Oh please. Nobody ever voted FOR partial birth abortions. He voted against a bill that would have banned them because it was poorly written. If you want to know how he feels about partial birth abortion read his own words:
Quote:
On an issue like partial birth abortion, I strongly believe that the state can properly restrict late-term abortions. I have said so repeatedly. All I've said is we should have a provision to protect the health of the mother, and many of the bills that came before me didn't have that.

The problem is that people hear of a bill that will do "X", but fail to understand how it will do that, what else it will do, and how it will effect other things. You really do have to understand how every piece of a bill will interpreted into law and how that will impact things even beyond the initial "X". Without an allowance for the mothers life/health to trump that of an unborn babies you could have a woman die trying to protect a fetus even if it's not what she or anyone else wants. Bills, and laws, worded incorrectly can have disastrous effects on society.
