Yes, but he was also a champion of civil rights, just like our party's early leaders were, and that outweighs any position he took on abortion in my mind.

He was also a champion of sending a lot of young black men to prison with his enactment of the strictest (and dumbest) drug laws in the country up to that point, so that kind of cancels out the whole "big civil rights advocate" in my mind.

Oldiesfreak, like most of the REPUBLICANS CHAMPIONED TEH CIVIL RIGHTS!!1 types, seems to not understand that ending Jim Crow/enforcing the 15th amendment properly was only one part of the civil rights movement.
