I suppose it is much easier for "pro-lifers" to prove how righteous they are by telling others what to, or what not to do, than it is to actually do something themselves.

Well, at least I don't. I'm not qualified to make that call.
The pregnant woman and her doctor are qualified.

Secondly, your post is about Rubio's stance and then you berate "these anti-abortion" people and state that "these anti-abortion" people are responsible to fund the lives of "these" children.

I am pro-life, I am not Marco Rubio and I do not agree with his stance with regard to no exceptions. If these pro-abortion people would stop being so divisive...
FWIW, I am pro-choice and I agree with the bold above in regards to Rubio.

Rubio has always been extremely anti-choice and not sure why it is a big deal that he still is not. I personally don't care what he believes about abortion for his family. Someone who is pro-choice should feel that it is a choice of the family their medical practitioner to terminate a pregnancy. Whatever they chose, I am fine with that.

I can't believe he came up with such a stupid statement! A child born with microcephaly could cost society hundreds of thousands to a million to care for. If ever there was a need for abortion, this is it! Usually, people who oppose abortion are the first ones to decry large expenditures on social programs like Medicaid. Are these anti-abortion people willing to cough up the money to pay for the Zika babies?
He is pro-life. In truth even pro-life people have abortions when the find out the baby is not normal. For example 90% of parents with downs syndrome babies opt for abortion, and many of them MUST be pro-life parents.

Rubio is entitled to his opinion, and he would have been a much better president than Trump or Hillary. Too bad he 'lost it' at one point during the campaign. I couldn't believe my eyes watching him during that one debate with 'small hands' etc commentary.

Between the Space Alien and Marco Polo? Don't blame me. I did not vote for either of them.

It always amazes me how the village idiot gets the most coverage from the press.

A depraved society without a care for the genocide of the unborn.
