Rubio on abortion: Senators can't change hearts, but they can change laws



Post from www.Catholicvoteaction.org
Thomas Peters

 I always get frustrated when I hear people say things like....well you cannot legislate morality....usually it is a pastor or priest who does not want to get involved in preaching the pro life message from the pulpit....well why we are not wanting to get involved they are legislating immorality....actually the correct answer is we legislate morality all the time...we have laws against, murder, rape, theft, assault.



A good catch from David Freddoso at the Washington Examiner, revealing Mr. Rubio's perspective on the role of senators in shaping the laws surrounding an important social issue: Rubio ... subtly hit Crist on the issue of abortion. Without naming Crist, he criticized the argument of politicians who claim they are seeking to "change hearts" rather than overturn the controversial Roe v. Wade abortion decision. “Senators can’t change hearts, only God can change hearts,” Rubio said. “But senators can change laws.”
