I agree with you that the author most likely has the wrong motives, but facts are stubborn things. That is my point.

Its lost on me, because I don’t use a single issue ‘litmus test’ when picking a President. Its a tad more complicated.

Besides which, President’s don’t have the power to change the national view on abortion, let alone legislate it out of existence. If that was the case, Reagan would have done so in the 1980’s.

So in the real world, it simply doesn’t matter. You want it changed, you have to change congress to your viewpoint.

How’s that going?

All I can say to you is this: If you have no strong convictions on any issue and just want a President with an “R”, then Mitt’s a ggod choice.

The article is about honesty or lack thereof.

Do you not consider honesty an important thing when evaluating a politician's stated positions and campaign promises?
