Sed Contra: Pro-Life Laws, Politicians produce results

Michael J. New at Public Discourse (which is dishing out the good stuff):

During the past 35 years, the pro-life movement has made real progress. The number of abortions has fallen in 12 out of the past 14 years and the total number of abortions has declined by 21 percent since 1990. These gains are largely due to pro-life political victories at the federal level in the 1980s and at the state level in the 1990s which have made it easier to pass pro-life legislation.

Thank you, pro-Obama Catholics, for giving us the occasion to revisit these important facts.
