- ProLifeBlogs posts a C-FAM article describing abortion proponents’ defeat at the United Nations Rio+20 Conference on Sustainable Development last week:
Along with the Holy See, Nicaragua, Chile, Russia, Honduras, Syria, the Dominican Republic, Costa Rica and Egypt all rejected the introduction of “reproductive rights” into the Rio +20 outcome document. - At LifeNews, Michael New examines the progress of the pro-life movement in the 20 years since the Planned Parenthood vs. Casey decision.
- Another reason not to socialize medicine: Big Blue Wave reports on UK infant Leon Gough (pictured left), who may have permanent brain damage because his critical brain surgery was canceled due to a doctors’ strike.
- Coming Home describes the reasons for the Catholic Church’s Fortnight for Freedom, a time of prayer for our country:
… [T]he Federal Government has sought to attack the Catholic Church over an issue that is central to her identity and mission, the teaching that all human life is made in the image and likeness of God from the moment of fertilization and is to be respected as such until natural death.Our loss of freedom is centered on the mandate by the Federal Government that we pay not only for birth control pills, some of which are known abortifacients, but that we pay for sterilizations and known abortifacient morning-after pills such as RU-486 and Ella.
- Live Action responds to the liberal media firestorm which erupted when Fox’s Bill O’Reilly asked whether the US had become China in light of LA’s sex-selective abortion sting.
- The Leading Edge exposes the reasons why a proposed New Zealand law to ban child abusers from procreating may initially sound like a good idea, but really isn’t.

I read of a bizarre case of a woman who had served 5 years in prison for killing her child. She was in court because she had attempted to kill another of her children. Doctors who examined her said she had a strange compulsion to have babies — with the intention of killing them! The judge offered to shave a few years off her sentence if she underwent a tubal ligation. “She has no further need of children,” he noted dryly.
Two unlikely bedfellows — the Roman Catholic Church and the National Organization for Women — protested against the judge making sterilization part of a plea bargain.
Under liveactions segment it should be “firestorm” (?).
That poor child in UK :(
@Curtis: I don’t find it interesting. I find it recycled and dull. I’ve heard the “Misogyny!” lay from fake feminists like you before and it won’t wash. And, as a woman, let me just say I think it’s pretty patronizing for you to come along and mansplain to a movement composed mostly of women about how we don’t really know what our rights are and we’re not really liberated unless we can kill our children. Of all the anti-feminist BS that the abortion apology movement spouts, this one has got to be the most teeth gratingly common.
In sum, no. And lots of it.
Alice: Mansplain!!! LOL all day!!
Liberation thru the killing of our children!!!! Like that will ever make sense.
Alice, no one handles the idiots better than you. Keep up the good work! :)

(Denise) Should people who want abortion criticized be so quick to recoil from the idea of misogyny? Misogyny has a rather distinguished history. Schopenhour and Strindberg are famous misogynists — and very accomplished people.
