On Dalliances With The Devil...

It seems that the White House is now dictating what Catholic Doctrine really means…and Cardinal Dolan isn’t liking it:

The White House seems to think we bishops simply do not know or understand Catholic teaching and so, taking a cue from its own definition of religious freedom, now has nominated its own handpicked official Catholic teachers.

Welcome to the almighty church of Obama… Mr. Hussein, presiding.

They told the Church what to do in Maoist China… Communist Russia, Cuba… and even killed those who wouldn’t comply and staffed churches with their ‘state approved’ clergy. Obama is a Marxist. That’s what he does. What kills me is that the liberal Catholic priests and bishops actually SUPPORTED Obama, being the useful idiots that they are, even though it was widely known that Obama would be the most pro-abortion president–ever, and that he voted THREE TIMES AGAINST the born-alive protection act. But they thought their dalliance with the devil would be worth it if they could attain their unattainable ‘social justice’ nirvana fix here on earth. The same folks who brought you “liberation theology” are the same folks who have run our seminaries for too long now; the same element of folks who tolerated pedophiles in the priesthood; the same folks who not only turned a blind-eye to Marxism but encouraged it.

Even given the above, the Catholic church acts surprised–shocked–I say– when the openly Marxist President Obama starts telling them how to run things. This is a direct result of the Catholic Church worrying too much about establishing a non-attainable ‘heaven on earth’ via ‘social justice;’ via their support of Obamacare and other neo-socialist endeavors, and not enough about what was and should continue to be their true mission– the salvation of and preparation of souls for eternal life with Christ in Heaven.

I have had contact with some ‘priests’ who during the 2008 elections knew of Obama’s pro-infanticide predilections, but chose to support him anyway because of the ‘greater good’ that would supposedly result from his proposed social programs.

It was regrettably the ‘useful-idiot’ Catholic vote that helped Barack Hussein Obama first achieve presidential power.

As a Catholic, it will be a sad day, indeed, should the Catholic vote allow Obama a second term. It will not be a day that I left the Catholic church; rather, it will be a day that the Catholic Church left me.

Obama Hearts Dead Babies.

The title of this post may sound like so much hyperbole, but what other conclusion can one come to?

The American Principles Project (APP) Wednesday criticized the Obama administration for allowing the elimination of $600 million for Community Health Centers while protecting funding for Planned Parenthood as part of last week’s budget deal agreed to by Congress and the White House.

Touting Planned Parenthood as a key women’s health-care provider, Democrats held firm to their promise not to allow cuts to the nation’s largest abortion provider. Community Health Centers, which do not perform abortions, provide health services to the needy — including mammograms and pre- and post-natal care.

According to the American Principles Project last year Community Health Centers performed 320,000 mammograms while Planned Parenthood did none.

Unlike the blatant lie that Planned Parenthood president Cecele Richards told, Planned Parenthood performs no mammograms. Aside from a few ancillary condoms given out, abortion is, by and large, Planned Parenthood’s Business.

Remember, as an Illinois legislator, Obama voted three times AGAINST the Born Alive Protection Act. In other words, Barack Hussein Obama was quite OK letting a live-aborted baby perish on a gurney or in a trash can, rather than offer it life support.

Obama, beyond a shadow of a doubt, is the most pro-abortion, pro-dead-baby President we have ever had. Period.

His latest act of fealty toward the nation’s most prodigious killer of developing human beings, ostensibly in the name of ‘women’s health,’ to the detriment of organizations that actually provide services geared toward women’s health, is added testament to Obama’s ghoulish psyche.

What Hath Roe v. Wade Wrought?

A legacy of over 50 million lives, snuffed before a breath could be taken.. and sometimes after a breath was taken:
Johnson learned last week that Philadelphia prosecutors believe Gosnell frequently delivered late-term babies alive at his clinic, then severed their spines with scissors, and often stored the fetal bodies — along with staff lunches — in refrigerators at the squalid facility. Tiny baby feet, prosecutors said, were discovered in specimen jars, lined up in a macabre collection.

"Did he do that to mine? Did he stab him in the neck?" Johnson asked at her North Philadelphia home. "Because I was out of it. I don't know what he did to my baby."

Gosnell was charged last week with killing seven babies born alive and with the 2009 death of a 41-year-old refugee after a botched abortion at the clinic, which prosecutors have called a drug mill by day and abortion mill by night. The medical practice alone netted him at least $1.8 million a year, much of it in cash, they say.

But the women going there were merely exercising their freedom of choice, right?
When Davida Johnson walked into Dr. Kermit Gosnell's clinic to get an abortion in 2001, she saw what she described as dazed women sitting in dirty, bloodstained recliners. As the abortion got under way, she had a change of heart — but claims she was forced by the doctor to continue.

"I said, 'I don't want to do this,' and he smacked me. They tied my hands and arms down and gave me more medication," Johnson told The Associated Press.

The AP tries to mitigate the horror of abortion by blaming it on the abortion protesters:

Johnson, then 21, had a 3-year-old daughter when she became pregnant again. She said she first went to Planned Parenthood in downtown Philadelphia but was frightened away by protesters.

