The most confusing thing she’s EVER seen

Renee Ellmers bounced back and forth on whether she’d support a ban on late-term abortions: 

Some pro-life groups were surprised by Ellmers’ objections to the bill, but Ellmers insisted on Wednesday that she changed her position because the bill has changed since she last voted on it. “It really isn’t the same as it was last year,” Ellmers told me. “It is the most confusing thing I’ve ever seen.” […] 

If she’s really that confused about what’s put in front of her in DC, she REALLY needs to come home and be replaced by SOMEONE — anyone — more competent.  The Weekly Standard called ol’ Renee out on her alleged confusion:
