How's this? The Texas Queen of the Pro-Choice brigade is suddenly pro-life?
"Wendy Davis is continuing her campaign to reform her image as an abortion activist as she attempts to moderate her extreme views enough to placate a Texas electorate that is solidly pro-life. Davis has already downplayed her pro-abortion views and is attempting to focus on other political issues, and now she’s attempting to pull a fast one in her campaign for governor by declaring herself “pro-life.” Abortion Activist Wendy Davis Tells Texas Voters, "I Am Pro-Life" | LifeNews.com
So, you think, a "politico" can't choose to carry her pregnancy to term, while simultaneously supporting other women's right to choose otherwise?
Um... I don't follow your logic.
Sure you do. She became a political star for her filibuster opposing abortion restrictions. But Texas is a politically conservative state and she's trailing her opponent by 15 points.
But what the hey, she's a Democrat, so lying is okay. Know what I mean all you Obama voters?
I think many people have the same view, I would fit in that category and my position is not based on religion or politics. I have no issue with something like the morning after pill but the age old question is where is the line after that?
This is far too complicated topic, personally I would hope that any pregnancy is not terminated simply for convenience but as society I'm not sure where out place is intervening if the mother does want to terminate. Firstly what kind of life is that kid going to have? Then you have a whole other issue of rights of the pregnant woman. What about the rights of the Father.....?

Are you being deliberately dense, or is it something you can't help?
One more try... Davis can CHOOSE to carry her pregnancy to term, WHILE AT THE SAME TIME, filibuster an abortion law in order to insure that OTHER women in Texas have the right to make to make the OPPOSITE choice if they so desire.
That does NOT make her a liar or a hypocrite. It makes her a principled representative of her constituents.
