Judie Brown On HHS Conscience Proposal
While Brown was pleased the proposed regulation would enforce conscience laws, she also said the wording was disappointing. Previous drafts of the regulation recognized and defined abortion to include hormonal contraceptives. "This is a bittersweet moment for preborn children," Brown said. "While we recognize the proposal as a sign that the federal government wants to stop the type of discriminatory action recommended by the American Medical Association earlier this year, it is clear that the Department of Health and Human Services will continue to pander to the proponents of chemical abortion."Click Here For The Full Story......

US Report: Over 900,000 Doses RU-486 Have Been Prescribed
WASHINGTON, DC -- The U.S. Government Accountability Office (GAO) has concluded that the Food and Drug Administration (FDA) followed all the correct procedures when it approved the abortion drug RU-486, sold in the US as Mifeprex, in September 2000. Since then, the report notes, the drug has been prescribed at least 900,000 times. The report says that the FDA has also not erred in its subsequent handling of the abortion drug, despite the deaths of several women who used it. The GAO is not an independent non-government body, but is known as "the investigative arm of Congress" and "the congressional watchdog."Click Here For The Full Story......

60 Children Killed In U.S. Air Raid
There is convincing evidence that 60 children and 30 adults were killed in a US air strike in western Afghanistan last Friday, the United Nations says. The US originally said its planes had killed 30 militants in the attack in the province of Herat. President Karzai sacked two senior Afghan army officers over the incident. The US says Afghan forces led the operation in the district of Shindand. The incident has worsened relations between Mr Karzai and foreign forces. On Monday the government said it wanted to renegotiate the terms under which US-led forces and NATO-led forces operate in Afghanistan. If confirmed, the Shindand incident is one of the worst cases of foreign forces killing Afghan civilians.Click Here For The Full Story......

DENVER, Colorado -- Denver police arrested 31 protesters outside the Democratic presidential nominating convention on Tuesday, including 13 anti-abortion demonstrators. Eighteen people including out-of-state residents were arrested by the Denver police, bringing to 135 the total number of arrests since Saturday, before the convention opened, police said in an e-mailed statement.

Doctor 'Failed To Get Legal Consent For Late-Term Abortion'
A Melbourne doctor has been accused of unprofessional conduct after he performed a late-term abortion on an intellectually disabled woman who was raped by her father. Dr Mark Schulberg, a controversial late-term abortion specialist, fronted the Medical Practitioners Board over allegations he performed the termination at 26 weeks without gaining legal consent. It is alleged he also failed to contact police about the woman's pregnancy when he should have known she was incapable of consenting to sexual intercourse. Under Victorian law, the guardian of a woman with an intellectual disability cannot give consent on her behalf for an abortion. Instead, they must apply to the Victorian Civil and Administrative Tribunal for permission.Click Here For The Full Story......

Washington Times: Planned Parenthood Targets Blacks
The Washington Times - EditorialPlanned Parenthood, a self-styled "health care provider" and "informed educator" on women's sexual health, has been promoting abortion since its inception in 1916. This has had a devastating affect on America. Since the 1973 Supreme Court decision Roe v. Wade, which overturned most state and federal laws outlawing or restricting abortion, an estimated 48,6 million babies have been aborted, according to the National Right to Life Committee. In particular, blacks are disproportionately impacted by abortion. Is Planned Parenthood deliberately acting to reduce the black population? Is it practicing a form of eugenics?

John McCain's Real Abortion Record
By Chuck Baldwin / The Covenant NewsOnce again, "pro-life" Christians are doing back flips to try and justify their compromise of the life issue by trying to convince everyone (including themselves) that John McCain is truly pro-life. However, these same people know in their hearts that John McCain shares no fidelity to the life issue in any significant or meaningful way. Like many in the Republican Party, McCain's commitment to life is about as deep as a mud puddle.

Joseph Lieberman (I-Conn.) and former New York City Mayor Rudy Giuliani (R) will be given featured speaking slots at next month's Republican National Convention, the Washington Post reports.

Abortion Not Key Issue, GOP Poll Says
WASHINGTON -- Nearly 70 percent of Republican voters don't see abortion as a key issue in selecting a vice presidential nominee, a GOP abortion rights poll indicates. Such a conclusion could benefit the chances of a pro-abortion rights running mate for Sen. John McCain, R-Ariz., the apparent Republican Party presidential nominee, The Hill, a Washington publication, said. McCain is widely believed to be considering Sen. Joseph Lieberman, I-Conn., or former U.S. Homeland Security Secretary Tom Ridge, both pro-abortion rights, as his running mate. The poll by Republican Majority for Choice, a pro-abortion rights advocacy group, urged party members to be open-minded about a possible change in GOP abortion policy and to listen to divergent views, The Hill said.Click Here For The Full Story......

Joe Biden: A Stinkin' Pro-Abort Catholic!
By Michael PaulsonBarack Obama's chosen runningmate, U.S. Sen. Joe Biden, is a Roman Catholic who would become, if elected, the first Catholic vice-president of the U.S. Like many Catholic elected officials in the U.S., he runs afoul of church teachings on abortion rights, but cites church teachings on a variety of social justice concerns. (Editor's note: Biden's selection is likely to rekindle the hypocrisy over whether "Catholic politicians" who support abortion should not receive Communion, rather than why all Catholics, employed by the pro-abort federal government, should not receive Communion.)

