Abortion is the one that gets everyone twisted up. Some want a Federal level amendment to prohibit abortion. But that is only one moral view. Some think the states, and ultimately, the people themselves should decide on abortion, not have it legislated from the judicial branch.
At the state level it can be corrected much more easily than at the Federal level. It's just the way things work. It's easier to modify a law at the state level than it is at the Federal all-encompassing level.
Now, we, as conservatives, oppse abortion, period. But we are not the voice of ALL the people and until that voice is heard at the ballot box, there can be no determination. OUR job is to coerce, cajole, and otherwise convince the opposition that the right way is to protect life.
But we can't force it on anyone.
