Actually that is a "neo-conservative" view (specifically the "religious right). A TRUE conservative believes in as much financial conservation and as a little social restriction as possible, the rest is just details.

In this case, abortion is a civil liberty, therefore the right to do it should be upheld, as with homosexuality. As long as my freedom isn't being imposed upon, I don't care.
