Ohio Congressman Tim Ryan has pretended to be a pro-life Catholic for years but now he says that talking to women helped change his mind into becoming pro-choice. This, of course, is malarkey. I don’t understand how talking to anyone could convince anyone that a baby is not a human being.

I’m thinking he wanted to cash those fat checks from EMILY’s List and Planned Parenthood. Hey, baby killers’ checks don’t bounce.

He wrote in an op-ed, “These women gave me a better understanding of how complex and difficult certain situations can become. And while there are people of good conscience on both sides of this argument, one thing has become abundantly clear to me: the heavy hand of government must not make this decision for women and families.”

Right the heavy hand of government is much better off telling you what health insurance you should have, what kind of toilet you should have, or what kind of light bulbs you should have.

He added, “each and every American deserves the right to deal with these difficult situations in consultation with their families, close friends, or religious advisers.”

Douglas Johnson of National Right to Life Committee, has called Ryan a “pro-life impersonator” and notes he’s never consistently voted pro-life and that he’s voted “against” pro-lifers more than he has for them throughout his time in office.

Guy was a poser from the get go. Now at least he’s honest. He’s a pro-abortion Democrat. Hey Cecile Richards, send checks.
