‘Controversy’ Over: National Right to Life Vouches for Cain’s Pro-Life Bona Fides

We should consider the abortion kerfuffle kicked off by the Piers Morgan interview Wednesday as being decisively ended now: The National Right to Life Committee is today [Friday] vouching for Republican presidential candidate Herman Cain’s bona fides, saying the businessman who is considered by many to be the current GOP frontrunner is pro-life. … “Herman Cain’s pro-life,” [...]

‘Money Is Fungible’: ObamaCare and the Fight to Defund Planned Parenthood

Calling for Congress to pass the Protect Life Act — which would prevent Planned Parenthood from getting funded by ObamaCare — Charmaine Yoest of Americans United for Life said: ““Money is fungible. Taxpayers should not be involuntary donors to the abortion industry and health care workers’ conscience rights must be protected.” (Click here for full statement.) [...]

House GOP: ‘Instead of Raising Taxes, Why Don’t We Stop Funding Abortion?’

An excellent suggestion! A Congressional committee has taken the first steps in investigating the Planned Parenthood abortion business over abuses ranging from financial disparities to its compliance with federal regulations on taxpayer funding to concerns that it is covering up cases of sex trafficking. In a September 15 letter LifeNews.com obtained, Rep. Cliff Stearns, a [...]

President Obama: He May Be Losing the Congressional Black Caucus …

. . . and when even Maxine Waters seems disaffected, you gotta wonder who’s still on his side. But there is one constituency whose loyalty toward Obama is unshakeable: The Abortion Industry!

Bachmann Will Co-Host, Rick Perry Will Co-Chair Pro-Life Group’s November Gala

Need a demonstration of the continued influence of the pro-life movement in Republican Party politics? When Americans United for Life announced its 40th anniversary gala, the long list of congressional co-hosts included Michele Bachmann — who just won the Iowa GOP straw poll — while Texas Gov. Rick Perry is among three honorary co-chairs for [...]

VIDEO: ‘Demographic Winter’

My wife and I have six children, which is three times the national average in the U.S. People often ask, “Are you Catholic?” No, we’re proudly Protestant. Yet one cannot ignore the fact that, almost alone among major Christian denominations, the Catholic Church has a well-developed pro-life, pro-family doctrine as part of its basic belief [...]

Pro-Life Republicans Hail ‘Blueprint’ for Investigation of Planned Parenthood

“This is a blueprint — this is an engraved invitation to investigate,” Rep. Chris Smith (R-N.J.) said Thursday of a new report documenting taxpayer-funded abuses by the nation’s largest abortion provider. “Planned Parenthood has never been adequately investigated,” he said. Smith, a veteran pro-life leader in Congress, was one of several House Republicans who called for hearings during [...]

GOP Freshmen Will Call for Congressional Investigation of Planned Parenthood

Reacting to a new report about the taxpayer-funded activities of Planned Parenthood, Rep. Renee Ellmers has warned her House colleagues of “systemic fraud and abuse” by the nation’s largest abortion provider. A first-term North Carolina Republican, Ellmers will be joined by fellow GOP freshmen Rep. Rep. Randy Hultgren of Illinois and Rep. Bill Huizenga of Michigan, [...]

Science Gone Wrong

Instapundit’s enthusiasm for all things scientific leads him to write this headline: MORE WOMEN ARE freezing their eggs to make babies later. Makes sense. Well, excuse me for disagreeing. It is a preposterously stupid idea to encourage women deliberately to postpone first-time motherhood until they are middle-aged, without concern for the obvious arguments against such a decision. For [...]

Wow! Strange Plot Twists in #WeinerGate’s Third Act

A sentence you won’t see me write very often: Tommy Christopher has done some excellent reporting. Tommy’s story about @PatriotUSA and a 16-year-old girl who (falsely) claimed her friend was involved in Twitter “sexting” with Rep. Anthony Weiner is an absolute must-read. (BTW, Mediaite has posted Tommy’s story as five different pages, without a “single page view” or [...]

‘The Light of the World’

That painting by Charles Chambers is titled The Light of the World. Many years ago, a print of that painting hung in a first-grade classroom. But then the Supreme Court forbade religion in public schools, which meant the painting of baby Jesus had to go, and so the teacher took it home with her. Years [...]

Good-Bye, Global Population Control!

And it’s certainly about time! Spurred on by a public vote in which pro-life advocates said cutting funding for the pro-abortion UNFPA agency was their top desire, Congressional Republicans have filed legislation to yank millions from the UN organization. . . . The vote at the popular YouCut web site makes it so the public [...]
