Quote of the Day
Our government... teaches the whole people by its example. If the government becomes the lawbreaker, it breeds contempt for law; it invites every man to become a law unto himself; it invites anarchy.
-- Louis Brandeis
If government teaches by example, what does that say about those who take the position of "I personally believe abortion is wrong, but I don't think the government should make that decision for anyone."? It is not only personally inconsistent, but it is also asking the government to teach by example something that you believe is morally wrong.
Both our new President and our new Vice-President "officially" take this position. By that, I mean, that there is a good chance they are saying that they personally believe abortion is wrong because it is politically expedient for them to say that. The fact is, if they were convinced abortion is wrong (and the only way it can be wrong is for it to be murdering an unborn child...it's not like stealing a candy bar from the grocery store), then why would they ask government to condone it?
