my father often said...
I grew up in a staunch Republican household. Dad's been a fiscally conservative member of the NRA since 1955, and votes a straight Republican ticket. However, he and I are pro-choice for the same reason:
Thomas Jefferson once said "The government that governs best is the government that governs LEAST." I don't believe in the government telling me about a choice I can't or shouldn't have. I also wonder: If they start with outlawing abortion, where will they stop? Will developmentally disabled people be sterilized? What else won't I be able to do with my own body. I realize that's kind of an extreme example, but you get what I mean.
