*Gingrich tells 21 bald-faced lies to Brinkley on ABC*

On Sunday's "Brinkley", Gingrich said he "supported the 
availability" of federally financed abortions for women who are 
victims of rape or incest. "I think you should have funding in 
the case of rape or incest or life of the mother," he said.

Gingrich has voted to *DENY* women access to abortions in cases 
of rape and incest on *21* separate occasions. On *17* of those 
occasions, Gingrich voted to deny women access to abortions even 
if their *LIVES* were at risk.
