When Reagan was Governor of CA he signed what is called in all the articles at the time “the most liberal abortion policy in the country”. Granted, today it looks like child’s play, but there’s no doubt that it opened the door to where we are today. Ditto amnesty.

You are right, Peach. He did. He was considered a liberal, by any stretch of the imagination, when he was governor. I know, I lived in CA and I voted for him both terms as governor as well as POTUS.

He became much more conservative when he was POTUS and was representing the entire nation instead of liberal California.

NYC is a liberal bastion in this country as well. I don't believe a conservative could be elected there any more than in California.. then or now.

And that is relevant why? Do you think Rudy will become pro-life if we just vote him president? Or do you think being pro-abortion is OK because Reagan voted for a bill once?

What is your point?

THAT is so out of context, it's misleading and, I think, it's intentional.

In 1967, Gov. Reagan signed an abortion law legalizing the procedure in cases where a woman’s mental as well as physical health was at risk.

Sadly, the baby killers found that they could get Doctors everywhere to falsely attest that the Mother's health was, indeed, in danger. The bill did not define "health".

Reagan then, AFTER being elected President, penned his famous "Abortion and the Conscience of the Nation".

I hope this clarifies for you your misconception.

:O)

Run, FRED, run!
