Schilling says Disclose Act is Unconstitutional

Bobby Schilling

Bobby Schilling, Republican candidate for Congress in the 17th District, condemned the Disclose Act on Thursday. The Disclose Act is a new campaign finance reform law being pushed through Congress. Schilling argued that the bill was politically motivated and unconstitutional.

"I oppose the Disclose Act for two major reasons," Schilling said. "First of all, I believe it violates the first amendment. This bill is intended to squelch speech that is currently constitutionally protected. Secondly, I don't believe this is a serious attempt at campaign finance reform. If we're going to change the rules of the game, they have to apply to everyone. Congress is working out backroom deals with certain special interest groups to give them exemptions, and that is categorically unfair."

Schilling also criticized the hasty nature with which the Disclose Act is being pushed through Congress.

"Thoughtful reform takes time," Schilling said. "You need to have input from both sides of the aisle, and the Constitution absolutely needs to be considered. It's unnerving to think that our current leadership is so quick to push through legislation that almost everyone agrees restricts freedom of speech."

Schilling, a native of Rock Island, graduated from Alleman High School and attended Black Hawk College. Schilling, a local business owner and father of ten children, is the Republican candidate for the 17th Congressional District in Illinois. Bobby is running on a platform of bringing jobs and real representation back to the 17th District. Earlier this year, Schilling conducted a 34-city "Bob's for Jobs" tour, where he met with voters and employers all across the 17th District.

Assisted Suicide Clinic Entrepreneur License to Practice Medicine Suspended

Oregon Medical Board voted 8-0 to suspend Stuart G. Weisberg

Awww. Dr, Stuart–Big Heart–Weisberg, who wants to open up an assisted suicide clinic in which one can off themselves to the strains of beautiful music with Weisberg and his therapy dog at their sides for $5000, has had his license to practice suspended. From the story:

A Portland psychiatrist who plans to open a private facility where people could end their lives under Oregon’s assisted-suicide law was suspended from medical practice Thursday amid a second investigation for improperly prescribing drugs. The Oregon Medical Board voted 8-0 to suspend Stuart G. Weisberg, 37, a solo practitioner in Northwest Portland specializing in treating addictions…In 2006, the board gave Weisberg a five-year reprimand for improperly prescribing psychoactive drugs to seven patients who were recovering drug addicts or suffering chronic pain. Last year, the board lifted the reprimand but put Weisberg under the watch of another doctor. Haley said Thursday the “practice mentor” recently informed the medical board that Weisberg had terminated the relationship. The board learned that during the mentoring, Weisberg had wrongly authorized a medical-marijuana card for a drug addict and had improperly prescribed a different drug for another patient.

Swell guy. The suspensions do not appear to involve his proposed Dignity House. Looks like the limited liability companies may just have to wait.

ND 88 Pro-Lifer Suffers Heart Attack, Diagnosed with Stress Disorder Thanks to Prosecution

Thanks to the strain of being subjected to criminal prosecution on charges of trespassing, one of the 88 peaceful pro-life protesters arrested at the University of Notre Dame in May of last year recently suffered a heart attack. According to Dr. Therese Beste's doctor, she continues to suffer from post-traumatic stress related to the prosecution.

The doctor's diagnosis has been submitted to the pro-lifers' defense lawyer as members of the group, known as the "Notre Dame 88," continue to face prosecution and a possible penalty of up to a year in jail and a $5,000 fine.

Beste, a Michigan resident, told LifeSiteNews.com (LSN) that she travelled to Indiana in May 2009 because she was "horrified" to learn that Notre Dame, "Our Blessed Mother's University," would be honoring "the most pro-abortion politician in our nation." The university had invited Obama to give the commencement address and receive an honorary law degree.

Beste says she is a devotee of the Virgin Mary, to whose intercession Roman Catholics attribute the end of ritual child sacrifice among Native Americans, after Mary appeared in a vision to Mexican peasant Juan Diego 500 years ago. Beste said, "Our Lady would be horrified to see a proponent of more child sacrifice walking on her ground. "

"The affront to Our Lady, to life and the graphic example of the lack of good, solid Catholic teaching in our Catholic schools came together for me at Notre Dame and I could no longer stand by and watch," she said. Beste said she joined a group led by Monica Miller of Citizens for a Pro-Life Society.

When pro-life and pro-Obama protesters converged on Notre Dame's campus on commencement day, witnesses say only pro-lifers - recognizable for carrying pro-life imagery, rosaries, crosses, and pictures of Mary - were arrested. Since then, University president Fr. John Jenkins has stubbornly refused to request leniency for the ND 88, who are now under the power of the county prosecutor. Pro-life leaders and Notre Dame alumni have urged Jenkins to reach out to the pro-lifers, as his influence on their behalf would likely have great weight in convincing the prosecutor to drop the charges.

While she said the day of her arrest was "joyous and grace-filled," Beste relates that she later experienced "nights and nights of great anxiety and worry, horrific dreams of being shot by a firing squad and falling into a pit."

"I feared going to jail for a year and what this would do to my kids," she said. "That was an unexpected development for me: I thought we would get a fine and a ticket. I never expected to be so persecuted for standing for Catholic beliefs on a Catholic campus by my fellow Catholics."

Eventually Beste suffered a heart attack and underwent open-heart surgery, which she called "the most painful thing that I have ever experienced."

A note obtained by LSN from Dr. Jeffrey Bossenberger, a physician, confirmed that Beste's stress over the events connected to her prosecution has led to worsened health.

