At a pro-life presidential forum last night, Republican presidential candidate Rick Perry announced that he had a change of heart on abortion in cases of rape or incest — now opposing abortion in such rare cases.
Perry said his change of heart came after meeting with Rebecca Kiessling, a pro-life attorney who was born after her birthmother was a victim of sexual assault.
“This is something that is relatively new and it goes back to a meeting with Rebecca Kiessling, who was at the The Gift of Life,” Perry said about meeting her at a recent showing of the new movie. “We had a fairly lengthy and heartfelt conversation about how she was conceived in rape. Looking in her eyes, I couldn’t come up with an answer to defend exceptions for rape and incest.”
“Over the course of the last few weeks, the Christmas holiday, reflecting on that – I would suggest that my pro-life position has been rather strong as the Governor of Texas. But she made a statement to me that was really strong and pierced my heart. As I signed that document, I will suggest to you that all I can tell you is God was working on my heart,” he said.

Let me tell you something it depends on the woman but I do believe the woman should have the choice whether she wants one or not and if she doesn't want one let it be but if she wants one let her to make that decision.
ReplyDeleteBut not allowing her to have one is totally out of the question because if that law is passed you are find more and more babies thrown into the garbage of more women dead trying to get rid of the baby in horrible ways.
I wish more people would watch the movie:
THE OTHERSIDE OF MIDNIGHT
To See what women will do to end having the baby they don't want and there will more and more of that happening.
