Planned
Parenthood Tweets Article Supporting Using Women for Sex
The Planned Parenthood abortion business supports the so-called BroChoice campaign and its notion that supporting abortion is a good thing for men to do because it allows them to get out of the responsibility of becoming a parent by pressuring their partner to have an abortion.
The campaign essentially says its alright to use women for sex because they can always get an abortion if they get knocked up. http://www.lifenews.com/2013/ 08/13/planned-parenthood- tweets-article-supporting- using-women-for-sex/

Giannas Story: Abortion Survivor Was Told She Would Never
Be Anything
To those who follow abortion issues closely, the name Gianna Jessen is familiar. Over the years she has been a tremendous speaker about the value of life.
As a survivor of abortion, Gianna knows what she is talking about and her personal story is one that has inspired countless people and opened the eyes of many to how abortion involves the destruction of human life and isnt something that just happens to a bunch of cells. http://www.lifenews.com/2013/ 08/13/giannas-story-abortion- survivor-was-told-she-would- never-be-anything/

Obamacare
Death Panels Come to Oregon: Committee May Deny Cancer Treatment
Even though it was 85 degrees outside today, a snowball was made. It is a small snowball, but it is not going to melt. In fact it is going to grow and before long, it will be so big that no one will be able to move it.

I attended a little-noticed
meeting this afternoon of the Health Evidence Review Commission,
a committee which is part of the Oregon Health Authority and is bringing
Oregons health plan in line with Obamacare. It is a committee that
no one knows or cares about, except it is one that will soon rule, and perhaps
ruin, your life. http://www.lifenews.com/2013/ 08/13/obamacare-death-panels- come-to-oregon-committee-may- deny-cancer-treatment/
The HHS mandate is losing again this time against a Christian-owner rifle scope company that doesnt want to be forced to pay for birth control or drugs that may cause abortions for its employees.
The Obama administration has lost so many HHS mandate cases in court that it didnt even put up a challenge in response to the companys lawsuit, according to news reports . http://www.lifenews.com/2013/
Study Shows People in Vegetative State Were Incorrectly
Diagnosed
There is more encouraging news coming out of Canada regarding the very unscientific persistent vegetative state (PVS) diagnosis. Once again there has been a study regarding three people who were incorrectly thought to be in a PVS.
Why is this so important? One reason is that the PVS diagnosis can be used as a motive to kill a person with a brain injury, as it was in my sister, Terri Schiavos case. This is not the first time this type of testing has taken place with similar types of results. http://www.lifenews.com/2013/ 08/13/study-shows-people-in- vegetative-state-were- incorrectly-diagnosed/

Back Alley Arguments for Legalizing Abortion Disrespect
Womens Intelligence
Weve all heard the pro-choice argument that if abortion is made illegal again, women will be forced to go to dangerous back-alley abortionists, and women will die as a result.
Weve all heard the pro-choice argument that if abortion is made illegal again, women will be forced to go to dangerous back-alley abortionists, and women will die as a result.
There are many pro-life
responses to this. You can explain that maternal deaths from abortion actually
decreased before Roe v. Wade, due to advances in emergency medicine and antibiotics.
You can point out that legal providers are frequently unsafe anyway. You can
bring up all the international research showing that it is possible for a
country to have pro-life policies and good maternal health outcomes. http://www.lifenews.com/2013/ 08/13/back-alley-arguments- for-legalizing-abortion- disrespect-womens- intelligence/
