Lies about reproductive health: La Malfa, Akin and Bachmann

Cancer-abortion link, legitimate rape and forced abortions in schools

Abortions do not give women cancer after all. California congressional candidate Doug La Malfa claimed that he learned about the mysterious cancer-abortion link from a paper written a few years ago. For a few years, he apparently believed that abortion actually caused cancer and recently said so in an interview. 

I haven’t read the paper that Doug La Malfa read or heard that statistic, but it does point to a serious trend of the Republican religious right spreading the most ridiculous untruths regarding women’s health in order to scare people into supporting Republican conservative candidates and ideals.
