Remember: 36th anniversary of Roe v. Wade

Dan Gilgoff, "Catholic Group Uses Obama Bio as Case Against Abortion in Inauguration Day Ad" (God & Country, January 20, 2009):
A conservative Catholic group called CatholicVote.org has a new antiabortion ad to coincide with Barack Obama's inauguration. It attempts to use Obama's own biography to make the antiabortion case. The spot features this script flashing across the screen in between clips of a fetus in the womb:

This child's future is a broken home . . .
he will be abandoned by his father . . .
his single mother will struggle to raise him . . .
despite the hardships he will endure
this child . . .
will become . . .
The 1st African American President.
Life . . .
Imagine the Potential.
