McCain Says No To Choice: 'I Will Be A Pro-Life President'

McCain Says No To Choice: 'I Will Be A Pro-Life President'

If you're pro-choice, John McCain isn't for you. Here he is earlier tonight at the Saddleback forum:

I have a 25 year record pro-life record in the Congress, in the Senate, and as President of the United States I will be a pro-life president, and this presidency will have pro-life policies. That's my commitment. That's my commitment to you.


Too bad he isn't pro-life when it comes to war.

Video

As for my impressions on the event itself, the key thing to remember is that the audience at the Saddleback Church was heavily disposed towards McCain, both demographically and ideologically. So while McCain did well (even though he annoyed the heck out me personally), it really wasn't much a challenge for him. I thought Barack Obama did just as well as McCain, and given the makeup of the audience, that's a remarkable achievement.

I also think McCain's firm answer on being pro-life will haunt him. There are so many people out there who believe John McCain is pro-choice, and this is the strongest video evidence yet showing that he's not just personally pro-life, but also committed to leading a pro-life presidency.

more


Maverick no more.

1. PRO-FETUS president. If you were PRO-LIFE, you'd also oppose the
war in Iraq, the debacle in post-Katrina New Orleans, poverty.

2. PRO-CONTROL is what he is. He wants to take control AWAY from women and let gov't
and religious freaks control them.