"I feel she is suffering from post traumatic stress from [the prosecution] and obvious depression as well as her other medical problems," he wrote. "I highly recommend, at this point, that ... this case be put on hold until she is in further stable condition, both physically and mentally, or this case be pushed for dismissal."

Beste said that she continues to pray that Notre Dame "become a true Catholic School again and to put morality and Truth ahead of prestige and worldly glory, or it will cease to exist, cursed by the Lord for not bearing fruit."

Pre-abortion Counseling Should Include Questions on Abuse and Coercion Say Post-Abortive Women

Silent No More Awareness

Leaders of the Silent No More Awareness Campaign (SNMAC), the world's largest network of individuals harmed by abortion, said today that a new study on the link between women who suffer physical or sexual abuse and their later abortions does not go far enough in identifying how women seeking abortion should be counseled.

"A Planned Parenthood official who participated in this Iowa study admits that her organization has not been asking women about any abuse they've suffered," said Janet Morana, co-founder of SNMAC. "That Planned Parenthood has been aborting women's babies for four decades and is only now talking about maybe asking women if they've been abused shows that women's lives are of no consequence to them."

"Actually, asking women if they've suffered physical attacks by their babies' fathers would be an innovation for Planned Parenthood," added Georgette Forney, also a co-founder of SNMAC. "What the organization's sales staff should really do, but which they will refuse to do, is ask women if they've been coerced by a boyfriend, husband, or parent to have the abortion. We know that feigning concern for women is one thing for Planned Parenthood, asking women questions that might cause them not to abort is quite another."

Since the launching of the Silent No More Awareness Campaign in 2003, 3,877 women and men have shared their testimonies publicly at over 572 gatherings in 48 states and ten countries where more than 110,830 attendees have heard the truth about abortion's negative aftereffects. More than 9,027 people are registered to be Silent No More. Raising awareness about the hurtful aftermath of abortion and the help that is available to cope with the pain are two of the Campaign's goals.

Parents Outraged at Planned Parenthood Class Teaching Sexual Positions

Planned Parenthood's Sex Ed

Parents in Southwest Iowa have reacted in horror after learning that Planned Parenthood's co-ed sex education course not only used pornographic teaching materials but also taught children sexual positions.

Colleen Dostal told Fox News Radio, after discovering that her 14-year-old son had been taught sexual positions using stuffed animals meant to represent STDs, that the class was "horribly inappropriate."

“I do not understand why any adult with a classroom of children would show them sexual positions,” she told Fox.

Dostal said the class also included directions on performing female exams and used an anatomically correct model of a male sex organ to explain how to use a condom.

The parents said the school's principal was "mortified" when told the content of the class and apologized. Several other parents complained to school superintendent Dick Profit. Profit, however, claimed he had received equal numbers of calls supporting and opposing the explicit sex-ed, according to the World Herald.

Speaking for Planned Parenthood, Jennifer Horner defended the curriculum as giving children "accurate" information.

"We are not trying to keep any of this a secret. All information we use is medically accurate and science based," she said.

Planned Parenthood's extremely explicit take on teen sex-ed is evident from the "Teen Talk" section of their website, a series of pages decorated with images of heterosexual and homosexual intimacy, which leads youngsters to a wealth of information on deviant sexual practices.

One page entitled "All about the anus: how much do you really know about your anus?" gives explicit details on anal penetration as a source of sexual pleasure and "as a way to preserve the woman's virginity." While noting that anal penetration "is, of course, high risk for HIV," PP advocates using condoms or "Sheer Glyde dams" to protect against the fatal virus.

Elsewhere, Planned Parenthood dedicates a web page to advocating masturbation as "safe and healthy, and it's here to stay." The article hails the painkilling and stress-relieving qualities of masturbation, and assures that it's "fine" to do so several times a day.

Federal Court of Appeal Reinstates Case Against the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services to Stop Federal Funding of Research Involving the Destruction of Living Human Embryos

The Great Stem Cell Debate

Today the United States Court of Appeals for the District of Columbia issued its decision finding that doctors doing adult stem cell research have 'competitive standing' to sue. Therefore, the court reinstated the doctors' federal lawsuit, filed last summer that seeks to preliminarily enjoin and ultimately overturn the controversial guidelines for public funding of embryonic stem cell research that the National Institutes of Health issued on July 7, 2009. The implementation of these guidelines marks the first time that taxpayer dollars will be used to fund research that will result in the destruction of human embryos. Since 1994, Congress has expressly banned NIH from funding research in which human embryos "are destroyed, discarded, or knowingly subjected to risk of injury or death."

According to Thomas G. Hungar, one of the lawyers for the plaintiffs, "the language of the statute is clear. It bans public funding for any research that leads to the destruction of human embryos. NIH's attempt to avoid Congress's command by funding everything but the act of 'harvesting' is pure sophistry. The guidelines will result in the destruction of human embryos and are unlawful, unethical, and unnecessary."

The plaintiffs contend that the NIH guidelines violate the congressional ban because they "necessarily condition funding on the destruction of human embryos." In addition, the plaintiffs also allege that the NIH guidelines were invalidly implemented, because the decision to fund human embryonic stem cell research was made without the proper procedures required by law and without properly considering the more effective and less ethically problematic forms of adult and induced pluripotent stem cell research.