"The picketers out there, they just scared me half to death," Johnson, now 30, recalled this week.

Someone sent her to Gosnell's West Philadelphia clinic, at the Women's Medical Society, saying anti-abortion protesters wouldn't be a problem there. She said she paid him $400 cash.

But really, what is the difference between what Gosnell does and what other abortion providers do on a regular basis? It comes down to a difference of only around 6 inches. You see, while most late-term abortion providers wait until the baby is partially delivered up to the neck before inserting a pair of scissors into the baby's skull, Gosnell did the exact procedure, only a minute or two later after the baby was fully delivered.

Either way presents a heinous end; grand larceny committed against human beings of their chance, nay their right to live their lives; the only offense committed by the infant being its mere existence.

Contrary to popular belief, examples of man's inhumanity to man do not exist exclusively on battlefields, gulags, nor death camps. Man's inhumanity to man is illustrated every day of the year, right within our own neighborhoods, right under our noses, to the most innocent and the most vulnerable among us.

As Mother Teresa of Calcutta once said, "It is a very great poverty to decide that a child must die that you might live as you wish."

The Culture of Death: More Like the Nazis Than You Think

I have often been excoriated by the pro-abortion industry crowd for comparing the practice of abortion to the genocide practiced on the Jews by the Nazis in WWII. In their apoplexy, they claim that there is no comparison between the two heinous practices, and attempt to invoke Godwin's Law because I even attempted to make such a seemingly hyperbolic comparison.

But is the comparison with the practice of the killing of innocent developing human beings that different from what was practiced by the likes of Adolph Hitler, Josef Mengele, or for that matter, Pol Pot?

Many have heard the stories of the Nazis making bar soap from the bodies of the Jews that were exterminated by them.

Well, consider this:
Neocutis' key ingredient known as "Processed Skin Proteins" was developed at the University of Luasanne from the skin tissue of a 14-week gestation electively-aborted male baby donated by the University Hospital in Switzerland. Subsequently, a working cell bank was established, containing several billion cultured skin cells to produce the human growth factor needed to restore aging skin. The list of products using the cell line include: Bio-Gel, Journee, Bio-Serum, Prevedem, Bio Restorative Skin Cream and Lumiere. But Vinnedge is calling for a full boycott of all Neocutis products, regardless of their source.
Yep. using the remains of aborted developing human beings to make moisturizing skin lotion.

Given that according to legend, the Nazis utilized the remains of murdered Jews to manufacture bar soap, the actions of the culture of death as shown in this story suggest that it wouldn't be such an unfair comparison after all, would it?

Well, as Paul Harvey would say, "Hold the phone!"
  • "No human soap"? This is true, but misleading. Though there is some evidence that soap was made from corpses on a very limited experimental scale, the rumored "mass production" was never done, and no soap made from human corpses is known to exist.
  • Notwithstanding of the fact that millions of Jews (as well as Poles, Gypsies and others) suffered and died at the hands of the Nazis, the Nazis didn't actually make soap from human remains.

    Thus, to compare the makers of this hand lotion to the Nazis is indeed an unfair comparison.

    These ghouls are far worse.

    Margaret Sanger's Version of "I have a dream" Coming true?

    Margaret Sanger, the founder of Planned Parenthood, was demonstrably a racist eugenicist:
    The aim of the program was to restrict—many believe exterminate—the black population. Under the pretense of “better health” and “family planning,” Sanger cleverly implemented her plan. What's more shocking is Sanger's beguilement of black America's crème de la crème—those prominent, well educated and well-to-do—into executing her scheme. Some within the black elite saw birth control as a means to attain economic empowerment, elevate the race and garner the respect of whites.
    Margaret Sanger, one of the founders of the Malthusian Eugenics movement, thought it a wonderful idea to "do away" with the "undesirables" of society. Unlike Dr. Martin Luther King, who dreamt of the day when little black children and little white children could walk hand in hand, Margaret Sanger (did I mention she was the founder of Planned Parenthood?) dreamed of the day when little white children would be walking hand in hand with each other--with no black children to be found.

    And the story in today's AP looks like Margaret Sanger's "dream" (to others, a nightmare) is coming ever closer to fruition:
    LONDON (AP) - Giving contraceptives to people in developing countries could help fight climate change by slowing population growth, experts said Friday.

    More than 200 million women worldwide want contraceptives, but don't have access to them, according to an editorial published in the British medical journal, Lancet. That results in 76 million unintended pregnancies every year.

    If those women had access to free condoms or other birth control methods, that could slow rates of population growth, possibly easing the pressure on the environment, the editors say.

    Sounds eerily like...
    (Magaret Sanger and fellow eugenicists)... espoused racial supremacy and “purity,” particularly of the “Aryan” race. Eugenicists hoped to purify the bloodlines and improve the race by encouraging the “fit” to reproduce and the “unfit” to restrict their reproduction.
    Which, when you think of it, is the liberal elitists position on everything. In their mind, their status of being the "enlightened" ones makes them uniquely entitled to the spoils of the world, while the unwashed masses should be happy to live in squalor. While Nancy Pelosi and Algore can have their jetliners to jet themselves and their families to points unknown, the rest of the plebian masses can take public transportation. While Rosie O'Donnell can travel with an armed body guard, she seeks to deny 2nd amendment rights to the plebiscite. While Margaret Sanger and her ideological descendents think that they, the enlightened, are entitled to live, the great 'unwashed masses' beneath them are a waste of resources and thus are not only expendible, but actually have a duty to curb their numbers.

