70 Doctors Join Pro-Lifers to Stop New Planned Parenthood Abortion Biz Near Disney World
On May 3, a group of 70 physicians took out a full page ad on page 2 of the Osceola News Gazette to encourage Kissimmee, Florida, citizens to join them in attempting to keep Planned Parenthood of Greater Orlando from opening an abortion mill in their community, which is just 20 minutes from Walt Disney World.
Many of the physicians oppose PPGO because they are pro-life. But others are incensed on a professional level, because Planned Parenthood wants to open up shop in the middle of a large complex of medical office buildings, pictured below, directly across the street from a hospital. http://www.lifenews.com/2014/

Think the Battle Against the Obamacare Abortion Mandate is Over? Think Again
Do you think the battle for religious freedom is over? Well, think again. One state is considering mandating abortion coverage.
Throughout the debate over the HHS mandate, the mandate’s supporters have depicted its opponents as alarmists who exaggerate the mandate’s impact. Conveniently overlooking sterilization and abortion-inducing drugs, they ask since only Catholics care about contraception, why should Protestants oppose the mandate? http://www.lifenews.com/2014/Do you think the battle for religious freedom is over?
