No. In this particular matter they are spineless, political opportunists. Rather than put the best construction on things in defense of the unborn, they fear how loud liberals will squawk as their sacrament of abortion is withheld in the interest of what is good and right.
Are Mitt Romney, John Ashcroft, Sean Hannity and Mark Levin the liberal media?

Uh... NO. You're clearly not very familiar with the named individuals, particularly Ashcroft or Levin. If you think there's any chance of putting "best construction" on the fiasco Akin put forth, you're beyond hope. it can't be done and that's why he needs to go in spite of himself.
He's caused tremendous harm to the pro-life movement with his foolish statements. It remains to be seen how contained the damage will be on the election.
