2012 GOP presidential candidates Mitt Romney and Rick Perry issued a statements today criticizing Vice-President Joe Biden for his comments regarding China’s one-child policy.
Mitt Romney:
“Instead of condoning the policy, Vice President Biden should have condemned it in the strongest possible terms,” Mr. Romney’s statement read. “There can be no defense of a government that engages in compulsory sterilization and forced abortions in the name of population control.”
Rick Perry:
“China’s one child policy has led to the great human tragedy of forced abortions throughout China, and Vice President Biden’s refusal to ‘second-guess’ this horrendous policy demonstrates great moral indifference on the part of the Obama Administration. Americans value life, and we deserve leaders who will stand up against such inhumanity, not cast a blind eye.”
