true pro-lifers like you and me can understand the conversion from pro-abortion to pro-life, but how do we explain the reverse? Yet that recent Mitt Romney book claims he decided to do just that during his ’94 bid to win the Massachusetts Senate.
_____________________________________________

1994 ???

No, way before that Willie Mitty was pro-abortion...

More than TWO DECADES in fact..

He supported his mothers decision to have a pro-abortion platform for her run for US Senate in 1970..

He was 25 at the time...an adult..

After one pollster opined that a pro-life position would be a political liability for a statewide race in Massachusetts, Mitt decided to cast off his Church’s “burdensome pro-life position” and embrace wholeheartedly the Roe v. Wade position that legalized abortion-on-demand for the full nine months of pregnancy.
_________________________________________________

“Mitt decided to cast off his Church’s “burdensome pro-life position”

So the Mormon CEOs in SLC have control of what Willard does ???

Plus that “position” was not pro-life..

It is no abortions EXCEPT FOR

rape, incest, health of the mother or baby, or if the bishop has told the woman that during prayer the Mormon gods said to go ahead...

Hardly a PRO-LIFE “position”

No when the Mormon gods are PRO-ABORTION errr PRO-CHOICE...

He had been embracing abortion since before Roe V Wade...

at least back to 1970 THREE YEARS before abortion was LEGAL in the US...

we are going to throw the election “shoeless joe jackson” style it appears.

I can’t believe we are not united to defeat Obama.

Yes, a letter from one of the major pro-life organizations.

Did other endorsements of Romney warrant breaking news?

Breaking news??

I was thinking the same thing. I guess we can start putting anti-obama things in breaking news now even if they aren’t breaking news?

I am not able, by my religious beliefs, to support a pro-abortion, pro-gay marriage liberal. It would be disobedience to God.

It’s a position letter released by one of the nation’s major pro-life organizations. No different than any other major group announcing their support or lack thereof for Romney.

Just because it’s sort of anti-Romney doesn’t mean it isn’t major news

That's a false flag. There is an abundance of threads and resources on FR where this is argued ad naseum. IMO (and I am not alone or even in the minority for that matter) there is no lesser evil here. While 99% Obamao might govern 1% better than 100% Obamao, the permanent marginalization the Conservative movement more than offsets that paltry 1%. If you are so inclined, spare the "we need to keep the pressure on Romney to act Conservative" BS, Willard HATES Conservatives. Lets take the Senate and bump the House margin in 2012, 2016 or bust for the WH (no matter who is in it) beginning November 2012.

Like David, when confronted by God through Nathan for adultery and murder, put his life at the mercy of God for judgment. David’s firstborn son with Bathsheba, was called home after one week. His second son with Bathsheba was Solomon, the wisest man who ever lived and even though not the heir, became king.

America needs to follow David, and finally do what is right, not convenient.

I agree. Do what’s right.

I’m also reminded of Abraham’s nephew Lot looking on the good pasturage in the lowland plains and going to live in the cities of the plains.

Sodom and Gomorrah seemed inviting, but God’s man Abraham, resisted the ease of the plains, the sell-out of principle, the softness of living, and stayed in the rugged country of crags, mountains, difficulty and hardship.

He even had to save his nephew from marauders who frequented the plains.

And he had to plead for Lot’s life when God determined to destroy the cities of the plains for their moral depravity.

Rejecting women, the men of the plains determined they would have relations with the “men” who were visiting Lot, the same angels who blinded those homosexual hedonists and forced Lot out in flight to the mountains before God destroyed the cities with fire and brimstone.

The GOP with its Ann Coulter compromise — the so-called 3rd way, focus on riches and not on morality — is actually the way to destruction. It is a broad way that leads to destruction.

With Abraham in the mountains or with Lot in the plains.

The GOP has chosen the plains.

Vote Goode Not Evil (the lesser of evils is still evil)

As long as Romney is electable, his stances on Abortion along with other conservative ideals such as gun rights or homosexual marriage do not matter.

Electability is most important.

This is what Ive been told by more than a few FR folks.

(I’m writing in Palin, screw Romney)
