I’m not aware of anything Byrd has said or done that is pro-life. At best, he may have shied away from BCBS (Birth-Canal Brain-Suctioning).
I’ve read several pieces about Byrd’s concern for socially conservative issues. It’s probably just political cover for the voters in WV.
Among Dems I had hoped there might be one or two who would stand up for life when it was absolutely necessary; Landrieu and Pryor have to answer to a base where pro-life matters. This issue seems less divisive in PA and Casey is obviously not the man that his father was.
As I mentioned, I really don’t know how “cognitive” Senator Byrd even is. His votes may be run through his Legislative Office?
The last time I saw him he was not looking so good.
