WASHINGTON — Republican presidential candidate Mike Huckabee rejects letting states decide whether to allow abortions, claiming the right to life is a moral issue not subject to multiple interpretations.
"It's the logic of the Civil War," Huckabee said Sunday, comparing abortion rights to slavery. "If morality is the point here, and if it's right or wrong, not just a political question, then you can't have 50 different versions of what's right and what's wrong."
Dear Mike: The law of this land requires that these issues be left to the states. Regardless of how you feel about slavery or abortion, you would first have to change how laws are made. Or is government to become whatever you want it to be? That's precisely how we got into this mess. Mike, we were hoping you would make some progress here. Instead, you lose a point.
