Perry said he believes abortion should be legal in cases involving rape or incest. That’s not a pro-life position. Abortion is abortion and it is wrong. The child is innocent of the act and deserves life. RINO Mitt Perry doesn’t think so and he believes its life should be terminated.

NO true Christian could take that position. Have you done any research on Perry’s association with the Muslims? That’s the one that sealed it for me. It’s no to Perry. We have one Muslim apologist in the White House we don’t need another.

Americans are slightly less favorable to abortion every year. That's been a long, downhill trend for some time. What they are in favor of, by large margins, is exceptions for rape and incest. <1%, but a highly visible percentage.

So

The best way, right now, to save the >99% of abortion victims is to get Supreme Court justices in power sooner than later, and to favor policies and politicians that incrementally change American's viewpoints to make abortion socially unacceptable. Obama's nominees in a second term could stretch their advantage, and keep abortion legal for another 20 years over what a Perry nominees would, for that 99%.

The strategically smart thing to do is save as many as you can, as soon as you can, given the prevailing American sentiment. Being a absolutist hold-out might stoke your ego, but it's not a functional path to saving anyone. It plays into the hands of people that want to keep all abortion legal.
