We are a nation of laws. We are a republic and we should not be ruled by the 51% vote, but we have a constitution that is susposed to protect us from the tyranny of the 51% vote. Nevertheless, we hear liberals appeal to polls all the time that indicate that they feel that unborn babies should have no protection since their polls say that a majority of people favor taking away the unborn babies’ rights to be born.
The liberal pro-abortion Max Brantley of the Arkansas Times Blog noted:
A solid majority in the U.S. do NOT favor repeal of Roe v. Wade, which preserved a woman’s right to choose an abortion.
They might oppose abortion individually or have moral objections. But a sample of 1,502 found them solidly against overturning Roe v. Wade, 63-29. That split isn’t much different from results over the last two decades. The percentage with a moral objection to abortion, at 47 percent, actually reflects a decline from 52 percent six years ago.
Speaking of morals: Where 50 percent had said six years ago it was morally wrong to smoke marijuana, the percentage dropped in this year’s sample to 32 percent.
Coincidentally, Planned Parenthood has begun emphasizing the general support for continued legal abortion — and a resistance on the part of many people to be labeled in one narrow camp or the other.
I am not afraid to put up a pro-choice video on my blog but I will follow it with a thoughtful pro-life video.
