“McCain opposes a woman’s right to choose.”

MoveOn.org has attacked Sen. John McCain in an e-mail to its membership, urging people to email it to “friends, family and co-workers.”

The e-mail lists 10 items about McCain, beginning with the statement, “His carefully crafted positive image relies on people not knowing this stuff — and you might be surprised by some of it.”

The fourth item on the list states, “McCain opposes a woman’s right to choose. He said, ‘I do not support

Roe vs. Wade

. It should be overturned.’ ”

MoveOn is on solid ground here. McCain calls himself prolife. During the primaries in 2007, he asserted several times that he thought

Roe vs. Wade

should be overturned, and that message is featured prominently on McCain’s campaign Web site.

“John McCain believes

Roe vs. Wade

is a flawed decision that must be overturned, and as president he will nominate judges who understand that courts should not be in the business of legislating from the bench,” the Web site states. “Constitutional balance would be restored by the reversal of

Roe vs. Wade

, returning the abortion question to the individual states.”

We find MoveOn’s statement about McCain’s position on abortion to be True.
