I just ran across an article on FOX that made me fall off my chair laughing. Here's an excerpt:

WASHINGTON — Senate Minority Leader Harry Reid (search) and other Democrats on Thursday demanded that former Education Secretary William Bennett (search) apologize for remarks on his radio program linking the crime rate and the abortion of black babies.
Bennett responded that the comments, made Wednesday on his "Morning in America" (search) show, had been mischaracterized and that his point was that the idea of supporting abortion to reduce crime was "morally reprehensible."
The author of "The Book of Virtues," answering a caller's question, took issue with the hypothesis put forth in a recent book that one reason crime is down is that abortion is up.
"But I do know that it's true that if you wanted to reduce crime, you could, if that were your sole purpose, you could abort every black baby in this country, and your crime rate would go down," Bennett said.

Any comments?
