McCain. Did US Pro-Life Organizations Wasted Their Endorsements?

Can you look at endorsement for the presidential candidate and say maybe that endorsement was wasted? Looking at the presidential race one can’t help but wonder. What if instead of endorsing Thomson and Romney, leading pro-life groups of this country would support Hackabee? Could we have McCain trailing behind Hackabee? May be or may be not. But today I would like to look at McCain and his stance on pro-life issues.

Senators McCain’s website states the following:

John McCain believes Roe v. Wade is a flawed decision that must be overturned, and as president he will nominate judges who understand that courts should not be in the business of legislating from the bench. Constitutional balance would be restored by the reversal of Roe v. Wade, returning the abortion question to the individual states. The difficult issue of abortion should not be decided by judicial fiat.

Unfortunately this is not what McCain expressed in the following video:

Repealing Roe v Wade will lead to would make abortion illegal. Amen to that. Will it make more dangerous that it is today. Not anymore dangerous as it is today- leaving behind one dead and many wounded. But that is the slogan of the “pro-choice” movement “Keep Abortions Safe and Legal”. No matter how hard you try, Sen. MacCain, you just can not be on the both side of the fence at the same time.

So what about his stand on embryonic research and cloning?

Evidently McCain believes that both are OK and is guided by a false argument that many frozen embryos are predestined to die, therefore we should get the best out of the situation. While it is true that in the USA way to many embryos are produced than needed for IVF, even if we kill all these frozen embryos, there will not be enough to produce just a few strains of stem cells, never mind to find a cure. In order for embryonic research to to go ahead, creating embryos for the sole purpose of destroying them is necessary.

I still can’t help but wonder what it would be like if Hackabee was ahead. What about you?
