Is Democrat Outreach To Pro-lifers Over?

Harry Reid and the Senate Democrats are considering preventing crucial parental notification legislation sponsored by John Ensign from coming to a vote.  The Child Custody Protection Act (S 403) would “prohibit taking minors across State lines in circumvention of laws requiring the involvement of parents in abortion decisions."



A Polling company survey shows that 82 percent oppose taking a minor girl across state lines to obtain an abortion without her parents’ knowledge.  Only 15 percent support these actions.  Is this how Democrats reach out to pro-lifers-by opposing legislation that most abortion supporters support?  Is Democrat outreach to pro-lifers over? It seems so, if not a ruse to begin with.



Opposing such a broadly supported bill is bizarre for a party “reaching out” to pro-lifers.  If Reid blocks this he has lost any pro-life credibility and has become a surrogate to advance the agenda of radical abortion groups like Planned Parenthood and NARAL who oppose this legislation.



This is an EXAMPLE of what Democrats for Life mean when they blame abortion militancy for making the Democrats the minority party and hindering other democrat issues.  Pro-lifers need a strong pro-life democratic party so we will not be taken for granted. I hope the 43-47 percent of Democrats who Democrats for Life say are pro-life will stand up and take their party back so neither party will be able to take pro-lifers for granted.
