Obama Admin OKs Morning After Pill for Young Girls, Sexual Predators
The Obama Administration has dropped its legal battle against a judges decision that would allow young girls to purchase the Plan B morning after pill over the counter.
The decision allows anyone to purchase the drug and opponents of the decision say it paves the way for male sexual predators to purchase the drug for girls they victimize, by removing safeguards currently in place. http://www.lifenews.com/2013/ 06/11/obama-admin-oks-morning- after-pill-for-young-girls- sexual-predators/

Bill to Ban Abortions After 20 Weeks Needed to Stop More Kermit
Gosnells
A U.S. House committee will vote tomorrow on a bill that would ban abortions nationwide after 20 weeks of pregnancy and the editors at National Review released an editorial today about why the measure is so important.
They say the bill is necessary to stop future abortion practitioners like Kermit Gosnell, who kill babies in gruesome abortion procedures that are tantamount to infanticide. http://www.lifenews.com/2013/ 06/11/bill-to-ban-abortions- after-20-weeks-needed-to-stop- more-kermit-gosnells/

Girl Scouts USA Denies Joining Planned Parenthood at Abortion Conference
When Girl Scouts USA (GSUSA) gets criticized for their controversial practices, they usually offer vague statements and empty reassurances. Last week was no exception.
When Girl Scouts USA (GSUSA) gets criticized for their controversial practices, they usually offer vague statements and empty reassurances. Last week was no exception.
I suppose my recent
Girl Scout article hit a nerve. Last week, GSUSA released a statement attempting
to respond to the concerns I presented. I thought it was interesting that
they responded to fairly insignificant me, a lone teenage girl. You see,
Missouri Right to Life, a major player on the pro-life stage,
recently issued a very informative and well-documented policy statement
about GSUSA. GSUSA has been curiously quiet about those serious concerns.

The reaction from pro-abortion and pro-life groups to the Obama administrations decision to withdraw opposition to sales of the morning after pill to women and girls of any age is markedly different.
The Planned Parenthood abortion business is elated: Planned Parenthood Federation of America president Cecile Richards released the following statement hailing tonights announcement by the Obama Administration. http://www.lifenews.com/2013/
IRS Agent Who Told Group to Keep Faith Private Opposed Pro-Life
Position
Yesterday, LifeNews broke the news that an IRS agent was caught on tape telling a pro-life group attempting to obtain nonprofit status that it had to keep its faith views to itself.
Alliance Defending Freedom, a pro-life legal group, made the audio available today of IRS officials telling a group that provides support to women in abusive pregnancy situations to keep its faith to itself. In the recorded phone conversation, an IRS agent lectures the president of the organization about forcing its religion and beliefs on others and inaccurately explains that the group must remain neutral on issues such as abortion. http://www.lifenews.com/2013/ 06/11/irs-agent-who-told- group-to-keep-faith-private- opposed-pro-life-position/

Doctor Saves Life of Baby With Deadly Brain Aneurysm Using Superglue
Everyone once in awhile comes a story that seems to be ripped right from the script of a movie nighttime television drama. But real life was more exciting than fiction for one family and their little girl.
As the Washington Times reports,
an innovative doctor was able to save the life of a 20-day-old girl with
a deadly aneurysm thanks to a usage of surgical superglue the manufacturer
probably never expected. http://www.lifenews.com/2013/Everyone once in awhile comes a story that seems to be ripped right from the script of a movie nighttime television drama. But real life was more exciting than fiction for one family and their little girl.
