Patriots at The Susan B. Anthony list are slated to spend $40,000 on television ads telling Senator Casey to vote against the Senate’s health care bill, which provides federal funding for abortions, using the words of his pro-life late father to try to convince him.
“Senator Casey, who calls himself pro-life, will soon have the opportunity to vote against the greatest expansion of abortion since Roe v. Wade,” said Susan B. Anthony List President Marjorie Dannenfelser in a news release. “The question is, will he see the illogic of his position that ‘health care’ could ever include abortion? Will he put his party’s ideology ahead of the lives of innocent unborn children? The decision to oppose this bill would have been a no-brainer for Governor Casey. Bob Casey, Sr. would have supported the idea of health care reform, but never at the expense of the little guy – the unborn child.
“Yet, unlike Senator Ben Nelson, Senator Casey has refused to draw a line in the sand,” Dannenfelser continued. “His father, Governor Casey, once said ‘legalized abortion is inconsistent with our national character.’ On behalf of the growing American pro-life majority, I urge Senator Casey to honor his father’s legacy and Pennsylvania values by voting no on the Senate health care bill.”
“Legalized abortion” is indeed “inconsistent with our national character,” but it remains to be seen if – when push comes to shove – paying to kill babies is consistent with Bob Casey Jr.’s personal character.
