Update: Ok, it makes more sense now.
Premise #1: Abortion is not an issue.
It is the least important political question I can think of, yet demands so much attention. Contraceptives and Birth Control exist. Lets get those to the people, and move on with our lives!
Premise #2: Bush and his Religious Right get votes when they speak out about Abortion.
Conclusion: Bush is gauranteeing votes by making abotion and issue by purposefully decieving the public about the reality of abortions alternatives.
