...folks at Tell the Truth found me I don't know, but I must say they picked a relatively good target for anti-abortion propaganda: I am resolutely pro-choice, but not without reservations; late-term abortions should be banned, I think, so long as appropriate exceptions are made, and waiting periods and other devices to discourage the practice seem reasonable...
