Barack Obama and Planned Parenthood are Siamese twins that share one heart, cold and dark as it is. One cannot survive without the other.
Imagine the dire straits Planned Parenthood would find itself in today without Obama fending off its attackers these past three years. Planned Parenthood’s fortunes rest on Barack Obama. And vice versa. From the Boston Globe, March 27:
Democrats say Obama must win the women’s vote by a sizable margin, if he has any hope of serving a second term. He won women by 13 points over John McCain in 2008. But in 2010, when Republicans seized control of the House, Democrats lost support from women by 1 point. It was the first time in 37 years that the party did not carry women voters in a national election….
“It’s the ultimate battleground,’’ Lake said. “Independent women will be who determines this election.’’
To underscore the gravity of their plights, Obama has made a promotion video for Planned Parenthood Action Fund.
The first question that popped into my mind was whether it is legal for a sitting president to shoot an official (tagline at the end, “www.WHITEHOUSE.gov”) advocacy video for a political advocacy/fundraising group in the White House (Red Room – which looks pink – clever).
But I expect they dotted their i’s and crossed their t’s. It still smells, though. President Bush could never have gotten away with making an advocacy video for FRC Action from the Blue Room.
As for the fact that PP is the United States’ largest abortion provider, and that’s what’s really at stake here, Obama would only speak to that particular service in code, decrying those would deny women “decisions that are best made between a woman and her doctor.” About what else could that refer? Certainly not everyday gynecological needs. “We need to talk through the ramifications of your having a breast exam”? No.
But that’s what Obama moved on to give as examples, including “the woman with a new lease on life because a mammogram caught her cancer.” Wait, women can get mammograms at PP? Wrong. As Students for Life points out, President Obama apparently hasn’t gotten that memo. Although surely he has. Consider who undoubtedly wrote his script – PP. Sneaky.

… [I]t is not feminism to support abortion….
[T]o argue that women are unequal without the “right” to abortion is to believe that pregnancy is something that makes women less-than. But pregnancy is something that is both uniquely female and literally as natural as breathing.
To believe that abortion is necessary for women’s equality is to believe that women, without artificial intervention, really are less-than. That a woman, by herself, is a lesser human being.
And that is the essence of misogyny.

Today the liberal feminist movement celebrates ingesting megadoses of environmentally toxic, cancer causing, pheromone altering, libido killing, chemically modified, female steroids, yeah!
Matthew Hennessey could be making the same observation about hormonal birth control pills and emergency contraceptives as abortion. Just add levonorgestrel drospirenone, ethinyl estradiol, norgestrel (ingredients in Plan B, Next Choice, and/or basic BC pill), and ulipristal acetate (EllaOne) to his list of synthetic compounds:
After all, abortion is not organic…. It is a lot of things. Natural, it is not.
Yet, somehow the politics of this have gotten all turned around. The greenies are in league with the pro-abortion people.
The same ones who promote all-natural living – organic fruits, locally-grown vegetables, hormone-free milk, free-range chickens, solar panels, wind turbines, etc. – are usually the same ones who want to make sure that women everywhere have unlimited access to synthetic compounds – gemeprost, methotrexate, mifepristone, misoprostol, etc. – that cause abortions.
Then there’s the pro-life “claim” – found on virtually ever manufacturing label – that BC and EC kill babies.
Oh, it may be true according to modern linguistic jujitsu that they do not “terminate a pregnancy,” but the fact remains BC and EC can kill 5/9-day-old young humans who are still floating in the uterus. Show me the fine print that doesn’t admit it.
That said, BC and EC miss blocking more than their share. In fact, studies repeatedly show widespread EC use actually raises pregnancy rates. Here’s the latest, quoting The Daily Mail, March 25:
Whatever anyone thought about its potential efficacy in the past, the idea that the morning after pill protects young girls from unwanted pregnancy now lies in tatters. The medical profession’s ‘gold standard’ Cochrane Review says there is no evidence it does. Worse, health economists from the University of Nottingham have found that emergency contraception provided free to teenagers led to a rise in unwanted teen pregnancy. And it has contributed to dramatically rising sexually transmitted infections amongst teenagers.
Yes, this is certainly a day to celebrate, isn’t it?

Why is it the Senate cannot pass a budget? And why has it been going on for 1,064 days?!

