Surprised an old Republican a few weeks back, when I mentioned that I was an Obama supporter and I was also pro-life. His disbelief moved me to justify my politics. I realized as I talked to him, that there is more than one way to reduce abortion rates. We can either make abortion illegal or we can work to make abortion unnecessary. Republicans would love to make abortion illegal. Obama is doing everything he can to make abortions unnecessary.
Conservatives have gotten a lot of mileage out of their pro-life platform. I contend that we Dems can claim the same moral high ground. Actually our policies are truly more pro-life than the Repubs. We have always supported the social programs that help families to survive. Repubs are hell bent on cutting support. So lets spread the word We are pro-life as well as pro-choice. Our way is more effective and it doesn't trample the rights of women.