President Obama, in his March 11, 2009 Executive Order announcing his Administration's policy stated he was determined to fund ethically "responsible, scientifically worthy human stem cell research...to the extent permitted by law." Sadly, these guidelines while claiming to "implement" the President's directions, fail his own test because they are not only unlawful, they are based upon an ethically irresponsible misunderstanding of available scientific evidence. One of the expert stem cell researcher plaintiffs, Dr. James L. Sherley, explained that "the great irony of the guidelines is that research involving stem cells safely derived from human adults and other sources presents the same if not greater potential for medical breakthroughs, without any of the troubling legal and ethical issues related to embryonic stem-cell research." Clinical trials using adult stem cells have successfully reversed the effects of diseases such as lupus, multiple sclerosis, and rheumatoid arthritis. The plaintiffs argue that because NIH promulgated its guidelines with a preconceived determination to fund human embryonic stem cell research and without considering these scientifically and ethically superior alternatives, the guidelines are invalid regulations and should be struck down.

Dr. David Stevens, Executive Director of Christian Medical Association, an organization of more than 16,000 doctors who are also plaintiffs in the case, said "we are opposed to this proposed illegal and unethical federal funding of destructive embryonic research that would compel every American to cooperate with such unlawful human experimentation and the violation of our fundamental medical research ethic never to lethally experiment on one human being simply to benefit the interests of other human beings."

Sam Casey, Co-counsel for the plaintiffs and General Counsel of Advocates International's Law of Life Project, a public interest legal project specializing in cutting-edge bio-ethical issues, added: "The majority of the almost 50,000 comments that the NIH received were opposed to funding this research, and by its own admission, NIH totally ignored these comments. The so-called spare human embryos being stored in IVF clinics around the United States are not 'in excess of need,' as the NIH in its guidelines callously assert. They are human beings in need of biological or adoptive parents."

The lawsuit is brought by a broad coalition of plaintiffs, including Dr. James L. Sherley, a former member of the MIT faculty, currently working as a senior scientist at the Boston Biomedical Research Institute; Dr. Theresa Deisher, the founder, managing member, and research and development director of AVM Biotechnology; Nightlight Christian Adoptions, a non-profit, licensed adoption agency dedicated to protecting and finding adoptive parents for human embryos conceived through in vitro fertilization; all individual human embryos whose lives are now at risk under NIH's guidelines; parents seeking to adopt human embryos; and the Christian Medical Association, a non-profit association of doctors dedicated to improving ethical standards of health care in the United States and abroad. The Alliance Defense Fund, a legal alliance of Christian attorneys and like-minded organizations defending religious freedom and the sanctity of human life, is also serving as co-counsel on the case and providing financial support.

HPV Vaccine Blinds 16-Year-Old Girl

A 16-year-old girl lost nearly all of her vision within 10 days of receiving the second course of her vaccine against the human papilloma virus (HPV), reports a case study in the Journal of Child Neurology. The HPV vaccine is designed to prevent infection by the strains of the virus that are responsible for the majority of cervical cancer and genital warts cases. The study recounts the case of a previously healthy teenage girl who developed a headache on the left side of her head and began to lose vision in her right eye eight days after receiving her second HPV vaccine shot. Over the course of the following 48 hours, the pain spread across her head and she began to lose sight in her left eye as well.

Study Finds Link In Domestic Abuse, Abortion

Women seeking to kill their babies by abortion are more likely to have experienced partner violence than the general population, according to a recent study by University of Iowa professors and Planned Parenthood of the Heartland. The study, published in the American Journal of Public Health, was based on a series of private screenings of 986 women seeking abortions at Planned Parenthood on issues of physical and sexual abuse, as well as battering. Researchers completed the study over a period of 81?2 months; all the participants were Iowa residents. Researchers found nearly 14 percent of the women who sought abortions had experienced domestic violence from a partner in the previous 12 months. And 74 percent of those women said they had been abused by a former partner rather than their current partner.

Massachusetts School Officials Under Fire For Giving Condoms to Little Elementary School Children

Free condoms for grade schoolers? Not so fast, says Massachusetts Gov. Deval Patrick. Patrick urged a Cape Cod school superintendent to reconsider the idea of giving out free condoms to all students who ask for them - including kids as young as first grade. "Comprehensive reproductive health education needs to be done in an age appropriate manner," Patrick said in a statement reported by WBZ television in Boston. "In those instances where local communities have agreed to make condoms available in school clinical settings, the norm - according to our Department of Public Health - is high school."

Retired British GP Admits Killing Patients without Consent: Could Face Charges

A retired UK doctor believes he has been treated “harshly” by medical and legal authorities after he admitted to deliberately killing some of his patients without their consent.

“I twice helped people die, not because they wanted to die but because they had such dreadful suffering,” Dr. Howard Martin admitted in a video interview with the Daily Telegraph.

Last week the General Medical Council (GMC) found Martin guilty of professional misconduct, saying that he had knowingly “hastened the deaths” of 18 patients by giving them excessive doses of morphine. The GMC called his conduct “despicable and dangerous,” and police are now investigating whether criminal charges could be pressed.

Abortion policy destroying European societies, Spanish bishop warns

Bishop Demetrio Fernandez of Cordoba in Spain said pro-abortion policies are leading to “the destruction of society,” to the degree that “prosperous European societies such as Germany, France or Holland, among others, are now dying. He stressed that the same thing is currently taking place in Spain.

In an interview with Europa Press, Bishop Fernandez said the situation facing Europe is obvious. “If nothing more, if there are no children, there will not be a sufficient number of workers. But it doesn’t seem that anyone is concerned about this issue and only the Church is speaking up.”

