This is preposterous. Here’s the transcript of the Morgan/Cain conversation:

http://www.salon.com/2011/10/20/herman_cains_self_inflicted_abortion_problem/singleton/

Cain’s “choice” comment was NOT referring to ABORTION, but rather whether a victim of rape should rear the child.

MORGAN: But you’ve had children, grandchildren. If one of your female children, grandchildren was raped, you would honestly want her to bring up that baby as her own?

CAIN: You’re mixing two things here, Piers?

MORGAN: Why?

CAIN: You’re mixing –

MORGAN: That’s what it comes down to.

CAIN: No, it comes down to it’s not the government’s role or anybody else’s role to make that decision. Secondly, if you look at the statistical incidents, you’re not talking about that big a number. So what I’m saying is it ultimately gets down to a choice that that family or that mother has to make.

You are actually agreeing with him. Look at Morgan’s question, he was asking about ‘bringing the baby up’, not aborting the baby.

People are being manipulated.. they are being told what was said in the headline or first sentence of the article, not actually digging in and logically reading what was said.

Look at it again from a old FReeper media skeptic like we used to have here. What specifically did Morgan ask, what did Cain respond? (not what we are told he asked and what we are told he responded to)..

Focus only on the parenthetical (actual quotes for those in Rio Linda), not the ‘editorialized’ comments in between.

Cain’s last line is not pro-life...it’s pro-choice...
