Pro-Abortion Rep. Groups Announce New Partnership to Weaken GOP



Pro-Abortion Republican Groups Announce New Partnership to Weaken GOP
Washington, DC
(LifeNews.com)
Two pro-abortion Republican groups have announced a newly-formed partnership designed to weaken the long-standing pro-life platform the GOP maintains. The Republican Majority for Choice and the WISH List (Women in the Senate and House) hope to team up to drag the party to the left.
Colleen Parro, the head of the Republican National Coalition for Life tells LifeNews.com about the new effort.

“Feeling scorned after eighteen years of trying and failing to remove the pro-life language from the Republican national platform, and with the last three Republican presidential administrations [taking a pro-life stance], pro-choice Republican women are trying to make a come-back,” Parro said.

The two pro-abortion groups say they plan to “continue the battle for personal freedoms and choice in the GOP.”

Parro says that means they favor “getting rid of the pro-life plank and electing abortion-friendly candidates to office.”

Last summer, the Republican Party’s platform committee put together a new pro-life party platform that contains some of the strongest language ever condemning abortion and supporting legal protections for unborn children.
It stood in stark contrast to the pro-abortion plank Democrats approved at the behest of President Barack Obama.
The platform draws on the nation’s founding documents as expressing the earliest support for human life but backs a Constitutional amendment to make those protections clear.

“Faithful to the first guarantee of the Declaration of Independence, we assert the inherent dignity and sanctity of all human life and affirm that the unborn child has a fundamental individual right to life which cannot be infringed,” the final GOP platform draft says.

“We support a human life amendment to the Constitution, and we endorse legislation to make clear that the Fourteenth Amendment’s protections apply to unborn children,” it added.

During the primary election campaign, exit polling data showed Republicans in most states took a pro-life position by wanting all or most abortions illegal.
Some 19 of 24 states with publicly-available data showed pro-life Republican majorities.
Former Maryland Lt. Governor Michael Steele, who is pro-life, was recently elected as the new chairman of the Republican Party.

Yeah, well I favor throwing them out of the GOP. Why don’t they just register as Democrats if they want to kill babies.
Go to hell RINOS! And why are these people Republicans again? Pro-Life is part of the soul of the GOP, and that won’t change! The GOP IS a pro-life party!
Apparently, those RINOs are having a very difficult time admitting that, deep down inside, they are DEMOCRATS!!!! They need to all be thrown out of the party (and take Snowe, Collins and Specter with you, please!)!

I am pro life. To me, it’s simple. Cells begin to divide at conception–that’s life beginning. But if a baby dies in utero, a miscarriage, a criminal rape, the mother is very young (under 16), incest-certain things need to remain on the table. I cannot fathom women who use this as their form of birth control! The pill is much cheaper as are condoms. It boggles my mind to think that they feel such disregard for human life. And that PlanB pill just floors me. I was brought up with “you keep your legs together until you’re married.”

Mark says:

Sounds like the Rinos are at it again. This is how we wound up with McCain as our candidate. They just don’t learn that this party of conservativism is pro-life. But they insist on inserting the Abortion plank into our platform. Their mantra is that Ronald Reagan is dead and so are his ideas. That’s what they tried to do during the election…Distance themselves from Reagan and pick a moderate candidate. It tells me they are like a fish our of water, flopping around trying to find something that will work. This won’t work.
While they were floundering around trying to come up with a democrat-like candidate, the democrats were actually touting two ultra liberal candidates one trying to out liberal the other.
We got McCain who couldn’t say anything bad about obama, because he was a father and all the crap McCain said. Bottom line we got our collective asses kicked because we were trying to play fair. There is no fair in politics.
If this is what the Republican Party wants then its time we started a new party that stands behind the principles of Ronald Reagan. Because he won, and won big.
You will never hear a democrat throwing FDR under the bus, in fact they keep trying to dig him up.
Thanks to these meely-mouthed Rinos we now got a communist in the White House.

In 2006, I Marched For Life with my son’s catholic high school and guess how many school buses we sent to DC CCCP? Only ONE because the parents of parochial punks IN our school said
that a lot of them were PRO-ABORTION… A la Parastroika Nasty Pelosi and Joe Biden.
Pelosi is off to the Vatican to meet with the Pope to receive awards now? BYE BYE GOP and Roman Catholic Church! Thank God for John Hagee and Charles Stanley and Fr. Corapi!!

James M says:

I agree with you Chrissie…throw them out of the party. Its simple for me…free men that stand by and do or say nothing while the unborn are being killed are cowards and will betray anyone at anytime (and will tell them so). Its common sense as far as when life begins. Life ends when the heart stops beating so its safe for me to say it probley begins when it starts beating. Do not need to be a brain surgeon or pope to figure that out. Exceptions to this are rape, incest and physical health of the mother. I hope there is a special place in heaven for these children that have been murdered. I know there is a special place for those that support or practice this form of murder. As an adopted child, I am pro life for life. I could go on but I will not. Life, Liberty, Law and Order…these are the standards of Republicans’. God bless You Chrissie and thank-you for standing with me on this.

Rick says:

The GOP doesn’t get it, they moved left and lost, they moved further left and lost bigger. Soooo, now they want to abandon the Pro-Life people like they abandoned the gun owners?
Bye-bye GOP. “I didn’t leave you; you left me.”

Lynn, I agree and that is exactly what it is a total disregard for human life. Then they turn around and feel sorry for killers and people like that on death row.

Wild Thing says:

Mark, well said!!!! That is exactly how we lost in 2006 and how we got McCain as a candidate and how we lost the White House.

Wild Thing says:

Darth, oh WOW, thanks for sharing about that. It really is shocking how liberal they have become like that.

Wild Thing says:

James M., beautifully put thank you.

Wild Thing says:

Rick, DITTO all you said. I emailed them about this and told them how I felt.

BobF says:

I don’t understand why the Catholic Church hasn’t excommunicated the Catholic politicians who support abortion such as Kerry, Pelosi, Biden, Kennedy, etc.