This Afternoon: Congress Votes on Grassroots Muzzle, 'DISCLOSE Act'

This Afternoon: Congress Votes on Grassroots Muzzle, ‘DISCLOSE Act’

Congress Votes on Grassroots Muzzle

Armed with the inspiration that comes from political desperation, the Democrat-controlled House of Representatives is scheduled to vote on campaign finance bill Thursday that critics on both the left and the right say will disable grassroots political opposition – including the nascent “Tea Party” movement that has been looking to sweep away liberal incumbents in November.

According to House Republican sources, the House began meeting at 10:00 a.m. for legislative business and are now taking up H.R. 5175, the “Democracy is Strengthened by Casting Light on Spending in Elections (DISCLOSE) Act” that has pro-life, pro-family groups, and even the ACLU crying foul.

The Act would force grassroots organizations to release the names of donors and members of their organizations into a publicly searchable database, and frustrate the ability of grassroots entities to communicate effectively with the public about public policy.

Sources with House GOP leadership say they expect a final vote in the House anytime between 2:45 – 3:15 p.m.

Once passed by the House and Senate and signed into law by President Barack Obama, the act would take effect in 30 days, even if the Federal Elections Commission has not yet crafted new guidelines – just in time for the mid-term elections in November.

House members have had virtually no time to read the final version of the bill devised yesterday by the House Rules Committee. Only the Rules Committee for certain knows what details have been included or deleted at the last moment behind closed doors. But instead of waiting for Congressmen and their staff to analyze the final bill, the Democrat leadership is determined to force through a vote today by invoking a “Martial Law Rule.”

The Martial Law Rule dispenses with a longstanding House rule (Rule XIII(6)(a)), which is intended to give U.S. Representatives and the public enough time to understand significant legislation. The rule requires that there be at least one day between the bill’s unveiling and the House floor vote. Under normal rules a bill can only be considered on the same legislative day as reported by the Rules Committee if two-thirds of the House agree – but the Martial Law Rule dispenses with that process entirely.

The rule has been used before by House Republicans when they were in the majority, but critics on both the left and the right have denounced the tactic. They say it empowers a party’s leadership to act in an authoritarian manner and endangers democratic self-government by forcing members to vote blind on measures they want enacted.

Once the Martial Law rule is passed, the House will engage in a series of votes culminating in the adoption of the rule for H.R. 5175, which should conclude before the House takes a break anticipated for 11:45 a.m.

During the afternoon, the House will then have just one hour of general debate on H.R. 5175 – a bill they have not had time to read – which will then be followed by debate on the five amendments permitted under the Rule.

In a June 18 letter to Congress, the ACLU wrote that, “This bill fails to improve the integrity of our campaigns in any substantial way while significantly harming the speech and associational rights of Americans.”

Under the bill, all groups subject to the law’s requirements would have to list all donors of $600 or more with the Federal Election Commission (FEC). Groups must also post a hyperlink on their website to the FEC, where a list of the names of their donors can be accessed.

But the DISCLOSE Act exempts large 501(c)4 groups – like the 4 million strong NRA and 750,000 member Sierra Club – from having to report their donors if they have at least 500,000 members, over 10 years of existence, chapters in all 50 states, and receive no more than 15 percent of total contributions from corporations.

The ACLU noted the irony that a bill ostensibly dedicated to uprooting corruption in the political process would exempt entrenched “mainstream” political interests from its reporting requirements, while “smaller organizations and those just starting out would have to disclose their donors in order to engage in political speech.”

“Those groups not challenging the status quo would be protected; those challenging the status quo would be suppressed,” they concluded.

The bill also requires that every time an organization runs a campaign ad, its CEO must appear in the ad and state twice his name and the organization’s name. The top five funders of the organization behind the ad – even if they had nothing to do with the ad’s funding – must also have their names listed in the ad.

In addition, the most “significant” donor to the organization must list his name, rank, and organization three times in the ad. Critics of the bill say that the disclaimers effectively consume valuable airtime bought by these groups that would otherwise be used to inform voters about a candidate’s record.

Other affected entities will likely include vocal liberal and conservative groups that communicate through the internet. While traditional media organizations like newspapers and television stations are exempt from the bill, bloggers, the vanguard of the “new media,” are not.

Top Democrats Won't Say If Elena Kagan Should Justify Her Abortion Views

     Sen. Patrick Leahy, D-Vt.

Sens. Patrick Leahy (D-Vt.) and Dick Durbin (D-Ill.) each refused to say whether Supreme Court nominee Elena Kagan should have to justify her view on abortion at her upcoming confirmation hearing.

Leahy, the chairman of the Senate Judiciary Committee, and Durbin, the Senate Majority Whip, were asked by CNSNews.com whether they agreed with former federal judge and Supreme Court nominee Robert Bork, who said on Wednesday that Kagan should have to explain the origins of her views on abortion.

“I think the first set of inquiries should go into what she considers the materials from which she should draw in deciding, for example, the constitutional right to an abortion, which I don’t think exists,” Bork said during a conference call. “[S]he ought to be asked what basis – on what materials – does she base that [opinion].”

When asked by CNSNews.com whether Kagan should have to explain her views on abortion, Leahy didn’t answer directly.

“I don’t listen to special interests groups on the right or on the left,” Leahy said. “I consider myself a pretty good lawyer, [and] I’ll make up my mind which questions to ask. You will know what I think is appropriate by the questions I’m going to ask.”


     Senate Majority Whip Dick Durbin, D-Ill.

