Pro-life and pro-family groups are setting other important issues aside to focus on toppling liberal plans to include abortion on steroids in a nationalized healthcare plan.
As Doug Johnson of National Right to Life has said repeatedly in recent days, this would be “the greatest expansion of abortion since Roe v. Wade.”
Pro-life leaders are planning an important, one-time-only, 70-minute, live webcast this Thursday, July 23, at 9p EST.
Go to StopTheAbortionMandate.com to register.
Participation is free. After registering you will be enabled to listen to the live webcast and submit questions.
According to David Bereit of 40 Days for Life, here is what at stake in the “abortion industry power-grab”:
- Forcing taxpayers to fund a huge abortion industry bailout – something the majority of Americans oppose and certainly cannot afford in these tough economic times
- Mandating that virtually every American be forced into a health plan that includes abortion coverage
- Requiring honorable medical providers to violate their consciences and commit abortions – or risk losing their jobs
Topics to be discussed include:
- The devastating implications of the proposed mandates – facts the abortion industry doesn’t want Americans to hear
- Why respected leaders, national organizations, and pro-life people are joining together in record numbers to challenge this power grab
- The exact action steps YOU can take to make a difference at this crucial moment
Many respected leaders will speak, including:
- David Bereit, 40 Days for Life
- Marjorie Dannenfelser, Susan B. Anthony List
- Kristen Day, Democrats for Life
- Dr. James Dobson, Focus on the Family
- Doug Johnson, National Right to Life Committee
- Dr. Richard Land, SBC Ethics & Religious Liberties Commission
- Carmen Pate, Point of View Radio Show
- Fr. Frank Pavone, Priests for Life
- Tony Perkins, Family Research Council
- Congressman Joe Pitts, U.S. House of Representatives
- Congressman Chris Smith, U.S. House of Representatives
- Wendy Wright, Concerned Women for America
- Dr. Charmaine Yoest, Americans United for Life

Dr. Dobson has done great work that has blessed many for many years. But now that he has admitted that he is breaking the oath he made invoking the name of God, in his own words “compromising” on abortion, regardless of whether it is “right or wrong,” (his own words) and yet still using the video of his pledge for fundraising, he is destroying his own credibility. The hypocrisy of this beloved Christian brother is heartbreaking and is detracting from our battle against infanticide.
When a major Christian leader is dishonest and fraudulently uses such a video of his pledge, which he admits in writing he no longer lives up to, but still plays it at the Focus welcome center, online and on the radio to solicit donations… this makes us all look bad. It misleads people and reflects terribly on all pro-life groups that associate with him.
Please pray for Dr. Dobson that he will repent of this ongoing fraud and either stop using the video of his oath that invokes God’s name… or even better that he will return to living according to that oath, namely that he will not compromise by supporting any candidate that supports abortion exceptions.
Abortion infests the plan in so many ways. It will be a mandated item in private insurance coverage.
It will be mandated that employers cover it. It is going to be “free”. It will be required that hospitals provide abortion and Planned Parenthood will be steered a lot of money.
Why is it that I can’t find any information on what is making them say such things? Where is the documentation that any of this is even happening? All I have been able to find are opinion blogs making assertions without backing them up.
Seriously, could someone post a link, or something?
Pro-life’s odd couple:
Doug Johnson of NRTL, defender of the ‘evil’ PBA Ban (Judge Roy Moore’s word) and, James Dobson, who said the PBA Ban did not the authority to save one life.
Who will speak for the elderly and chronically ill whose surgery or chemo or other care options are deemed “not cost effective”? Some here act as if the only think wrong with Nanny State administering and dictating our medical care is the abortion mandate. The whole bill’s foundation is elitist and statist; it rots- like a fish – from the head down. I just saw a bumper sticker with a skull and cross bones that says it all: “Obamacare: Grandma doesn’t really need that pacemaker.”
Another appropriate bumper sticker would be “Abortion is NOT healthcare!”
