NARAL's Ad

Okay, I have just watched the ARAL's ad about Judge Roberts...

I am very much questioning the intelligence of anyone who thinks that ad is anything but emotionally changed and the only reason it was made was because groups like NARAL would hate it if a woman could not kill her baby minutes before it was born (late-term abortion).

Go here and watch the video yourself..

The video leads you to believe that he supports people who bomb abortion clinics AND anyone who uses violence to solve problems.

In words and images, the ad conveys the idea that Roberts took a legal position excusing bombing of abortion clinics, which is false. To the contrary, during the Reagan administration when he was Associate Counsel to the President, Roberts drafted a memo saying abortion-clinic bombers "should be prosecuted to the full extent of the law." In the 1986 memo, Roberts called abortion bombers "criminals" and "misguided individuals," indicating that they would get no special treatment regarding requests for presidential pardons. Reagan in fact gave no pardons to abortion-clinic bombers.

the ad misleads when it says Roberts supported a clinic bomber. It is true that Roberts sided with the bomber and many other defendants in a civil case, but the case didn't deal with bombing at all. Roberts argued that abortion clinics who brought the suit had no right use an 1871 federal anti-discrimination statute against anti-abortion protesters who tried to blockade clinics. Eventually a 6-3 majority of the Supreme Court agreed, too. Roberts argued that blockades were already illegal under state law.
The images used in the ad are especially misleading. The pictures are of a clinic bombing that happened nearly seven years after Roberts signed the legal brief in question.

This story and the lying mom story go hand in hand...if the left's arguments were valid on fact alone, they would not have to use these kind of tactics to bring people to their side....The problem is that the left can not win arguments with facts and reason, so they have to show people in wheelchairs and change stories about meeting the President to try and trick people to come to their side...

Not working since the house, senate and white house are all run by Republicans.
