Is the story true about Romney at the at-risk Pregnant mother-- "Why should you have it easy?"

My wife heard a story today that Mitt Romney was trying to convince a woman to have her baby even though there was a chance she could die and the Mormon church leaders allowed the woman to end the pregnancy.

He said to the woman "Why should you have it so easy?"

IF this story is true. Can anyone give us any more details?

Would hate his guts if they knew him in school, or when he was a bishop or whatever he was.

who must lose her baby in order to survive so she can raise her other babies.

Mitt is the one who has had it easy. And he can't even see that. It's a shame he won't go broke and have to learn from life's struggles like the rest of us.
