Wingnuts Gearing Up To Battle Mike Castle?

Filed in National by on August 16, 2009

To the myopic abortion industrial complex on the right (that needs to keep birth control and safe sex information away from teens in order to protect their vacation homes and private jets), Mike Castle looks like a liberal. Here, for example is the “Jeremiah Films” blog take on Castle:

Tax and spend Republican Michael Castle on Abortion:

* Voted YES on expanding research to more embryonic stem cell lines. (Jan 2007)

* Voted YES on making it a crime to harm a fetus during another crime. (Feb 2004)

* Voted YES on banning partial-birth abortion except to save mother’s life. (Oct 2003)

* Voted NO on forbidding human cloning for reproduction & medical research. (Feb 2003)

* Voted YES on federal crime to harm fetus while committing other crimes. (Apr 2001)

* Voted YES on banning partial-birth abortions. (Apr 2000)

* Voted NO on barring transporting minors to get an abortion. (Jun 1999)

* Rated 30% by NARAL, indicating a pro-life voting record. (Dec 2003)

* Emergency contraception for rape victims at all hospitals. (Sep 2006)

* Rated 10% by the NRLC, indicating a pro-choice stance. (Dec 2006)

Everyone knows about Castle’s all out war on the American fetus – but it is interesting to me that his record his being discussed now. I searched and didn’t find any obvious links between Christine O’Donnell and Jeremiah Films. That is not to say that those connections don’t exists.

  1. I wonder if the right wing is trying to pressure Castle not to run. First there was the townhall meeting and now this.
