Does anyone know what the proper conservative position on abortion is?

Some conservatives say that since abortion is murder , we should have a National Abortion ban.

Other conservatives take the 10th Amendment approach, and say it should strictly be a state issue. Those conservatives say that, even if we oppose abortion , we have to recognize that some states will have liberalized abortion laws.

Some conservatives say we should not work for more restrictive abortion laws in any state, because even some more moderate or conservative voters oppose abortion restrictions. Then they won’t vote for conservative candidates, and then conservative candidates will not be elected to office to work on other conservative issues besides abortion.

So considering some of these issues, I find it hard to understand what exactly is the proper conservative position on abortion.

If you think it is merely a personal choice of the mother then it is a state issue and the feds can have their own policy, such as abortion on military bases and at the VAs, if you think it is killing a baby then it has to be stopped at all levels.

Abortion-personal preference or killing babies.
