WASHINGTON – Thousands gathered on Thursday in the nation’s capital for the annual March for Life rally that seeks to turn attention back to the abortion issue following the media lovefest that was President Barack Obama’s inauguration.

“I do not believe the pro-life movement has failed overall, in the sense that what we have been doing is wrong, or that what we have been aiming for is hopeless,” said Maria McFadden Maffucci, editor of the Human Life Review, in response to critics who say the pro-life movement had made little progress under staunch pro-life President George W.

“I believe that pro-life individuals have failed to make the protection of the unborn an actual priority,” Maffucci contended in the statement issued by the Westchester Institute for Ethics and the Human Person. “The current election was not ‘about’ abortion; many who voted for Obama voted for him in spite of, not because of, his position on abortion.” the rest
