159. I suggest his "reconsideration" of the abortion issue was not

a principled one, but one of crass opportunism. If one believes that abortion is murder, there is no way in hell one can crossover to the opposite point of view. There are two plausible explanations for this: either Dennis lied when he said he was against abortion, or he is lying now when he says it doesn't matter.

While there have been cases where abortion rights proponents have become prolife as in the case of Norma McCorvey, the Roe in Roe v. Wade, there is no one that I am aware of that went from the prolife camp to the abortion rights camp.