    At any rate, you get the picture.

    And the more you look at it, the more the picture begins to look like Dorian Gray.

    The Road To Hell Is Paved By Obamacare...

    If Obama & his like-minded minions have their way Planned Parenthood will be getting their slimy meat hooks into our kids and grandkids:

    Under Title V ("Other Provisions") of Obama's "America's Affordable Health Choices Act of 2009" (the official name for the bill, H.R. 3200), Subtitle B (School-Based Health Clinics, or SBHC) outlines a program in which the federal government would fund clinics in or near the nation's schools. The administration of these clinics will not rest with the school nurse or anyone who answers to the school administration or parents. Under Section 399Z, "the SBHC sponsoring facility assumes all responsibility for the SBHC administration, operations, and oversight."

    According to the bill, a "sponsoring facility" is "a hospital, a public health department, a community health center, a nonprofit health care agency, (or) a local educational agency." Such broad wording outlining the qualifications for government funds and access to schoolchildren could open the door for groups like Planned Parenthood to operate the clinics in schools with no oversight and full federal government support. The organization currently operates over 850 clinics nationwide.

    The clinics would be funded by federal grants awarded by the Obama administration, which has made it clear that they expect Planned Parenthood to play an active role in their proposed health care system. In the midst of the recent national debate this summer and during the Congressional recess over the health care plan, members of the Obama administration were meeting with Planned Parenthood staff and making strong overtures over their potential role in health care reform.
    Lest you think that this is some tinfoil hat delusional thing, but you may remember when the Obamateur made this speech:
    Note also that it was the Obamateur who no less than three times voted against the "Born Alive Protection Act" that would mandate life saving treatment of newborn unborns born alive after an attempted abortion.

    And now Obama and his like-minded ghouls at Planned Parenthood want to pass on those time-honored values to your children and grandchildren. The same Planned Parenthood founded by Margaret Sanger, an avowed racist and promoter of eugenics.

    So... how's that hopenchange working for you now?

    Of Humans and Clams

    Nicholas Kristof has an interesting op-ed in the New York Times, entitled, "Humanity, Even for Nonhumans," speaking of those who believe that the human race has the moral obligation to relieve suffering of species that we tend to uh... eat. Some interesting tidbits in Kristof's column include this pioneer in animal "rights."
    One of the few exceptions was Jeremy Bentham, the philosopher who 200 years ago also advocated for women’s rights, gay rights and prison reform. He responded to Kant’s lack of interest in animals by saying: “The question is not, Can they reason? nor, Can they talk? but, Can they suffer?
    Interesting line of questioning, especially the italicized phrase.

    Fast forward to a modern, "enlightened" animal rights whacko, also mentioned in the Kristoff piece:
    Yet the movement is also the product of a deep intellectual ferment pioneered by the Princeton scholar Peter Singer.

    Professor Singer wrote a landmark article in 1973 for The New York Review of Books and later expanded it into a 1975 book, “Animal Liberation.” That book helped yank academic philosophy back from a dreary foray into linguistics and pushed it to confront such fascinating questions of applied ethics as: What are our moral obligations to pigs?

    John Maynard Keynes wrote that ideas, “both when they are right and when they are wrong, are more powerful than is commonly understood. Indeed the world is ruled by little else.” This idea popularized by Professor Singer — that we have ethical obligations that transcend our species — is one whose time appears to have come.

    “There’s some growth in numbers of vegetarians, but the bigger thing is a broad acceptance of the idea that animals count,” Mr. Singer reflected the other day.
    Kristoff goes on to further describe the encounter he had with Singer:
    I eagerly pushed Mr. Singer to find his boundaries. “Do you have any compunctions about swatting a cockroach?” I asked him. “Not much,” he replied, citing reasons to doubt that insects are capable of much suffering. Mr. Singer is somewhat unsure about shellfish, although he mostly gives them the benefit of the doubt and tends to avoid eating them.
    If Mr. Singer, a known leftist, would channel his compassion toward ending suffering for all forms of life, animal and human, I may have respect for what he has to say. But like most leftists with regard to their storeroom of compassion, Mr. Singer's capacity for compassion weighs empty when it comes to human beings:

    An internationally known Princeton "bioethicist" and animal-rights activist says he'd kill disabled babies if it were in the "best interests" of the family, because he sees no distinction in the child's life whether it is born or not, and the world already allows abortion.

    The comments come from Peter Singer, a controversial bioethics professor, who responded to a series of questions in the UK Independent this week.

    Earlier, WND reported Singer believes the next few decades will see a massive upheaval in the concept of life and rights, with only "a rump of hard-core, know-nothing religious fundamentalists" still protecting life as sacrosanct.

