Randall Terry is no match for Obama

The man who destroyed the antiabortion movement with his extremism is trying to use the president's visit to Notre Dame to advance his cause, but he will fail -- again.

    "Pro-Life" is not the majority

    To the troll claiming that a majority of Americans are pro-life:

    Actually, if you read that poll instead of quoting conservative talking points, around half of respondents didn't identify themselves as either pro-choice or pro-life. Only among people who chose one side or the other did the pro-life identification slightly edge out the pro-choice identification. There was no majority, but the plurality did not identify themselves as one or the other. Questions that ask about support for legal abortion are a better measure.
