Pro Life in TN

TN Congressional Race: See Roy Run, From his Pro-Obamacare Stance...

 This is the portion of a blog about the West TN race to replace John Tanner....current state senator Roy Herron (D)..."Mr. Aw Shucks,".....is running for the TN 8th district. I am going to post the portion dealing with the life issue. I think the reason the good senator grates on my nerves is that he is an abortion ally who tries to pretend that he is pro life even to the extent that he introduces phony pro life bills   to give himself cover.  I have much more respect for those who are open about their advocacy of abortion. Make no mistake about it West TN, the senator is a abortion on demand supporter despite his storytelling capabilities.
from the blog.....

…Or the door it leaves open to abortion funding…

“…he's also voted against bills that sought to halt the state's funding of abortions.” (Jackson Sun, 10/28/04)

“…an earlier amendment by Sen. Roy Herron, D-Dresden…would have enshrined in the constitution the right to abortion in the three cases.” (Memphis Commercial Appeal, 3/9/04)

“…pro-choice Sen. Roy Herron…” (Knoxville News-Sentinel, 2/29/04)

“…[Herron] voted against the constitutional amendment on abortion backed by Tennessee Right to Life.” (The Tennessee Journal, 12/4/09)
