That’s IT? Counseled women against having abortions? Really?

Weak beer - weaker than the haircut thing...

I do believe in Romney we may have the sqeakiest clean nominee in modern times. (I recall some folks who disapproved of Reagan’s divorce)

Huh. That’s it? If Allred had proof that Romney had counseled a woman to HAVE an abortion, there might be something here. But as it is, I’m not seeing anything Team Obama can use. Unless Allred has convinced one of the women to portray Romney as a monster when she “tells her story”, which is certainly possible.

Either way, though, I don’t think this would be much of an October Surprise, if true.

Romney will win in a massive Reaganesque landslide if this is what the Obama campaign is pinning it’s hopes on.

“THE ISSUE” Obama thinks is a big deal to me.

Still, I distinctly recall Romney making an RTL statement and noting he has this exception thing ~ and that's NOT RTL to have that exception.

Seriously, you can look up the LDS materials on their internet websites and the exception thing is LDS policy ~ you can do abortions but you are supposed to engage in prayer and counseling first ~ presumably with a proper church authority ~ e.g. your local bishop.

There are some people who imagine there's some RTL basis to the exception thing but it looks more like an excuse to kill babies to RTL folks.

Somebody want to jump in here and tell us why LDS has that exception thing? Maybe you'd like to tell us why any child should face execution without trial ~ no doubt some think that's OK, but these aren't RTL positions.

Oh, and don't bother arguing that 'Well that's better than Obamugabe' because you get the same thing either way ~ dead babies! It is necessary for Romney and his followers to actually adopt an RTL position first for any of them to legitimately claim they have an RTL position. Very simple to do in fact ~ swear off killing babies.

Maybe the children who were not aborted will speak out.

If there are women who were “talked out of having abortions” by a church leader acting in his spiritual capacity, I wonder if their fetuses (ie, their adult CHILDREN) will also appear with Gloria to chastise Romney?

Speculation has surrounded a story published last week by the left-wing website AlterNet, purporting to tell the story of women who claimed Mitt Romney advised them in the 1980s, in his capacity as a church leader, against having abortions.

GASP! Actually there would be a scandal had he advised them to have an abortion so there's nothing here.

“Hi! This is Gloria Allred and I am about to announce the LAMEST October Surprise in political history. In fact it is so lame it is actually laughable. Plus it not really a ‘surprise’ since Matt Drudge has already given the world the heads up on it.”

Remember, Democrats will stop at nothing to retain power. Lying, cheating, extortion, intimidation are all justified now because they must win to transform America into a socialist (communist?) state.

In their book, the end always justifies the means.

Conservative Media should blast a headline: ROMNEY SAVED WOMAN FROM BREAST CANCER 30 years ago!

I believe the angle they are going to try and use is the woman’s life was in danger if she carried the pregnancy and was advised to have an abortion. I don’t remember where I read it here at though, but that she had the abortion any way after Romney advised her not to. That way they can go after Romney’s ‘life of the woman’ abortion exception is a lie-thus ‘war on women’.

URGENT MESSAGE TO ROMNEY CAMPAIGN!!!
Find out who this baby has grown up to become and feature this adult as a human being who would have been lost if allowed to have been aborted. Look how angry leftists became over TIM TEBOW. No apologies for life!
