Pro-Life
Group Takes Battle to Overturn HHS Mandate to the Supreme Court
A
pro-life legal group today filed a petition asking the Supreme Court to
review a lower court’s decision in a case seeking to overturn the
pro-abortion HHS mandate that is a part of the Obamacare law.
Liberty Counsel filed a petition with the U.S. Supreme Court to review the Fourth Circuit Court of Appeals’ decision in its case for Liberty University against the abortion mandate. Liberty Counsel’s challenge to ObamaCare argues the contraception-abortifacient mandate forcing employers to provide free abortion-inducing drugs or devices violates the Federal Religious Freedom Restoration Act and the First Amendment Free Exercise of Religion Clause. http://www.lifenews.com/2013/

Doctors Tell Mom to Abort “Brain Dead” Baby, Mom Sues
After Delivering Healthy Child
A mother in England is filing suit
against a hospital where doctors told her she should have an abortion of her
supposedly “brain dead” unborn baby. Sarah Hagan is now suing City
Hospitals Sunderland after giving birth to a healthy child.
Hagan says that, after a 24-week ultrasound scan of her unborn baby, doctors told her that her son Aaron was “brain dead,” had just one eye and no chance of survival. http://www.lifenews.com/2013/

NAACP
Fights for Abortion in North Carolina, Defends Planned Parenthood
It’s
easier to ignore an epidemic if you pretend it doesn’t exist. Human
history is full of examples of people looking away as atrocities were carried
out all around them. One of the most invisible injustices today is abortion.
We don’t see the carnage on violence-soaked TV.

We don’t see
the mutilated bodies on local newscasts that regularly swoop in like vultures
at any sign of blood. We don’t see the obvious aftermath that a culture
of abortion and abandonment has inflicted on our most vulnerable communities.

Fifteen provinces in China collected a total of $2 billion (12.8 billion Chinese
yuan) in fines last year for violations of the One-Child Policy, according to
a study by 21st Century Business Herald, as reported by state-controlled outlet
China Daily. China contains a total of 23 provinces, 4 municipality-provinces and 5 autonomous regions, so the total number of fines collected by the Ministry of Health and Family Planning is likely to have collected far more than the reported $2 billion. http://www.lifenews.com/2013/
Abandoned Newborn Baby Found Alive in a Trash Bag, Umbilical Cord
Still Attached
Teenagers
playing outside an apartment complex made a horrifying discovery: they found
a newborn child still alive abandoned in a trash can. The infant is lucky
to be alive and is now receiving medical care as authorities search for
answers.
A local news report has more information: Police were dispatched to a 5-story apartment building on Kensington Avenue around 3 p.m. to a report of an abandoned baby boy who was found in a garbage container, Hudson County Assistant Prosecutor Gene Rubino said. http://www.lifenews.com/2013/

336 Million Abortions Have Taken Place in China Under the One-Child
Policy
With
its announcement of possible reforms, China has implicitly admitted its
forty year-old one child per-family policy has been a failure.
The rules led to draconian abuses.
There were an estimated 336 million abortions, including forced abortions
and sterilizations at the hands of a powerful and intrusive family planning
establishment controlling the most intimate aspects of Chinese life. http://www.lifenews.com/2013/With

ObamaCare Takes Planned Parenthood Abortion Biz to a Whole New
Level
President
Obama’s health care law, ObamaCare, takes the federal government’s
relationship with Planned Parenthood to a whole new level. On August 15, the
U.S. Department of Health and Human Services (HHS) announced that Planned
Parenthood affiliates in Iowa, Montana, and New Hampshire will be funded to
serve as ObamaCare “Navigators.” Their combined funding will total
over $655,000.
By choosing these Planned Parenthood
affiliates to be Navigators in the federally facilitated Exchanges, these
Planned Parenthood affiliates will now have the seal of approval of the federal
government as an entity that consumers can contact for help in applying for
coverage. http://www.lifenews.com/2013/President

The
Latest Pop Culture Defense of Abortion: Everybody’s Doing It
By now, you’ve all heard about Udonis Haslem and Faith Rein’s wedding announcement in the New York Times, which included the fact that they’d had an abortion many years ago. http://www.lifenews.com/2013/

Liberal Writer Proves Planned Parenthood Doesn’t Need Taxpayer Funding
She probably doesn’t realize it, but Michelle Goldberg just proved conservatives’ point about Planned Parenthood: Donors from the private sector are more than capable to finance the abortion-providing non-profit group. http://www.lifenews.com/2013/

“The Bet:” A Book That Eviscerates the “Population Bomb” Overpopulation Myth
I mentioned in passing on Tuesday that I had read a book review in the Wall Street Journal’s weekend edition that was exquisitely written—and that although the book’s subject matter begins in the 1960s, its message is (unfortunately) very relevant today. http://www.lifenews.com/2013/