[youtube]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TnbpWWYtPag[/youtube]The Republican Party is pejoratively considered the far right wing for two main reasons:
Because the majority of us are Christian conservative and because of our pro-life stance.
And I think it’s unwise of this movie to try to lump Republicans in with the far left, and the eugenics movement, and alienate the party that has been opposed to abortion.

UPDATE 3/28, 1:15p: Molotov has sent me his thoughts and given permission to post:
I’m sorry to hear that you didn’t love it. So far, roughly 90-95% of the pro-life leaders who’ve seen it have loved it.
If you’re going to write a critical review, keep in mind that “Gates of Hell” was designed to manufacture tension. It dramatically creates a crisis so disturbing that comfortable, apathetic moderates are forced to confront the injustice at hand, for better or for worse. Much like Jesus Christ, anyone who watches the film will love, hate or fear it, and that’s by design. Indifference is just not an option.
As MLK said, justice comes before peace!
3/27, 6:55p: The movie Gates of Hell has been controversial among pro-lifers since its trailer was posted almost a year ago. In February the film was released on DVD “in honor of black history month.”
Set in 2016, Gates of Hell is a fictional documentary that follows a band of black domestic terrorists known as the Zulu 9 who literally set their sites on abortionists and abortion workers after learning blacks have been purposefully targeted for abortion for generations….

Gates of Hell was written and directed by Molotov Mitchell, a gifted pro-life filmmaker who went terribly astray this time.
Things got personal when Mitchell took apart friend and site moderator Gerard Nadal for coming out against the film after watching the trailer. Mitchell mocked Gerard for basing his review on just the teaser, promising there was more to the movie.
There wasn’t. I really wanted to like this film but have watched it twice now and have been deeply disturbed each time. I’m a provocative pro-lifer who likes to push the envelope, but Gates of Hell goes too far.
The film is quite simply about black terrorists who murder any and all abortion workers they can find – an abortionist leaving his house, an abortionist sitting at an outdoor cafe, etc., etc.
The most disturbing scene is when the Zulu 9 burst into a Planned Parenthood, indiscriminately picking off staff in their offices. I could only think of Columbine.
Ryan Bomberger has written a review of Gates of Hell from a black perspective:
I actually had to hit pause several times throughout this obvious shockumentary, because I was repulsed by what I was seeing and so angry that this creation could even be considered “pro-life”. One of my colleagues, and pivotal figures in the fight against the epidemic of abortion in New York City, Dr. Gerard Nadal, was excoriated by Molotov for daring to react to the trailer. Nadal was attacked for somehow misinterpreting the contents of a trailer that accurately reflect the entire movie.
How would I describe the film in a single word? Detrimental.
The glorification of violence, as a means toward an end, makes the film’s primary message appalling. Molotov, starring in his own film as himself, was the only person in this story who was not a fictional character. He cannot claim a fictional nature for the film, but instead one of seeming advocacy with a deeply disturbing and highly suggestive solution to a cause.
Watching the entire movie not only reinforced my own negative reaction to the trailer but also strengthened the argument that the film does not consider the overall racism that it, too, conveys.
I get that Molotov was trying in the most attention-getting way possible to spotlight the atrocity of black abortion genocide. But that is not what people will be talking about.
Molotov owes Gerard an apology.
I give Gates of Hell one star, only for its display of Molotov’s unique story-telling talent. I look forward to the day Molotov channels his creative energies into a project of value to the movement. This one wasn’t.
American Life League will sponsor its 4th annual National Pro-life T-Shirt Week April 24-30. This is a great way for students in particular to promote the sanctity of life to their friends. ALL writes that the goal of NPLTW is to “increase awareness of the personhood of the child in the womb and the tragedy of abortion.”
ALL has all kinds of fun activities planned around NPLTW, including a photo scavenger hunt, video challenge, essay competition, and poster/design contest.
This year’s prizes will include a Kindle Fire and pro-life gear. I’m excited that ALL has asked me to be a video judge as well as co-sponsor!
If you have your own t-shirt, great. But if not ALL is offering them for only $8 plus S&H. Order yours now.
Join their Facebook group to help promote this event and get updates.
Get your pro-life friends together for a coordinated, unified effort, and order a bunch of shirts to make an even bigger statement at school. Step out and show pro-life pride. Get the conversation going. Show others you are a Pro-Life American!
