34 years EV, 34 Years of Roe V. Wade. Reagan’s Platform was in 1979, that’s 26 Years. We have had control of both the Leglistlative and Executive branch a few times in there.
Where is the bill, where is HLA?
Repeating the same actions and expecting different results in the same conditions?
Not very smart.
I know there are those in the Pro Life movement who will accept nothing but absolute victory. HLA or nothing. That’s noble, but hardly realistic. Again those babies need our help, not our ego. Thar won’t care how we won, just that we did.
Wrong. It became part of the Republican platform in 1984. And it hasn't been adhered to. That's the problem.
The HLA has become nothing more than an excuse for cynical, unprincipled politicians to do nothing.
Every sworn officer of the United States takes an oath to protect and defend the Constitution. And the Fifth and Fourteenth Amendments already protect the lives of innocent persons.
Do you believe, as the Reagan pro-life plank asserts, that babies in the womb are PERSONS? Even Justice Blackmun, in the majority decision in Roe, admitted that if they were, they are protected by the Fourteenth Amendment.
Make the pro-aborts get their own constitutional amendment if they want to eliminate the Fifth and the Fourteenth Amendments - and repeal the Preamble which describes the very purpose of the document.
"We the People of the United States, in Order to form a more perfect Union, establish Justice, insure domestic Tranquility, provide for the common defense, promote the general Welfare, and secure the Blessings of Liberty to ourselves and our Posterity, do ordain and establish this Constitution for the United States of America.
Rest assured, the practice of abortion violates EVERY clause of the above paragraph.
Posterity, or, to describe it more clearly for those in Rio Linda, those not yet born, have the same right to the Blessings of Liberty that you do.
There you go with your damned logic, again. Don't you realize we just want to castigate old Grandpa Fred Thompson, not get a conservative elected president who will pick justices like Thomas and Roberts and Alito?! If ol' Fred from Klantucky won't swear up and down to be for HLA, even though it's a pipe dream, well, we don't want him!
Classic definition of insanity.
