McCain goes to say he does not support Roe V. Wade and it should be overturned.

He supports the idea of Abortion in the event of rape.
But is against the idea that rape test should be required to prove up for an abortion.
So why oppose abortion?
Its not McCains job to vote based off of his own beliefs.
Its McCains job to vote based on those he represents.
But i suppose that ideal has long since been lost.

Abortion is a womans right.
The child is not considered human until the child is born. (legally speaking)
So (legally speaking) how can the child be (legally) said to be human as it applies to this (legally controversial) decision?
(CNN) -- Norma McCorvey won't be celebrating the 25th anniversary of the historic Roe vs. Wade decision that legalized abortion.
McCorvey is "Jane Roe," the pseudonym she assumed to remain anonymous as the lead plaintiff in the case that legalized abortion in the United States.
"I'm very sad (about the anniversary)," she told CNN Interactive in a telephone interview. "But this year, I've got so much to do, I don't have time to sit down and be sad."
Once an abortion-rights supporter, the 50-year-old McCorvey has switched sides: She's now a vocal anti-abortion activist. She has started a ministry called Roe No More to fight against abortion rights with the aim of creating a mobile counseling center for pregnant women in Dallas.
You'd have a point if McCain said he would issue an executive order to overturn Roe V. Wade or something similar.

No, Actually - it doesnt matter.
"roe" isnt the enforcer of that law.
The justice system is. The courts decided it.
The courts say its a woman's right. What roe says becomes a moot point after the courts decision. (legally speaking)
When they talk about roe vs wade
they're not talking about being buddies with roe and buying her flowers.
