Wayne Besen’s hateful sidekick over at the comically-named Truth Wins Out, Evan Hurst, speculates that AFTAH pulled a post from today because we did not want to offend National Organization for Marriage (NOM). Yes, and no. We pulled the post because a Tweet we thought was produced by NOM was actually put up by a NOM ally, Louis Marinelli (who was heavily involved in NOM’s multi-city “Summer for Marriage Tour”). The tweet, shown at right, is unfortunate — coming as it does from a pro-family leader who should know better — but much less so than if it had been produced by the leading advocacy group for traditional marriage. I apologize for the error. We will have more on this story later. — Peter LaBarbera, www.aftah.org

In our e-mail newsletter today, and our article, “Abortion and Homosexuality Movements Are Linked in their War Against Life and Marriage,” I erroneously stated — relying on a web news report — that today President Obama would be signing “a pro-abortion Executive Order that overturns a 1984 pro-life policy implemented by President Ronald Reagan, thus allowing U.S. taxpayer dollars to be used to provide and promote abortions oversees.” However, Obama did NOT sign the order, which would reverse the so-called “Mexico City Policy.” Pro-abortion activists are anticipating that Obama will reverse the pro-life policy (they call it a “gag rule”); pro-life forces hope he will keep it, but would be surprised if he does.