Durbin, asked the same question, predicted that Kagan would be “cautious” in expressing her views. Like Leahy, he did not actually say whether Kagan should explain why she thinks abortion is a constitutional right.

“I bet that it’s one of the early questions asked – about her position on Roe v. Wade – whether she thinks that there are any variations on that that we ought to consider. I think it’s been asked of every nominee in some form, so I expect that,” Durbin said.

Durbin said he expects Kagan to be “careful.”

“Even though she’s written articles saying that nominees should be more forthcoming, I’m sure she’s been cautioned to follow precedent and she’ll be careful. I hope we can get some answers – more direct answers,” Durbin said.

Kagan, the current solicitor General of the United States, previously has published articles calling for Supreme Court nominees to be more forthcoming about their views on the law and the Constitution.

Following is a transcript of CNSNews.com’s questions to Sens. Leahy and Durbin and their reponses:

CNSNews.com to Sen. Leahy: Judge Bork today said that she [Supreme Court nominee Elena Kagan] should be asked to justify her views on abortion, where they come from. Do you think that she should be asked?

Leahy: You know what? As I said, I don’t listen to special interests groups on the right or on the left. I consider myself a pretty good lawyer [and] I’ll make up my mind which questions to ask. You will know what I think is appropriate by the questions I’m going to ask.

CNSNews.com to Sen. Dick Durbin: One of the things Judge Bork said was that she [Elena Kagan] should have to justify – and really just name – whether or not she thinks there’s a constitutional right to an abortion and justify those views. Not asking whether or not you’d ask that, but do you think that she should? Do you think he’s right that she should?

Durbin: I bet that it’s one of the early questions asked – about her position on Roe v. Wade – whether she thinks that there are any variations on that that we ought to consider. I think it’s been asked of every nominee in some form, so I expect that.

CNSNews.com: So do you think [crosstalk] that’s the point, you never get an answer [from previous nominees] -- do you think that she should give a full explanation?

Durbin: I think that they come close [more crosstalk]

CNSNews.com: Should she go ahead and instead of the super-duper precedent, that kind of thing, go ahead and just lay out the case, [what] in her mind the case is, if she supports it? Is that something you’d like to see?

Durbin: I don’t know that volunteering information to the Senate Judiciary Committee…

CNSNews.com: Well if she’s asked…

Durbin: Well, if she’s asked that’s one thing, but when you start volunteering information in this type of a hearing it may turn out to be problematic.

CNSNews.com: Well if she’s asked, should she just lay it out?

Durbin: She’ll be careful. Even though she’s written articles saying that nominees should be more forthcoming, I’m sure she’s been cautioned to follow precedent and she’ll be careful. I hope we can get some answers – more direct answers.

Debating Where Life Begins

Yes, at fertilization, gametes cease to be and a new organism takes their place.

Fertilization in humans and other mammals produces a new member of the species in the embryonic stage of its natural development. That is to say, the entity produced by the union of spermatozoon and oocyte is a complete, though developmentally immature, organism. Unlike the gametes — the sperm and egg cells independent of each other — it is no mere part of another organism, nor is it merely something that can be used to produce a complete organism. At fertilization, the ovum and the sperm cease to be and something new comes to be — an organism (the embryo) whose genetic constitution and epigenetic state orient and dispose it to develop in the direction of maturity as a member of the species.

Christian Students Sue High School over Discrimination against Pro-Life Messages

Late yesterday, Liberty Counsel (LC) filed a complaint in federal court in New Mexico to stop what they called the “censorship” of a group of students at Roswell High School and Goddard High School called “Relentless in Roswell.”

One day, students handed out small rubber models of preborn babies before class. The models showed the babies at 12 weeks gestation and were each labeled with Biblical references and pro-life messages.

School officials seized hundreds of the baby models, including from some students who were not distributing them, and reportedly told the students, “It’s time to shut this down. Some people are getting offended.”

New York pro-aborts bicker over bill authorizing late-term abortions

10% of all U.S. abortions are committed in the State of New York. (Guttmacher's latest figures have the US at 1.21 million abortions annually, and the NY Dept. of Health's latest figures have it at 118.381 abortions annually.)

But that's not enough. Even though pro-aborts consistently downplay the number of late-term abortions, NY pro-aborts want the gateway opened for more.

Although the US Supreme Court in 1973 basically ordained abortion on demand throughout all 9 months of pregnancy by writing a health exception through which a Mack truck could drive, preexisting NY State law only allows abortion after 24 weeks to save a pregnant mother's life. Plus, abortions after 24 weeks must be attended by a 2nd physician to care for the potentially viable child.

New England Journal of Medicine: Blindness Reversed in Dozens of Patients By Adult—Not Embryonic—Stem Cell Therapy

Stem Cells Reverse Blindness Caused by Burns

Dozens of people who were blinded or otherwise suffered severe eye damage when they were splashed with caustic chemicals had their sight restored with transplants of their own stem cells--a stunning success for the burgeoning cell-therapy field, Italian researchers reported Wednesday.

The treatment worked completely in 82 of 107 eyes and partially in 14 others, with benefits lasting up to a decade so far. One man whose eyes were severely damaged more than 60 years ago now has near-normal vision.

