I agree with you on the abortion issue. I used to be strictly an economic conservative and stayed out of the social issues. As far as I was concerned, since I am not a woman I could not get pregnant. What did I care about abortion? Then I got married to a wonderful woman and had a beautiful baby boy about 6 months ago. I don't want to sound like a wimp or anything but he's the most amazing and precious gift I could ever imagine. My view on abortion changed the moment I first saw him on the ultrasound image with his little heart beating. I still remember leaving the doctors office dumbfounded that anybody, let alone the woman carrying the baby inside her, could hurt such a little innocent creature hanging on for dear life.

"My view on abortion changed the moment I first saw him on the ultrasound image with his little heart beating. "

This is the very reason that Planned Parenthood forbids "patients" from viewing the results of the "pre-procedure sonograms" performed before every abortion baby-murder.

Bump that!....funny how much one's perspective is constantly improving with age and experience.

WIMP!

LOL, just kidding, my wife gave birth to our son on October 23 of last year, and I feel exactly the same way, wimp or not! Besides, if they wanna call me a wimp, I can still kick their a$$es! :)

I had been mildly pro-life before, but I am now more against abortion than ever before (although still probably not as pro-life as many here are). It just amazes me how the pro-abortion crowd can so easily dismiss the baby as just a fetus, even at later stages of development.. incredible.
