Gravitymaster 0 #103 August 24, 2012 QuoteAbout This BlogArchiveE-MailRSSSend Print | Text My Pro-Life Pledge By Mitt Romney June 18, 2011 12:50 P.M. Comments110 I am pro-life and believe that abortion should be limited to only instances of rape, incest, or to save the life of the mother. I support the reversal of Roe v. Wade, because it is bad law and bad medicine. Roe was a misguided ruling that was a result of a small group of activist federal judges legislating from the bench. I support the Hyde Amendment, which broadly bars the use of federal funds for abortions. And as president, I will support efforts to prohibit federal funding for any organization like Planned Parenthood, which primarily performs abortions or offers abortion-related services. I will reinstate the Mexico City Policy to ensure that nongovernmental organizations that receive funding from America refrain from performing or promoting abortion services, as a method of family planning, in other countries. This includes ending American funding for any United Nations or other foreign assistance program that promotes or performs abortions on women around the world. I will advocate for and support a Pain-Capable Unborn Child Protection Act to protect unborn children who are capable of feeling pain from abortion. And perhaps most importantly, I will only appoint judges who adhere to the Constitution and the laws as they are written, not as they want them to be written. As much as I share the goals of the Susan B. Anthony List, its well-meaning pledge is overly broad and would have unintended consequences. That is why I could not sign it. It is one thing to end federal funding for an organization like Planned Parenthood; it is entirely another to end all federal funding for thousands of hospitals across America. That is precisely what the pledge would demand and require of a president who signed it. The pledge also unduly burdens a president’s ability to appoint the most qualified individuals to a broad array of key positions in the federal government. I would expect every one of my appointees to carry out my policies on abortion and every other issue, irrespective of their personal views. If I have the opportunity to serve as our nation’s next president, I commit to doing everything in my power to cultivate, promote, and support a culture of life in America.

tkhayes 348 #104 August 24, 2012 No I'm not being spun by the 'Obama ads" that you posted. I did my homework. I read the bills. Did you? If you have not, then you have not much more to say. Or did you just google search the bills for the words "Legitimate rape" and come up empty.... Loads of bills have massive consequences that are not written into them. The GOP wants the sanctity of life bill passed. It grants personhood civil rights to a sperm and an egg, even though 30+% of those will never result in a pregnancy. There are massive dire social and economic consequences to granting such rights, the cost which will be staggering. Attorneys appointed by the courts to defend said zygote. prosecutions of anyone who causes or even tries to cause harm to said zygote. defining the 'harm' is NOT in the bill, since it is really only meant to cover abortion, but could also include miscarriage, x-rays, drugs (including prescription) again, shall I go on? You wanted evidence of the Republicans supporting the radical stances of an idiot named Akin, and I provided it. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
tkhayes 348 #105 August 24, 2012 From Ryan's website: http://paulryan.house.gov/news/documentprint.aspx?DocumentID=193837 QuotePersonally, I believe that life begins at conception, and it is for that reason that I feel we need to protect that life as we would protect other children. http://paulryan.house.gov/news/documentprint.aspx?DocumentID=247342 QuotePaul Ryan cosponsored and voted in favor of legislation that would prevent people, including abusive boyfriends, from transporting young girls.... But fails to say anything about whether or not the pregnancy might have been CAUSED by abusive boyfriends.....and further restricts abortion rights. http://paulryan.house.gov/news/documentsingle.aspx?DocumentID=207539A long read but basically he disagrees with the courts even though the Courts, doing their job, decided that unborn fetuses do not attain the same rights as other people. More damaging beliefs that will fundamentally hurt society if enacted. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

The Sanctity of Human Life act http://www.govtrack.us/congress/bills/112/hr212 which would make any abortion illegal as the 'life' would have to be preserved. http://www.govtrack.us/congress/bills/111/hr5276 A bill further limiting Women's rights extreme enough for you - shall i go on? You are allowing yourself to be spun again. http://factcheck.org/2012/08/another-abortion-falsehood-from-obamas-truth-team/ http://www.breitbart.com/Big-Government/2012/08/23/President-Infanticide-Dem-Plank-Partial-Birth The Factcheck statement is so weasel worded that even you must have noticed the spin.
