Again, let’s talk about the video.

That was what date? ANSWER 1995. Santorum acknowledged that he was NOT a strong pro-life adevocate then.

That was a SPEECH he made. Santorum applauds, SO WHAT?

That was 1995.

He said he changed his mind because he “sat down and read the literature. Scientific literature.”

In other words, like Reagan, who made abortion LEGAL in California, he GENUINELY CHANGED HIS MIND.

Yes, Rick Santorum was pro-abortion, and first ran as a “Progressive Conservative”, and that is what he had printed into his campaign materials.

His wife was in fact pro-abortion too.

YOU DON’T HAVE TO TELL ME ABOUT HIS PAST. He has told us about it.

The point is people make mistakes. The important point is KNOWING YOUR MISTAKES, DO YOU DWELL ON THEM OR CORRECT THEM?

What did Santorum do to redeem his mistakes. I already showed you his legislation.

You have not for once, told me that these did nothing to redeem what he supported in the past.

In fact even after he lost his 2006 election, HE CONTINUED BEING AN ADVOCATE FOR LIFE.

How do I know this? Santorum is a regular substitute for Bill Bennett on his show, Morning in America which is broadcasr on drive time in the morning in New York. I HEAR HIM ALMOST EVERY WEEK ON FRIDAYS. The man GENUINELY FIGHTS FOR LIFE.

He debates callers who disagree with him on such issues as requiring ULTRA SOUND for mothers who plan to have abortions.

I bet you would not have voted for Ronald Reagan because of what he did as governor of California.

You live in the past (1995 to be specific ) I live in the present and look forward to the future.

I’d rather look at HIS ACTIONS as Senator. They do not show anything close to support for abortion. They show a STRONG OPPOSITE.

This explains your obtuseness.

Santorum claims that he quit being pro-abortion in preparation to enter politics, that quote of yours “sat down and read the literature. Scientific literature.” is supposed to be describing the 1990 election change.

Now explain why five years later he FORMALLY endorsed and supported a Presidential candidate, running on the platform to make the Republican party, pro-abortion?
