as I said a few moments ago in my 1-minute speech, I would be spending the better part of this next hour on America's most costly battle, the one that Winston Churchill said was the greatest battle in American history, the campaign in the Ardennes Forest of Europe. Churchill was correct. If we go by ``killed in action and wounded in action,'' his words were true. His exact words were, ``This is undoubtedly the greatest battle of the war, and will, I believe, be regarded as an ever famous American victory.'' Before I do that, it is my desire, Mr. Speaker, to read slowly an article from the Washington Post on Wednesday that I believe is the great moral battle of our time. The unending death total of almost 4,500 Americans in their mother's wombs every single day. Still, a million and a half abortions every year. It is a death toll that is way past 30 million just since the Roe versus Wade decision, one of the most evil decisions by a court in all of recorded history, a decision based on a total lie.
