So are you ignorant of, or simply ignoring, things like his complete blowing off of the fight for marriage, or his past comments that must be construed by any honest observer as pro-amnesty, or his “pro-life” advertising in the last election that can fairly be described as the most pro-choice pro-life ad ever aired?

I note that in his CPAC speech, just like he did at Steve King’s event in Iowa a few weeks ago, in the few seconds on both occasions that he thought it was worth even referring to the subject, he bragged about signing “pro-life” legislation.

But what exactly did he himself say about that legislation, in his own voice, on camera, in paid advertising, just last fall?

I quote:

“The bill leaves the final decision to a woman and her doctor.” — Scott Walker

Is that really “pro-life” to you?

Obviously you don’t want to believe what transpired today at CPAC. Is it your opinion that all potential candidates who went one on one with Hannity were lying ? That includes, Rand Paul, Dr. Carson, Gov. Jingal, Sen. Cruz and any I might have missed?

Regarding that ad, he was discussing a specific bill he had signed which requires ultrasound prior to abortion and will require new safety standards that would force some abortion clinics to close. Yes, that is a pro-life measure and he signed it.


MADISON, Wis. — Gov. Scott Walker quietly signed a contentious Republican bill Friday that would require women seeking abortions to undergo an ultrasound and ban doctors who lack admitting privileges at nearby hospitals from performing the procedures.

Opponents contend legislators shouldn’t force women to undergo any medical procedure and the bill will force two abortion clinics where providers lack admitting privileges to shut their doors. The law takes effect Monday. Planned Parenthood of Wisconsin and the American Civil Liberties Union filed a federal lawsuit within hours of the signing alleging the bill is unconstitutional and asking for a temporary restraining order blocking the measure.
