Abortion Clinics Arrange Illegal Sex-Selection Abortions
A third video in a series devoted to exposing how the abortion industry is willing to arrange sex-selection abortions for women who seek them shows two National Abortion Federation-affiliated clinics in Arizona agreeing to break state law and perform an illegal sex-selective abortion.

Live Action has released the third video in the series after two other videos exposed how staff at Planned Parenthood abortion centers agreed to facilitate sex-selection abortions.

The new footage shows two NAF members, Camelback Family Planning in Phoenix and the Tucson Women s Center in Tucson, promising to ignore the law and perform a sex-selective abortion and coaching a woman to lie on official paperwork to conceal the illegal abortion. http://www.lifenews.com/2012/06/06/abortion-clinics-arrange-illegal-sex-selection-abortions/

Pro-Life Victory: Scott Walker Defeats Pro-Abortion Recall
Wisconsin Governor Scott Walker survived a pro-abortion attempt to recall him and install him with pro-abortion Tom Barrett, the mayor of Milwaukee, as the new governor for the Badger State.

With 59 percent of the precincts reporting, Walker captured 57 percent of the vote and Barrett 42 percent.

This is such a tremendous victory for Wisconsin taxpayers, said Ciara Matthews, Walker campaign communications director. Today, Wisconsin voters have told the nation they stand with Governor Walker because he stands with them. http://www.lifenews.com/2012/06/05/pro-life-victory-scott-walker-defeat-pro-abortion-recall/

You Can t be Pro-Life and Not Vote for Mitt Romney
You can t be pro-life and not vote for Mitt Romney. This is a simple declarative statement with no ifs or buts. It is what it is.

I understood and expected the loud and sometimes naïve rhetoric among conservatives during the GOP primary season, but the time for rancor, vitriol and empty rhetoric is over. There is only one man who can beat Barrack Obama in November and that is Governor Mitt Romney. If you dare think of yourself as a champion of the unborn, it isn t only important that you bury whatever hatchet you may have had and support the presumptive GOP candidate; it is requirement for any pro-life American. http://www.lifenews.com/2012/06/05/you-cant-be-pro-life-and-not-vote-for-mitt-romney/

Doctor Told Me Four Times to Abort One of My Triplets
Abort, abort, rang through my head the entire taxi ride home from the doctor s office. I was twenty weeks pregnant. How could I abort my perfectly healthy babies?

That was the fourth time during my triplet pregnancy that a doctor suggested I abort one or more babies. Every time it was said as if the doctor was talking about the weather. Didn t he understand what these babies meant to me? What babies mean to a lot of people? I saw their heartbeats. They were alive. http://www.lifenews.com/2012/06/05/doctor-told-me-four-times-to-abort-one-of-my-triplets/

Obamacare Premium Could Give Abortion Industry $1 Billion Yearly
An abortion premium in the Obamacare health care law received considerable attention during and after the debate on the controversial legislation.

With the presidential election in full swing, the pro-life Alliance Defense Fund legal group has a new video out explaining the premium and how it could funnel as much as $1 billion to the abortion industry.

The Obama Administration s radical healthcare mandate forces Americans to pay for health insurance coverage that funds the taking of innocent human life and other activities even if doing so violates their sincerely held religious beliefs, ADF explains. Through ObamaCare, the government is attempting to coerce Americans to fund the abortion industry, and will financially punish American citizens who refuse to comply with its demands. http://www.lifenews.com/2012/06/05/obamacare-premium-could-give-abortion-industry-1-billion/

Obama s Gendercide Hypocrisy: His Real War on Women
President Obama s positions on social issues have never been known as consistent or logical. This can be said about many questions including the human rights of innocent and less fortunate human beings.

One current example is the contrast between how the White House handled its opposition to a ban on sex selection abortions versus its position on a toxic poison that was added to drinking water being consumed by Afghan female students in Takhar Province, Afghanistan.

Late last week the United States House of Representatives, under a special rule, voted on the Prenatal Nondiscrimination Act a proposal that would have allegedly banned efforts to abort a baby based on that child s gender. President Obama was among those who opposed the proposed law. Apparently Obama does not view sex selection abortion as discriminatory. http://www.lifenews.com/2012/06/05/obamas-gendercide-hypocrisy-his-real-war-on-women/

Planned Parenthood Targets Teens at School-Based Clinic in L.A.
The Los Angeles Times has a new profile of a school-based health clinic the Planned Parenthood abortion business runs in partnership with the Los Angeles public school district. These kinds of clinics have long been a concern for pro-life advocates, worried they have taxpayer-funded public schools obtaining more customers for the abortion business and preying on teenagers potentially without parental knowledge or permission.

As the Times reports: Throughout the school year, students visit the on-campus clinic to get birth control, pregnancy tests, counseling and screening for sexually transmitted diseases. The services, which are free and confidential, are offered through a unique collaboration between Planned Parenthood and the Los Angeles Unified School District designed to reduce the number of unplanned pregnancies among teenagers at the Boyle Heights high school. http://www.lifenews.com/2012/06/05/planned-parenthood-runs-public-school-based-clinic-in-los-angeles/

Report: RU 486 Kills 1.2M Children, Injures Thousands of Women
The Family Research Council has released an extensive research report on the RU 486 (mifepristone) abortion drug and the number are staggering. http://www.lifenews.com/2012/06/05/report-ru-486-kills-1-2m-children-injures-thousands-of-women/

Pro-Life Women Are Changing the Face of the Abortion Debate
This last weekend the Troy, OH Strawberry festival had to move to downtown Troy because of work on one the two bridges over the river that divides the city.

Pro-Abortion Writer Claims Bible is Not Pro-Life
RH Reality Check is the antithesis of LifeNews it is a place for pro-abortion bloggers to spout off their misinformation and pro-abortion mantras. But one blogger has gone far enough to catch the attention of pro-lifers for how far off the mark her post is on the subject. http://www.lifenews.com/2012/06/05/pro-abortion-writer-claims-bible-is-not-pro-life/

Florida Abortion Practitioner Dies, Did Abortions for 34 Years
Florida abortionist Walker L. Whaley died on May 31, 2012, at the age of 64, according to a two-sentence obituary printed in the Florida Times-Union. Local pro-life activist Michele Herzog told Operation Rescue that he died of a heart attack. http://www.lifenews.com/2012/06/06/florida-abortion-practitioner-dies-did-abortions-for-34-years/

Networks Still Silent on Planned Parenthood Sex-Selection Expose
The three broadcast networks continue to act as guardian angels to Planned Parenthood, shielding the abortion provider from any hint of controversy. Live Action videos showing Planned Parenthood s apparent willingness to cooperate in sex selection abortion have been completely buried by ABC, CBS, and NBC for an entire week (morning shows of May 30-June 5, evening shows of May 29-June 4). http://www.lifenews.com/2012/06/05/networks-still-silent-on-planned-parenthood-sex-selection-expose/