    To the rest, it will be a commodity to be re-evaluated regularly for its worth.

    To the irreligious left who eschew boiling lobster, who protest killing whales, or baby seals, or for that matter Mr. Singer, who eschews eating oysters on the half-shell due to the mere 'possibility' of their suffering, their stores of compassion somehow run precariously dry when newborn or soon-to-be-born human beings enter the equation.

    Being leftists, they celebrate human death. That's why they worshipped Stalin, Mao, Che Guevara and the North Vietnamese communists, and continue to worship Castro, Chavez and other murderers. That is why they celebrated the banning of DDT, even though they knew it would result in untold human deaths due to malaria and other mosquito-borne diseases.

    To the left, human death is cool. Human death is righteous. For human death fits right in to the Marxist bromide, "Everything that exists deserves to be destroyed." In their view, which is reflective of their über prophet, Karl Marx, their phoenix that is their otherwise unattainable socialist utopia must necessarily rise from the ashes of human debris.

    To the leftist, death is cleansing; death means rebirth.

    Human death, anyway.

    In short, leftists, at their very core, operate from a platform of evil.

    American Child Killers?

    From a leftist at a forum I came across:
    "Our country kills children all over the world. Whether it's the fault of terrorists or not, is this how we want to remembered when our country is nuked. Do we want to be remembered as child killers?"
    To which I responded:
    This is one of the favorite devices of the rabid left: Take their wrongs, and divert attention from them by projecting them onto others.

    The leftist ideology in guises of communism, socialism, et al. has served to literally murder millions of people, including millions of children. From Castro, to Pol Pot, to Stalin, to Lenin, to Mao, to [insert your favorite despot here]; and not only do leftists make excuses for these murdering despots, they want to emulate them and their tactics. To destroy in order to remake has been the hallmark of leftists, since Komrade Karl Marx wrote in his Manifesto, (to parpahrase) "Everything that exists deserves to be destroyed."

    This culture of leftist nihilism has even invaded our shores, in the form of the thousands of innocents murdered on a daily basis on the altar of abortion.

    So, yes, in that vein, America does have a population of baby killers.

    They're called leftists.

    The Real "Little Eichmanns"


    ...can be found within the human embryo harvesting industry:
    A major research project is to be announced this week that will culminate in three years with the first transfusions into human volunteers of "synthetic" blood made from the stem cells of spare IVF embryos. It could help to save the lives of anyone from victims of traffic accidents to soldiers on a battlefield by revolutionising the vital blood transfusion services, which have to rely on a network of human donors to provide a constant supply of fresh blood.
    Hmmm... I wonder just how many of those human embryos, yes, human lives, "volunteered" for this.

    There's something very ghoulish about people destroying innocent life so that they could improve the quality of their own lives.

    Oh, there are the usual culture-of-death liberals who will argue to their dying day that these tiny lives are nothing more than a collection of cells; are sub-human, and as such are quite expendible.

    After all, it becomes easy to kill when the recipient of your deed is stripped of his or her humanity, doesn't it?

    I'm sure that the operators of Auschwitz, Treblinka and Sachsenhausen will likewise vouch for that fact.

    Friday, March 13, 2009

    Forgive them, they know not what they do...

    Or at least I hope they don't.

    What happens when liberalism mixes with religion is nothing less than Frankensteinian; a grotesque, satanic abomination that masquerades as good intentions and good works:
    Caritas Christi, the health-care agency administered by the Archdiocese of Boston, has joined in a successful bid for a government contract to provide health services for low-income clients. The program requires coverage for abortion, sterilization, and contraception.

    State officials on March 13 awarded the contract for low-income coverage to Commonwealth Family Health Plan, a joint venture set up by Caritas Christi and the Centene Corporation, a Missouri-based company which currently has no facilities in Massachusetts. The Commonwealth Family Health Plan program will be centered around the Catholic hospitals of the Caritas Christi network.

    The involvement of the archdiocesan health-care system in a program that provides abortions drew protests from Boston Catholic activists. The Catholic Action League called the contract “a significant defeat for the pro-life movement, inflicted not by secular society, but by the Catholic Church in Boston.”
    Oh, of course, the liberal neo-marxists who have infiltrated the middle levels of the Church heirarchy will always have an "ends justify the means" explanation at the ready:
    Last week, in a response to such criticism, Cardinal Sean O'Malley asserted: “Caritas Christi will never do anything to promote abortions, to direct any patients to providers of abortion or in any way to participate in actions that are contrary to Catholic moral teaching and anyone who suggests otherwise is doing a great disservice to the Catholic Church.”
    Which, of course, is nothing more than a bald-faced lie that could have come from Lucifer himself:
    However, the cardinal's claim was contradicted by representatives of Commonwealth Care, who assured state officials that their program would provide "ready access" to all of the services mandated by the government program, including abortion.

