Majority of Americans Identify Themselves as Pro-Life

Sunday Paper - May 17th, 2009

Increasingly, more and more Americans are becoming aware that ‘ pro-choice’ really means ‘pro-abortion.’  In a recently conducted (May 7th-10th) Gallup poll, a majority of Americans identified themselves as ‘pro-life.’  In the 15 years that Gallup has been asking U.S. adults the question, it is the first time the majority has taken a stand for life and the human rights struggle. 

Dr. David O’steen, executive director of the National Right to Life Committee, had this to say:

“For years the abortion movement and pro-abortion groups like Planned Parenthood have hidden behind the slogan ‘pro-choice,’ but this Gallup poll shows that their deceptive rhetorical tactic is breaking down and people are realizing that pro-choice really means abortion,” he said.

O’Steen also says that the election of President Barack Obama, and the extensive pro-abortion record he has already compiled is showing Americans that pro-choice really means pro-abortion.

“The pro-abortion movement previously framed the issue by making it a question of choice, allowing committed pro-abortionists like Obama to say they don’t like abortion while remaining ‘pro-choice,’” O’Steen explained. “Had they admitted all along that they were radically pro-abortion, they would have been far less successful politically.”

“However now, as this Gallup poll indicates, people see through the facade and realize that the question really is, ‘are you for or against abortion?’ and the public’s answer does not bode well for the pro-abortion movement,” the Right to Life leader added.

President of Concerned Women for America, Wendy Wright, was also pleased with the Gallup poll findings and reminded us all that the results did not happen by random chance.

“In the last two decades, ultrasounds have made people aware that abortion kills a baby, and women have been vocal about regretting their abortion.”

She agreed that Obama is showing what pro-choice really means.

“But the most significant development in the last year is that America has the most pro-abortion president in our history. Barack Obama has revealed what ‘pro-choice’ means — taxpayer funded abortions, eliminating common-sense regulations, rescinding protections for doctors and medical providers who decline to participate in abortion,” Wright said.

“‘Pro-choice’ means taking away people’s choices — a baby’s right to live, a woman’s right to know the harms of abortion before she undergoes one, taxpayers’ right not to be forced to pay for other people’s abortions, medical providers freedom not to participate in abortions,” she concluded.
