How can any self-respecting conservative support an abortionist candidate like Giuliani?

Question

I'd rather vote for a anti abortion Christian Communist like myself!

Answer 1

Many conservatives are prochoice on abortion, while many leftists, like you and members of **Consistent Ethic Groups, are prolife.

I wouldn't call him a communist, but if you are looking for a liberal Christian to vote for, have you checked out Joe Schriner at http://www.voteforjoe.com ? I may vote for him, but I'm still looking for a prolife liberal with experience.

Answer 2

Considering that conservatives would rather the abortion laws go back to the state legislatures where they belong, and that Giuliani would likely sign into law any reasonable bill limiting abortion, I don't see this one single issue being a good enough reason to not vote for him.

I don't think he's going to be the GOP candidate, but I'm not a one-issue voter, either.

Answer 3

I am pro life and would not even consider a moral position one way or the other on abortion laws .
The fact that in my mind it is murder and that even in the case of rape and incest you should not be allowed an abortion is a simple position and easily understood .
Yet it is not and people seem to feel murder is justifiable for any number of reasons .
SO I live in a world that makes no sense to me .
People who say abortion is wrong also say that the death penalty is ok .
So much contradiction as far as I am concerned I take a persons position on abortion out of the process and make a choice on how it affects my wallet . So Public funding of abortions would cause me to vote against you . As long as my money is not used I guess I could care less .
Whats a few hundred thousand more deaths each year among millions that could be prevented .

Answer 4

Hmmm ... do we see an agenda here??? As someone else added above, an abortionist actually performs abortions, pro-choice candidates believe that a woman should have some say in what happens to her body, and pro-lifers believe that the government should be able to tell a woman who has been raped or abused that she has to relinquish all control of her own body so that right-wing religious right supporters can feel all good about themselves and their misguided beliefs. Have a great day!

Answer 5

why are you making your decision on one issue. Look at all stands and decide on the majority & most mportant that you agree ordisagree with. And no I do not necessarily believe all abortions are right or moral but each cae should be considered individually by the prospective parents & thir medical advisers & everyone else should butt out. This is a hard enough choice to live with without all the busybodies. And no I or noone in my family has found t necessary to resort.

Answer 6

I'm not a conservative, and that's why I was LMAO at the idea that conservatives were rallying around Giuliani because he happened to not be out of town when NY was affected by 9/11. That conservative support seems to be dissipating anyway.

So, you've made your position clear, and you're entitled to your views.

Answer 7

I'm conservative and I think waisting time talking about abortion and gay marriage is a sham. There are much more pressing issues like immigration and terrorism. To me, those issues don't matter! Stop trying to get MORE government regulations on what people do like a TRUE conservative. The right preaches freedom, then tries to to take away choice.

I don't "support" abortion, it's just not my business what YOU do.

Answer 8

I guess the other idea is that it's hard to support a man who is duped by so fantasy a religion as his main opponent. J, if he is to be believed (??????) claims he will nonminate conservative (non-legislating) judges (to, for instance, the Supreme Court), which is the most abortion-issue matter most presidents will do. Until I see something startlingly better than these two (and McCain), I can't get overly excited about 2008.

Answer 9

Sorry, but there are far better reasons to reject Rudy.

Abortion is none of your business unless you're the cause of the unwanted fetus. If you're not a party to the situation, stay out of it.

Worry about the people who are already alive and suffering. Show some good christian values to those who are in real need.
