Abortion is morally reprehensible. Abortion is also the law of the land. Our representatives are sworn to uphold the law of the land (some laws more than others apparently). If you don't like the law, change it. Rudy simply states that all life critical medical procedures should be available to all folks regardless of the ability to pay. If this includes abortion, well it is the law of the land.

And no, I'm not a Gulianni apologist.

“Rudy simply states that all life critical medical procedures should be available to all folks regardless of the ability to pay.”

(Article)
“And the Giuliani campaign noted later in the day that the former mayor would not seek to make any changes to current law, which restricts federal funding to cases of rape, incest and the life of the mother.”

Aborting a child from rape or incest is not necessarily “life critical” but you are right, the issue is public funding. (Keeping in mind that women impregnated by incest or rape have not simply been irresponsible.)
The biggest problem many Americans—not just Freepers—have with this issue & this candidate, I think, is that he is welcomed by groups like NARAL that consider abortion a “choice”—as a morbid form of birth control.

I'd like to hear him state that Planned Parenthood and their partner abortion clinics should be required by law to inform their victims that abortion is a "life critical medical procedure" in the first place. And I'm not even talking about the baby. Rudy will defend the right of abortion seekers and abortion providers to reach into my wallet and pay for this slaughter, but it's somehow beneath his impeccable moral threshhold to expect the patient to be advised of risk of death or serious injury?

This guy is evil.
