His biological mother conceived him as an unmarried teenager. Now 75 years of age, he still speaks very lovingly about his childhood and the wonderful people who surrounded him as a young boy. It was this background that firmed up his opposition to abortion and his support for the pro-life movement. “I don’t have the right to any other view,” he once said. “My only emotion is gratitude, literally, for my life. If June and Ethel (his biological mother and grandmother) had been of less character, I would have never lived. These women gave me the gift of life.”
If he is, he’s been pretty quiet about it. But then again, speaking out at pro-life rallies probably wouldn’t have landed him quite as many great parts. Who is to say? One doesn’t have to wear the defence of life on one’s sleeve, so long as when push comes to shove, you know where you stand.

Yes, I remember reading those quotes from him in the early 1990s and they may not have been new then…I know he is a supporter of the Democrats. Hopefully he isn’t a waffler like so many other celebrities and politicians.
