QUOTE: "We fed the public a line of deceit, dishonesty, a
fabrication of statistics and figures. We succeeded because the time was right
and the news media cooperated. We sensationalized the effects of illegal
abortions, and fabricated polls which indicated that 85 percent of the public
favored unrestricted abortion, when we knew it was only 5 percent. We
unashamedly lied, and yet our statements were quoted [by the media] as though
they had been written in law."
