Once again, the initial point of this series is to highlight the way we sometimes blindly follow and loyally defend public figures without carefully scrutinizing all of their positions on all of the issues. There are figures whom I have criticized as a writer and cartoonist, such as Congressman Steve King and Governor Sarah Palin whom people vehemently protected as if they were family members. The same people, sometimes in the same breath would attack me for being pro-abortion. I am not pro-abortion, however, it's not the only political or moral issue out there and I believe that it is used callously as a politically expedient campaign tool. New reveal that the ultimate conservative, Richard Nixon actually advocated aborting the children of interracial couples.
