There were 518 legal abortions in California in 1967. That number would soar to an annual average of 100,000 for the remaining years of Reagans two terms. The murder of 100,000 each year. Are you really going to try to defend that? Reagan was a great man but he made mistakes.
Your premise is flawed, and bent to represent Reagan as something he was not.
Reagan signed the bill as I stated and was mortified by the unintended consequences and became fierce supporter of the pro-life cause.
Unlike your candidate (Romney) who has always been pro-choice until a day or so ago, as demonstrated by his entire life and providing for free and low cost, no questions asked, abortions as governor.
Are you really going to continue to defend that?
Romney didn’t make a rookies mistake, he sold abortion and liberalism for 60 years.
Romney was doing all this after the 1960s, Vietnam, LBJ, the great society, Roe v Wade, Carter, the Reagan Revolution, the Cold War, the abortion wars, he was voting against Reagan, voting democrat in 1992, and fund raising for Planned parenthood, Romney was passionately promoting abortion and radical homosexual politics when George W was running for reelection and Romney was almost 60.
It's funny that we are supposed to shout from the rooftops Romney's liberal record as governor of Massachusetts while conveniently ignoring Reagan's. Romney is accused of being pro-abortion. Reagan's signature legalized abortion in California long before Roe v. Wade legalized it in the rest of the country. Romney is accused of being the father of gay marriage. Reagan signed into law the nation's first "no-fault divorce" legislation, --a tool that has destroyed more families than gay marriage could ever hope to accomplish.
Yet Reagan went on to become as President the standard-bearer of conservatism. You suggest possibly Romney could do the same and people here scream preposterous!
I'm disliking Romney less and less watching him take the fight to Obama and "get in their faces". I have a good feeling that I'm going to find myself pleasantly surprised by Romney's presidency.
