Born Alive Infant Protection Act

The myth of the born-alive fetus has long been a weapon in the pro-life arsenal, one "kept alive" by misleading language, and by efforts to pass laws that further obfuscate and mislead.

Those of us waiting to hear the presidential candidates clarify their stances on abortion, women's health, equal pay and Supreme Court nominees had a lot to pay attention to tonight.

Bob Schieffer asked Senator Barack Obama and Senator John McCain "[c]ould either of you ever nominate someone to the Supreme Court who disagrees with you on this issue? Senator McCain?"

Senator John McCain repeated long debunked lies about Sen. Barack Obama's record on the Illinois Born Alive Protection Act.

Barack Obama and John McCain had a full discussion of sexual and reproductive health issues in the final presidential debate tonight.

The answer to "Who Is Barack Obama?" in a new McCain-Palin ad is "simply false", according to Factcheck.org.

John McCain may be attempting to tamp down anger at rallies for the Republican presidential ticket, but Sarah Palin continues to stoke her base with inaccuracies on Obama's position on abortion.

Palin continues desperate attacks repeating debunked abortion claim; The latest on ballot initiatives in South Dakota, Colorado and California; Victoria, Australia decriminalizes abortion; Pro-Obama Catholic lawyer resigns from board of Catholic school; HPV vaccine used by 25% of girls aged 13 to 17.

Described as a leading Catholic establishment figure who remains staunchly pro-life, Nicholas Cafardi is adding his voice to those who believe Obama's pro-education, pro-prevention policies to reduce unintended pregnancies make sense.

Senator John McCain repeated long debunked lies about Sen. Barack Obama's record on the Illinois Born Alive Protection Act, lies that have been repeated and discredited since Alan Keyes lost to Obama for Senate seat in 2004.
