Election Could Decide Fate of Abortion for 40 More Years
While the economy dominates the election, there is much at stake for unborn children and those who want to ensure they are protected by law from the violence of abortion.

Next January, the United States marks 40 years of virtually unlimited abortion under Roe v. Wade and more than 55 million unborn babies have lost their lives in this national travesty. The next president will have an opportunity during the four-year term to leave an indelible mark on the nation s high court. http://www.lifenews.com/2012/10/29/election-could-decide-fate-of-abortion-for-40-more-years/

Catholics United Attacks the Church on the HHS Mandate
When the Catholic Bishops called for a nationwide protest against the HHS mandate they fundamentally changed the topography of Catholic outreach in 2012. The battle over the Catholic vote was moved closer to the parish, not just its parking lots, but the pulpit itself.

In the last three presidential elections, bishops, priests and deacons were accused of partisanship when they spoke on opposition to abortion or the defense of true marriage anmd opposition to the counterfeit notion of same-sex marriage . Archbishop Chaput, for example, while in Denver had to pay $45,000 to defend himself against an accusation made to the IRS by a Catholic group supporting abortion. http://www.lifenews.com/2012/10/28/catholics-united-attacks-the-church-on-the-hhs-mandate/

We Don t Have to Call President Obama Names to Oppose Him
On Tuesday, I sent a tweet that received more angry responses than any tweet I ve ever sent before. What did I say that was so controversial? The day after the final presidential debate, reacting to dozens of annoying comments on Facebook and Twitter, I had the gall to say this:

I received 16 responses, and I have a few thoughts about them. I m going to do those tweeters a favor and not post their screen names. I m not even going to post every response because a lot of them overlapped. Here are a few highlights though: http://www.lifenews.com/2012/10/28/we-dont-have-to-call-president-obama-names-to-oppose-him/

Planned Parenthood s Taxpayer Funding Subsidizes Its Abortions
No federal funds pay for abortion, is Planned Parenthood s favored response whenever taxpayer funding for the nation s largest abortion provider is questioned. But even in spite of funding restrictions such as the Hyde Amendment, which prohibits Medicaid funds from being used directly for abortion (a restriction which Planned Parenthood unequivocally states it strongly opposes [i]), Planned Parenthood s taxpayer funding subsidizes its abortion practice.

Federal law, even before Roe v. Wade, has been concerned about abortion providers like Planned Parenthood misusing family planning funds to support their abortion businesses. http://www.lifenews.com/2012/10/28/planned-parenthoods-taxpayer-funding-subsidizes-its-abortions/

Abortion Clinic Staffers Try to Disrupt 40 Days for Life
As we head into the final stretch of the campaign, we are starting to see abortion workers give up on their stereotypes of YOU.

Weeks into the campaign, all the labels are finally set aside. The workers begin to question what they are doing and why it is wrong. This has already led to three workers having a change of heart during this campaign! http://www.lifenews.com/2012/10/28/abortion-clinic-staffers-try-to-disrupt-40-days-for-life/

Like Alfred Kinsey, Obama HHS Grooming Children for Sex
My dear friend and colleague Dr. Judith Reisman, a visiting law professor at Liberty University School of Law, recently guest lectured during Sexual Behavior and the Law, a course I teach. Dr. Reisman s lecture was filmed by CSPAN and will be airing soon.

In past years, Dr. Reisman has served as scientific consultant to four U.S. Department of Justice administrations, the U.S. Department of Education and the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services (HHS). She is a world renowned expert on the discredited research of bug doctor turned sexologist, Alfred Kinsey. http://www.lifenews.com/2012/10/28/like-alfred-kinsey-obama-hhs-grooming-children-for-sex/

Abortion Clinic Administrator Admits Ignoring Statutory Rape
The fact that abortion clinic staff routinely protect statutory rapists is not a new revelation, especially to the pro-life movement. Life Dynamics exposed this years ago, and Live Action followed that up with video proof from Planned Parenthood clinics in six states. Yet, I was still surprised to read an interview with a man calling himself George who runs the administrative end of an abortion clinic in New York blatantly admit that he ignores statutory rape.

He was doing an Ask Me Anything interview on Reddit.com, a news aggregation website. (I m not recommending Reddit to anybody because of some of the content that routinely shows up.) During an AMA, any Reddit user can ask questions, and the person doing the AMA can stay as long as he or she wants, answering as many questions as they want. http://www.lifenews.com/2012/10/28/abortion-clinic-administrator-admits-ignoring-statutory-rape/

California Pro-Life Voters Should Support Proposition 32
Too few realize that the abortion industry, particularly here in California is actually a government subsidized industry. http://www.lifenews.com/2012/10/28/california-pro-life-voters-should-support-proposition-32/


Woman Conceived in Rape: Stop Attacking Richard Mourdock
Monica Kelsey of Woodburn, Indiana, found out two years ago she was conceived in rape. Monica calls on Joe Donnelly and his friends to immediately remove a $1+ million ad buy from the airwaves that exploits rape for political gain. http://www.lifenews.com/2012/10/28/woman-conceived-in-rape-stop-attacking-richard-mourdock/

Massachusetts: Opposing Question 2 a Matter of Life and Death
Contrary to all the media reports, political ads, bloggers and mailers, this year s election deals with more than the presidential race. http://www.lifenews.com/2012/10/28/massachusetts-opposing-question-2-a-matter-of-life-and-death/

Parents Oppose NYC CATCH Program, Plan B to Teens Without Consent
A new poll has found that 53 percent of New York City parents oppose the controversial new CATCH program recently instated in 13 NYC public schools. http://www.lifenews.com/2012/10/28/parents-oppose-nyc-catch-program-plan-b-to-teens-without-consent/
