‘Pro-Life’ McCain Receives Endorsement from GOP Pro-Choice Group
The Republicans for Choice PAC has endorsed Pro-Life candidate John MCain for President:
(CNSNews.com) - The Republicans for Choice Political Action Committee has endorsed John McCain (R-Ariz.), saying he is the best candidate now that former New York City Mayor Rudy Giuliani is out of the presidential race.
The Republicans for Choice PAC supports Roe v. Wade, the 1973 Supreme Court decision legalizing abortion, and also wants the Human Life Amendment removed from the plank of the Republican Party.
Republicans for Choice founder and Chairwoman Ann E.W. Stone told Cybercast News Service that McCain’s pro-life position wasn’t an issue.
“(McCain) is (pro-life), but it’s not at the top of his agenda, not like Huckabee or the born-again Romney,” Stone said. “He’s shown his willingness to reach across the party, and we look forward to those discussions.”
Interesting turn of events, but what do Pro-Life groups think about this:
Colleen Parro, executive director of the Republican National Coalition for Life, said the endorsement should make some Republicans uncomfortable.
“My first thought was how embarrassing for the pro-lifers who have signed on for McCain,” Parro said.
If you think this is bad, what about the Pro-Life Democrats, who don’t even have a candidate to consider who is running for President:
Another pro-life group, Democrats for Life of America, said they can’t find a candidate to endorse.
“None of the candidates fit our criteria,” Kristen Day, executive director of DFLA, told Cybercast News Service. “If we were to endorse Obama or Clinton, it would ruin our credibility.
“We are focused on the pro-life Democrats who are running for Congress, the U.S. Senate and in local races across the country.”
What exactly does this group know about John McCain’s true positions that we don’t. Why would a group that supports Roe vs. Wade, and abortion being their one and only issue, support a candidate who is Pro-Life who claims he will appoint Conservative judges, which would result in Roe vs. Wade being overturned.
