I am not a Romneybot in the least.

I didn't say you were.

He was my next to the last choice.

IMO, as a conservative, he should not be a choice *at all*.

But it is what it is.

yup.

It will either be Romney or Obama.

A distinction without a difference.

I have read the bill.I don’t doubt that Reagan had regrets when he signed it into law and then saw how it was abused. But it really isn’t a “scurrilous charge” nor is it untrue.

It is not untrue - But it is scurrilous to lead the uninformed reader to believe that Reagan was ever Pro-Choice. Without qualifying your statement, declaring that 'Reagan signed a pro-abortion bill' leaves the reader to infer exactly that. And it offends me greatly.

At one time Reagan said abortion wasn’t his central focus (not verbatim but I will find the exact quote if you need it).

So?

The point being, the subject of this thread is about a possible charge from Allred about how Romney discouraged a parishoner from abortion. Perhaps Romney’s personal beliefs on the subject aren’t that far off base.

See my originating post for comment:

But many liberals assuage their conscience with this despicable sort of demarcation - Being personally Pro-Life, but actively promoting pro-choice positions publicly. I find this to be even more abhorrent than someone who is completely pro-choice, as the personal conviction should be guiding the public action.

I heard an interview with Michael Reagan a couple of months ago. He said one thing that has stuck with me...”We weren’t looking for RR when we found him.”

I was.

I don’t think Romney is another Reagan. Those are pretty large boots to fill. Sadly I fear we may not have another. The times are very different.

Nope. Not another Reagan. Probably and predictably another FDR.

My prayer is that Romney can beat Obama. I know for a fact what he is and represents.

Replacing one liberal with another will solve nothing, and IMO, will only embarrass you eventually... and do irreparable damage to Conservatism as he is allowed to claim the mantle.

(BTW, your down ticket votes are very important.)

I know : )

This thread has drifted has so far away from the original topic it’s pretty unbelievable.

I don’t care who you vote (or not) for. Trust me.

The subject was...Gloria Allred had some big October surprise about Romney encouraging a woman not to abort.

I actually make a conscience effort to stay away from threads of this sort.

My bad...
