no she isn't.

She doesn't think the government should be involved in abortion. She doesn't believe the government should have any say in banning it nor accepting it.

that's LIBERTARIAN. And it's NOT Pro-Abortion in any sense.....

I really like Condi for these reasons and more... .

It's not the government's decision.

It's mine. I'll don my flame retardant suit here.

Yeah, and Stephen Douglas and the other anti-abolitionists were not "pro-slavery" in any sense, they merely believe that the government should have no say in banning slavery or accepting slavery. They thought that whether or not to have slaves is a decision for each individual, and if someone chose to have slaves, the government should butt out. Using post-1973 terminology, the anti-abolitionists were "pro-choice" on slavery, since they recognized a slavemaster's right to choose.

Abortion kills an innocent human life. Saying that the government has no right to ban abortion is the same as saying that the government has no right to ban infanticide, fatricide, matricide, or any other type of murder. Being "pro-choice" on abortion is not being libertarian, it is being disrespectful of the dignity inherent in every human being and a violation of God's Commandment not to commit murder.
