Harry Reid on Helping Kids With Cancer: “Why Would We Want To Do That?”
With a government shutdown over the issue of Obamacare and its abortion funding occupying most of the political debate, Democratic Senate leader Harry Reid put his foot in his mouth in a big way today.

The House is set to vote today on H.J. Res. 73, the Research for Lifesaving Cures Act, which ensures funding for the National Institutes of Health during the government shutdown over the Obamacare debate, but Reid said Senate Democrats aren’t interested in the House Republican bill. http://www.lifenews.com/2013/10/02/harry-reid-on-helping-kids-with-cancer-why-would-we-want-to-do-that/
Obama is “Hugely Impressed” With Pope Francis, But the Pope Condemned Abortion
President Barack Obama says he is “hugely impressed” with Pope Francis’s recent public statements — but apparently the president isn’t paying much attention since the Pope has strongly condemned abortion.

Obama appears to be responding to misleading media presentations of the Pope’s comments on the Catholic Church and abortion. The media wrongly reported that Pope Francis wanted to back off the issue of abortion when all he was saying is that the Catholic Church needs to help reconnect women who have had abortions to the Church. http://www.lifenews.com/2013/10/02/obama-is-hugely-impressed-with-pope-francis-but-the-pope-condemned-abortion/
Abortion Activist Chelsea Clinton Calls 2014 “Year of the Baby”
Chelsea Clinton lamented earlier this year that her grandmother did not have access to the Planned Parenthood abortion business. Now, blind to her own hypocrisy, the abortion advocate says she has named 2014, “the year of the baby.”
From the stage at the 2013 Women Deliver conference, Chelsea revealed that her much-admired maternal grandmother was the child of unwed teenage parents who “did not have access to services that are so crucial that Planned Parenthood helps provide.” http://www.lifenews.com/2013/10/02/abortion-activist-chelsea-clinton-calls-2014-year-of-the-baby/
Obamacare Opens Unprecedented Gateway for Illegal Invasion of Privacy
As health exchanges open Tuesday to high traffic and technical glitches, numerous fake Obamacare websites are out there trying to steal personal information.

How to Debunk the Myth of Overpopulation in Three Easy Steps
We are contacted all the time by people asking for how they can refute the arguments of those who believe that the world is overpopulated. So we have decided to create a short primer called “How to Debunk the Myth of Overpopulation in Three Easy Steps.”

Before we start, however, let’s define overpopulation. Overpopulation describes a situation where the number of people exhausts the resources in a closed environment such that it can no longer support that population. http://www.lifenews.com/2013/10/02/how-to-debunk-the-myth-of-overpopulation-in-three-easy-steps/
“Church of Euthanasia” Calls Abortion a Religious “Sacrament”
This week is Women’s Rights Week, which is a good opportunity to become aware of the state of women’s rights around the world. Among all countries, China, with its one-child policy and forced abortion rates, is perhaps the most out of touch with women’s rights.
This story highlights the strides that have yet to be made in modern-day China. At the end of the piece, we’ll tell you how you can get involved in the fight for women’s rights in China.
