And the anti-life commercials depicting back allay abortions if Bush is elected, are probably having an effect on some suburban women voters. MOre WhopperAl scare tactics....and lies...it is a shame as the residents of Washinton State seem smarter than to believe what never was. The numbers of "back alley" abortions were ALWAYS exaggerated by pro abortion leaders. <<<<Dr. Bernard Nathanson -- who was one of the original leaders of the American pro-abortion movement and co-founder of N.A.R.A.L. (National Abortion Rights Action League), and who has since become pro-life -- admits that he and others in the abortion rights movement intentionally fabricated the number of women who allegedly died as a result of illegal abortions. How many deaths were we talking about when abortion was illegal? In N.A.R.A.L. we generally emphasized the drama of the individual case, not the mass statistics, but when we spoke of the latter it was always "5,000 to 10,000 deaths a year." I confess that I knew the figures were totally false, and I suppose the others did too if they stopped to think of it. But in the "morality" of the revolution, it was a useful figure, widely accepted, so why go out of our way to correct it with honest statistics.>>>>> Bernard Nathanson, M.D., Aborting America (New York: Doubleday, 1979).
