I fully agree with you. A perfect, non-abortion example of this is the whole "Death Panel" fabrications. Palin took one line, harped on it, spun the issue and then the whole party jumped on board.
And you're absolutely right, it goes like that for both parties. Some on the Right see the bill as far too expensive (rightfully so), then they Left spins the topic that the Right is against people that can't afford health insurance being given health care.
