Jim,

I did some more checking and found the following:
From this fact sheet (http://www.joinrudy2008.com/article/pr/828):

During Mayor Giuliani's Tenure In New York, Adoptions Increased 133% While Abortions Decreased 16.8%. (City Of New York Office Of Operations, Reengineering Municipal Services 1994-2001, p. 98; City of New York Administration of Children's Services Website, FY2003 Year End Report, http://www.nyc.gov/html/acs/downloads/pdf/stats_yearend_review03.pdf, Accessed 5/6/07; City Of New York, Human Resources Administration, "Executive Management Plan Fiscal Year 1988," 1988, p. xxi; City Of New York, Human Resources Administration, "Executive Management Plan Fiscal Year 1989," 1989, p. ix; Lisa M. Koonin, et al., "Abortion Surveillance – United States, 1993 And 1994," Centers For Disease Control And Prevention, http://www.cdc.gov/mmwr/preview/mmwrhtml/00049084.htm, 8/8/97; Lilo T. Strauss, et al., "Abortion Surveillance — United States, 2001," Centers For Disease Control And Prevention, http://www.cdc.gov/mmwr/preview/mmwrhtml/ss5309a1.htm, 11/26/04)

During Same Time Period, Abortions Nationwide Decreased 12.8%. (Lawrence Finer and Stanley Henshaw, "Estimates Of US Abortion Incidence, 2001-2003," Guttmacher Institute, www.guttmacher.org, 8/3/06)

Also, I found these articles about the author of the article you cited:

False Reporting By Steve Ertelt’s ‘LifeNews.com’ - Repeated By ‘World’ Magazine - Misled Christians To Think Bush Would Name Pro-Life Judges

AND,

LifeNews.com is Not LifeSiteNews.com.

I know it's to hard to know what to believe but I hope these links help us find the truth.

Best,
Ooh-Ah
