Yesterday Mitt Romney stated that he would not be in favor of any law regarding abortion. Since the only laws that would be likely to be passed are those banning or regulating abortion, he essentially reiterates his pro-abortion position at the national level. His position on abortion has been clear to those who follow politics, but he had yet to state it so plainly for a general audience. Perhaps the most disturbing fact is that even after so obviously taking a pro-abortion stance he continues to call himself pro-life.
In the words of Tom Hoefling, "Mitt Romney has no intention of lifting one finger to stop the daily brutal slaughter of thousands of innocent, defenseless, helpless little boys and girls in this country. His every position guarantees the abortion on demand status quo. Honest observers have known this all along. Mitt Romney destroys our republican form of government with his gross judicial supremacist views, and his spurious claim that if a court says it, that’s 'the law.' He destroys the foundational moral, natural law premises of this free republic and our claim to liberty with his claim that abortion should be 'legal' if a democratic majority thinks it is okay. He doesn’t believe in God-given, unalienable rights, not even the supreme right, the right to live. He doesn’t believe in our intrinsic equality before God and the law, and disdains the explicit, imperative requirements found in the Fourteenth Amendment. Comments that defend Romney on this are shameful, especially since the man just spent an entire election season blatantly and obviously lying to the American people concerning the central moral question of our day. They are a clear signal of the extreme danger to the republic that Mitt Romney represents. Sadly, his supporters are becoming more and more like the man they are following. May God have mercy on us."
Pro-life voters have accepted candidates who compromise for long enough. It's time we voted for someone who actually shares our beliefs, not someone who occasionally pretends to, and not very well at that, in order to advance his own political ends. There is only one Tier One pro-life leader in the presidential race - Tom Hoefling.
For a new birth of freedom!
