David Brody of the Christian Broadcasting Network asked Sam Brownback about his flip-flop on the abortion issue. He denied ever being pro-choice. Here is the rest of what Mr. Brody had to say (thanks to EFM for the scoop):

Here’s some more information coming from Brownback’s office. They tell me that in 1994, he was trying to stay clear of labels. Yet they admit that Brownback at the time made a mistake in messaging the way he came across. Still, they say every vote and every letter he’s ever written have all been supporting the pro-life position.

Now, there’s one other interesting tidbit. Apparently, back in 1994, Brownback said that his views on abortion are "more in line with Nancy Kassebaum". Well, Nancy Kassebaum was pro-choice This has been reported by The New Republic. In their story, they say that Brownback said that to the head of Kansans for Life back in 1994. I asked Brownback’s office about this in a follow up phone call. His office says Brownback never recalls saying anything like that.

I am fine with Brownback calling himself pro-life because his actions attest to that. What I do have a problem with is his calling into question Romney's "pro-lifeness" because of something Romney said in the past, when Romney's actions have also proven him to be a bonafide pro-lifer and Brownback has said questionable things in the past as well.

Hypocrisy is not a pretty trait, Sam.
