While I was on spring break, all kinds of things happened with the health care bill. Other pro-life bloggers have this covered, so I’ll just say that abortion funding is still in it and the deciding votes are still up for grabs. Let’s move on to some less publicized stories. ~Obama released the names of […]
Gallup has shown that the number of people who support abortion under any circimustances has consistently declined over time. In fact, the age generational difference between views on abortion has gradually been disappearing. Current polling suggests that the group that has the strongest support of abortion being illegal under any circumstances are those ages 18-29. […]
I am home for spring break and spending time with my family. The pro-life news of the day will resume on Monday, March 15. Have a great week!

It has been replaced by a new version of the bill with the words “reckless act of the woman” removed. The New York Times has a full write-up on the changed language. Here’s an […]
We have long known that most Americans reject federal funding of abortion. A study released by the Susan B. Anthony List today shows that this opposition is strong in the Congressional districts where it matters most.

Remember when Nebraska Senator Ben Nelson was the holdout vote for the Senate version of the healthcare reform bill? He opposed it on the basis of its funding for abortion, but when legislators offered a deal to reduce Nebraska’s Medicaid expenses, he conveniently caved.

Abortion advocates are angry about a bill, recently passed by the Utah state senate, that imposes penalties on people who perform abortions on themselves. (The law does not include abortions performed by physicians, so this is not a challenge to Roe v. Wade.) The criticism centers on the phrase “reckless act,” which they contend includes […]

As you’re probably aware, Chile just experienced a major earthquake. Fortunately, it has not caused nearly as much devestation as last month’s earthquake in Haiti. The Chilean government has not yet requested international aid. Still, we must take this seriously. 147 lives have already been lost, and if we do not act quickly to restore […]
