Backwards Bob Says Elections Should Be About Abortion
Bob McDonnell is telling people he’s not focused on social issues. But, his record and his own words tell a different story. Throughout his career, Bob McDonnell's record and priorities have been crystal clear: he's focused on a narrow ideological agenda that will take women backwards.
From Attorney General Bob McDonnell’s Remarks to the 2008 National Right to Life Committee meeting, 07/03/2008:
“These elections matter because elections determine who's got the power and who's going to make the decisions and whether or not…they are Pro-Life or not, will make an eternal difference in the statutes and in the legislatures all over this country.
“Not only in a federal election because it determines who's going to be appointed but in all these state elections because ultimately most of the decisions that are made on the issue of abortion are made by your state legislatures and so you need to be active I know you need a rest from time to time but you know you can rest in eternity, but for now, while you’re on this earth, we need your help at every election.
“Those policy makers with the votes determine whether or not you're going to have a pro-life state where protections are given to the unborn consistent with federal court decisions or whether you're going to have a different kind of policy.”
