Luksik recalls own pregancy in talking pro-life credentials
Underdog Republican Senate candidate Peg Luksik this week kept up the focus on abortion, her signature political issue to which she has recently returned in earnest as she looks to draw a contrast with front-runner Pat Toomey.
In a four-and-a-half-minute Web video, Luksik and her husband talk about their sixth pregnancy, and the dangers it posed to both her and their unborn child. Their sixth child, PJ, is also featured in the video.
Last week, Luksik pushed back against Toomey more directly than at any point during the long campaign, pointing out his past pro-choice positions.
See the video below.

So, Peg is proud of the choice she made? The point is, she had a choice. I wonder why she doesn’t trust anyone else to make their own choice. Why are “pro-life” types never against the death penalty? Or the Pentagon making a science of killing? Could it be that they are not REALLY pro-life but merely pro-control? Why do they want government out of their lives, but not someone else’s? Just askin’.

Kevin, the Catholic Church is pro-life and against the death penalty. Many Catholics follow that too. You are making straw man arguments, and not even good ones.

Pro-lifers want to protect innocent life. The death penalty is essentially only applied to murderers, who have taken an innocent life – usually a bunch of them. So the death penalty protects innocent lives by punishing those who take innocent life. The military is sworn to protect against enemies who seek to kill innocent Americans. I don’t see the disconnect.
