Congress to Investigate Planned Parenthood Abortion Business
The Government Accountability Office’s (GAO), a Congressional agency, has indicated it will conduct an investigation of the Planned Parenthood abortion, business, which was recently busted for millions of dollars of Medicaid fraud in Texas.
The abortion giant has engaged in at least $12.5 million in fraud over multiple states — that has become public knowledge so far. http://www.lifenews.com/2013/08/06/congress-to-investigate-planned-parenthood-abortion-business-2/
Pro-Life March Will Challenge Mainstream Media to Drop the Abortion Bias
“It’s too uncomfortable for the public.” This is the mainstream media’s collective excuse for not broadcasting major stories related to abortion. It took months for the Gosnell trial to be acknowledged, and thereafter scantly covered in comparison to comparable scandals, by networks like ABC.
During debates over the hotly contested pro-life omnibus bill in Texas this season, networks chose to ignore the issue and talk about Wendy Davis’s pink running shoes instead. Rampant maternal deaths and botched abortions at innumerable abortion facilities across the nation, like LeRoy Carhart’s and Virginia’s Nova Women’s Healthcare, are blatantly ignored. “Because it’s too uncomfortable.” http://www.lifenews.com/2013/08/06/pro-life-march-will-challenge-mainstream-media-to-drop-the-abortion-bias/
Chinese Woman Kidnapped and Forced Have Abortion at Seven Months
Although some questionable news reports claim China is reforming its one-child, forced abortion policy, women continue to be forced to have abortions.
Gong Qifeng was kidnapped and forced at seven months of pregnancy to have an abortion, according to new news reports, and she may have developed a mental disorder as a result of the trauma associated with it. The forced abortion occurred in Lianyuan City in central China’s Hunan Province. http://www.lifenews.com/2013/08/06/chinese-woman-kidnapped-and-forced-have-abortion-at-seven-months/

Wendy Davis Has No Clue What Happened at Kermit Gosnell’s Abortion Clinic
Wendy Davis is now the face of the pro-abortion movement but they may want to consider getting a new national spokeswoman since she clearly has no idea what she’s talking about when it comes to abortion.
Davis yesterday admitted she doesn’t know much about the biggest abortion case in recent history — the conviction of Kermit Gosnell for killing babies in brutal abortion-infanticide procedures. http://www.lifenews.com/2013/08/06/wendy-davis-has-no-clue-what-happened-at-kermit-gosnells-abortion-clinic/

Man Tries to Sell His Girlfriend’s Asthmatic Baby for $100 on CraigsList
Years ago, pro-life people passed around a popular flier that asked the rhetorical question: How much is a human life worth? The answer, of course, is that one can’t affix a price on the value of the life of a human being.
But one man, who was caught attempting to sell his lover’s baby on CraigsList, thinks the price of the life of a child should be about a hundred bucks. Worse, the baby suffers from asthama and that was part of the reason he desired to sell her. http://www.lifenews.com/2013/08/06/man-tries-to-sell-his-lovers-asthmatic-baby-for-100-on-craigslist/
BroChoice: Activist Says Oregon Best State to Have Sex In Because It’s Pro-Abortion
he whole “BroChoice” campaign — and the notion that supporting abortion is a good thing for men to do because it allows them to get out of the responsibility of becoming a parent by pressuring their partner to have an abortion– continues to expand.
Rollie Williams, who calls himself a comedian, writer, and biochemist on the website Upworthy, says Oregon is the best state in the nation to have sex in because it’s laws are the most pro-abortion. That’s what he says in a piece titled, “Why Oregon Just Became The Best State To Have Sex In” under the headline “Women.” http://www.lifenews.com/2013/08/06/brochoice-activist-says-oregon-best-state-to-have-sex-in-because-its-pro-abortion/
Tweet Calling Wendy Davis “Abortion Barbie” Has Twitter All Abuzz
Conservative activist Erick Erickson has Twitter abuzz this afternoon.
After Texas abortion advocate Wendy Davis was exposed as not knowing the details of the Kermit Gosnell case, and after she said women were essentially stupid and “didn’t understand abortion” if they opposed banning late-term abortions, Erickson pulled out a label for Davis. http://www.lifenews.com/2013/08/06/tweet-calling-wendy-davis-abortion-barbie-has-twitter-all-abuzz/
Women’s Medical Group Bans Pro-Life Physicians From Giving Presentations
I am in the middle of reading Free Speech for Me– But Not for Thee: How the American Left and Right Relentlessly Censor Each Other, by the wonderful journalist and First Amendment champion Nat Hentoff (who happens to be a pro-life atheist as well). The book was first published two decades ago. Sadly, it remains as timely as ever. http://www.lifenews.com/2013/08/06/womens-medical-group-bans-pro-life-physicians-from-giving-presentations/

The Guttmacher Institute (GI) just released a study entitled, “How Far Did US Women Travel for Abortions in 2008?” by Rachel Jones and Jenna Jerman. This study indicates that 71 percent of patients traveled fewer than 25 miles and 85 percent traveled fewer than 50 miles to obtain an abortion. http://www.lifenews.com/2013/08/06/study-distance-to-get-an-abortion-shorter-than-distance-to-get-to-work/

New York Times Falsely Claims Fetal Pain is a Fake Medical Theory
In his August 2 article, Theory On Pain Is Driving Rules For Abortion, New York Times’s Erik Eckholm set about to critique how the “theory” of fetal pain is driving a push by pro-lifers for state laws tightening up abortion restrictions. Yet, in trying to convince readers that “fetal pain” is a fringe medical theory, he failed to cite any mainstream medical journal that explicitly rules out the probability that unborn children feel pain in the womb. http://www.lifenews.com/2013/08/06/new-york-times-falsely-claims-fetal-pain-is-a-fake-medical-theory/
When a Mother and Unborn Baby Tragically Die, New York Times Still Uses “Fetus”
The term fetus is Latin for “young one” and, in and of itself, is not an offensive term when it comes to acknowledging the humanity of the unborn child before birth. But the media and abortion backers often employ the word as opposed to terms like “unborn child” or “baby” to describe human beings before birth in order to remove their humanity and lessen their moral standing. http://www.lifenews.com/2013/08/06/when-a-mother-and-unborn-baby-tragically-die-new-york-times-still-uses-fetus/

Most Canadian Doctors Would Not Kill Patients in Assisted Suicides
Canada faces an assisted suicide/euthanasia legalization crisis, with lawsuits, advocacy for legalization, and Quebec poised to pass a law that not only legalizes wide-open euthanasia, but requires doctors to do the killing when the killing is going to be done. http://www.lifenews.com/2013/08/06/most-canadian-doctors-would-not-kill-patients-in-assisted-suicides/
