Andrew Cuomo: Pro-Life People “Have No Place in the State of New York”Governor Andrew Cuomo of New York has already proven himself to be one of the most pro-abortion politicians in the country. He’s repeatedly pushed a bill that would make the state that has some of the highest abortion rates in the nation further down the road of unlimited abortions.
Now, Cuomo has said that pro-life people have no business living in the state. If the governor has any interest in pursuing national office with a potential Democratic presidential campaign, he’s definitely lost the majority of the country that appreciates the right to life of unborn babies. http://www.lifenews.com/2014/01/17/andrew-cuomo-pro-life-people-have-no-place-in-the-state-of-new-york/

Bishop Who Escaped Abortion After Doctors Said He’d Be a “Freak” Will Lead March for Life
There are thousands, perhaps millions of people who could have become abortion victims because their parents were informed by their doctors that they would have physical or mental health issues after birth. Bravely, those parents decided not to have an abortion and, in many cases, those unborn babies before perfectly healthy people.
Bishop Andrew Cozzens is one such person. LifeNews has profiled this bishop who escaped abortion and now he’s given an interview to CatholicVote to share the rest of the story. Next week, he will lead students from Benedictine College at the March for Life. http://www.lifenews.com/2014/01/17/bishop-who-escaped-abortion-after-doctors-said-hed-be-a-freak-will-lead-march-for-life/



Judge Strikes North Carolina Law Letting Women See Ultrasound of Baby Before Abortion A federal judge Friday afternoon struck down a pro-life law in North Carolina allowing women a chance to see an ultrasound of their unborn baby before considering an abortion. The law faced a lawsuit from the ACLU and Planned Parenthood.
The law also requires the abortion practitioner to allow a woman considering an abortion to hear the heartbeat of her baby and to describe what the ultrasound shows. http://www.lifenews.com/2014/01/17/judge-strikes-north-carolina-law-letting-women-see-ultrasound-of-baby-before-abortion/
Judge in Case of Father Trying to Kill His Unborn Child Recuses HerselfThe judge in the controversial case of a father who is attempting to end his pregnant wife’s life support, which would kill his unborn child, has recused herself.
Marlise Munoz collapsed in her home last November from an apparent blood clot in her lungs when she was 14 weeks pregnant with her second child. Her husband and other family members have asked the John Peter Smith Hospital in Ft. Worth to remove Marlise from life support after they were told she was “brain dead.” Ending life support would also end her unborn baby’s life. http://www.lifenews.com/2014/01/17/judge-in-case-of-father-trying-to-kill-his-unborn-child-recuses-herself/
Media Goes Crazy After Pregnant Woman’s Killer Executed, Ignores AbortionLast night by lethal injection of “untested drugs”, Ohio executed the brutal thug who, in 1989, raped and stabbed to death expectant mother Joy Stewart.
Naturally, the left wing advocacy media wants to let people know inhumane and cruel they believe it was by giving a play by play of what the killer went through in his final moments. Examples of headlines, along with excerpts (bolded emphasis added by me): http://www.lifenews.com/2014/01/17/media-goes-crazy-after-pregnant-womans-killer-executed-ignores-abortion/
