We thought you would appreciate this information, which contains some background on some of those signing this statement. </FONT></div> <div><FONT face="Verdana, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif" size=2>This effort, led by former EMILY'S List Executive Director and now-Congresswoman Rosa DeLauro (D-CT), is absurd. <B>While the statement says that "we work every day to advance respect for life," over 60% of those Democrats signing this statement voted against the Partial Birth Abortion Ban.</B> The only thing "Historic" about this statement is its unprecendented level of
Democratic spin and deceit toward Catholics across the nation. </FONT></div> <div><FONT face="Verdana, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif" size=2>Please <A href="http://www.gop.com/stf/?sid=5783&fn=cath030206g" target=_blank>spread the word</A>, and thank you for your continued support!</FONT></div> <div><FONT face="Verdana, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif" size=2>Sincerely,</FONT></div> <div><FONT face="Verdana, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif" size=2><B><I>Martin Gillespie</I></B><BR>RNC Director of Catholic Outreach</FONT></div> <HR> <div><FONT face="Verdana, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif" size=2><B><I>35 Of The 55 Catholic House Democrats That Signed The "Catholic Statement Of Principles" Have Voted Against The Partial Birth Abortion Ban.</I></B> </FONT></div> <div><FONT face="Verdana, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif" size=2>Rep.
