• A student at Harvard shares her abortion experience in the Harvard Crimson:

Religious and secular providers alike often talk about their work as a calling, echoing the language that ministers’ use to describe their work in service to the holy.

Politico’s Keach Hagey has predicted Planned Parenthood’s successful ambush of Susan G. Komen for the Cure last week will “likely to go down as a textbook case of the political power of social media.” She’s right, and pro-lifers need to learn from it.
