Uh Yeah, Dr. Kelli Ward Is Definitely Pro-Life

Editor's note: I served on the board of Arizona Right to Life for five years. McCain has a poor pro-life record, and was rated only 75% by National Right to Life, primarily due to his support for government funding of embryonic stem cell research, which pro-lifers find appalling. When someone on the PAC forced through an endorsement of him over JD Hayworth in 2010, I could no longer stay on the board or PAC in good conscience and resigned. Kelli Ward is far more pro-life than McCain will ever be (and sadly we just heard that AZRTL has again endorsed McCain). Kelli Ward has a 100% pro-life rating as a state legislator.

Sinister rumors started by the McCain campaign claim that Dr. Kelli Ward is not pro-life. Nothing could be further from the truth.
Here’s what pro-life leaders are saying about Dr. Kelli Ward:
Kelli Ward has received the powerful endorsement of the doctor who has been called the “Father of the Pro-Life Movement” as well as Arizona pro-life activist Christine Accurso.
Accurso said,
“John McCain has voted in favor of embryonic stem cell research. Dr. Kelli Ward is an outstanding pro-life leader, and I have been honored to watch her fight for the lives of the unborn on the Arizona Senate floor. Her passion, dedication, medical expertise, and commitment to solid pro-life principles are unwavering and the reason she has my vote! I endorse Kelli, and I urge all Arizonans to vote Kelli Ward for U.S. Senate!”
In May, Cathi Herrod, President of the Center for Arizona Policy set the record straight saying,
“For the record, Kelli Ward had a 100% pro-life voting record as a State Senator. Never wavered.”
Ward was endorsed in May by Phyllis Schlafly who successfully inserted the pro-life plank into the Republican platform at the 1976 Republican National Convention.
Dr. John Grady, a distinguished physician and surgeon and nationally recognized author and lecturer, said
“In the Arizona Senate, Kelli Ward had a 100% pro-constitution and pro-life record. In the U.S. Senate, Dr. Kelli Ward will uphold and defend the Constitution of the United States. She will respect and defend the rights and dignity of all Americans — both born and unborn.”
Dr. Grady practiced in general medicine, surgery, and trauma and has delivered more than 3,000 babies. Dr. Grady was also the founder of the first state and national pro-life organizations. In 1966, seven years before Roe v. Wade, he authored the small book, Abortion – Yes or No, which became the most widely read treatise in the world on the subject and the primer for the pro-life movement.
Dr. Grady stated,
“There are many vital issues now before us, but the issue for which this nation will be judged by God is the wholesale slaughter of the unborn, with more than 50 million innocent unborn babies killed by abortion since 1973. If this nation is to survive, we must ensure that constitutional judges are appointed, especially to the Supreme Court. To do this we must have a strong majority of truly conservative Republican Senators who will uphold the Constitution. Senator Kelli Ward will be one of the loyal Americans who will lead that restoration. Sadly, John McCain’s record shows that he is not the solid conservative and uncompromising constitutional Republican we need in these critical times.”
Kelli said at a recent town hall meeting:
“Attack ads may twist my words out of context to paint a false picture of who John McCain wants you to think I am, but my 100% Pro-Life Voting Record tells who I really am and, most importantly, how I’ll vote in the United States Senate.
“I believe human life is a precious gift from God that begins at conception and deserves the full and equal protection of our laws.
“No matter how they slice and dice a quotation from a liberal newspaper, a 100% Pro-Life voting record tells everything you need to know.
“Senator McCain has voted dozens of times for Planned Parenthood funding and fetal tissue research. Now he wants to hide his record of supporting extreme leftist judges like the ACLU’s Ruth Bader Ginsburg and Justice Breyer.
“McCain’s campaign rhetoric? Or my voting record? You decide.”

They are promoting McCain because they think if he wins, they will receive everything they want. He definitely has promised them SOMETHING if they back him. Could be NO other reason.

Evidently McCain has promised them something if they back him. There could NOT be any other reason especially because of the way he has treated the Vets. He has not helped them at all, even though he thinks he is a Hero.
