Another Romney Reversal: What does the National Right To Life have to say about Mitt Romney’s abortion reversal?

Wednesday, October 10th, 2012

Now that Mitt Romney has reversed his position again on the pro life / abortion issue, I would like to know what the National Right to Life has to say about  his reversal.

We have coined a new term for Multiple Choice Mitt and the new name is “Romney’s Reversal” as the etch-a-sketch politician tries to spruce up  his populism points.

Fact is, smart women will not trust the charlatan politician.  At least women know what they are gonna get with President Obama — but now Romney is desperate to garner populism points the way he tried when he ran against Senator John McCain.  Romney’s reversals are a failed strategy.  He lost against McCain, and he’ll lose again with Obama because he simply cannot be trusted with the average ordinary American.

From the WAPOST:

“There’s no legislation with regards to abortion that I’m familiar with that would become part of my agenda,” Romney told the paper’s editorial board. “One thing I would change however which would be done by executive order and not by legislation is that I would reinstate the Mexico City policy which is that foreign aid dollars from the United States would not be used to carry out abortion in other countries.”

Later, Romney, who spent the day in Ohio, appeared to back away from his remarks, saying: “I think I’ve said time and again that I’m a pro-life candidate and I’ll be a pro-life president.”

More importantly, how do Ohio Pro Life voters feel about Romney profiting from abortions?

(That April, Stericycle had announced plans to buy the medical-waste businesses of Browning Ferris Industries and Allied Waste Industries.) The SEC filing lists assorted Bain-related entities that were part of the deal, including Bain Capital (BCI), Bain Capital Partners VI (BCP VI), Sankaty High Yield Asset Investors (a Bermuda-based Bain affiliate), and Brookside Capital Investors (a Bain offshoot). And it notes that Romney was the “sole shareholder, Chairman, Chief Executive Officer and President of BCI, BCP VI Inc., Brookside Inc. and Sankaty Ltd….”
