Like they say, you can't choose your own family, especially with your wife.
Seriously, I was the liberal and she the conservative when we met; now it's the opposite.
Finally, recall when W's statement during his first term, "...reasonable people can disagree...but..." (on abortion in general) before condemning late term abortion?
Bush always clear on abortion issue including 'late term/partial birth abortions':
*****
I will lead our nation toward a culture that values life -- the life of the elderly and the sick, the life of the young, and the life of the unborn. I know good people disagree on this issue, but surely we can agree on ways to value life by promoting adoption and parental notification, and when Congress sends me a bill against partial-birth abortion, I will sign it into law.

*****************
I know we need to ban partial-birth abortions. . . I believe banning partial-birth abortion would be a positive step toward reducing the number of abortions in America. This is an issue that’s going to require a new attitude. We’ve been battling over abortion for a long period of time. Surely this nation can come together to promote the value of life.Source: Presidential debate, Boston MA Oct 3, 2000
