Worker at Gosnell Clinic: Baby’s Chest Moved After Neck Snipped
A young woman who worked at Kermit Gosnell’s abortion clinic as a teenager testified today in court that she saw a baby’s chest move even after the gruesome snipping procedure he used to end their lives.
That a 15-year-old girl was employed at a Philadelphia, Pennsylvania abortion clinic is problematic enough, Ashley Baldwin testified Thursday in the murder trial of abortion practitioner Kermit Gosnell that even his horrific “snipping” procedure for killing babies in abortions/infanticides didn’t necessarily end their lives. http://www.lifenews.com/2013/

Infant Beheadings and Severed Babies’ Feet, But Media Ignores Gosnell
Criticism of the mainstream media is reaching such a level that even some Democrats are upset it has failed to provide adequate coverage of the Kermit Gosnell controversy. Today, pro-life Democrat Kirsten Powers has a well-received article in USA Today bemoaning the lack of media coverage.
Her column follows research from the media watchdog group Newsbusters, which found the three major network newscasts have covered the Gosnell trial a total of zero minutes, compared to 41 minutes worth of coverage for the controversy at Rutgers university over how coaches were treating players. http://www.lifenews.com/2013/

Gosnell Attorney: Babies’ Deaths Justify Snipping Their Necks
Yesterday, the primary defense theory in the Kermit Gosnell murder case was explored by defense attorney Jack McMahon, who posits that all the babies aborted at Gosnell’s clinic were already dead when their spinal cords were “snipped” to ensure “fetal demise.”
Yesterday, the primary defense theory in the Kermit Gosnell murder case was explored by defense attorney Jack McMahon, who posits that all the babies aborted at Gosnell’s clinic were already dead when their spinal cords were “snipped” to ensure “fetal demise.”
McMahon pressed former Gosnell employee Lynda Williams concerning her duties at Gosnell’s ‘House of Horrors” abortion clinic that included cleaning up and disposing of babies born after late-term abortions, many of which were beyond the legal gestational limit of 24 weeks. http://www.lifenews.com/2013/
Congressman: Gosnell an Abortion Predator Who Must be Exposed
A Planned Parenthood abortion business in Delaware has been closed pending an investigation over multiple botched abortions at the clinic.
As LifeNews has reported, the Delaware Planned Parenthood clinic has experienced five botched abortion emergencies in less than five weeks. Since then, one abortionist and two employees have left Planned Parenthood in Wilmington, Delaware, as a result of the scandal. http://www.lifenews.com/2013/A Planned Parenthood abortion business in Delaware has been closed pending an investigation over multiple botched abortions at the clinic.
Poll: Majority Say Abortion Morally Wrong Most of the Time
A new poll of voters shows a majority of Americans believe abortion is morally wrong most of the time.
The survey from Rasmussen Reports included 1,000 Likely Voters and was conducted April 9-10. It showed 51% of all voters consider abortion to be morally wrong most of the time. That’s up from an all-time low of 44% in January but more consistent with findings in surveys since March 2006. Just thirty-four percent (34%) view abortion as morally acceptable in most instances. Fifteen percent (15%) are not sure. http://www.lifenews.com/2013/
NBC Won’t Cover Gosnell Trial, Tweets News From Another Source
NBC News is one of three networks that refuses to cover the trial of gruesome abortion practitioner Kermit Gosnell.
The media blackout is apparently so extensive that Luke Russert of NBC News today had to tweet a local news story on the trial because NBC has not done its own national reporting.

Death Panels for Babies in Obamacare? Kids With RSV Should Beware
OSarah Palin was attacked mercilessly for her claims that the Obamacare legislation would lead to death panels — where bureaucrats would make treatment decisions for patients or ration their expensive medical care.
OSarah Palin was attacked mercilessly for her claims that the Obamacare legislation would lead to death panels — where bureaucrats would make treatment decisions for patients or ration their expensive medical care.
Since her warning salvo was fired, numerous examples have come up involving Obamacare rationing medical care or putting in cost containments that would lead to rationed care or prohibit patients from spending more of their own money on lifesaving medical treatment or wanted care. http://www.lifenews.com/2013/
Planned Parenthood Pro-Infanticide Lobbyist Lied to Catholic GroupThe controversial Planned Parenthood lobbyist who put the Florida chapter of the nation’s largest abortion business on record supporting infanticide was once a member of the board of directors for a local Catholic Charities branch. http://www.lifenews.com/2013/
Congressman Upset President Obama Ignoring Gosnell Abortion TrialThe mainstream media has become a target of frustration for those wishing it would provide more coverage of the dramatic trial of abortion practitioner Kermit Gosnell. But one congressman is upset President Barack Obama is apparently not paying much attention to it — since the president hasn’t commented on the gruesome live-birth abortion deaths. http://www.lifenews.com/2013/
George Soros Bankrolling Efforts to Legalize Assisted SuicideLiberal billionaire George Soros has apparently found a new cause to put his money behind, having already supported President Barack Obama, liberal candidates and abortion. His new venture appears to be assisted suicide. http://www.lifenews.com/2013/
Sixth Abortion Clinic Closes in Michigan in Recent MonthsWord came yesterday morning that the American Family Planning abortion clinic in Dearborn, Michigan, is shutting its doors as of this Friday. http://www.lifenews.com/2013/
Five Reasons Why the Abortion Industry is Pushing RU 486 HarderWhen RU-486, the abortion pill, was approved for sale in America in September of 2000, this two-drug chemical abortion technique didn’t simply appear out of the blue. It was the result of the years of planning, research, and market analysis by the abortion industry, the culmination of a long term strategy put in place decades earlier. http://www.lifenews.com/2013/
Ethicists Plugged After-Birth Abortions, Now Back “In Vitro Eugenics”Two Australian ethicists created a firestorm of controversy last year when they argued for after-birth abortions. http://www.lifenews.com/2013/
