Genius, i'm hardly a DU Troll. And i don't hate romney, he's second on my list. Read the actual article if you want to see romney is pro choice, if you hadn't notice because your blinders were on, it said this was an excerpt.

here's a few in the actual article if you were interested:

"I believe that abortion should be safe and legal in this country. I have since the time when my Mom took that position when she ran in 1970 as a U.S. Senate candidate. I believe that since Roe v. Wade has been the law for 20 years that we should sustain and support it, and I sustain and support that law and the right of a woman to make that choice."

"I respect and will fully protect a woman's right to choose. That choice is a deeply personal one, and the women of our state should make it based on their beliefs, not mine and not the government's."
-Mitt Romney in a 2002 GOP acceptance speech

Gubernatorial candidates Shannon O'Brien and Mitt Romney sparred yesterday over who was the strongest abortion rights supporter by touting endorsements from abortion rights groups and challenging each other's records on the issue..."There isn't a dime of difference between Mitt Romney's position on choice and [NARAL-endorsed] Shannon O'Brien," said Kerry Healey, Romney's running mate. Lynn Grefe, director of the Republican Pro-Choice Coalition, applauded Romney's "commitment to family planning and protecting a woman's right to choose" in a letter on Wednesday.

Romney has plenty of other socially liberal quotes and various other things, its silly of you to stick your head in the ground and pretend they never happened. My point was, romney should have just admitted he said he was pro choice in the past and has changed his mind, instead he wobbled around and claimed he never had that label.

Romney says he never called himself pro-choice. Show me a quote where he did, or admit that the title of this post is flawed. You cant say "Well, he never actually SAID IT, but I know what he meant, so he LIED." That is DU tactics. We can do better.
