  • Planned Parenthood is using Obamacare to expand its outreach into the Hispanic community:

    Outreach efforts will particularly target Hispanic women, 38 percent of whom lack insurance coverage in Florida, according to a 2009 study by the Kaiser Family Foundation. Nearly 20 percent haven’t been screened for cervical cancer in the past three years, and nearly one-third haven’t had a mammogram in the past two years, according to Planned Parenthood.

    Except Planned Parenthood doesn’t do mammograms.

  • Is this an AP story or an editorial by Will Weissert on Gov. Rick Perry’s call for a second special session to pass a Texas bill to ban abortions after 20 weeks and hold abortion clinics to higher standards?

    It sought a statewide ban on abortions after 20 weeks of pregnancy, the point at which anti-abortion activists claim a fetus can feel pain — despite a lack of scientific evidence to support that.

    Because I’m sure Weissert carefully reviewed the scientific evidence.

  • I’m hoping Newsbusters’ Matthew Balan will do a comparison between the March for Life coverage and the coverage of Wendy Davis on the nightly newscasts. I’m guessing they spent more time covering a woman standing for 10 hours than hundreds of thousands of pro-lifers marching in D.C. He notes how the morning shows gushed over her filibuster in support of late-term abortions.
  • Charles Cooke doesn’t #StandwithWendy:

    But dress it up as they might, the truth remained ghastly: What Wendy and her team of protesters were trying to do was block a bill that would have made it illegal to deliberately kill an unborn child after 20 weeks of pregnancy. And that is a disgrace….

    As a rule, people winning wider political battles do not invade their legislatures and scream. On Tuesday night, demonstrating a combination of genuine media savvy and animalistic frustration at not getting their own way, the diehards in the crowd shouted loudly enough to kill a bill that the majority wants. They will not prevail for long.

  • Abortionist and convicted murderer Kermit Gosnell has refused a plea deal for federal drug charges.:

    Federal prosecutors say Gosnell flooded Philadelphia streets with more than 700,000 oxycodone or OxyContin pills by selling prescriptions to addicts, dealers and others who lined up at the clinic.