    Under the Commonwealth Family Health Plan system, abortions will not be performed at the Caritas Christi hospitals. But women who wish to procure abortions will be given a telephone number to call for information on where abortions are performed, and, if necessary, transportation to those sites.
    Cardinal Sean O'Malley, with all due respect, you're full of shit. I have nothing but disdain for you and the rest of your neo-marxist komrades in Roman collars who have turned your back against GOD and His flock and toward your new god called "government" to create your sick sense of utopia here on Earth. For that reason, you saw it fit to vote for and to advance the agenda of the biggest pro-abortion senator, ever; again, to advance your twisted vision of "social justice," which, to the detriment of our civilization, has no application to the most innocent and helpless among us, the unborn. And you continue the work of Satan to this day, with your abject rejection of the sanctity of life in your unholy march toward your advancement of his agenda of death.

    Cardinal Sean O'Malley, you had better be thankful that it is not I who will be dispensing ultimate justice; for if it was, you surely would spend eternity rotting in hell. It is because of traitors of the cloth such as yourself that I and many other formerly devout Catholics have left the fold.

    Many shepherds will ruin my vineyard and trample down my field; they will turn my pleasant field into a desolate wasteland. It will be made a wasteland, parched and desolate before me; the whole land will be laid waste because there is no one who cares (Jeremiah 12:10).

    "Woe to the shepherds who are destroying and scattering the sheep of my pasture!" declares Yahweh. Therefore this is what Yahweh, the God of Israel, says to the shepherds who tend my people: "Because you have scattered my flock and driven them away and have not bestowed care on them, I will bestow punishment on you for the evil you have done," declares Yahweh. "I myself will gather the remnant of my flock out of all the countries where I have driven them and will bring them back to their pasture, where they will be fruitful and increase in number (Jeremiah 23:1-3).

    Nuff said.

    Great Pioneers in the Field of Eugenics...

    1. Adolph Hitler


    Thought it would be a good idea to create "the master race." Thought that the "Jewish Problem" could be handled via their extermination.

    2. Josef Mengele (a/k/a "The Angel of Death")
    Mengele selects incoming Jews for labour or extermination in the gas chambers and conducts pseudoscientific medical experiments on inmates, principally infants, young twins, dwarfs and those with genetic abnormalities. He is given his own laboratory block, independent financing and a medical staff.

    He is also supported by the Kaiser Wilhelm Institute of Anthropology, Human Genetics and Eugenics at Dahlem in Berlin and sends specimens to the institute director, Dr Otmar von Verschuer, his former supervisor at the University of Frankfurt and an expert on the genetics of twins.

    Mengele investigates ways to increase human fertility. He tries to find a genetic cause for the disease 'noma' (a rare gangrenous condition of the face and mouth), studies physical abnormalities and contagious diseases, conducts experiments with wounds, and attempts to change the colour of inmate's eyes to blue with injections of chemicals directly into the eyeball. His chief interest is twins.

    3. Margaret Sanger:


    Founder of Planned Parenthood. Along with being an anti-semite and supporting the genocide of the Negro race, of her most famous sayings,
    "It is a vicious cycle; ignorance breeds poverty and poverty breeds ignorance. There is only one cure for both, and that is to stoop breeding these things. Stop bringing to birth children whose inheritance cannot be one of health or intelligence. Stop bringing into the world children whose parents cannot provide for them."

    And:

    "The most merciful thing that the large family does to one of its infant members is to kill it."
    And last, but certainly not least,

    4. San Fran Nancy Pelosi, who famously said yesterday that "contraception is good for the economy."

    Her interview with Stephanopolous:


    No apologies, eh, Nancy? Somehow that doesn't surprise me. That's the way to help the economy. Make sure folks are never born. That's worked so well in Europe.

    But hold your head up proud, Ms. Pelosi. You're in (in)famous company.

    Barack Hussein Obama's Support of Infanticide

    Wednesday, July 02, 2008

    And the Truth will set you free!

    Score one for Life, and one against Margaret Sanger's Planned Parenthood:

    (CNSNews.com) - South Dakota may enforce a law that requires doctors to provide pregnant women with a written statement saying, "the abortion will terminate the life of a whole, separate, unique, living human being," a federal appeals court ruled last Friday.

    In Planned Parenthood v. Rounds, the U.S. Court of Appeals for the Eighth Circuit voted 7-4 to strike down a 2005 preliminary injunction issued by the U.S. District Court for South Dakota.

    The injunction had prevented a statute - requiring abortion providers to tell women, in writing, that an abortion would terminate the life of a "living human being" - from taking effect. The decision by the appeals court reversed the injunction and remanded it to the district court for further proceedings consistent with its opinion.

    The lawsuit, filed by Planned Parenthood Minnesota, North Dakota and South Dakota, required the court to consider whether the definition of human being should include "the unborn human being during the entire embryonic and fetal ages from fertilization to full gestation."

    South Dakota Gov. Mike Rounds and Attorney General Larry Long, representing the state, argued against Planned Parenthood in the suit, providing evidence that the embryo or fetus is "whole, separate, unique and living."

    The court's ruling said, "Planned Parenthood submitted no evidence to oppose that conclusion."

