The HHS Nomination

Like others, I am learning more about Governor Sibelius's position on many issues. I do find it instructive that NARAL Pro-Choice states on its website that the Governor is identified as "pro-choice" but both houses of the Kansas state legislature are identified as "anti-choice." As I see it, to be pro-choice means that you may not pursue an abortion for yourself, but then you might; but you assuredly will allow someone else to have an abortion if she so chooses. When the gloss is stripped and we are down to fundamentals, to be pro-choice means to favor Roe v. Wade and its progeny which gives any woman a "constitutional right" to have an abortion if she so chooses.
