At some Catholic colleges, the problem is that they specifically invite pro-abortion politicians to come speak on campus, thus providing them a platform for their evil agenda and violating the US bishops’ guidelines on this.
But at my alma mater, Franciscan University of Steubenville, if the pro-abortion candidate—or her surrogate—shows up in town—off-campus, mind you—they make it a point to go and let them know that their pro-abortion ways are not universally loved by the Roe generation.
John Kerry learned that difficult lesson in 2004 when he held at a rally in Steubenville, and now Bill Clinton has learned it too. When will the DNC learn to avoid Steubenville. As Darwin Catholic says, it’s not a particularly political campus, but the students are passionate for the cause of life.
Darwin also reproduces a press release from Students for Life of America that gives the transcript of the confrontation.
Note how Clinton claims to have reduced abortions during his presidency. For one thing, it’s all in how you define abortion. Most pro-aborts don’t include so-called “emergency contraception” and other non-surgical abortions. Even more, if the abortion rate went down during his eight years in office, it had nothing to do with him. I’ll bet he couldn’t name a single policy that made a concrete reduction in abortions. But leave it to a liberal: they’d take credit for the sun rising.