    The court cited a bioethicist's affidavit, submitted by Planned Parenthood, which stated that "to describe an embryo or fetus scientifically and factually, one would say that a living embryo or fetus in utero is a developing organism of the species Homo Sapiens which may become a self-sustaining member of the species if no organic or environmental evidence interrupts its gestation."
    My dear readers, when faced with the Truth of what an abortion is, the pro-abortion, pro-death lobby has no moral leg to stand on. Unlike a pile of wood, which can become a chair, a table, or part of a home, a developing embryo can become only more and more of what it already is--a human being.

    Congratulations to the Eighth Circuit Court of Appeals for having the cajones to face up to that truth.

    Baby survives abortion, lives...


    From here:

    Finley Crampton really shouldn't be here. Although his parents would have loved another child, they knew their baby could inherit a life-threatening kidney condition – and they couldn't take the risk.

    After all, their first son had died of the condition and the second was born with serious kidney damage.

    So when Finley's mother, Jodie Percival, became pregnant while on the Pill, she and her fiance Billy Crampton, 35, made the agonising decision to abort this child.

    'Deciding to terminate at eight weeks was just utterly horrible but I couldn't cope with the anguish of losing another baby,' said Miss Percival, 25.

    However, Finley had other ideas. And some time after the operation, Miss Percival felt a fluttering in her stomach.

    Eventually her doctor sent her for a scan – and she discovered she was 19 weeks pregnant.

    The child had survived the abortion and thrived in the womb. 'I couldn't believe it,' said Miss Percival. 'This was the baby I thought I'd terminated.

    'At first I was angry that this was happening to us, that the procedure had failed.

    'I wrote to the hospital, I couldn't believe that they had let me down like this. They wrote back and apologised and said it was very rare.'

    But a week later, another scan confirmed that this baby had kidney problems too, like the couple's previous children.

    Miss Percival carries a gene which triggers multicystic dysplastic kidney – which causes cysts to grow on the kidneys of an unborn baby.

    Her first baby, Thane, had lived for only 20 minutes after she was forced to deliver him prematurely.

    Her second son, Lewis, now 20 months, was born with a similar condition. He survives on one kidney.

    However, doctors told the couple from Sutton-in-Ashfield, Nottinghamshire, that this child was likely to survive, so they decided he deserved a chance.

    And in November, Finley was born three weeks premature, at 6lb 3oz.

    He had minor kidney damage but is expected to lead a normal life.

    'I knew if that operation hadn't failed he wouldn't have been there,' said Miss Percival, a hairdresser.

    'I just couldn't believe that this child had got through it all and looked so perfect.
    Young Finley would have definitely looked "less than perfect" now, had he not escaped the scalpel.

    FINALLY.

    Colorado, a weary nation will turn its eyes toward you.
    Unborn Personhood Amendment Makes Colorado Ballot
    By Randy Hall
    CNSNews.com Staff Writer/Editor

    (CNSNews.com) - An amendment to the Colorado Constitution that defines a "person" as "any human being from the moment of fertilization" will go before state voters in the Nov. 4 general election.

    Amendment 48, entitled "Definition of a Person," was approved for a statewide vote on Thursday by Colorado Secretary of State Mike Coffman, whose office validated 103,000 signatures on petitions for the ballot initiative -- 27,000 more than required.

    The petition drive -- which actually collected 130,050 signatures -- originated with 20-year-old Kristi Burton, who said in a news release that she developed a deep passion for the pro-life movement at 13 years of age.

    "All humans should be protected by love and by law, and this amendment is a historic effort to ensure equal rights for every person," Burton noted in her statement.

    "We at Colorado for Equal Rights are incredibly thankful for our many volunteers who worked so hard for each signature we delivered to the secretary of state's office and the churches who stood behind us and supported us," she added. "This victory is the voice of the people, and all credit goes to our Creator."

    If approved by voters next fall, the amendment would guarantee every person, at every stage of life, the right to life, liberty, equality of justice and due process of law, Burton said. And while the initiative would not make abortion illegal, supporters and opponents alike believe it could lay the legal framework to legislate against abortion.

    "For the first time in 40 years of 'legalized' child killing, pro-lifers have moved an entire state to consider the God-given right to life of the unborn," said Brian Rohrbough, president of American Right to Life, in a statement of his own on Thursday.

    "Abortion is wrong because it's a baby; it's always wrong to intentionally kill a baby," said Rohrbough, "even when its father is a criminal, as with incest."

    "The abortion clinic covers up the crime of incest and typically sends the victim back home to her rapist," the group's Web site states. "Even worse, they often send her home with her rapist, the criminal who brought her to the clinic."

    "There are no 'hard cases,'" said Steve Curtis, American Right to Life's vice president and former chair of the Colorado Republican Party. "Abortion for incest emboldens a criminal to rape his young relative, helps him escape being caught, tempts him to repeat his crime and is not compassionate because it kills a baby and increases the woman's suffering."

    "Abortion clinics nationwide refuse to comply with mandatory reporting laws for suspected child rape," noted Jo Scott, director of the group Pro-Life Colorado.

    "We brought audio-taped evidence of that failure to the Colorado attorney general's office, and they chose to look the other way," Scott said. "Personhood for the unborn will reduce crimes against women and children."

