Where Is Obama's Truth on Late Term Abortion?
The "partial birth abortion" debate is an utterly pointless distraction, and Obama has completely played into the hands of the anti-choice organizations who want only to entrap him in political sport.

Many women who are avowed Hillary Clinton supporters are declaring they won't vote for Obama in the fall. I get the anger and the disappointment. But to quote SNL's Amy Poehler and Seth Meyers: Really?

McCain's record is really, really anti-choice. Not only anti-choice, but anti-sex ed, anti-emergency contraception, and anti-women.

Last night, the Senate rejected two anti-choice amendments, but the razor-thin margin by which we won these votes is a reminder of why elections matter.

On The Return of Jezebel James, I expect that the cultural politics of pregnancy, surrogacy, and motherhood will intersect with witty dialogue, humorous situations, and great entertainment.

We can be sure that in the coming general election the Republicans will once again trot out Rovian anti-abortion, anti-gay issues to whip Catholics into line.

Iraq is not the only unpopular war Bush started that McCain hopes to continue. The war on Americans' sex lives is another and McCain has already proven himself a good, loyal general.

I fully expect that whichever of the two, Obama or Clinton, become president, I will be fighting with them for more on reproductive rights than either is ready to give.

What women do not need now is a divisive fight within the Democratic Party over which candidate is better on women's issues such as choice.

Sadly, if most Americans credit the pro-choice birth control movement for anything, it's for the dubious honor of protecting vice.

The most pro-life thing a president can do is support the right to use contraception and make it widely available.

Not a single amendment was offered in the House by pro-choice "champions" to bring a halt to the funding of programs that spread ignorance in the era of AIDS.

My first face-to-face encounter with Rep. Henry Hyde, the vociferously anti-choice, then-chair of the House Judiciary Committee, was also my first congressional testimony.

Connecticut's new law goes back to basics. It is a triumph of state over church. It insures that women who have been raped get the care they need when they enter a hospital.

In Unborn in the USA, sometimes the protagonists succeed in changing people's minds about abortion, but they never succeed in compelling obedience to the unenforceable.
