The decision by the Komen for the Cure breast cancer group to stop funding the Planned Parenthood abortion business is making huge waves today and a little known decision to hire a pro-life vice president may be responsible for it. In 2010 Georgia Republican Secretary of State Karen Handel decided to run for governor to [...] 
The Planned Parenthood abortion business is not happy about the headline-making news that the Komen for the Cure breast cancer charity will stop donations to it until a Congressional investigation is resolved. As LifeNews reported, Komen says it is halting all grants because of public pressure from pro-life groups and due to the impending investigation [...] 
Maria Cahill is not your typical Miss Delaware. Underneath the glittery dresses, and dazzling smile is a girl who is down-to- earth, motivated, and courageous. She is determined to redefine the “pageant girl image” by proving that your favorite meal can be a Big Mac from McDonald’s (don’t forget the large fry!), and you don’t [...] 
Emily Ramshaw’s New York Times report on new abortion regulations in Texas, “Required Delay Between Sonogram and Abortion Creates Logistical Issues,” made the national edition Sunday. In an odd twist for the liberal Times, Ramshaw lamented the plight of abortion clinics having to comply with regulations. And isn’t it ironic for the pro-regulation Times to [...] 
After years of protests and criticism from pro-life advocates, the biggest breast cancer organization, Susan G. Komen for the Cure has announced it is halting further grants and donations to the Planned Parenthood. Figures from August directly from the Komen for the Cure foundation show 18 affiliates of the breast cancer charity gave a total [...] 
Lawyers for abortion practitioner Steven Chase Brigham are seeking to have the murder charges filed against him dismissed. Brigham, who has been charged with murder in the deaths of viable babies during illegal late-term abortions is scheduled to stand trial June 4-15. As LifeNews has reported, Steven Chase Brigham and Nicola Irene Riley have been [...] Hugo Chávez scapegoats the Jewish community; the Wall Street Journal has a video report, In other Venezuela news, Venezuela could nationalize banks that refuse to fund gov’t-promoted farm projects Chavez singled out the president of Banesco, Juan Carlos Escotet, ordering him to lend more to Venezuela’s cash-strapped farmers. “If you cannot do it, give me your bank,” Chavez said, prompting applause from a crowd of government officials and supporters. A bill approved last year by Chavez’s allies in the National Assembly describes banking as a “public service” and gives the government the authority to declare banks to be of “public utility,” which paves the way for state nationalizations. The government already seized control of about a dozen banks in recent years, accusing them of causing financial problems and violating banking rules. Yesterday Venezuela received the last shipment of gold bars in an operation that repatriated 160 tons of the South American country’s reserves of the metal held abroad, said Nelson Merentes, president of the country’s central bank. [...] 
I recently released a small statement about how abortion is oppressive to women; a couple of people asked me how I can find abortion to be oppressive if it is their free choice, so I decided to expand on my thought. Here is the original quote that spawned the questions I received: “The abolition of [...] Ace is on Ben Howe’s Internet radio show along with Adam Baldwin right now. Listen here. There’s a replay at 11pm Eastern, and the show archive will also be available on Ben’s website later on. Open thread in the comments…. [...] 
The lone abortion business in North Dakota continues to fight a state law protecting women from the dangerous abortion drug, RU 486. The law in question protects women from abortion businesses that use the abortion drug RU 486 improperly — thereby putting their lives and health at risk. But the Center for Reproductive Rights filed [...] The amount of money the federal government takes out of the U.S. economy in taxes will increase by more than 30 percent between 2012 and 2014, according to the Budget and Economic Outlook published today by the CBO. At the same time, according to CBO, the economy will remain sluggish, partly because of higher taxes. “In particular, between 2012 and 2014, revenues in CBO’s baseline shoot up by more than 30 percent,” said CBO, “mostly because of the recent or scheduled expirations of tax provisions, such as those that lower income tax rates and limit the reach of the alternative minimum tax (AMT), and the imposition of new taxes, fees, and penalties that are scheduled to go into effect.” The U.S. economy, CBO projects, will perform “below its potential” for another six years and unemployment will remain above 7 percent for another three. [...] Whan, Whan, Hwhan. You are so, so dumb. You’re like a stupid hot chick, except you’re not hot, and not a chick, except soft and womanly, but not in a good chick sort of way. B cups? [...] CBO: Had that portion of the decline in the labor force participation rate since 2007 that is attributable to neither the aging of the baby boomers nor the downturn in the business cycle (on the basis of the experience in previous downturns) not occurred, the unemployment rate in the fourth quarter of 2011 would have been about 1¼ percentage points higher than the actual rate of 8.7 percent. In other words, the real unemployment rate is 10%.

