visitation rights in pro-abortion Massachusetts
Live Action News
The specter of rape is pro-choicers' heaviest artillery in the mythical "War on Women." Rape is a crime so vile that they can't help but salivate at the thought of new and creative ways to slander their political opponents by tying them to it. Of course, all this crying wolf really does is define misogyny down as women face true victimization elsewhere. Fox News reports that a Massachusetts rapist wants visitation rights to the child he fathered with his fourteen-year-old victim. |
|  USAID launches new long-term contraceptive
implant for poor women
Turtle Bay and Beyond
USAID used the occasion of World Contraception Day to announce a new commitment to provide the long-term contraceptive implant----known as Jadelle, to women in the poorest countries of the world. The WHO-approved contraceptive implant lasts up to five years, is said to be reversible and can be administered by trained healthcare workers. This initiative was a joint effort with "the Clinton Health Access Initiative, the Governments of Norway, the United Kingdom, the US and Sweden, The Children's Investment Fund Foundation, other groups and the German pharmaceutical firm Bayer HealthCare AG, which is the manufacturer of the contraceptive device." The agreement provides that Bayer will reduce the cost of Jadelle by fifty percent and in exchange is guaranteed a six year contract which includes "funding for at least 27 million contraceptive devices." |
|  Organs taken from patients that doctors were
pressured to declare brain dead: Suit
New York Post
The New York Organ Donor Network pressured hospital staffers to declare patients brain dead so their body parts could be harvested - and even hired "coaches" to train staffers how to be more persuasive, a bombshell lawsuit charged yesterday. The federally funded nonprofit used a "quota" system, and leaned heavily on the next of kin to sign consent forms when patients were not registered as organ donors, the suit charged. "They're playing God," said plaintiff Patrick McMahon, 50, an Air Force combat veteran and nurse practitioner who claims he was fired as a transplant coordinator after just four months for protesting the practice. | |
