Planned Parenthood Abortion Biz Sees Number of Clinics Drop to Lowest Point Since RoeA new report released today provides excellent news for the pro-life movement as it shows the number of clinics run by the Planned Parenthood abortion business drop to its lowest figure since Roe v. Wade, the infamous Supreme Court decision that allowed unlimited abortions.
Conducted by American Life League, the latest survey of Planned Parenthood facilities in the United States shows the number of clinics and geographic areas served is the lowest number of clinics for Planned Parenthood since 1973. Ironically, while the Planned Parenthood abortion business is operating few clinics, its level of taxpayer funding has not dropped. http://www.lifenews.com/2014/03/20/planned-parenthood-abortion-biz-sees-number-of-clinics-drop-to-lowest-point-since-roe/
Pro-Life Group Turning Abortion Clinic Where Kermit Gosnell Worked Into Food Pantry A pro-life group in Delaware is taking one of the former abortion facilities where notorious abortion practitioner Kermit Gosnell worked and is turning it into a food pantry and place for housing assistance.
Gosnell operated his “House of Horrors” abortion clinic in Philadelphia, where he killed babies in “live-birth abortions” in part by “snipping” their spinal cards. But Gosnell also worked at two Delaware abortion clinics, including the one in Wilmington called Atlantic Women’s Medical Services. http://www.lifenews.com/2014/03/20/pro-life-group-turning-abortion-clinic-where-kermit-gosnell-worked-into-food-pantry/

County SVU Raids Abortion Clinic of Abortion Doc Who Didn’t Report Child RapeCounty officials in South Bend, Indiana raided an abortion clinic today as part of an investigation into an Indiana-based abortion practitioner who failed to properly report cases of child rape. The Indiana Medical Licensing Board, in January, called on the Indiana Attorney General’s office to investigate allegations that Dr. Ulrich Klopfer, operator of three Indiana abortion clinics.
Klopfer failed to report a statutory rape as required by Indiana law but the state medical board ruled that Klopfer’s license will remain active during the investigation. http://www.lifenews.com/2014/03/20/county-svu-raids-abortion-clinic-of-abortion-doc-who-didnt-report-child-rape/

Planned Parenthood Does One Abortion Every 95 Seconds With the abortion rate dropping, Planned Parenthood’s CEO, Cecile Richards, is no longer hiding that her organization provides abortions. This service of abortion has made Planned Parenthood what it is today: the nation’s largest abortion provider.
Previously, the organization has shied away from using the word abortion. In a membership letter from earlier this year, abortion is not mentioned. Instead, the procedure is left to quietly fall under “… many other essential reproductive health services.” http://www.lifenews.com/2014/03/20/planned-parenthood-does-one-abortion-every-95-seconds/
Why Won’t Michelle Obama Condemn Forced Abortions in China? Even Hillary Clinton DidWhen Michelle Obama arrives in Beijing today with her two daughters, Sasha and Malia, she will be the envy of Chinese women. She has what almost none of them have. Not only does she have two children—most urban Chinese are limited to one—but she has two daughters.
Michelle ObamaSteven Mosher, President of the Population Research, says, “Women and girls have been the primary victims of China’s thirty-five year long ‘war on women.’ Women who are pregnant with illegal children are targeted for abortion. Unborn girls are identified by ultrasounds and selectively eliminated. Millions die each year.” http://www.lifenews.com/2014/03/20/why-wont-michelle-obama-condemn-forced-abortions-in-china-even-hillary-clinton-did/

Parents of Premature Baby Save His Life by Keeping Him in Icebox-Turned-IncubatorThe parents of a premature baby in India were able to save the child’s life by using an inventive ice-box-turned-incubator.

But the little baby was born two months premature, weighing only 3 pounds 3 ounces and prone to infections. http://www.lifenews.com/2014/03/20/parents-of-premature-baby-save-his-life-by-keeping-him-in-icebox-turned-incubator/

Feminists Like Susan B. Anthony Believed Abortion Was “Child Murder” Whoa. Is this true? Well, it depends on which kind of feminists we’re talking about. Founding feminists Susan B. Anthony and Elizabeth Cady Stanton firmly believed that abortion is “infanticide”. http://www.lifenews.com/2014/03/20/feminists-like-susan-b-anthony-believed-abortion-was-child-murder/
New Smart-Phone “Appcessory” Allows Moms to Hear Unborn Child’s Heartbeat Pro-lifers have told people without fail that “abortion stops a beating heart,” but perhaps no technology made that clearer than the fetal heartbeat stethoscope, allowing mothers and dads to hear the “whoosh-whoosh” of their unborn child’s pumping circulatory system. That is, until maybe now. http://www.lifenews.com/2014/03/20/new-smart-phone-appcessory-allows-moms-to-hear-unborn-childs-heartbeat/