Brannon Howse: July 17
Topic: Is Focus on the Family’s New President Taking The Organization Postmodern and Lurching to the left? We knew something was not right at FOTF when in May of 2009, one of their spokespersons said that FOTF would not oppose any U.S. Supreme Court nominee over their sexual orientation. Is this the wimpy FOTF under president Jim Daly who wants to “dialogue” with people. Daly said Dobson was black and white but he is “more about having a conversation with people.” Daly does not even know America’s form of government as revealed when he called America a democracy in several interviews. Daly shocked many when he declared, “What we want to see are more families like Barack Obama’s.” Really? Daddy Barack said he did not want his children “punished” with an unwanted pregnancy. His administration is pushing the U.N. Convention on the Rights of the Child which will destroy parental authority. Daly said he is “not an ideologue” and that he wants to find a “kinder gentler way to approach this topic” of abortion. Daly is a wimp in my opinion and exactly what is wrong with most Christians, Churches and pro-family groups. Daly sounds a lot like Joel Osteen to me. Daly said that President Obama is “an incredibly engaging person, and he’s hip.” Tell me what makes him so hip Mr. Daly is it his pro-abortion agenda, his ant-Christian agenda, his same-sex marriage agenda, his pluralism, his hatred of America, the free-market and the traditional family? Daly says, “But we can respect what Obama does well. We can focus more on the positive. And I respect his family.” Daly wants to “meet on common ground” with pro-abortionists? What common ground would that be? He goes on to say in several interviews that he wants to “dialogue” with people of opposing views. Daily sounds like the Emergent Church leaders does he not? Daly was hand-picked by Dobson because he was a “go getter”. How about picking a guy with a backbone or who actually has some guts and is interested in defending a pro-family worldview from sound Biblical theology? An ideologue would have been nice; someone who see issues as black or white. I dare Daly to come on my program and have a “conversation”. I think we would find out he is an empty suit who is really nothing more than “a business guy” as he reportedly described himself to the Denver Post. The phone lines light up on this topic and the audience is not happy with the direction of Focus on the Family.

Carla, great!
The emphasis on the abortion issue wrt this insidious ‘health care’ legislation implies that if abortion coverage is removed, the bill is acceptable. The entire bill should die a premature death. It is dangerous to all, will result in rationing, and will hasten the deaths of many people, including perhaps my mother. The whole bill needs to be resisted with the fervor we are currently resisting the abortion aspect.
Dave, good point. If you read the webcast info, you’ll see the push is to stop nationalized healthcare altogether.
Also, there is a school of thought that if abortion is removed from the plan, the whole thing falls apart. Abortion is a cornerstone.
instead of covering abortion (which is WRONG to cover for so many reasons) why can’t they cover prenatal care for poor women? Abortions would drop by the 1000s if they could have the prenatal care they need.
Liz wrote: “instead of covering abortion (which is WRONG to cover for so many reasons) why can’t they cover prenatal care for poor women?”
THEY don’t cover anything. WE taxpayers do; and there are getting to be fewer and fewer of us actual tax payers.
Prenatal care for poor women could be covered by that archaic invention of God’s THE FATHER, THE DAD, THE SLAYER OF DRAGONS AND BREAD WINNER (even if the loaf he brings home is meager). But the Sexual Revolution chugs along and abortion is there primarily to enforce it. Sex out of wedlock is one of the biggest engines driving children either aborted or raised in poverty.
I doubt I’ll be able to tune in to the webcast. I hope there’ll be transcripts or audio files available when it’s over.
Jill, In my opinion, why not have some more people at the event such as, Gianna Jessen, Brandy Lozier, and yourself. RJ
see ya there Mrs. Stream! :)
BevC,
Hear, hear!
Angele,
Just you and me and 16,098 other people…..:)
The ‘smart’ one has been to all ’57’ states at least once.
The ‘smart’ one can’t seem to remember the exact hospital where he was born. If he would look at his long form birth certificate I bet it would say somewhere or it would give the name of the attending physician and the ‘smart’ one could track it down from there.
The ‘smart’ one reading from totus (teleprompter of the united states) introduced and thanked himself.
