New Video Surfaces: Obama Says Unborn Baby is Potential Life
A new video has surfaced of President Barack Obama, saying at a campaign event in 2004, that he thinks an unborn baby is merely potential life.

The video, posted today by CBN News Chief Political Correspondent David Brody, features footage of Obama talking at a 2004 campaign event in Springfield, Illinois saying that a baby before birth is a potential life. http://www.lifenews.com/2012/10/03/new-video-surfaces-obama-says-unborn-baby-is-potential-life/

Abortion Survivor to Blast Obama Record in TV Ad During Debate
A woman who survived a botched abortion will be featured in a television commercial criticizing President Barack Obama s abortion record that will air during tonight s debate.

The Women Speak Out PAC, a project of the pro-life Susan B. Anthony List, announced that its television ad highlighting Barack Obama s extreme abortion record will air during tonight s presidential debate.

Michelle Obama Promotes Abortion at Pre-Debate Fundraiser
During a pre-debate rally yesterday to fundraise for the Obama campaign, First Lady Michelle Obama promoted abortion, using the typical women s health euphemisms that have became the main staple of the pro-abortion lexicon.

Appearing to support the controversial HHS mandate that forces religious groups to pay for abortion-causing drugs and birth control against their faith, Michelle Obama called birth control and contraception basic preventative care. http://www.lifenews.com/2012/10/03/michelle-obama-promotes-abortion-at-pre-debate-fundraiser/

Planned Parenthood President to Personally Campaign for Obama
The president of the nation s biggest abortion business will personally campaign for President Barack Obama in the battleground state of Iowa this week.

The Obama campaign announced Cecile Richards will head to the Midwest state to promote President Obama s re-election campaign. Richards plans to make stops in Des Moines, Ames, Grinnell, Iowa City and Cedar Rapids as she looks to boost turnout of pro-abortion voters. http://www.lifenews.com/2012/10/03/planned-parenthood-president-to-personally-campaign-for-obama/

Reason to Defeat Obama: He Makes You Pay For Abortions
In previous articles in this series, we ve described Barack Obama s opposition to bans on partial-birth abortion and sex-selection abortion, and his opposition to a law that would ensure that care be provided for children who are born alive during abortions.

Laws like these that are already on the books and helping to save lives are at risk if Barack Obama wins a second term. Here s why: http://www.lifenews.com/2012/10/03/reason-to-defeat-obama-he-makes-you-pay-for-abortions/

Liberal Nat Hentoff: I m Not Voting for the Abortion President
Liberal columnist Nat Hentoff has made it clear in a new column that he has no intention of supporting President Barack Obama s re-election because of the massive pro-abortion record Obama has compiled.

Those reasons also include the fact that Obama failed to support legislation, while he served in the Illinois state legislature, that would protect babies who survive failed abortions. http://www.lifenews.com/2012/10/03/liberal-nat-hentoff-im-not-voting-for-the-abortion-president/

Catholics for Obama Calls Hit Romney: How Can you Support a Mormon
Just a week ago, I reported a call from an Obama supporter received by a Catholic in Pennsylvania. The caller, identifying herself as Catholic, insisted Obama was not pro-abortion and Planned Parenthood did not encourage abortions.

Joy Allen, co-chair of the pro-life committee of her parish, Saints John and Paul in Franklin Park, PA, received another call yesterday. The first Obama caller had asked for her daughter; the second asked for her son both are registered Republicans. The call came from 215-796-4259 at 2:00 p.m. on Sunday. http://www.lifenews.com/2012/10/03/catholics-for-obama-calls-hit-romney-how-can-you-support-a-mormon/

Infertility and Abortion: When Playing God Destroys Lives
A lot of people, conservatives in particular, tend to idealize the past. We like to wax lyrical about simpler times, the good old days.

UK Tries to Prevent Backdoor Euthanasia Via Palliative Sedation
I have written before about the UK s National Health Service protocol known as the Liverpool Care Pathway. After many families complained that their loved ones were allowed to die in agony by NHS doctors, the Pathway was developed to ensure that patients who needed to be sedated received the necessary relief. http://www.lifenews.com/2012/10/03/uk-tries-to-prevent-backdoor-euthanasia-via-palliative-sedation/
