Clear as mud: Herman Cain gives incoherent answer on abortion

Ellis Henican’s facial expression sums this clip up nicely, and trust me I can’t believe I just wrote that.

Freeze it at the 00:54 mark and you’ll see what I mean.

I do believe Cain when he says that he is personally “pro-life, period.” But it makes no sense for him to say he is for “protecting the sanctity of life from conception” on the one hand, and yet on the other if a woman wants to have an abortion, “that’s her choice.”

Huh?

UPDATE (TRS): I know this was posted on the Piers Morgan thread, but it’s become such a hot news item that we felt that it was worth highlighting in a separate post. And this video certainly demonstrates well the collective confusion that many of us are having over his stance(s) on abortion.
