Abortion Rights Are Lesbian Rights: Op-Ed
For many lesbians, the attacks on abortion availability can be background noise.

Pat Robertson's New Theory on Lesbians and Abortion
Pat Robertson has come up with a new theory as to why liberals support abortion rights — it’s because they want to put lesbians and straight women on “a level playing field.” On a recent episode of The 700 Club, discussing the battle over federal funding for Planned Parenthood, Robertson says President Obama supports the organization because of what the antigay minister calls the Left’s “culture of death.” Then Robertson says to cohost Terry Meeuwsen, “If a woman is a lesbian, what advantage does she have over a married woman?
