Let's set aside for the moment all the Republicans' not-so-subtle national security scare tactics of recent years equating a vote for Democrats with a vote for Al Qaeda. And let's ignore all the ugly gay-baiting with which the modern GOP drives its base to the polls. (Stay home Tuesday and, soon, sodomites will be setting up recruiting booths at your local day care!) Hell, let's even disregard all those giant placards featuring aborted fetuses of which pro-lifers are so enamored. (Better still: As I was typing the above sentence, I received an email from gopusa warning: "You'll find this hard to believe, but in California and some other states, a parent can answer the telephone and hear these words: 'Your 13-year-old child died earlier today while having an abortion at Planned Parenthood. We need you to come in and identify her body.'" How's that for illustrative coincidence?) Even if we ignore all that, I still have two words for you: Terri Schiavo.

AGI claims that "false or misleading information that has long been promoted by antiabortion activists features prominently in the information that many states require doctors to provide to their patients."
