Huckabee metaphor

Huckabee recently visited a Crisis Pregnancy Center. To understand what this means...

Feministing:

...

Last week republican presidential hopeful Mike Huckabee toured the Carolina Pregnancy Center:

“Sometimes those of us in the pro-life community have been known for what we’re against — that we don’t want to see an unborn child have his or her life ended prematurely and unnecessarily. And yet it’s not enough to be known for what we’re against. We have to be known for what we’re for, which is being for life,” Huckabee told volunteers after touring the center.

That's true, you should let voters know what you're for. If Huckabee stands by the work at the Carolina Pregnancy Center, here's what he's for...

Telling young and low-income women that they shouldn't worry about the financial burdens of caring for a child: "It can be very scary to have financial difficulties, but there are a lot of possible solutions...Today's schools often give aid to single mothers or a job could always come through...A lot can change financially in nine months!"

Lying to rape survivors: "You are in a very unusual circumstance (conception from rape is extremely rare) and it is understandable that you would be frantic. But don’t allow the rapist to further impact your situation by causing you to end the live of an innocent child."

Downplaying the reality of pregnancy: "A normal pregnancy lasts only 40 weeks, a relatively short amount of time in your whole life."

Shaming women considering abortion: "If you get the abortion, you will always remind him of something he isn't proud of."

Crisis Pregnancy Centers lie to women. They intimidate women. They manipulate women. No candidate should support their work--no matter what they believe about choice.

Following on his stance on science and opposition to common sense on social issues this visit fits nicely into his foolish and uninformed caricature.
