Romney to Hit Back Against False War on Women in Speech
The campaign of presidential candidate Mitt Romney released excerpts of his nomination acceptance speech tonight and, in it, Romney hits back at the false War on Women attack launched by Democrats and abortion activists.
My mom and dad were true partners, a life lesson that shaped me by everyday example. When my mom ran for the Senate, my dad was there for her every step of the way. I can still hear her saying in her beautiful voice, Why should women have any less say than men, about the great decisions facing our nation? http://www.lifenews.com/2012/08/30/romney-to-hit-back-against-false-war-on-women-in-speech/
Vice-Presidential Candidate Paul Ryan Stresses Pro-Life Themes
Last night, during his speech to the Republican convention, vice-presidential candidate Paul Ryan sounded pro-life themes as he talked about the respect and dignity of human life.

Each one of us was made for a reason, bearing the image and likeness of the Lord of Life, Ryan said. http://www.lifenews.com/2012/08/30/vice-presidential-candidate-paul-ryan-stresses-pro-life-themes/
Mike Huckabee Hits Home Run at GOP Tagging Obama on Abortion
In a very-well-accepted speech to the Republican convention, former Republican presidential candidate tagged pro-abortion President Barack Obama on issues ranging from is support for infanticide to his imposition of the HHS mandate violating the pro-life views of Catholics.
Huckabee said Obama believes that human life is disposable and expendable at any time in the womb or even beyond the womb, and tells people of faith that they must bow their knees to the god of government and violate their faith and conscience in order to comply with what he calls health care. http://www.lifenews.com/2012/08/29/mike-huckabee-hits-home-run-gop-tagging-obama-on-abortion/
Sandra Fluke, Pro-Abortion Democratic Chair Crash GOP Convention
