Get real. Anybody that has served in any legislative role has always voted for things that are diametrically opposed to what they believe. These bills are always stuffed with ten million things that are unrelated to the central issue. It’s like the Blunt amendment was put on as a rider the other day to something completely unrelated. To pretend you don’t know this is beyond the pale.

So, Santorum holds his nose and votes for funding baby murderers, and, well, that's ok, "I took one for the team." And babies die! And they did it with my tax payer money

What a crock of crap! To say that a politician would have his feet in the fire and forced to vote to fund a group of baby murders is RIDICULOUS. What are these jerks you're talking about? Political Whores?

I just can't believe you said that. Because one lemming jumps off a cliff, so should the rest. I feel sorry for how you look at moral judgments and moral responsibilities of our political representatives. Pathetic!

Romney used the same attack on Gingrich:

The commercial cites H.R. 1078, the Global Warming Prevention Act of 1989, as the Gingrich- and Pelosi-backed legislation related to the one-child policy. The bill involves supporting both the United Nations Food and Agriculture Program and the United Nations Development Program, among other initiatives, and had 144 cosponsors.

So Newt supported abortion. You can't be a legislator and not be accused of almost anything. If you can find a single stand-alone bill that was only one issue that involved abortion you can make the charge. Otherwise, it's just a cheap shot.
