AmP mentioned in Aussie newspaper
... On Monday [Barack Obama] added insult to injury by repeatedly accusing the National Right to Life movement of lying about his voting record. It had referred to his stand as an Illinois state senator on the Born Alive Infant Protection Act - banning the infanticide of babies that survived abortion procedures - which he opposed. For all his confident assurances to the contrary, within 24 hours the Obama campaign was obliged to concede that he had misrepresented his previous position.
Again the blogosphere was up in arms, posing the question: how could he have expected to get away with false claims about matters of public record? As one much-read blogger and lay theologian, Thomas Peters, put it: "Only laziness or intentional story-burying in the media can kill this embarrassing (and revealing) story."
Reader Aaron tells me:
Christopher Pearson is a mainstream Australian journalist and also a Catholic. He is well-known for his views and often writes about liturgy even in The Australian Newspaper. Today was on Obama and abortion and you got a mention. Your quote was also the highlighted quote in the article.The author is quoting this blog post of mine: "Video: Obama lies by calling pro-lifers ... liars" (Aug 18)
Cool, that makes three recent citations.
