Is Ron Johnson Pro-Life?

While both GOP candidates are political newcomers, they clearly differ on the issue. Dave Westlake has taken the purist position of opposing abortion in all instances — no exceptions. Ron Johnson, on the other hand, said in a recent interview with Green Bay's WTAQ radio that he would not bar abortions in all circumstances.

When conservative talk-radio host Jerry Bader asked Johnson if he was a "straight pro-life" candidate, Johnson replied: "No."

Johnson then endorsed what he referred to as "the normal three exceptions," which he described as "true life of the mother ... and instances of rape and incest."

...  I hope RonJohn changes his mind.  To make the point simple, there is no such thing as "un-raping" a woman.  Abortion proponents want to present an "easy fix" to the tragedy.  It's not true.  The abortion does not change anything except heap on more guilt and confusion on a woman who needs real love and help(not a scissors and vaccuum).

Okay, so RonJohn is certainly still a better option than Russ Feingold who(I kid you not) supports infanticide.

Anyhoo, the only thing that he can do about the issue as a Senator is to vote against taxpayer-financing of abortions. All the rest is in the courts' hands.

Feingold is an ass.
Sorry!
As for Ron Johnson; the moral adage that to choose the least evil is the best.
It's very unfortunate we have to choose between the lesser of evils, here.

Who said you have to choose between the lesser of two evils?
