Democrats to Hold Hearing on Bill to Wipe Out Almost Every Single Pro-Life Law on AbortionSenate Democrats will hold a hearing on a bill tomorrow that would wipe out almost every single pro-life law on abortion.
S.1696 is deceptively titled the “Women’s Health Protection Act” even though it revokes protections for women and their unborn children. Instead, the bill would be far reaching in how it would topple pro-life laws passed in virtually every state in the country. http://www.lifenews.com/2014/07/14/senate-democrats-to-hold-hearing-on-bill-to-wipe-out-every-single-pro-life-law-on-abortion/

We at LifeNews.com have profiled the myriad of ways in which the Post, over the years, has been a leader in media bias by virtue of its one-sided reporting on pro-life issues. Amazingly, the liberal giant took Pelosi, Reid and other top pro-abortion Democrats to task. http://www.lifenews.com/2014/07/14/washington-post-takes-pelosi-and-reid-to-task-over-hobby-lobby-rhetoric-not-facts/
