The problem is that abortion goes right out the window when the person running for office wants those voters. I have seen it with Democrats as well. Hillary used to be very pro-choice with no apologies. Now...she wants the Mommy and Religious Vote so she is catering to Evangelicals. In the "Catholics for a Free Choice" mag, she said how abortion is such a tragedy and how there should be less of them. Even the once radical CFFC for abortion has become watered-down about how to make adoption better or more affordable to birth that baby.
A childfree woman like myself has no place in those groups so I canceled my membership with the supposed pro-choice Catholic group as well. Women get sold out every fucking time. I am over it! It women want abortion, it is time for them to get off their asses and do something about it. I did security for aboriton clinics. When the volunteers from abortion rights groups asked patients if they wanted pro-choice literature or possibly attend a meeting on this issue, the hands would go up in their faces...yet they wanted us to escort them to the door when a forced birther was screaming in their faces!
The gals just wanted to get their abortions done unnoticed and get out of there ASAP so they can pretend nothing happened. That is so the women can get the "right" man down the road with that suburban life along with the SUV and strollers. I am sure the abortion was never mentioned to "Mr. Right". Women will need to lose everything before they get active again. Right now, shopping and manicures are what is on the Average Female's mind. Wait until birth control pills are harder to get. That may wake someone up! Until then, women will just go on obliviously...
Rudy's problem is that he apologizes for his position rather than say what he feels and tell others to deal with it. Politicians need to quit saying they are sorry for a pro-abortion stance.
