Democrats used to lodge their support for abortion using the mantra of "safe, legal, and rare." This was a roundabout way of asserting "we don't like it, but it should be legal and it should be the exception not the rule." Now they have dropped all pretenses of wanting abortion to be "rare" and instead have thrown all of their political might behind the notion that abortion-on-demand is actually a net positive for society and therefore must utilized to the highest benefit.

For Biden to stray from Democrats' platform suggests to me that he has willfully put politics in front of personal belief for the last couple decades. I find that to be despicable, especially since he's taking this position in the presence of the Pope's visit.

Biden is not a man of principle, obviously.

Biden has always believed that personally based on his religious beliefs. He's never felt compelled to force that through secular law upon others.

I don't know why so many people can't make that distinction in their own mind.

Can't rep you, but this is exactly right. He has never stated or given any indication that he will try to establish law based on his own personal religious beliefs. That is the difference between a right winger and a left winger.

I just say I respect the man because the militant liberals will absolutely see red and be frothing at the mouth that Biden said anything against the alter of their Atheism which is abortion.

The babies are the sacrifices to their God. Simply the truth.

If abortion were to be banned who would pay for all the little bastards? Would you adopt one of these unwanted children?
You damn sure don't want any tax increases. Just how would you propose society take care of the result of an abortion ban?

.
Here's the flaw in your thinking. Most liberals don't give a damn what people believe in their personal lives, just so long as they don't attempt to force their own beliefs on everyone else. It seems to be a difficult distinction for those on the right to grasp.
