Randall+Terry+Howard+Dean+Joins+Rep+Jim+Moran+pxPyJSHQiEjx

Last weekend we focused on abortion proponents. This week we analyze ourselves. This weekend’s question comes again from good friend Josh Brahm, Director of Education and Public Relations, Right to Life of Central California:

What are the most frustrating or annoying things that pro-life people do that shuts down good dialogue? Stories are welcome.

Very important celebs urge Obama FORWARD on “reproductive rights”

2013-05-25_0559Standing in the way of access to emergency contraception? Seriously, Mr. President? What’s up with that? You gotta be kidding me.

That needs a hashtag.

Mr. President, we have drawn the line against these relentless assaults against reproductive rights. We need Congress to act now to stop the attacks and protect our rights and our health.

We need you take a stand on this, too.

  • John Londregan on the “birther” myth:

    It is past time we abandoned the “birther” myth that we are transformed magically through the process of birth from being tumorous growths within our mothers into fully human infants.

Pro-life vid of day: Megyn Kelly excoriates Gosnell attorney

by Laura Loo

Megyn Kelly grew heated during a segment on Wednesday afternoon when she interviewed Jack McMahon, the attorney for Kermit Gosnell, the abortion doctor convicted of murdering babies who were born alive following botched abortions. As McMahon denied many aspects of the case, Kelly expressed disgust at McMahon’s characterization of Gosnell as a “dream client” and “complete gentleman.”

Kelly responded to McMahon’s glowing review, saying, “Jack, I started off by saying we don’t tar the lawyers with the sins of clients, and that’s true. But listening to you, you sound like a guy who is suffering from Stockholm Syndrome. Because you seem to believe this is a swell man — notwithstanding the fact that he murdered little babies! … How do you come out and defend him now?”

Lopez: The soul of our nation depends on ability to “nourish life”

Kathryn_Jean_Lopez_by_Gage_SkidmoreThe frightened teenage girl. The single inner-city mom who has made some bad choices and doesn’t quite know what she can do. The 20-something on a career track whose boyfriend is not up to the task of fatherhood. The busy young couple that determines it is not the right time. These are all real scenarios, involving real fears, influenced deeply by a culture that pretends abortion is a quick fix, a solution to a problem.

The health of not just our citizens but our national soul demands that we do a better job, that we work hard to foster and nourish life, both in the womb and outside of it. It’s the only way to ensure a society that lives up to the ideals it was founded upon….
