"Blackwell is 100% Pro-Life" proclaims RAB; until Blackwell's own campaign spokeman reveals otherwise.....

In today's Right Angle Blog posting by jamesrhodes, the blog attempts to defuse the allegations leveled here and elsewhere that Ken Blackwell is yet again flip-flopping from the extremist positions Secretary Blackwell took during the primary.

The defense is not that Blackwell has changed his position, but that he just wants the current "pro-life" protections such as parental notification, etc. to remain in place during any possible court challenge of Brinkman's bill.

So they're saying that Blackwell is 100% Pro-Life and hasn't changed his position.

Again, here's Ken Blackwell in January:

Q: If Roe v. Wade were to be overturned, would you sign a law that would outlaw abortions in the case of rape, incest or to save the life of the mother?
A: Yes.
Q: Including the life of the mother?
A: Yes.

And here's Candidate Blackwell's campaign statement from today's Toledo Blade:

Democrats yesterday accused Mr. Blackwell of backing off on support for a total ban voiced during the GOP primary.

Blackwell spokesman Carlo LoParo said the candidate would support the bill if amended to protect current Ohio regulation of abortion if a court strikes it down and if it includes the exception for the life of the mother.

Mr. Rhodes, I believe those aren't just sandals, Mr. Blackwell is wearing.......

Ken Blackwell:  He's consistently inconsistent.
