Why the ugly Republican lie about Dems and infanticide matters

[MadameButterfly]

4. We shouldn't underestimate the importance of attacking these falsehoods

They are accusing Dems of murder because to make the real harm of their abortion policies seem justified.

When John Kerry was falsely accused of war crimes, cowardice, and lying about his Swift Boat heroism, he was advised not to give it attention because it was so ridiculous. Then it got legs. By the time he spoke out it was too late. His biggest strength had become his biggest weakness. I spoke with a Democratic friend of mine last week who STILL thought Kerry had lied about his Swift Boat service.

Now "Swift Boating" is by definition going after a politicians' greatest strength and making it a liability.
The Republicans are Swift Boating us on abortion. The infanticide piece is becoming a talking point. We've got to put an end to it NOW. These claims are worthy of a major media campaign if not libel suits.