    "American Right to Life applauds the dozens of Colorado politicians and candidates who have publicly endorsed the personhood amendment," Rohrbough added, "and urges all Christians, pro-life leaders and organizations to support personhood as the only foundation on which to reverse the de-criminalization of killing unborn children."
    Of course, the abortion industry, who makes their living from slaughtering the innocent, is having coniptions, and is throwing every cliche they have at the amendment:
    However, opponents -- including a "broad-based coalition including nurses, doctors, religious leaders, community groups and health-care advocacy organizations" called Protect Families, Protect Choices -- have claimed that the amendment is "dangerous and deceptive."

    "Access to affordable health care is already tough enough for Colorado families," the organization's Web site states. "But now a deceptively written ballot measure would put women's lives at risk and threaten access to health care.

    "This amendment could make abortion illegal at all times, even in the earliest weeks of pregnancy," the site adds. "It could outlaw abortion even in the cases of rape, incest and when a woman's life is at risk."

    The ballot initiative is "a dangerous attempt to put politicians and lawyers in the middle of our most personal and private health-care decisions," the coalition adds. "It would even open the door to letting prosecutors investigate miscarriages and go through our most private medical records.

    "The amendment is so extreme that it could even ban several common forms of birth control and prohibit in-vitro fertilization and life-saving stem cell research," says the coalition, which includes the League of Women Voters and Planned Parenthood of the Rocky Mountains.
    First of all, abortion is not "health care." [Yet another example of this] No one "gets healthy" from abortion; least of all the aborted. Second of all, tell me one instance in which embryonic stem cells saved one life. The dirty little secret is that there isn't any, since embryonic stem cells are too unstable to be useful. Yet the Mengelians in the abortion industry continue on with the lie.

    The pro-death movement is based on one concept and one concept alone: Convenience of the living trumps the sanctity of life.

    While the absence of abortion as a possibility may indeed make the lives of those who are in the midst of an unwanted pregnancy more "complicated" for a period of time, the "final solution" of the theft of a chance at life itself from a developing human being is by no means a just alternative.

    And Coloradans will have a glowing opportunity to shout that from the Rocky Mountain-tops come this November.

    Just what is the abortionist's agenda?

    The pro-infanticide faction of the culture of death have long maintained that their aim was to keep abortion "safe, legal and rare."

    While they have certainly kept abortion legal, they certainly have not kept the heinous act "rare," as over 40,000,000 infanticides after Roe v. Wade can attest.

    Nor, could one say that they, in reality, mean to keep abortion safe, as can be affirmed by this:

    Planned Parenthood Sues to Halt Missouri Regulations
    By Randy Hall

    August 24, 2007

    (CNSNews.com) - Planned Parenthood has filed a lawsuit
    to try to stop a Missouri law that would require two of the
    organization's offices to follow tighter operating regulations
    or shut down. A federal judge is expected to rule in the
    matter on Monday, Aug. 27.


    Under HB 1055, abortion offices would be monitored by
    Missouri's Department of Health and Senior Services as
    "ambulatory surgical centers," which have higher opera-
    tional standards, for the facilities and the personnel.


    The measure - which was signed into law last month
    by Republican Gov. Matt Blunt - states that the desig-
    nation applies to any center where any second- or
    third-trimester abortions are performed, as well as
    facilities that conduct more than five first-trimester
    abortions a month.


    Peter Brownlie, CEO of Planned Parenthood of
    Kansas and Mid-Missouri (PPKM), said the new
    measure "is intended to shut down abortion services
    at two Planned Parenthood centers in the state" -
    the Columbia and Brous (Kansas City) facilities -
    but would have "no impact on family planning
    services or the quality of care patients receive."


    The law, scheduled to go into effect on Aug. 27,
    would require that hallways be at least six feet
    wide and doors be at least 44 inches wide. The
    clinics must also have separate male and female
    changing rooms for staff, and a recovery room
    with space for a minimum of four beds with three
    feet of clearance around each bed.


    PPKM has charged that meeting the new
    regulations would require $2 million in extensive
    remodeling to its Columbia facility or closing down
    the center. In addition, "it makes no sense to require
    a location like our Brous Center to become a
    surgery center, since no surgery is performed there,"
    Brownlie said in a news release.

    Yep... no surgery is performed there, unless you call a procedure in which "the vagina is spread open, and a scraping or suction instrument is passed through the cervix and into the uterus to remove tissue from the lining of the uterus" "non-surgical".

    Of course, requiring higher standards in keeping abortion "safe" is not sitting well with the ghouls at planned parenthood:
    "This onerous legislation has nothing to do with protecting women's health and safety," Brownlie stated, and "Planned Parenthood remains committed to providing needed reproductive health services in Missouri. We will not stand by and allow politicians to intimidate women and create more barriers to their ability to get health care."
    But when you figure that:
    ...(b)ased upon an estimated average cost of $400 per abortion, STOPP estimates that PPFA had a total income of $90,950,000 from abortion procedures in 2002. STOPP has made a yearly estimate of PPFA’s abortion income for each year 1977 – 2002 based upon an estimated average cost of an abortion in each particular year. Please view the results in the chart, Estimated Planned Parenthood Abortion Income 1977 – 2002. Adding up each year’s estimated abortion income from 1977 to 2002 gives a total of about $985,000,000 of income from abortion during that period.
    You'd think they'd be able to spare a little of that blood money for improvements to their facilities, wouldn't you?

