The Torah does not allow abortion under any circumstances for goyim. (see Maseches Sanhedrin 57b). It is allowed for yidden, although when it comes to policy decisions in a mostly goyishe country, if we want to think of the torah approach, we have to think what the halacha is for goyim. That is why the pro-life position is consistent with halacha. Situations in which the “life of the mother” is threatened to the point of abortion being necessary is a rare occurance these days, as medicine has advanced greatly, into areas such as maternal-fetal medicine, obstetric medicine, etc. A goy who aborts is considered chayav misa even. This is according to R’ Unterman, R’ Miller, Reb Moshe, and many other sources. Paladino is not perfect, and has skeletons in his closet, but it is not my place to judge whether or not he is a good Catholic. The question is who has better policies for those of us who pay taxes, are committed to strong values, etc. It is a no-brainer- Paladino .

I don;t know about you, but I like keeping the money I make. If taxes were cut, remember, we could all give a lot more tzedakah to acheinu bnei yisroel in need.

And you should have some kavod hatorah. It is RABBI Yehuda Levin. The man is a mentsch and is on the nesius of the Igud HaRabbonim of America. His actions are a kiddush hashem. He is also a talmid chacham. (I have spoken to him on several occasions, and it is obvious when you speak to him that he knows shas well).
