Why would social conservatives vote for a man who opposes the Federal Marriage Amendment and criminalizing abortion?

You believe women should be arrested for having an abortion?

“Why would conservatives support a man who opposes the FMA?”

Why would conservatives support Mitt Romney who, as governor of Massachusetts, did more to promote gay marriage than anyone in America by acquiescing in the Mass Supreme Court ruling rather than refusing to implement it. Without Romney’s actions in support of it (by ordering the Clerks of Court to issue gay marriage licenses, when he was not required to do so), there would be no gay marriage in Massachusetts today.

Now he has the temerity to say he is the only one who is pro-marriage because he supports a “pie in the sky” Amendment. His actions in large part caused the problem. Now he advances a “solution” with no chance of success and he is the hero of traditional conservatives?? It is funny, but sad at the same time, because he is tricking some ill informed people into believing him.

Family group: Mitt Romney chose ‘gay’ marriage (Leadership?)

>>>You believe women should be arrested for having an abortion?<<<

Are you or are you not pro-life?

If a fetus is a living human-being, aborting that fetus is murder. Period.

If a fetus isn’t a living human-being, keep abortion legal. There’s nothing sacred about it if it isn’t human life.

I don’t see where the ambiguity is. If you’re really pro-life, you treat an abortion just like any other murder. If you’re not, keep abortion legal, as it’s not harming anyone, anyway. What’s the distinction between a woman who kills her child inside of her and a woman who waits until the day that child is born?
