Not the same thing at all. If I own stock in the company and thus profit from abortion, and claim I'm pro-life, and people repeatedly bring it up throughout my career but I don't divest myself, then I think that raises some questions about whether I'm sincere in my stated beliefs.

But Frist did say he would not want to make abortion illegal. By all definitions, that's not a pro-life stance. And if he's had a change of heart, why does he own more than $5 million in a stock that allows him to profit directly from abortions?

I'm pretty certain some of the companies I own stock in are somehow linked to HCA somehow. Look at that list that was provided in an earlier post. I am not about to dump my stocks.

The hospital is not an abortion clinic. You are either clueless or dishonest to insinuate he is getting profit "directly from abortions." In fact this article you posted doesn't even have evidence that abortions are performed there at all or if they are, what numbers they are performed and the circumstances.

Until you have some evidence to back up what you are saying, stop insulting our intelligence, please.

Let's apply the same logic to you - why are you still a registered Democrat?

From your homepage:
Catholic, pro-life. I'm a registered Democrat (ed., the party of abortion on demand), but I never vote Democratic. Hey, you can't go along with the party on everything!
