The denials keep coming. Rep. George Radanovich (R-CA), who was rumored to have yelled “baby killer” at Rep. Bart Stupak (D-MI) during a floor debate on abortion says he’s not the man of the hour.

“In light of media speculation that I was the one who made the comment, I would like to set the record straight and be clear that I did not make the statement,” Radanovich says in a statement. “I condemn any manner of disrespect and name calling among my colleagues. While I am disappointed in Rep. Stupak’s decision to vote for this legislation, I would never attack his character and decisions in such an unacceptable manner.”

In the great tradition of Washington whodunnits, the hunt for the actual heckler continues.
