Attorney for Abortionist Who Twists Necks Off Babies: He’s
Innocent
About
20 activists turned out at a press conference yesterday held by several
national pro-life groups in front of one of Douglas Karpen’s Houston
abortion clinics where former workers say Gosnell-like atrocities occurred,
including the intentional killing of babies born alive during abortions.
Dr. Day Gardner, President of the National Black Pro-Life Union in Washington, D.C. addressed the crowd saying, “Kermit Gosnell is not an anomaly. Planned Parenthood and others who support abortion tried to make it seem like it was. … Believe me when I say that abortionists across America are continuing where Gosnell left off.” http://www.lifenews.com/2013/

Planned Parenthood Pushing Its Customers Into Obamacare for Tax-Funding
The
Planned Parenthood abortion business is pushing its customers into Obamacare
in a scheme to get more taxpayer funding from the federal government.
Politico has the details on what’s happening: The group’s more than 750 health centers across the country will be promoting the health law and helping women find out about new coverage options for themselves and their families before — and after — enrollment begins Oct. 1. http://www.lifenews.com/2013/

New York Senate Defeats Andrew Cuomo’s Radical Abortion Bill
The failure
of a last-ditch hostile amendment to try to effect passage of the Abortion
Expansion Act is a remarkable victory for unborn children, as well as vulnerable
women and girls who so often face unrelenting societal and family pressure
to abort.

That’s the
feeling of pro-life groups and the state’s Catholic bishops following
the defeat of the radical abortion bill pro-abortion New York Gov. Andrew
Cuomo was promoting in the state legislature. http://www.lifenews.com/2013/
No two pro-lifers will read personal accounts written by women who’ve had
abortions and come away with exactly the same conclusions.Of course, we would all lament the loss of these children and fervently wish the moms had chosen life over death. A terrible—and irrevocable—decision has been made with ramifications most women (and the men who were involved) could never have anticipated. http://www.lifenews.com/2013/
Writer: No Regret for Aborting My Twin Baby Boy at 23 Weeks
A
writer in the New York Times today shared her shocking story of have an
abortion of her twin unborn baby boy at 23 weeks.
Judy Nicastro, a former member of the Seattle city council, begins her piece this way: I believe that parenthood starts before conception, at the moment you decide you want a child, and are ready and able to create a safe and loving home for her or him. I support abortion rights, but I reject the false distinction between the terms “pro-choice” and “pro-life.” http://www.lifenews.com/2013/

Not Yet Born, But Unborn Baby Fought for Late-Term Abortion Ban
in Congress
Years
from now, one little boy will be told how he helped fight abortion even
though he was yet to be born.
When Minnesota Representative,
Michele Bachmann, took to the House floor yesterday in support of the Pain-Capable
Unborn Child Protection Act (HR. 1797), she used this picture:Years

Mother of Disabled Baby Attacked for Not Aborting Him Celebrates
Son’s Life
Children
and adults with disabilities never cease to amaze the world with their impressive
resilience and uncrushable spirits. But there are always a few bitter individuals
lying in wait, ready to trample the happiness that these people with special
needs experience and bring out in others.

Just last week, pro-life
Congresswoman Jaime Herrera and her unborn child with Potter’s Syndrome
were the target of disgusting comments from individuals who do not believe
that her baby deserves life or love. Similarly, Bill Maher recently called
Trig Palin “retarded” (a comment which gleaned approval from members
of The View cast). http://www.lifenews.com/2013/
