Brownback wasn’t always pro-life.

Reasons to agree:

1. Kansas Republican Party Chairman Tim Shallenburger said he remembered having a conversation with Brownback in 1994 when Brownback was running in the GOP primary for the U.S. House. After the conversation, Shallenburger said he left with the impression that Brownback was not pro-life. Link
2. David Gittrich, development director for the state's largest anti-abortion organization, Kansans for Life, said when Brownback first ran for Congress in 1994 'he was ill-informed.' Gittrich added, 'He didn't know whether he was pro-life or pro-choice.' ¦ Gittrich said he had heard from others that Brownback simply didn't understand the issues at the time." Link
3. As recently as 1994, the year of his first campaign for Congress, Brownback was a member in good standing of the moderate Republican establishment. Link
4. As primary day approached, (Brownback's opponent) noticed a change in his opponent's language. Brownback never used to mention abortion on the campaign trail. Now he was publicly pronouncing himself an abortion opponent. Link

Brownback is a hypocrite.
