Pro-Life Advocates Blast Pat Robertson for Rudy Giuliani Endorsement

The reaction from the pro-life community to Pat Robertson’s endorsement of pro-abortion ex-New York mayor Rudy Giuliani for the GOP nomination for president has been strong. Several pro-life groups and leaders issued statements Wednesday and Thursday saying Robertson has “sold out” the pro-life movement. The evangelical leader said he backed Giuliani because of other political issues — most particularly his leadership after the terrorist attacks and against Islamic extremism. But pro-life advocates say Giuliani’s position in favor of legalized abortion and his long record opposing any limits on the practice outweighs any other political considerations.