"As a pastor, I know you can learn a lot about a man's character by the way he treats his family," he says. It's prominent evangelical leader Brian McLaren, and so begins the new TV ad for Sen. Barack Obama, which ran last weekend during Pastor Rick Warren's presidential forum at Saddleback Church in California. The ad on "standing up for families" doesn't come from the Obama campaign, but from an independent political action committee (PAC) that has recently joined the battle for the Christian vote.

Pro-Life Action League's Libel Case Against Planned Parenthood
GENEVA, IL. -- The state's Citizens Participation Act either protects those with legitimate interests in how government works or it's opening a door to full-scale attacks, including false ones, on public officials involved in the process. Those differing perspectives were made clear Friday afternoon during a lengthy hearing in a libel suit filed by the Pro-Life Action League against Planned Parenthood and its president, Steve Trombley, concerning the 2007 debate over the controversial clinic on Aurora's far East Side. The pro-life organization claims Planned Parenthood libeled and defamed its membership -- in a letter to Aurora aldermen and in an ad which ran in The Beacon News -- by associating them with felons and those who commit violent acts at abortion clinics. Planned Parenthood seeks to have the case dismissed because of the Citizens Participation Act's protections granted to those petitioning government.Click Here For The Full Story......

Planned Parenthood Wants Citizen Protection From Libel Suit
Planned Parenthood sought immunity from a Kane County defamation lawsuit Friday under a law that protects citizens who speak out about government issues. Attorneys for the organization say the Citizen Participation Act shields Planned Parenthood from the accusations of libel and defamation made by Chicago's Pro-Life Action League in the wake of a bitter fight to open an Aurora clinic where abortions are performed. The league sued Planned Parenthood in October after Aurora's mayor and city council received letters painting the abortion opponents as violent, which the Pro-Life Action League flatly denies, and after an ad with similar claims appeared in a local newspaper. The clinic has since opened.

When four men stormed Vernon and Anastacia Norton's Lansdowne home in June 2005, stabbing dead their six-month-old granddaughter, it appeared to be a botched house robbery. But as the months unfolded, beautiful Dina Rodrigues, 25, was found to be the mastermind behind the killing of Baby Jordan, after contracting four men to do the dirty work.

Abortion 'Chop Shop' Charged With Improper Record Disposal
By Gina Damron / Free PressSOUTHFIELD, MI -- A 12-count warrant has been issued against a Lathrup Village abortion clinic for improperly disposing of medical records, according to Southfield's 46th District Court (A suburb of Detroit). The case against WomanCare, located on Southfield Road, stems from a March incident in which patient records were discovered in a Dumpster behind the facility, court and police officials said. The clinic came under scrutiny after an anti-abortion group reportedly found body parts of fetuses, other medical waste and the records in the trash bins. An arraignment date has not yet been set. Dr. A. Alberto Hodari, who owns the clinic and who would have to appear in court, said that he was not aware of the charges. In March, Sgt. Vincent Lynch said that up to 50 patients could be identified in medical records, which were mostly created in February and included personal information and the types of procedures performed.

Proposed HHS Rule Allows Government Funded Health Care Workers to Opt-Out of Abortions
But The Rule Also Excludes Abortifacient Birth Control in "Abortion Definition"
(In other words, the rule does not protect health care workers who refuse to kill babies with abortion causing birth control)
By Maggie Fox, Health and Science Editor / yahoo! Reuters
WASHINGTON -- Health officials released a controversial regulation on Thursday to protect health professionals who do not want to provide abortions or certain other health care services. The regulation could strip federal funding from employers or institutions that fire a doctor, nurse, pharmacist or other health professional who refuses to provide abortion care or information (The proposed rule only applies to institutions receiving government tax money). But it no longer defines some types of contraception as abortion, after family planning groups complained an earlier draft would have defined abortion to include birth control pills and the intrauterine device or IUD. The Planned Parenthood Federation of America said the regulation was deliberately vague. "At least they wrote a definition of abortion," Roger Evans, director of litigation at the group, told reporters.

Brian McLaren Shills for Pro-Abortion Obama
By Ingrid Schlueter / Slice Of LaodiceaIn this political ad, Brian McLaren says you can learn a lot about a man by how he treats his family. As a so-called pastor, McLaren should also know that you can learn a lot about a man by how he treats babies in the womb. Obama, who virulently defends the right to kill babies in the womb, and who twice voted against the Born Alive Infants Protection Act when babies were being allowed to die on dirty laundry carts after failed abortion attempts, has blood on his hands. That doesn’t stop Brian McLaren and KirbyJon Caldwell from telling us that Obama is a man of character. The fruit of Brian McLaren’s postmodern theology is truly evident here. 50 million dead children can be overlooked as meaningless in the interest of promoting change. Everything must change, says McLaren. Everything but the relentless slaughter of America’s most precious and vulnerable citizens. And God sees it.
