Mary Ann Glendon is the best of all. Refused to attend the Notre Dame graduation in 2009, where she was to be awarded their "Laetare" medal (whiche she declined), because she refused to be on the same platform as Obama.
She's a very distinguished law professor at Harvard. No don't hold Harvard against her, either. She's one of the top lawyers who's bringing the 43 lawsuits against Obamacare/HHS. She's been the faculty advisor to the Student Prolife group at Harvard for decades. She is tough, principled, and smart as they come.
I would certainly confirm the pro-life, Catholic orthodoxy of Mary Ann Glendon.
Mitt Romney has been telling pro-life organizations recently that he supports their positions. No doubt he or his handlers gave the same assurances to these former Ambassadors to the Vatican.
The only problem is, Romney never hesitates to lie about his beliefs. And his record as a politician is pro-abortion. In fact, he was the first politician to sign off on tax-payer funded abortions, just as he was the first to sign off on gay marriage.
I think Mary Ann Glendon is simply taking his assurances at face value. But can he be trusted to keep his word? The record suggests not.