    You see, the dirty little secret is that Planned Parenthood is far from a selfless "public service agency" that seeks to provide a needed service to women in trouble. Rather, Planned Parenthood is nothing more than a money making operation that seeks to profit from the slaughter of the most innocent among us.

    A mountain of fetuses, over 40,000,000 strong, bears testimony to that fact.

    Top 10 jobs that abortionists could choose when Roe v. Wade is overturned

    With the latest research that will once and for all rebuke the last vestige of propaganda that remains in the pro-abortion lobby's slimy repertoire (h/t Lady Logician), along with the likelihood that Roe v. Wade will eventually be overturned, there remains one more moral issue:

    What will the abortionists do after being out of a job?

    As a public service, I'd like to fill the void with some suggestions.

    With apologies to Nihlist, who is the undisputed king of Top 11 lists, I hereby present my own

    Top 10 List of occupational alternatives for ex-abortionists:


    10. Step on unwanted baby chicks

    9. Club baby seals.

    8. Shake down kids for lunch money.

    7. Mob assassin, specializing in offing kids.

    6. Open a friendly neighborhood Josef Mengele Memorial Museum.

    5. President of NOW.

    4. Dr. Jack Kervorkian's personal bitch.

    3. A songwriter.

    2. Volunteer at a local animal shelter.

    1. Rot in hell.

    The "Culture of Death" in our midst..

    From CNS:
    (CNSNews.com) - Planned Parenthood is under fire after one of its employees was recorded encouraging a student - who was posing as a pregnant minor - to lie about her age in order to obtain an abortion without the abortion provider having to report the "statutory rape" to the police.

    Lila Rose, an 18-year-old sophomore at the University of California Los Angeles, visited a Planned Parenthood clinic in the city, posing as a 15-year-old impregnated by her 23-year-old boyfriend. The visit was part of an investigation for The Advocate, a new pro-life magazine distributed on the UCLA campus.

    California law requires abortion clinics to report instances of statutory rape to police. The age of consent in California is 16.

    In covertly-filmed video of the meeting between Rose and an unnamed Planned Parenthood employee, the staffer is heard to tell Rose: "If you're 15, we have to report it ... If you're not, if you're older than that, then we don't need to."

    "Okay, but if I just say I'm not 15, then it's different?" Rose asks.

    "You could say 16," the worker replies, later adding, "Just figure out a birth date that works. And I don't know anything."


    Just wait til you read the non-apology apology from Planned Parenthood:

    Kathy Kneer, president and CEO of Planned Parenthood Affiliates of California - the state public policy office of Planned Parenthood - criticized Rose's tactics but told Cybercast News Service that staff has been notified of its policy to follow all reporting laws.

    "We believe the individuals behind this are doing this not out of motivation to protect teens but in fact to discredit Planned Parenthood," Kneer said of Rose and her male accomplice. "They went in with an objective to manipulate our staff, (DAMN!!) and they did succeed in manipulating our staff." ("And we would've gotten away with killing another baby if it wasn't for you meddling kids!"-ed)

    Question, Ms. Kneer--just who was manipulating whom??

    The woman (in the tape) relates that having herself given birth at the age of 17, 16 years ago, the decision had severely hindered her education and life goals. "If I would do it again, I would not continue the pregnancy," she is heard telling Rose.

    But just wait til you hear Planned Parenthoods non-apology apology:

    While Kneer was critical of Rose's approach, she acknowledged that the staff had violated Planned Parenthood policies.

    "It is against Planned Parenthood's policy to counsel clients in this fashion, period, (nod-nod, wink-wink--ed) Kneer said. "It is our policy to completely comply with all reporting laws. We regularly train and retrain our staff on all aspects of not getting caught reporting laws."

    "The staff gave an incorrect answer," Kneer said of the employee who suggested that Rose lie about her age. "She should have said, 'It's reportable' and ended the conversation there. But she allowed herself to be manipulated by Lila, and that's against our policy."

    Allowed herself to be manipulated??
    Again, I ask--who was manipulating who, Ms. Kneer?

    Kneer said Planned Parenthood "immediately notified all of our staff and reminded them that this is in violation of our policy (be more careful, dammit!), and we continue to do that on a regular basis."

    So Planned Parenthood was willing to look the other way, when for all they knew a 15-year old girl was being taken advantage and systematically raped of by a 23-year old.

    They get caught red handed (as abortionists are so often wont to do), so what happens?

    Why, they blame the alleged 15-year old "victim," of course.

    If this had been a real case, there'd be one more dead baby in the dumpster, and a few hundred more dollars in Planned Parenthood's coffers.

    Not to mention another young girl, scarred for life.

    What a ghoulish existence they lead!
