McCain-Feingold.

Support for the destruction of humans at the embryonic stage for the purposes of Mengele-like “scientific” experimentation.

Support for experimentation on the body parts of aborted babies.

Support for Title X Planned Barrenhood funding:

Pro-Abort John McCain voted HHS funds for Title X and Medicaid - funding Planned Parenthood,

selected surgical abortion, chemical abortion, and usurpation of parental authority:

HR 3010 - HHS Appropriations Bill included:
- Tens of millions of federal dollars for Planned Parenthood (Title X and Medicaid)
- Selected Medicaid surgical abortions (rape, incest, “life” of mother)
- Title X and Medicaid chemical birth control abortions
- Title X and Medicaid birth control for unmarried adults
- Title X and Medicaid birth control for unmarried adolescents, even if their parents object to the federal government giving their minor child hormonal drugs and devices with which to fornicate.

“McCain (R-AZ), Yea”

I’m sure I could come up with more.

Like his close political alliance with pro-aborts in both parties, and his enmity with pro-life conservatives.

Rick Santorum has revealed how McCain’s modus operandi for years has been to block pro-life, pro-family legislation in the Senate, in concert with his good friends the Democrats and the leftwing Republicans.

Former Pennsylvania Senator Rick Santorum has attacked Republican presidential candidate Senator John McCain of Arizona for hindering social conservative issues, arguing that McCain is a poor choice to lead the effort to overturn Roe v. Wade.

Speaking to radio host Mark Levine on Levine’s Thursday night radio show, Senator Santorum cited Senator McCain’s compromises in congressional debates about Supreme Court nominations as evidence the Arizona politician was not a strong pro-life candidate.

Santorum, who is now a fellow at the Ethics and Public Policy Center, said of McCain, “this is not a guy who would give me a lot of confidence that he would appoint the judges who are necessary on the court to overturn Roe v. Wade, who would be strict constructionist judges.”

McCain’s largely pro-life record, Santorum claimed, concealed other problems, such as McCain’s support for embryonic stem cell research and his vote against a Federal Marriage Amendment.

Further, Santorum alleged that during his tenure in the Senate McCain did not provide the necessary support to discuss and vote on social conservative issues on the Senate floor.

Santorum disclosed what happened behind the scenes when he held meetings to gather votes for proposed legislation, telling Levine, “That discussion is held in private, where you’re jostling and jockeying to get your legislation into the queue so that you can have your time on the floor to get something done.”

“And I can tell you, when social-conservative issues were ever raised — whether it was marriage or abortion or a whole host of other issues — there were always the moderates who said ‘no, no, no, we can’t: they’re divisive, divisive, divisive.’ And more often than not, John McCain was . . . with them” in preventing votes on such issues.

Interesting blog spot. But I was hoping for a link to the actual votes you were concerned with. Interpretations done with an agenda behind them aren't all that convincing.

Thanks for the info anyway.
