LAT Continues to Propagate Abortion Falsehoods
A defender of abortion falsely claims in a letter in today's Los Angeles Times (Sat. 11/10/07), "The Bible does mention abortion."

The folks at The New York Times are experts at obfuscation, aren't they?

Bozell Column: 'Bella' and the Pro-life Movie Trend
In a political act loaded with cultural symbolism, Senator Hillary Clinton endorsed an effort to earmark a million taxpayer dollars for a museum in Bethel, New York celebrating the circus of 1969, the Woodstock music festival.
