In Kansas, the ALL types OPPOSED “Parental Consent” legislation only because the NRLC affiliates supported that Legislation.
The ALL local affiliates even sat AT THE SAME TABLE with Abortionist George Tiller, as witnesses and spokespersons AGAINST said legislation.
The “purist” ALL types said they wanted Parental Notification instead since “no one has the right to give consent to abortion”.
They were clearly dishonest in that position, as ALL had supported IDENTICAL legislation in other States! Operation Rescue, ALL and the purest groups are legally and politically incompetent.
They are fools who do not know how to get any legislation passed and fools who do not know how to get any politician elected.
The Hyde Amendment has saved more lives than any thing else in history, and NRLC has been VERY effective in passing and enforcing the Hyde Amendment for decades.
The public does not want a complete ban on abortion, but the public WOULD support a ban on all abortions except those in cases of Rape, Incest and actual threat to the mothers life.
ALL and the purists will not support such legislation.
Even though such legislation would outlaw 95% of the abortions performed and WOULD have majority support of the voters. They say “No compromise, no exceptions” which means:
NOTHING HAPPENS!
I also remember Nellie Gray and Judy Brown and the March for Life and ALL groups bashing RONALD REAGAN since a few of his cabinet members were not pro-life. They did this in the very year that George H.W. BUSH took over for Ronald Reagan, during that March for Life, in their OFFICIAL publications!
Again, you are politically incompetentent if you do not accept the expertise of the National Right to Life Committee!
Added to my "potential Romney Republican bumper sticker" file.
Not only to I not "accept the expertise of the National Right to Life Committee," I think they've become nothing but a bunch of unprincipled losers.
The Dems laugh at them on a regular basis. Because they know full well that they are absolutely no threat to them or abortion on demand.
Let me ask you: How much money do you think Romney supporter and NRTL lawyer James Bopp has helped funnel to NRTL from Romney and his well-heeled friends in the last five years?
They have no expertise, and their OFFICIAL POSITION is one of opposing all legislation that would actually stop any given abortion.
By the way, I can spell "incompetent".
When you throw out broad unfounded insults, try to do so less illiterately.
I would rather be faithful to the Constitution and be “politically incompetentent” than support a man who forces CAtholic hospitals to perform abortions which they believe to be murder, when there is a solid pro-life candidate running against him. And there is, in this primary, which is where we’re still at in this process.
If this was the general election my response might be different. But this is the primary election, and anybody who is pro-life should be rallying around Newt Gingrich at this point.
I’m sick of the “politically competent” people who break laws regarding proportional delegates, invent new requirements without due process so that addresses have to be listed for everybody but Romney and Ron Paul, miscount votes in Iowa and Maryland, call a direct win a tie instead, try the Chicago way in Missouri so they can’t even have their caucus, etc in order to screw the primary voters. If I wanted crap like that I’d vote democrat. The R’s have no more respect for the rule of law than the race-baiters putting out a $10,000 bounty on George Zimmerman and calling for violence have. Again, if I wanted that kind of lawless thuggery, I’d vote for the Black Panthers.
You R-establishment hacks are burning all your bridges with those of us who value the rule of law, thanks to people like yourself who have argued against everything I believe in, including the US Constitution. The lawless shenanigans done to get “your guy” in as the candidate are disgusting and reveal your true colors.
I would vote for worms from my trash if that’s what it took to vote against Obama, but I have a sinking feeling that this is exactly what I will be stuck voting for this year in the general unless real conservatives solidify behind Gingrich, and exactly the stench I’ll be surrounded by as I climb in next to bedfellows who disgust me to my very core.
You are forever tainted with a vote for Romney! That blood does NOT wash out, stained forever/eternity! I bet Romney bought them off like he does with everything else. Satan's own little minion - the LYING MITT and now satan has the National RTL movement in his pocket.
Again, you are politically incompetentent if you do not accept the expertise of the National Right to Life Committee!
Their expertise is from the DEVIL! Don't you even attempt to tell me to accept EVIL - EVER!! with your eternally blood stained hands!
It's expertise at what? Drumming up donations from suckers or selling its "principles" down the river?
Anybody who actually believes Romney as President would act in a significantly pro-life way is the one who is "politically incompetent."
What a ridiculous statement.
