I think what they are figuring is that they have either Romney or Obama. Obama is 100% pro-abortion, and barring a miracle, that will never change. He’s as far in their camp as one can get, hence his support to allow babies who survived an abortion to be left to die. Romney? Romney has done a 180 in language. His actions were pro-abortion when he was Governon. There’s a chance he could be telling the truth and/or could be held to his beliefs by the Republicans in Congress and in an effort to appeal to the conservative base he needs. There’s also a chance he might be saying the right things but won’t do them. That’s the thing. There’s a chance, and that’s more than the unborn will get with Obama. I’m certainly no cheerleader for Romney, but I’m saying what I believe their rationale to be. I still wish it was Santorum because the unborn couldn’t have had a more ardent defender.

Trouble is that the endorsement doesn't say that. It says:

“On pro-life issues, Mitt Romney and Barack Obama provide a stark contrast. As the country's most pro-abortion president, Barack Obama has pursued a radical pro-abortion agenda,” said Carol Tobias, president of National Right to Life. “It is now time for pro-life Americans to unite behind Mitt Romney. For the sake of unborn children, the disabled, and the elderly, we must win.”

Mitt Romney has taken a strong pro-life position and is committed to implementing policies to protect the unborn, the medically dependent and disabled, and the elderly. Romney opposes abortion and has called the Supreme Court's Roe v. Wade decision, "a big mistake." Romney has expressed his support of the Hyde Amendment, which prohibits the use of federal funds to pay for abortion.

Romney has also stated he believes the Obama health care law should be repealed. The Obama health care law would open the door to federal subsidies for abortion coverage and rationing of lifesaving medical care. He has also stated that, if elected, he would reinstate the Mexico City Policy, which prevents federal dollars from going to organizations that perform or promote abortion overseas.

In other words, no mention of his horrific past. No mention of a conversion of heart. Just more newspeak.

May God Have Mercy On This Country.
