Did you actually read that statement in #59? He wasn’t for abortion at all - in fact, he states he joins the President in opposition to abortion and government support of agencies which favor it.

Dear Lord, I marvel at the ignorance of some of my fellow human beings.

While you are marveling at ignorance, read post 59 again, you didn’t understand it.

Santorum says that he was pro-abortion all of his life, until he decided to run for office (like Romney).
“I was basically pro-choice all my life, until I ran for Congress”

1990 was when he started running for office, he ran as a “Progressive Conservative”, that weak statement I posted was his “conversion” position paper for the campaign, as you can read in that 1990 position paper, he was still pretty soft on the issue.

In 1996 he was supporting removing abortion from the party platform, by endorsing Specter for president, who was running on that platform.
