During his campaign, Keyes pointed to parallels between abortion and terrorism, stating that both target innocent life. An August 17 Chicago Sun-Times article interpreted this statement as comparing doctors who performed abortions and women who received them to terrorists of the September 11, 2001 attacks. On a radio program, Keyes responded that this was a mischaracterization. He said he "never spoke of the women who have abortions or the physicians," and that his comment was instead directed toward the objectives behind abortion and terrorism. He explained his position was that the women "are themselves the victims" of an abortion industry that "gain[s] from the crisis of the woman and the death of the child." [12]

Wikipedia. Gasp. No, anything but that.

Dirtboy goes nearly hysterical with fright when someone posts from Wikipedia.

So how did he quit saying something he never said? That's what you said, unless you're going to claim now that this is not what you said.
