Once again, there was no answer to my question. Guess the conservatives would berate their daughter/grand-daughter and disown them if the young ladies had an abortion. Great parenting!

Despite your sarcastic attitude and your always general assumption about people that you do not know and your immediate put down of such people, I will try to speak for myself, because I have no grandiose opinion of myself and do not pretend to speak for anyone else but me.
Assuming this is the question...
"what would you do if your daughter or grand-daughter had an abortion and told you about it? Or was planning to have an abortion and told you it was going to be done?"
Assuming that she is of age, I dont think whether Republican or Democrat, Liberal or Conservative because again unlike you, most folks do not measure by party or what side they favor politically, but in a situation like this with love.
If she had the abortion, it is over....I would love her, console her if she is upset and go on with life.
If she came to me with plans, I would sit her down, hold her, hug her and tell her how I feel about it....discuss the ramifications, both socially and religiously and insure that she is and has received sufficient guidance.
If she is not of age, and in my care, I would weigh the reasons for the considered abortion.....if it is done and she is under age, I would be on the phone with my lawyer....if not done I want to know the reason for the planned abortion, and insure we get the proper guidance and advice.
Again, your comments always seem to have this little compartment for people that you place them in. That is not how life is for me anyway...when you use the terms you use to describe people I often wonder why you insult like that since people cannot be put into little neat groups like that. You seem to want this issue to be political only....my opinion is that when it happens to the individual, it is just that....individual...if it happens to someone you love, it is not any party or leanings, it is your heart and soul that is involved.
I do not believe in abortion...I flat out think it is murder. My daughter or my granddaughter involved does not change that...but when you ask "conservatives" this question I get confused because THEN you are not one of your neat little titles...you are a father, or grandfather first so the question does not deserve an answer if you are not sensitive to that but I tried !!
