounce his despicable global warming bill? That would go a long way to helping convince conservatives that he is really on our side.

**”He is pro-life in his heart of hearts, in my opinion,” Smith told the Washington Times. **
BTTT!
Freep-mail me to get on or off my pro-life and Catholic List:
Please ping me to note-worthy Pro-Life or Catholic threads, or other threads of interest.
isn't that common knowledge?
You know what, Mr. Smith?
I can SAY all day that someone supported something.
My saying it doesn’t make it so.
If, at this point, McCain supporters are still having to convince us about McCain’s beliefs on an issue so fundamental, then he is in bad shape.
Ever notice how it’s always someone else telling us what John McCain believes?
