Some time ago, Live Action published a series on babies born alive after abortions. The series highlighted cases where children were born after abortions and not allowed to survive.

New York Times All But Runs Fundraising Piece for Texas’ Pro-Abortion Wendy Davis

It must be nice to be an obscure Democratic state legislator when a major liberal newspaper runs a puff piece in your favor. Such was the case in a June 27 story in The New York Times highlighting the filibuster of a Texas abortion law by Democratic state senator Wendy Davis.
In total, the 18-paragraph piece read more like a campaign letter to donors than an actual news article, with the substance of the bill buried in the 16th paragraph of page A23.

Born With No Arms, Chet McDoniel Says “I’m Not Perfect, But I’m Worth It”

“I’m not perfect, but I’m worth it.”

Abortion “Rights” Not Synonymous With Women’s Health