Democrat Women Want Federal Tax Dollars To Help Kill New Jersey Babies

A group of Democrat women lawmakers in New Jersey are pressing to restore $7.5 million in funding for family planning after failed tries this week by legislative leaders to get Republican Gov. Chris Christie to agree to it. The funding was not included Christie's $29.4 billion budget as he looked for ways to close an $11 billion deficit. The lawmakers said Wednesday the move marked "height of fiscal irresponsibility" because the state could receive $9 in federal aid for every $1 spent in Medicaid funding. Twenty-seven other states receive the funding. The Department of Human Services has withdrawn the state's application to extend Medicaid coverage for family planning. The federal government reimburses states for the services at the rate of 90 percent.

Jindal signs abortion regulation bill

Louisiana's health secretary now has more discretion to shut down an abortion clinic for safety or health concerns. Gov. Bobby Jindal signed the bill into law Wednesday that gives the head of the Department of Health and Hospitals the ability to quickly suspend a license if he decides there is an immediate health or safety threat at one of a handful of clinics in the state that provide abortions. Clinics can appeal the license suspension. Parks Rep. Fred Mills, sponsor of the new law, has said the change puts the health secretary's authority over outpatient abortion clinics in line with the authority he has over other kinds of health care facilities, like substance abuse and adult day care facilities.

Prominent NARAL, Planned Parenthood speaker and former Clinton administration legal eagle predicts overturn of Roe v. Wade

     Partial List of Past NARAL Pro-Choice America Speakers
       Click here to enlarge the graphic

NARAL will likely be scratching Walter Dellinger off its speakers list, as will Planned Parenthood....

Dellinger is obviously a pro-abort who served in the Clinton administration as an assistant attorney general and head of the Office of Legal Counsel. During the 1996-1997 Supreme Court term Dellinger served as acting Solicitor General. Dellinger is currently a law professor at Duke University and head of a DC law firm.

So the other side will certainly consider Dellinger's remarks on the future of legalized abortion, given last night during a debate at George Washington University, tantamount to pro-abort treason. That the debate was cosponsored by liberal think tank Center for American Progress (as well as the conservative American Action Forum and Politico) adds salt to the wound. This morning Politico reported:

Former acting Solicitor General Walter Dellinger predicted Tuesday night that the Supreme Court will overturn Roe vs. Wade, the landmark decision that gives women abortion rights....

The noted liberal scholar said the 1973 decision has become a "trophy" that the court's conservative bloc could overturn if a Republican president chooses a replacement for Justice Anthony Kennedy.

"I absolutely believe it," Dellinger said during a forum....

"For a while I thought that one could simply chip away at a lot more and more regulations that sort of protected access (to abortions) for the most affluent women but really made it impossible for women who were vulnerable to geography, poverty (and) youth," he added. "But now I think that, actually, it is such a symbol of a kind of jurisprudence that conservatives have set themselves in opposition to."

Such a decision by the Supreme Court would pour barrels of gasoline onto the now smoldering fires of the never-ending culture war....

Psychiatrist to Open Assisted Suicide Clinic in Oregon

Psychiatrist to Open Assisted Suicide Clinic

Just great. In Oregon, an assisted suicide clinic is going to be established. From the story:

Portland psychiatrist Dr. Stuart Weisberg plans to open a house in the Sellwood neighborhood where the terminally ill can kill themselves under Oregon’s Death with Dignity Law. Weisberg told KGW-TV he felt compelled to act after watching a TV interview with Dr. Jack Kevorkian, who pioneered assisted suicide. Under Oregon law, a terminally ill state resident with only six months to live may receive a lethal dose of drugs from a pharmacy if two doctors agree.

Hey Doc, Kevorkian supports human vivisection, what he calls “obitiatry.” Do you want to open an obitiatry clinic too?

Imagine a psychiatrist pushing suicide! This should be considered a breach of professional ethics because it puts the authority of the mental health professions in favor of self destruction. Here’s a novel idea: How about a clinic to help people not want to commit assisted suicide? Nah. No news in that.

Physicians for Reproductive Choice: 2010 Abortion Provider Awards

Physicians for Reproductive Choice and Health held its 2010 Abortion Provider awards ceremony on May 24. I always find pro-abort events creepily intriguing.

Winner of this year's William K. Rashbaum, MD, Abortion Provider Award (which "honors a physician who provides outstanding abortion services and serves as an inspirational leader for colleagues, residents, and medical students") was abortionist Carolyn Westhoff, presented by late-term abortionist LeRoy Carhart...


     Abortionist Carolyn Westhoff with abortionist LeRoy Carhart

I concur Westhoff was well-deserving of this award, and partial birth abortion bud Carhart was just the guy to give it to her. Both were plaintiffs against the ban. Westhoff testified there was "usually a heartbeat" when she started suctioning a baby's brain out and on the topic of fetal pain acknowledged, "I certainly know based on my experience that the fetus will withdraw in response to a painful stimulus."...

According to PRCH Westhoff was also instrumental in bringing RU-486 to the U.S. Also:

... Westhoff is medical director of the NY Presbyterian Hospital Family Planning Clinic, professor of epidemiology and population and family health, and professor of obstetrics and gynecology, all at Columbia University.... In her 24 years at Columbia, she has expanded the hospital's minimal abortion services into a robust program of patient care, training, and research.


     William K. Rashbaum, MD, Abortion Provider Award

Dr. Westhoff was a... founding member of PRCH... and serves on the board of the Planned Parenthood Federation of America.

So seriously, with all those credentials, did PRCH really only bestow Westhoff with a little coffee cup bouquet?

Winner of the George Tiller, MD, Abortion Provider Award (which "recognizes a physician early in his or her career who provides abortions while demonstrating leadership and courage") was abortionist Adam Jacobs (below top right). Presenters were widow Jeanne Tiller (below left) and daughter Rebecca (below bottom right).


