NARAL Ads
The recent fuss over the NARAL ads condemning John Roberts is reprehensible at best. Factcheck puts forth a good analysis on this issue. Normally, I'm a pro-choice republican--and I even, on a certain level, support NARAL's causes. However, this false misrepresentation of Judge Roberts is hideous and malicious. NARAL appears to have no shame in shooting down any pro-life judge--claiming that this is the mainstream of American thought. Frankly, it isn't, but that's a different issue altogether which I won't address here.
To imply Roberts is supporting murderers and bombers is a GROSS misrepresentation of the case. He merely argued, for his employer (the US Government), that the case is not covered under the 19th century civil rights legislation. That makes him a murderer? NARAL has every right to put forth advertisements that condemn his pro-life stance, the possibility that may overturn Roe, but this ad campaign is singularly the most heinous case of malicious mudslinging in recent memory. Frankly, I'm ashamed to even support any of NARAL's causes.
