Obama: I’m “Sorry” Americans Are Losing Health Insurance Under Obamacare
Too little too late. That’s the feeling most Americans who have lost their health insurance under Obamacare will have about President Barack Obama apologizing this afternoon for those who have had their insurance plans canceled thanks to his government-run health care system.

“I am sorry that they are finding themselves in this situation based on assurances they got from me,” he told NBC News in an exclusive interview at the White House. http://www.lifenews.com/2013/11/07/obama-im-sorry-americans-are-losing-health-insurance-under-obamacare/

Pro-Life Groups Demand Harry Reid Allow a Vote on 20-Week Abortion Ban
The House of Representatives has already passed the bill to ban abortions after 20 weeks of pregnancy and the only thing standing in the way of getting the legislation to President Barack Obama is pro-abortion Senate Democratic Leader Harry Reid.

In June, the House approved the legislation and the vote for the bill broke down on mostly partisan lines with Republicans supporting the ban on late-term abortions and Democrats opposing it. President Barack Obama has issued a veto threat should the Senate approve the bill. http://www.lifenews.com/2013/11/07/pro-life-groups-demand-harry-reid-allow-a-vote-on-20-week-abortion-ban/

Senator: Banning Abortions After Five Months a Waste of Time, Not Worthy of Debate
Sen. Patty Murray was one of three pro-abortion members of the U.S. Senate today to take to the Senate floor to condemn a new bill that bans abortions after five months of pregnancy. Murrary, a Washington Democrat, claims the bill is a waste of time and not worthy of debate.

“The American people have spoken loudly, that they want us to focus on jobs and the economy, and they don’t want Congress to keep treading on their rights to access to health care,” Murray said. “In election after election, people have said: ‘Focus on jobs, not on attacking women’s health.’” http://www.lifenews.com/2013/11/07/senator-banning-abortions-after-five-months-a-waste-of-time-not-worthy-of-debate/

Baby Weighing Less Than a Can of Soda Heads Home From Hospital Soon
Alexis Clarke weighed just 11 ounces at birth — smaller than a can of soda. That was six months ago, when she was delivered at UCSD Medical Center at just 25 weeks. The smallest baby ever born at the medical center, Alexis is only now finally able to head home.
After months of medical care, Alexis is now bigger and healthier — and her family has supported her each and every day. http://www.lifenews.com/2013/11/07/tiny-baby-born-at-11-ounces-heads-home-from-the-hospital-soon/

“Pro-Choice” Blogger Promotes “10 Reasons to Have an Abortion”
So I’ve been made aware of an article on a website called Mommyish, 10 Reasons to Have an Abortion — Illustrated by Adorable Cats, and written by Eve Vawter.

Let’s be honest here. Most of her reasons are without substance, so the cat pictures are there to make her argument more emotionally compelling so that you don’t notice the flawed reasoning (after all, why would you post cat pictures in an article talking about the death of human beings in an attempt to be “cute,” especially if you recognize that most women don’t make the abortion decision lightly and since most of the cat pictures don’t even illustrate the reason they are included with?). http://www.lifenews.com/2013/11/07/pro-choice-blogger-promotes-10-reasons-to-have-an-abortion/
