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."