Once I set those things aside, Romney is the only candidate who has earned my vote. Santorum is not on the ballot in Virginia, and didn’t bother to get on the ballot – just like Newt. [...] 
At a time when top pro-choice blogger Jill Filipovic tweets that “2011 was a really really REALLY bad year for abortion rights”, Casey Martinson, the Director of Public Affairs for Planned Parenthood of the Southern Finger Lakes, writes that “the sky is falling” on Roe v. Wade, and Cecile Richards cries about the “unprecedented attacks” [...] Or Romney. Lot of caveats there. Big Government claims sources inside someone’s camp who says their exit polls, for whatever they count, show a Romney win. It is what it is. [...] 
Many people who read my work elsewhere think transhumanism movement is not an important pro-life issue. It is so abstract an idea to them that they regularly wonder why I bother writing about it. I think it is simply because they don’t realize how much transhumanism is already in our consciousness. Artificial human enhancements are [...] Based on your criteria as outlined here, looks like Rick Santorum more fits your model than does Mitt Romney. Strange that your criteria is how a man looks and not how he acts. Character is more than skin deep. [...] I know this is corny, but when I read your comments about Romney, your challenge to the “Stepford” personna, it brought tears to my eyes. I truly long for a leader who is sincere and good inside. We’ve had too many phonies and I need to know there are still good, honest, hard-working men in the world who sincerely care about this country. My 19 year old son was treated for a severe motocycle injury by a parapalegic resident practicing at the University of Utah. (We live in Oregon, but the accident occured in Utah.) And guess who picked up the tab to help this doctor complete medical school after his paralyzing ski accident [...] Steve Hanke doesn’t think so; instead, China’s (as well as the rest of the world’s) future lies with stability. Stability requires China to adopt a free-market, fixed exchange-rate system – just like the one in Hong Kong. It’s time for China to end Washington’s currency war. China can do this by a preemptive strike: adopt a fixed yuan-dollar exchange rate and dump capital controls. [...] 
President Barack Obama is adding to his massive pro-abortion record by placing yet another abortion activist on a top federal appeals court — this time a lawyer credited with helping craft the Roe v. Wade decision. Obama has appointed Andrew Hurwitz to the 9th Circuit Court, the most liberal appeals court in the country based [...] Someone mentioned “Palin threads just don’t have the same juice they used to.” It seems that way to me now. I don’t listen to her either way anymore. With the party now turning to a presidential election, is her role… [...] 
Catholic Advocate, a leading grassroots pro-life organization for Catholics, today launched a nationwide campaign providing resources for pro-life advocates wanting to speak out against the mandate the Obama administration has put place forcing religious groups to cover birth control and drugs that can cause abortions. Catholic Advocate opposes the recently announced Department of Health and [...] There is some dispute on the right as to whether this was warranted or police brutality. Although it’s fun to laugh at hippies getting tased (oh boy is it), surely we don’t want cops getting “taser happy” at protesters, generally…. [...] 
“ Look, up in the sky!” “It’s a Bird!” “It’s a Plane!” “It’s Virginia Senator Janet Howell the Punitive Proctologist !” The venomous vixen of villainy. The viper of vindictiveness. The Rectal Avenger rides again! Virginia Senator Janet Howell, Madam of misogyny has taken the Virginia Senate to new depths of digital rectal depravity! No longer to able to block legislation with a single “I said so” the Female Fairfax Fruitcake in a Frock has introduced an amendment to “SB 484 – Abortion: Informed Consent” that would require a punitive prostate exam for any man seeking treatment for “erectile dysfunction” as retribution for having a woman actually view an ultrasound image of the baby they were intent on aborting. And apparently, that was not enough for the Rectal Avenger, the man would also be required to perform a stress test. The bill was not clear on whether the two procedures would be required simultaneously, but I would imagine it would be difficult to run on a treadmill with a doctor’s digits in one’s derriere.
