Army Briefing Tells Soldiers Christians and Pro-Lifers are a “Radical” Threat
A new Fox News report issued today says soldiers attending a pre-deployment briefing at Fort Hood were told that Christians and conservative political advocates are a threat to the nation. They were also informed that pro-life advocates are “radical.”
From the report by Todd Starnes: A soldier who attended the Oct. 17th briefing told me the counter-intelligence agent in charge of the meeting spent nearly a half hour discussing how evangelical Christians and groups like the American Family Association were “tearing the country apart.” http://www.lifenews.com/2013/10/23/army-briefing-tells-soldiers-christians-and-pro-lifers-are-a-radical-threat/
Family Rejects Abortion Pressure, Welcomes New Baby With Spina Bifida
Claudia and Jon Turner are inspiring parents who made a grim discovery upon going to their baby’s first ultrasound scan. The Turners discovered their newborn baby had been diagnosed with spina bifida — a condition that would leave their baby dealing with a significant disability.
From a story on the story: Imagine going along to your baby’s first scan and discovering your unborn child has a condition that will almost certainly mean he/she will be physically and possibly mentally disabled. http://www.lifenews.com/2013/10/23/family-rejects-abortion-pressure-welcomes-new-baby-with-spina-bifida/

What Happens to Unborn Babies After Abortion? Pathologists Share the Horrors
One of the most convenient things about abortion is that it takes care of the perceived “problem” in a permanent way—people walk into the abortion clinic with a child growing inside them, and leave after the child’s forcible eviction. The pro-life movement tries to prevent people from entering the abortion clinic in the first place, and urges people to seek healing if they decide to go through with the abortion after all.
Mandatory Fee Has All Obamacare Plans in Rhode Island Paying for Abortions
Komen for the Cure was the subject of national controversy when it decided to stop providing grants to the Planned Parenthood abortion business and, following pressure from abortion advocates and the media, reversed course days later.
The headlines were an alert to pro-life advocates to not trust the breast cancer charity and its donations and number of Race for the Cure event participants have suffered as a result. Since then, Komen has restablished itself as a reliable funder of the nation’s biggest abortion company — to the tune of $700,000, according to one pro-life leader. http://www.lifenews.com/2013/10/23/mandatory-fee-has-all-obamacare-plans-in-rhode-island-paying-for-abortions/


40 Days for Life Has Saved Over 7,800 Babies From Abortions
We thank God for all the babies saved from abortion. For us, this is about life and death – not finances. But for the abortion industry, every life saved equals money lost. And for them, that makes 40 Days for Life very bad for business.
So far, 26 babies have been spared from abortion during this campaign in Milwaukee … “that we know of!” local coordinator Dan Miller added. He then took that number and did a bit of calculating. http://www.lifenews.com/2013/10/23/40-days-for-life-has-saved-over-7800-babies-from-abortions/
Politifact Falsely Claims Wendy Davis “Opposes Late-Term Abortions”
Texas gubernatorial candidate and state legislator Wendy Davis is so supportive of late-term abortions that she single-handedly filibustered a bill in the Texas legislature that would have banned abortions in Texas after 20 weeks of pregnancy.
Despite the national hoopla and attention that surrounded her filibuster — pink tennis shoes and all — the Politifact fact checking web site has the audacity today to claim that Davis “opposes late-term abortions.” http://www.lifenews.com/2013/10/23/politifact-falsely-claims-wendy-davis-opposes-late-term-abortions/


The Media Doesn’t Know There’s No Such Thing as a “Born-Alive Fetus”
The AP is biased in its use of terminology, using particular terms when it has picked a “side” in political and cultural controversies. So are most of the rest of the media that take marching orders from the AP stylebook.
Sometimes bias in reporting leads to inaccurate science–as in the horrible story of the young woman caught shop lifting at a Victoria’s Secret store with a dead late term fetus or newborn baby in her bag. http://www.lifenews.com/2013/10/23/the-media-doesnt-know-theres-no-such-thing-as-a-born-alive-fetus/

Planned Parenthood Attacks Ken Cuccinelli on Rape While it Ignores Statutory Rape
