In the early 1990s, she led a fight to get the American Bar Association to reverse its pro-abortion rights policy. She lost.

I think the position she advocated was agnostic - she wanted the entirety of the ABA membership to vote on the position, rather than have the ABA leadership develop a position without the support of a membership vote.

Another little tidbit. Thanks. We need more FACTS here. We don't need someone who is moderately pro-life, or doesn't care much one way or the other. We need someone who is strongly pro-life. I'm sorry, but that one issue will determine my view of Harriet Miers, and as I have said before, will determine whether or not the millions of pro-life conservatives who turned out for Bush in 2002 and 2004 turn out again in 2006. Anything less than a staunch social conservative just won't cut the mustard.

But it tells me she's not a hard-left pro-abort or she wouldn't have fought it.
