Late-Term Abortions Become Fashionable? Vogue Does Huge Profile
of Wendy Davis
Her only claim to fame is standing in the way of Texas efforts to ban late-term abortions of babies at the point of viability, but Wendy Davis infamy is enough for fashion magazine Vogue to do a full spread on the Texas lawmaker.
The Vogue story is replete with effusive praise for the abortion activist who has become the face of the pro-abortion movement nationally. http://www.lifenews.com/2013/ 08/15/late-term-abortions- become-fashionable-vogue-does- huge-profile-of-wendy-davis/

Planned
Parenthood: $4 Billion in Tax Funding as 20% of Its Affiliates Committed
Fraud
A Congressional agency will investigate the Planned Parenthood abortion business and look into its finances. A top pro-life attorney says it is much needed because Planned Parenthood has received billions in taxpayer funding at the same time its affiliates have engaged in fraud.

The Government Accountability
Offices (GAO), a Congressional agency, has indicated it will conduct
an investigation of the Planned Parenthood abortion, business, which was

A new Pew research poll finds Americans say abortion is morally wrong by a 3-1 margin. However, Americas are still divided on the issue of embryonic stem cell research even though it destroys human life and still has not helped any patients.
Pew surveyed 4,006 adults nationwide from March 21 to April 8, 2013 and asked them about abortion, stem cell research and in-vitro fertilization. http://www.lifenews.com/2013/
Planned Parenthood Abortion Clinic in Houston Rushes Woman to Hospital
For the second time in less than a year, the Planned Parenthood abortion clinic in Houston, Texas, has called an ambulance to transport a patient to a local hospital.
The Houston Coalition for Life posted two photos on its Facebook page showing an ambulance, fire truck, and a third emergency vehicle outside the large multi-story Planned Parenthood clinic on August 14, 2013, at approximately 1:00 p.m. A woman suffering an unknown condition was transported to a local hospital emergency room. http://www.lifenews.com/2013/ 08/15/planned-parenthood- abortion-clinic-in-houston- rushes-woman-to-hospital/

Obamacare Remains Massively Unpopular Despite Planned Parenthood
Push
It is no secret that ObamaCare has never been popular. But what weve seen lately is a peeling away of even some of those who initially supported the Affordable Care Act.
With that diminishing support
in mind abortion advocates are working overtime to shore up support for
the unpopular Obama healthcare law. Hoping to allay doubts about the laws
implementation and its effects, abortion advocates took to Twitter to bolster
the law using the hashtag #ObamacareWorks. http://www.lifenews.com/2013/It is no secret that ObamaCare has never been popular. But what weve seen lately is a peeling away of even some of those who initially supported the Affordable Care Act.
Doctors Still Pressure Families to Abort Disabled Babies, But Some
Say No
Every baby is a miracle. Ive heard that saying many, many times, but I understand it a lot better now that Im working in the pro-life movement.
Every baby is a miracle. Ive heard that saying many, many times, but I understand it a lot better now that Im working in the pro-life movement.
Especially when I
read stories about babies like Hannah.
While Hannah was still
in the womb, doctors diagnosed her with Trisomy 18, a chromosomal abnormality
that causes most babies to die at birth. http://www.lifenews.com/2013/ 08/15/doctors-still-pressure- families-to-abort-disabled- babies-but-some-say-no/

and Agnostics: Do They Have a Place in the Pro-Life Movement?
Lately Ive been noticing a new pro-life trend. Quite active on Facebook are groups and individuals who condemn any attempt to convert an abortion advocate without taking a religious approach. http://www.lifenews.com/2013/ 08/15/atheists-and-agnostics- do-they-have-a-place-in-the- pro-life-movement/
