Wendy Davis, the Texas politician best known for wearing pink shoes while fighting for the right to kill five-month-old fetuses, is expected to run for governor of Texas. Abortion advocate and Democratic consultant Jason Stanford has an opinion column in Politico that desperately seeks to convince people that the Davis campaign is not doomed: In […]
Yesterday, an article by SPL member Sarah Terzo appeared on Live Action News, entitled “Abortion clinic counseling: rhetoric vs. reality.” In it, she describes insider accounts of supposedly “non-directive” counseling at abortion facilities that is anything but. The “counselors” emphasize the negative aspects of parenthood, evade questions about prenatal development, and make their sale. This […]
[Today’s guest post by Frank Ludwig is part of our paid blogging program.] In ancient Rome it was customary to present a newborn child to the family patriarch who would decide whether the infant would live or die. Today this right is claimed by the mothers. While the majority of even late-term abortion campaigners agree […]
Dr. Benjamin’s office, via AbortionDocs.org Recently, as I was doing some pro-life research, an ad came up for an abortion business in south Florida. I clicked it, not only because I enjoy costing them money, but also because you can find some incredible things on abortion websites. But what I came across on Dr. Michael […]
Average “pro-choice” people in America are actually quite moderate. They support a ban on abortions after the first trimester. They support informed consent and waiting periods. And they do not join a mob at the state capital to spit on pro-lifers and chant “Hail, Satan.” This is not a post about average pro-choicers. This is […]

The bill is a response to the horrific testimony of ex-employees of abortionist Douglas Karpen, also known as the “Texas Gosnell.” Photo of Texas pro-life […]
The abortion lobby is has found its latest poster child: a Salvadoran woman, known only as Beatriz, who allegedly needed an abortion to save her life. The reality, as usual, is more complicated. El Salvador protects unborn life, and recognizes the lives of mothers as well. Balancing these concerns, El Salvador has legal abortion in […]
[This post is reprinted with permission from Difficult Run.] Aside from wishing that people would simply not talk about Kermit Gosnell at all, pro-choice groups in American politics would really like everyone to understand that Kermit Gosnell was a horrific aberration. As a group, the pro-choice movement tends to circle the wagon around late-term abortionists and […]
In response to the Gosnell trial, some pro-choicers are claiming this is what happens when we restrict access to abortion. They say Gosnell exemplifies exactly why we must fight to protect abortion rights. For example, here’s NARAL’s statement on the subject: Kermit Gosnell’s actions were reprehensible, illegal and reminiscent of back-alley abortions from the days […]
Live Action just released their latest undercover video from a Women’s Health Center in the Bronx. In it, a woman 23 weeks pregnant questions Health Center employees about what would happen should her child be born alive. The response is chilling. One employee tells the pregnant woman that a born-alive infant would be killed with […]
