Al Gore’s Relentless Promotion of Abortion
By Carol Tobias, NRL PAC Director
Although there are many pro-life Democrats, the national Democratic Party has once again selected a presidential candidate who believes there should be absolutely no restrictions on abortion and would offer no protection for unborn children who are deemed “unwanted.” In the case of Vice President Al Gore, compounding this unfortunate reality is that early in his career Gore voted much differently. As a member of the United State House of Representatives from 1977 to 1984, Gore compiled an 84% pro-life voting record. He also responded to many constituents with letters that appeared to be pro-life.
However, after being elected to the Senate in 1984, Gore switched his position. He quickly began to assemble a strongly pro-abortion voting record.

I trust the Director for the National Right to Life PAC when she said Gore complied a strongly pro-abortion voting record in the U.S. Senate since 1984 . I'm glad she agrees with MY previously stated FACT that Gore was a pro-abortion candidate in 1988 when Perry supported him, and DISPROVES your claim that "Gore was pro life until becoming VP"[in 1993]
FreeReign is right, are you having trouble reading your OWN articles?

Excerpt from Eagle Eye's own link says: "However, after being elected to the Senate in 1984, Gore switched his position. He quickly began to assemble a strongly pro-abortion voting record."
Looks like Billy and the NRL director are in agreement. This is not the first time I've seen someone post a link that contradicts their own position. It really boggles my mind how that can happen.
I can't believe we are arguing about whether Gore was a conservative democrat in 1988. When you look at the sky is it red? Purple? Enough of this. Now you can admit you are wrong, there is no shame in that (or don't, just put a sock in it).
Rick was a democrat then and backed a liberal for President, end of story whether you can admit it to yourself or not. I don't have a problem backing a former democrat if they've really changed. Don't expect to get away with posting falsehoods. Someone will call you out for it, each and every time.
Now let's focus on something more important, his mediocre reign as Governor and support for in-state tuition for illegal immigrants. I'd say he hasn't changed much at all. He's another Republicrat through and through.
