“The Holocaust was probably less than 3% of Germany’s budget” and other responses to Planned Parenthood distortions

By homerj1 on  From 4simpsons.wordpress.com
Much has been made of Planned Parenthood’s marketing spin about “only” 3% of their services being abortions.  This is one of their lead arguments and it has been quickly swallowed and advanced by their supporters.  It is part of their effective campaign to conflate abortions (which are increasingly unpopular — especially with young people) with birth control (which most people reflexively support).  Yes, it is deceptive, but remember that Satan is evil, not stupid.  They could separate the...Read Full Story

Editor’s note: Mark Osler, a highbrow of law during a University of St. Thomas Law School in Minnesota, is a former sovereign prosecutor and a author of “Jesus on Death Row,” a book about collateral punishment. (CNN) — Thirty-nine years ago, Roe v. Wade was decided.

The Susan G. Komen Foundation , the nation’s largest breast cancer organization,  has decided to withdraw its $690,000 in charity to Planned Parenthood.  The Komen Foundation claims that it made the move not for political reasons but to follow its governing policy not to give to groups that are under investigation.

Roe v. Wade turns 39, amid waning abortion access

By SQPNTK on  From stuffqueerpeopleneedtoknow.wordpress.com
After years of litigation in the Roe v. Wade case, the  U.S. Supreme Court ruled 7-2 in favor of Roe , legalizing abortion 39 years ago today. The court extended the right to privacy clause in the 14th Amendment  to a person’s choice to have an abortion; however, that right must be balanced with the state’s interest to protect prenatal life and the mother’s health. A person may chose to have an abortion until the fetus is viable or “potentially able to live outside the mother’s womb...Read Full Story
