Abortion Wars: Bill That Would Ban Abortion After 20 Weeks Is Set for a Contentious Vote in the U.S. House

June 18, 2013 at 7:34am

The rape and incest exceptions opens the door to any woman claiming they’ve been raped if they want an abortion after the permitted time.

Duh.
Doctor Compares Deadly Abortion Injection to a Flu Shot or Vaccine, Says Unborn Baby ‘Not a Thinking Being’ Like Adults

Pretty creepy, but the Progressives have a history of demeaning life that is not considered “valuable” on their scale of value. If it’s not a valuable life, end it.

Who was it…….wasn’t it Rahm Emmanuel’s brother (a doctor) who wrote a book based on the value of a life —- and isn’t Obamacare built on this system?
Pro-Life Activists Reveal Gruesome Reasons Gosnell, Abortion Doctors Snip Babies’ Spines

In reply to Bamagal0007.

BamaGal, I stand outside an Atlanta late-term abortion clinic every Friday morning. Many of these mommies are coming from Bama. Let me help explain what I see and hear….

Society has convinced these young women that sex outside of marriage is not only normal, but expected. If you’re not having sex, there’s something wrong with you.

Smart women know to use birth control — only the stupid idiots actually get pregnant. Sounds about right, eh? Well, did you know that 54% of all women who have an unexpected pregnancy were taking birth control the month before? Nobody likes to mention that birth control is really a crap shoot.

When these “smart” women find themselves pregnant, they panic. THEY don’t want to be lumped into the stupid group, because that’s how our country universally labels them. Their shame is the #1 reason they seek an early abortion before anyone finds out.

Those at the late-term clinics fall into a different mindset. Why have they waited so long to abort? Often they want to keep the baby but are facing incredible pressure from their “support” system. Their parents or their boyfriends will often tell them how this baby will “ruin their life.” Their girlfriends tell them about their own abortions.

Too few people are willing to be outside these clinics to let them know that they have a support system available to them. Some of us try, but we are very much alone (and often maligned) in our efforts.
‘Praying for a Miracle’: Congresswoman Makes Tragic Facebook Announcement About Unborn Baby

June 4, 2013 at 3:37pm

This is a very difficult time for any parent given a dire prognosis for their baby. There are organizations which will help walk parents through this nightmare, helping them to find appropriate specialists and working with them to devise a birth plan and, if necessary, a funeral plan.

One such group is called “Be Not Afraid.” http://www.BeNotAfraid.net You can check out stories of families who have been helped by this all-volunteer organization — most of whom have gone through their own tragic stories of poor prenatal diagnosis.

To give some hope to Rep. Beutler, I personally know of a family where they were told their daughter would not survive the pregnancy due to a lack of amniotic fluid. I don’t know if they had a name for it at the time, but their daughter Rachel is now a perfectly healthy 14-year-old.

Pray for a miracle, but also know that there are people who have been down this road that are willing to walk this road with you and help sort out the whirling confusion that inevitably tries to take away all hope.
Obama Dodges Big Question on IRS Scandal

In reply to DLV.

I also noticed the Marine’s expression.

My next thought was “How do you train for holding an umbrella?” Can you imagine how hard it would be to keep your arm at a 90-degree angle, holding the umbrella steady (even in the wind) while looking like you’re enjoying it?

Gotta love those Marines!

I will add this to the Famous Presidential One-Liner Lies List:

Nixon: “I am NOT a CROOK!”

Bush 1: “Read My Lips! NO NEW TAXES!”

Clinton: “I did NOT have sexual relations with that woman!”

Obama: “I can assure you that I certainly did not know anything about (fill in the blank)”
Texas May Have Its Own Gosnell: Houston Doc Accused of Gruesome Illegal Abortions

May 16, 2013 at 12:33am

This is proof that Gosnell is not a rogue clinic. This is pervasive across the country.

We are culpable because most Americans are pro-life, but want to keep it at arm’s length. Photos and videos such as this are needed to WAKE UP AMERICA!
Gosnell Jurors Speak Out About Gruesome Abortion, Murder Case: ‘Somewhere, Something Went Wrong’ (Plus: He Gets Another Life Sentence)

May 15, 2013 at 6:47pm

In reply to John Valentine.

Gosnell’s clinic is not rogue. It’s par for the course for late term abortion clinics. In their mind it is as simple as this — the woman came in to kill her child. Their job is to kill it. That’s what they were paid for. Who cares where the baby’s body physically lies? Inside the womb or outside — no difference to them.

That’s the fact of abortion. It’s amazing how callous the industry has become, and now it is finally coming out.

Here is a shocking video where former clinic workers talk about how their abortionist not only slit the backs of babies born alive, he actually twisted their heads off their necks! The calm way that they talk about all of the horror is chilling. I believe it is Douglas Karpen’s clinic — and he is still OPEN FOR BUSINESS!

Gosnell Jury Is Hung on Two Counts in Abortion Doctor’s Murder Trial — Here Are the Details

May 13, 2013 at 11:40am

In reply to WhiteFang.

Unfortunately, abortion is permitted in this country right up until the birth of the baby. The women can’t be held accountable for murder charges for doing something that is legal.

What Gosnell is being tried for is murdering a live person. Five times.
The Racial Statistics of Abortion Cannot Be Ignored

May 13, 2013 at 11:33am

In reply to GrannyATL.

Uten, I agree completely. But, since the article’s author was trying to say that the high abortion statistics for black minorities is due to eugenics, I felt it was necessary to point out my own observations.

Margaret Sanger absolutely targeted “undesirables” in her attempt to create a pure race, but that successfully morphed into the “population control” mantra, whereby responsible couples limit their reproduction to only two children and only children that can be adequately cared for are deemed worthy to be born. The lives of these unborn children became dehumanized as we insisted they be called fetuses rather than babies.

Both women and men have become morally depraved, removing sex from procreation. A pregnancy is considered a nuisance rather than a blessing.

My point to the author was simply that the culture within the black community has created a norm wherein fatherless households is much more at fault in the high percentage of abortions than targeted eugenics is.
