      Bottom line? She was what Carville had in mind when he made his hundred dollar bill comment.

        Who is saying that?

            At the time she made those statements there was no reason to believe she was lying. Now there is. Not seeing any conflict in those two positions.

              You can go one step further and weight the evidence:

              • there is no evidence to suggest that she was paid to say X (the "pro-choice" stuff)
              • now there is evidence indicating that she was paid to say Y (the "pro-life" stuff)
              • there is no evidence to suggest that she is being paid to say Z (her "deathbed confession" saying that she was paid to to say Y, including collaborating confession by the person who paid her)
              • there is no evidence to suggest that the collaborating confessor was paid to do so

              None of these need to change your conviction on the underlying pro-choice vs. pro-life issue, of course. Still, the evidence favors her "deathbed confession" being true.

              Separately, I am also curious if there are verified cases of former "pro-choice" spokespeople confessed to (or having been exposed) as being actually "pro-life" but merely toed the "pro-choice" line in public in exchange for material gains. Maybe there is zero "pro-life" person ever sold out to toe the "pro-choice" line in public?

                It shouldn't actually matter what one person thinks, whether she's telling the truth or not. Millions of people have had abortions, and millions of people think it's wrong.

                    She was a bad girl

                    Then she was a good girl

                    Now she appears to be somewhere in between

                          GQ talks about this, apparently now only available on the internet archive:

                          Segregationists, meanwhile, had their own racist reasons. George Wallace, the the longtime Republican governor of Alabama, four-time presidential candidate and outspoken segregationist who is often compared to Donald Trump, backed the legalization of abortion in the late 1960s because he claimed black women were “breeding children as a cash crop” and taking advantage of social welfare programs.

                          And the edited version:

                          George Wallace, the longtime governor of Alabama, a Democrat who would later join the far-right American Independent Party, four-time presidential candidate, and outspoken segregationist who is often compared to Donald Trump, backed the legalization of abortion in the late 1960s because he claimed black women were “breeding children as a cash crop” and taking advantage of social welfare programs.

                          "Now look here, you Baltic gas passer... " - Mik, 6/14/08

                          The saying, "Lite is just one damn thing after another," is a gross understatement. The damn things overlap.

                            I lived through George Wallace. Trump is NOTHING like George Wallace.

                              Right

                              Where did this nonsense come from?

                              who is often compared to Donald Trump

                              Not even close.

                                This is so awkwardly stupid that it scares me that people might actually believe it.
