Obama
Approval Sinks to Record-Low 37% as Obamacare Scandal Continues
President Barack Obama’s
approval rating has crashed to the lowest level of his presidency as the
scandal over Obamacare and millions of Americans losing their health care
insurance plans continues. A record 57 percent of Americans disapprove
of the job he’s doing.
According to a CBS News poll released Wednesday, 37 percent say they approve of how Obama is doing his job and his approval dropped nine points, from 46 percent in October. Meanwhile, just 49 percent believe Obama is honest and trustworthy — down from 60 percent during his re-election campaign. http://www.lifenews.com/2013/
Obama Awards Presidential Medal of Freedom to Abortion Activist Gloria Steinem
Longtime pro-abortion
activist Gloria Steinem today received the highest honor the Untied States
can bestow upon a citizen who is not a member of the U.S. military. Obama
today awarded sixteen recipients of the Presidential Medal of Freedom
and those recipients included abortion activist Gloria Steinem.
The Presidential Medal of Freedom is “presented to individuals who have made especially meritorious contributions to the security or national interests of the United States, to world peace, or to cultural or other significant public or private endeavors,” and Obama apparently believes dedicating one’s life to promoting abortion is a part of that list. http://www.lifenews.com/2013/

Man Without a Face: Pope Francis Takes Time to Bless Severely Disfigured
Man
Two weeks
after Pope Francis blessed a disabled man who suffered from growths all
over his head and body, the leader of the Catholic Church took the time
to bless a severely disfigured man without a face.
Two weeks
after Pope Francis blessed a disabled man who suffered from growths all
over his head and body, the leader of the Catholic Church took the time
to bless a severely disfigured man without a face.
The disabled man
who made international headlines after Pope Francis blessed him was greatly
appreciative of the Pope taking his time to bless him. Now, Pope Francis
paused during his weekly audience to greet another disfigured person, showing
his sensitivity to the dignity and worth of human life no matter what physical
conditions they face. http://www.lifenews.com/2013/
It’s already
difficult enough to figure out which health care plan under Obamacare does or
does not pay for abortions with your tax dollars or premiums. Now, new information
has surfaced showing some Obamacare plans in the nation’s capital pay for
abortions while denying coverage for legitimate health needs like hearing aids
or eye care.As the National Review reports: At least one individual plan available on the D.C. health insurance exchange specifically covers elective abortion but not hearing aids, routine foot-care, and routine eye-care. http://www.lifenews.com/2013/
 Finally...
moral, pro-life
fiction that opens hearts and minds! “This is what I was hoping
would begin to spring from the Indie World. No way would NYC Corporate
Publishing ever allow something with this worldview through.” -

Writer: Moms Who Birth Disabled Babies are “Insentient Incubators”
Who “Give Birth to a Corpse”
Know anyone who has given birth to a baby with severe disabilities? Parents
of such children already face tremendous pressure from doctors, friends
and family, and society to have an abortion when confronted with a possible
diagnosis of an unborn children with terrible medical problems.
Many parents, and courageous mothers, give birth to such children. Sometimes the diagnosis turns out to be completely mistaken and beautiful healthy children are born who otherwise would have been victimized by abortion. On other occasions, mothers give birth to babies who may not survive long — but who unconditionally love them nonetheless. http://www.lifenews.com/2013/

Catholic College Renews Lawsuit: Don’t Make Us Comply With
the HHS Mandate
The
Becket Fund for Religious Liberty today filed a lawsuit on behalf of Belmont
Abbey College against the Obama administration, citing the HHS mandate requiring
the college to provide insurance coverage including contraception, sterilization,
and abortion-inducing drugs.

the first institution to sue the Obama administration over the HHS mandate
in 2011. The judge dismissed the original case citing the administration’s

and thereby deeming the college’s lawsuit premature. http://www.lifenews.com/2013/The
