GOP Senator Scott Brown Pro-Abortion

Scott Brown defends pro-abortion stance (OneNewsNow.com)

I just read this and was sickened by it. While it is very encouraging to see a GOP Senator in Massachusetts, I find it a tough pill to swallow when Republicans support abortion. I have always considered myself a fiscal moderate and socially conservative. According to his comments below, we are nearly opposites. I will be removing the link I have to his site immediately.

WASHINGTON - Republican Sen.-elect Scott Brown of Massachusetts says he opposes federal funding for abortions, but thinks women should have the right to choose whether to have one.

Brown told ABC’s This Week that he disagrees with his party’s position that the Supreme Court decision legalizing abortion should be overturned. The incoming lawmaker says the abortion question is one that’s best handled by a woman, her family and her doctor. He also says more effort needs to go into reducing the number of abortions in the U.S.

He also said the GOP shouldn’t take his vote for granted on every issue. He says he’s fiscally conservative but more moderate on social issues.
