However, that only pertains to the issue of abortion. People label themselves as pro-life, but then go on to support contradicting things like wars or cutting welfare spending. At least that's how I see it. For me, I'm more of a big picture guy, and I like to stay consistent. For me, pro-life is supporting the life of the mother, even if she does choose to have an abortion, and then protect and preserve the life that is already here and is producing for the economy. So, where do you think the line should be drawn? How do we distinguish between pro- and anti-life? Should these things even exist?

I like his views, even if I don't agree.

Then it's a lie. Everything Fox News says is a lie.
Even true things once said on Fox News become lies.
