Report on the pro-life views of Gov. Mitt Romney
Report on the pro-life views of Gov. Mitt Romney
THE TOP SIX PROBLEMS: Since Romney's famous pro-life "conversion" in November 2004, note the following -
1. Romney said that he does not favor a federal constitutional amendment banning abortion, but instead favors each state deciding for itself whether to allow abortion or not. (Suppose Lincoln had taken that approach on the slavery issue. )
2. Gov. Romney signed into law a universal health insurance plan that (a) includes increased state-funded abortions, and (b) names Planned Parenthood in the law as an overseer. Romney never challenged any of that.
3. Romney said he would disagree with governmental intervention in the Terri Schiavo forced starvation case, adding "I think it's probably best to leave these kinds of matters in the hands of the courts."
4. Gov. Romney forced Catholic hospitals in Massachusetts to dispense the "morning after" pill.
5. Romney said he does not object to stem cell research using left over human embryos.
6. Although Romney vetoed pro-abortion legislation after his "conversion", it always appeared to be for political effect. The Legislature always overrode the vetoes. We never saw Romney exert any substantial effort to get his vetoes sustained.