     Adam Jacobs (below top right). Jeanne Tiller (below left)
       and daughter Rebecca (below bottom right)

Read PRCH's glowing bio of Jacobs here. When Paul Hill was executed for murdering abortionist John Britton and bodyguard James Barrett in 2003, Jacobs, a death penalty opponent, made this 6 degrees of confusing statement to BMJ.com, given his "live"lihood:

Paul Hill clearly believed not only that abortion is equivalent to murder, but also that it is OK to kill someone who has taken a life. The second view is something that most civilized people would find deeply repugnant. It is regrettable that the American 'justice' system has found such a dramatic way to reinforce that view.
If you can decipher Jacobs' logic, get back to me.

PRCH's inspiring keynote speaker was Susan Wood, PhD, who famously quit the FDA when it delayed okaying the morning-after pill for sale over-the-counter.

Personhood Nevada plans for round #2

Despite legal opposition from pro-abortion groups, the Nevada Personhood Amendment petition drive is still alive.

Officials with the pro-life movement had previously launched the effort, but spokesperson Dr. Candy Best tells OneNewsNow that it came to a screeching halt when "big money" groups voiced opposition. "At the point that we put this forward, we were taken to task and sued by Planned Parenthood and the ACLU to enjoin us from moving forward in the petition process," Best explains.

Activity stopped as the case made its way to the state Supreme Court, where it languished without a decision until the time period granted for petitioning had passed. The Personhood spokesperson says that robbed Nevada voters of the chance to decide the issue. "...Without saying so officially, [but] by [not] passing down a ruling from the bench, we were denied our civil rights and due process," she laments.

But now, Personhood Nevada is preparing a new petition drive targeting the 2012 election, unless the ACLU and Planned Parenthood sue again.

"It was not something that's going to come easily to us because of the fact that we're dealing with the issues of life, generally speaking, and who has a right to it: life," Best adds.

The pro-life movement is trying to legally define that a person is a person at the biological beginning of life.

Controversial "Black and Unwanted" pro-life billboards cause stir in Arkansas

     Controversial "Black and Unwanted" pro-life billboards

Last week AR Right to Life joined forces with the Radiance Foundation, as has GA Right to Life, to erect 6 "Black and Unwanted" pro-life billboards in high traffic locations in the Little Rock area.

And just as in GA, the billboards are causing a stir, yeah. Here's a June 22 Fox16.com news report...



TooManyAborted.com reports

In 2008... the AR Dept. of Health report[ed]... 58% of all abortions occur among white women while 34% are among black women.5 These percentages are only fully understood when the total population is revealed: 75.6% of AR's population is white while only 15.8% is black.

The disparity is alarming as it exemplifies what is happening nationally, and what, historically has primarily been the target of the Birth Control/Population Control movement.

Yes, recall the Duggars are renting a house in Little Rock that is a historical landmark, previously owned by Brunhilde Kahlert Cornish, founder of the AR Eugenics Association, which was later renamed Planned Parenthood Association of AR.

Here's another news report, this one by todaystvh.com yesterday:

The billboards will remain up at least 1 month. I love that this concept is spreading. My only piece of constructive criticism would be that ARRTL should have a black spokesperson, as does GARTL.

NEWS SHORTS FOR WEDNESDAY

Planned Parenthood to offer "insemination services," marketing lesbians

Just spotted this announcement on Twitter by Planned Parenthood St. Louis Region:

"Announcing Fall 2010 Insemination Services" Pictured are two women holding each other while sitting ina field.

As far as I can tell - after checking PP Federation's site and then PP Golden Gate, which would seem the 1st logical PP to offer stud services - this is the only PP nationwide offering this service so far.

Lovely. PP now specializes in aborting natural pregnancies and inseminating unnatural pregnancies - breaking up natural families and bonding unnatural families.

Graphic Sex Ed Class Under Fire

Parents are outraged after young teenagers were instructed on graphic sexual acts during a Planned Parenthood sex education class at the local high school in Shenandoah, Iowa. “It was horribly inappropriate,” Colleen Dostal told Fox News Radio. “To do that in a mixed-gender classroom, — I truly believe it was inappropriate.” Dostal’s 14-year-old son was one of a handful of eighth graders in the class. The students, she said, were given instruction on how to perform female exams and the instructor used a 3-D, anatomically correct male sex organ to explain how to use a condom. But Dostal said she was most upset over the instructor simulating sexual acts using stuffed animals designed to resemble STD’s.

Abortion and Breast Cancer: What Feminist Lawyers Don't want you to know

The plan was originally exposed by Austin Ruse of the Catholic Family and Human Rights Institute, Washington D. C. When CRR staff contacted him and demanded that he not release the information, Ruse shared it with nationally syndicated columnist Maggie Gallagher, who released it nationwide. “We should take these people very seriously indeed,” Ruse said. “They are at the heart of the international abortion movement, with many connections to the United Nations.

Pregnancy counselling group launches life-saving project on London Underground

The Good Counsel Network, a London-based pregnancy counselling organisation, are planning to take out advertising on the London Underground. On their blog, they say:

We would like to increase our outreach to women in trouble in a pregnancy which maybe wasn’t planned or where they suddenly find themselves in crisis. Using the title Maria Stops Abortion, we plan to reach out to women who would otherwise only see adverts for the ‘help’ offered by abortion providers.

