a few years ago when someone asked about mit romneys stance on abortion, he stated that as long roe v wade was still legal, he would support it. but now since he's running for president on the conservative ticket, he has come out as saying that he now disagrees with the court ruling and will work to have it overturned, and that he has changed his mind. does make him a flip flopper?

in 2002, pelosi et al, to quote u, were in favor of waterboarding and other torture, but now, theyre trying to get a democrat into the presidency so theyve come out against it, possibly saying that theyve changed their minds after new evidence comes to light....is this flip flopping...and if so, then both parties are flip floppers, and nothing that they ever say should ever be trusted.

ok...discuss

Mitt Romney didn't change his stance on abortion just before he decided to run for the Republican nomination. As far as I know he changed his views while he was governor of Massachusetts and never passed a "pro-choice" bill. He also freely admits he was wrong on the issue and has received awards from the pro-life side. Nancy Pelosi and others never said anything about water-boarding until the media made it an issue and they realized they could get some political gains from it. Now they act like destroying CIA interrogation tapes is cause for investigation. It's ridiculous to say the least. Were these tapes supposed to be shown on CNN or something?
