Women Do Not Identify With Extremist Pro-Abortion Movement
/2 Comments/in Uncategorized /by Kelsey Hazzard[Today’s piece was co-authored by Secular Pro-Life president Kelsey Hazzard and Americans United for Life senior counsel William Saunders. It originally appeared in LifeNews.] Abortion advocacy groups refer to themselves as “women’s groups.” They claim that pro-lifers are waging a “war on women.” And the media parrots them at every turn. Under these circumstances, pro-life […]
Mourning pro-choice leaders
/4 Comments/in Uncategorized /by Kelsey HazzardWhen abortion advocates die, how should we respond? It’s a timely question. On Monday, Sen. Lautenberg (D-NJ) died of natural causes at the age of 89. He accomplished many things in his decades as an elected official, but in pro-life circles, he’ll be remembered for his belief that defenders of unborn human life “don’t deserve […]
Let the bickering begin.
/32 Comments/in Uncategorized /by adminI’m pro-life. I get annoyed when people call me “anti-choice,” because I am not anti-choices in a general way.

/0 Comments/in Uncategorized /by Kelsey HazzardThe abortion industry has really been on the run lately. Gosnell was just the start. Then came the death of Jennifer Morbelli at the hands of late-term abortionist Leroy Carhart. Then came Douglas Karpen, the “Texas Gosnell,” under investigation for killing newborn abortion survivors. Then came Associates in OB/GYN Care, which killed 38-year-old Maria Santiago […]
Condoms and Caution
/6 Comments/in Uncategorized /by Kelsey HazzardCNN reports that condom company Sir Richard’s has adopted the charitable strategy of TOMS Shoes: buy one, and one will be donated to a developing country. They’re starting with Haiti, where HIV has spiked in the years since a devastating earthquake overwhelmed its healthcare system. It’s a clever idea, and there’s no doubt that condoms […]

The protest will be held outside Chicago Hilton & Towers, 720 S. Michigan Avenue, where Obama and Pelosi […]
Weekend update