The ‘smart’ one cannot tell us when pre-natal humans get rights in ‘his’ view. The answer is above the ‘smart’ one’s pay grade. (Is he stupid or dishonest or both?)
The ‘smart’ one believes he can borrow his way out of debt and spend his way out of a recession.
The ‘smart’ one will not meddle in the affairs of a rogue state like Iran, but has no problem attempting to coerce a reliable ally and stable democracy like Israel.
The ‘smart’ one sides with the ousted president of Honduras who wants to re-write their constitution so he can stay in power and disses the other two thirds of the government who exercises their powers to get rid of the lawless presidente.
The ‘smart’ one declares the USA has the worlds largest muslim population and says America is NOT a ‘christian’ nation.
The ‘smart’ one is only a legend in his own mind and in the hearts of his obsequious, servile sycophant devotees.
NOT all Canadians, just like NOT all Americans, are enthused about the current resident of the white house. The opinion polls indicate that some of the fools who voted for hope and change are beginning to hear the ‘pop’ and are not only regrettin their poor judgement, but are ashamed that they elected a knave who was not qualified by experience or birth to lead this nation.
yor bro ken
This just in:On the 40th anniversary of the Apollo 11 moon landing, pbho, the ‘smart’ one, recalled his own childhood memories in Hawaii of NASA capsules splashing down in the Pacific.
(Fact check)
The ‘smart’ one actually lived in Indonesia as a child, from 1967 to 1971, with his mother and stepfather.
It was not until Obama turned 10 and relcocated to Honolulu, Hawaii to live with his grandfather and grandmother, Stanley and Madelyn Dunham.
Despite several statements made by the president about his childhood years in Jakarta, the ‘smart’ ones own White House biography begins with his alleged birth in Hawaii Aug. 4, 1961, and makes no mention of Indonesia.
Apollo 11 splashdown was 1,440 nautical miles east of Wake Island and 210 nautical miles south of Johnston Atoll on July 24, 1969 – just before Obama’s eighth birthday.
The ‘smart’ one has a fuzzy maleable memory that morphs to produce whatever scenario is most suitable for the moment.

Listening
The “smart one?” Jill Stanek and all other pro-lifers, are the only SMART ONE’S! JILL, YOU SHOULD RUN FOR PUBLIC OFFICE… WE’D SUPPORT YOU!
Awesome webcast tonight!! Amazing speakers calling us all to ACTION!!
God bless us every one, especially the prolife Democrats!!
RJ – aw, thanks… been there, done that… I’m happy where I’m at. :)
It was indeed a great webcast. I’ve already emailed my congresspersons. It was as easy as the click of a button with the tools provided by StopTheAbortionMandate.com. Will post more tomorrow.
Jill,
I am so excited!!
I think the 34,000+ registered people that heard the webcast is a little low…my whole family(2 adults + 3 kids) was listening to the webcast and we’re just counted as 1 registrant.
Anyhoo…I would agree the webcast was very exciting and very informative. We were all huddled in one room listening intently to what was being said. The scene kinda reminds me of the WW II movies where you have the “resistance” fighters listening in the dark to one radio. The only source of true info.
But, in a sense, I think we truly are the “resistance” in this battle for life.
It’s time to move, folks. Time to rock ‘n roll!!!
“HATE BILL”-OBSESSED CONGRESS
If “hate bill”-obsessed Congress [and Obama] can’t protect Christians from “gays” as much as it wants to protect “gays” from Christians, will Congress be surprised if it can’t protect itself from most everyone?
If “hate bills” are forced on captive Americans, they’ll still find ways to sneakily continue to “plant” Biblical messages everywhere. By doing so they’ll hasten God’s judgment on their oppressors as revealed in Proverbs 19:1.
(See related web items including “David Letterman’s Hate, Etc.,” “Separation of Raunch and State,” “Michael the Narc-Angel,” “Obama Avoids Bible Verses,” and “Tribulation Index becomes Rapture Index.”)
Since Congress can’t seem to legislate “morality,” it’s making up for it by legislating “immorality”!
