Abortions Rising Under Bush?

On Meet the Press last week, Howard Dean asked: "You know that abortions have gone up 25 percent since George Bush was President?"

In a new release, the non-partisan organization FactCheck.org says not only that "Dean was wrong," but that he was wrong "by a wide margin."

Readers of this blog may recall that I interacted with Glenn Stassen, the main perpetuator of this information, in various posts. Michelle Malkin has also dealt with the myth a number of times (e.g., here).
