Murder, Abortion and the Right to Life

Sunday's shooting death of Dr. George Tiller has the abortion battle back in the news.  We get the latest from Wichita, Kansas and talk with right-to-life and right-to-choose advocates about the impact of violence and shifts in public opinion. Also, Sonia Sotomayor kicks off Senate visits today, and the Hummer may be on its way to China.

Sunday's shooting death of Dr. George Tiller has the abortion battle back in the news. We get the latest from Wichita, Kansas and talk with right-to-life and right-to-choose advocates about the impacts of violence and shifts in public opinion. Also, Sonia Sotomayor kicks off Senate visits today, and GM has marketed Hummers along with American patriotism. Will that still work if Hummers are made in China?