Obamacare: Sacrificing the Docs

In a one of oh so many mendacious maneuvers to help sell Obamacare, Congress segregated a law needed to keep Medicare docs from suffering a huge pay from the bill in chief, even though it clearly was germane to the legislation that centralized federal control over health care. The purpose for this dishonest maneuver was to cook the financial books, making the behemoth look less expensive overall by removing hundreds of millions in projected expenses over the next decade so the CBO could say, behind a barely contained eye roll, that the bill met fiscal muster.

In fairness, the supporters of this dishonest maneuver thought that the “doctor fix” would quickly pass on its own, since nobody wants to punish doctors who take Medicare. But this is Washington where any dysfunction is possible.

Study: Abortion More Than Triples Breast Cancer Risk Among Sri Lankans

The Coalition on Abortion/Breast Cancer notes a study in the journal, Cancer Epidemiology, reporting that Sri Lankan women with abortions more than tripled their breast cancer risk (3.42 odds ratio). Abortion was the most significant factor in the study. Researchers found a significantly reduced risk associated with prolonged duration of breastfeeding and a nearly tripled increased risk from exposure to passive smoking. The study entitled, "Prolonged breastfeeding reduces risk of breast cancer in Sri Lankan women: A case-control study," was led by Malintha De Silva and colleagues from the University of Colombo. [1]

Among women who breastfed between 12-23 months, researchers found a 66.3% risk reduction in comparison to those who had never breastfed and those who had breastfed between 0 and 11 months. The risk reduction climbed to 87.4% for the 24-35 months group and 94% for the 36-47 months group.

"Obviously, women who abort forfeit the protective effect of breastfeeding," said Karen Malec, president of the Coalition. "The loss of that protective effect is incurred in addition to the effect of abortion leaving the breasts with more places for cancers to start.

"According to the researchers, 'mammography is not widely available for routine screening' in Sri Lanka. Therefore, health professionals must emphasize disease prevention. It is criminal that the U.S. National Cancer Institute (NCI) has covered up this risk for over a half century. Uncle Sam is abusing women by concealing the risk."

The Sri Lankan study is the fourth epidemiological study in fourteen months to report an abortion-breast cancer link, including studies from the U.S, China and Turkey. [2-4] Louise Brinton, a NCI branch chief, served as co-author in the U.S. study in which she and her colleagues admitted that "...induced abortion and oral contraceptive use were associated with increased risk of breast cancer." The authors cited a statistically significant 40% increased risk. [4]

"It's becoming increasingly difficult for the NCI to keep its fingers and toes in the dike," said Malec, "especially since many researchers in other parts of the world do not depend on the agency for grants."

The Coalition on Abortion/Breast Cancer is an international women's organization founded to protect the health and save the lives of women by educating and providing information on abortion as a risk factor for breast cancer.

FDA Advisory Committee Unanimously Approves Controversial 'Emergency Contraceptive'

The Food and Drug Administration is one step closer to approving an 'emergency contraceptive' that life advocates say can cause an early abortion.

A federal advisory panel voted unanimously last week in favor of approving the drug Ulipristal – also called "ella" – for U.S. distribution. The FDA usually follows the panel's recommendations.

The debate is over how the drug operates. Unlike Plan B – the current "morning-after pill" on the market – ella contains a chemical similar to RU-486, the abortion pill.

Ella blocks progesterone – making the uterus hostile to the new human embryo if fertilization has taken place or starving the embryo if implantation has happened.

Cardinal Daniel DiNardo of the Galveston-Houston Archdiocese wrote a letter to the commissioner of the FDA, criticizing the marketing of the drug as merely a "contraceptive."

"FDA approval for that purpose would likely make the drug available for 'off-label' use simply as an abortion drug — including its use by unscrupulous men with the intent of causing an early abortion without a woman's knowledge or consent," he wrote. "Such abuses have already occurred in the case of RU-486, despite its warning labels and limited distribution."

Wendy Wright, president of Concerned Women for America, said women who are already pregnant could buy the drug and unknowingly abort the preborn child their carrying.

"The FDA is being asked to make it easily available," she told Fox News. "Women will buy the drug thinking that it is a morning-after pill when, in fact, it is an abortion pill."

No word yet when the FDA will make its final decision on making the drug available.

A false message to women worldwide

The recently concluded "Women Deliver" conference in Washington, DC, urged women to promote abortion and birth control internationally.

The conference was agenda-driven, according to Jenn Giroux, executive director of Human Life International-America, who says the agenda of the conference sponsor is to push abortion and contraception -- or as Women Deliver states it: "to achieve universal access to reproductive health."

Giroux tells OneNewsNow that that agenda has caused problems, rather than solving them -- and speaking as a registered nurse, she believes they need to repackage their message.

"Because they understand that it has now been revealed that the physical damage being done to women by the birth-control pill -- leading to more breast cancer, more cervical cancer, and more liver cancer, infertility, and other health-negative effects -- is going to impact what they have tried to falsely message for all these years," Giroux charges.

The pro-life spokeswoman explains it is false too because the push to reduce population has had negative repercussions.

"And what is amazing to me is that you look at countries...abroad right now that are giving incentives to women to have children," she points out. "The birth rate has fallen off so drastically...in France and Russia and [other] places that they can't even reproduce themselves. America's [average] family [size] has dropped drastically in size."

And that, she explains, reduces the available workforce, reduces tax dollars, and weakens the ability to support the aging part of the population. One result is that nations like France have imported labor from Muslim countries.
