I like this video on Kansas Gov. Kathleen Sebelius, now Obama’s pic for Health and Human Services Secretary (h/t: Catholic Fire): As far as I’m concerned, no one who so ardently defends the practice of sucking the brains out of partially delivered babies and covering-up rapes should ever be associated with the words “health” or “human services” much less in … Read More
Update on the Awesome 12 Year Old Pro-Life Speaker
According to LifeSiteNews, the 12 year old who I mentioned last week actually won her speech contest: Lia’s mother says that the topic was of her own choosing, and that she was determined not to back down, even after teachers told her it was “too mature” and “too controversial.” “She was also told that if she went ahead with that … Read More
License to Lie
I don’t know if I ever posted this before, but it needs to be seen. It’s video of abortionist Alberto Hodari speaking to students at Wayne State University in Detroit, MI in 2007 (h/t Jivin J): Sorry I’ve been so quiet lately – but I do feel much better now! Thanks for your thoughts and prayers. I’m actually probably going … Read More
Damn, She’s Good!

Who is Separating Pregnant Women from Their Unborn Children?
I seriously wonder if pro-choice people ever really listen to themselves speak. On C-Span Thursday morning I caught Sen. Barbara Boxer arguing with Sen. Orin Hatch against an amendment to codify a rule the Bush Administration put in place adding the “unborn child” as a patient under SCHIP. She claimed that because SCHIP already offered coverage to all pregnant women … Read More
Virtual Abortion Holocaust Memorial
Georgia Right to Life has launched a virtual memorial wall to remember the almost 50 MILLION unborn children murdered since the legalization of abortion in America. It was inspired by the Vietnam Memorial which, with 58,000 names, is 500 feet long. According to this story, a similar wall displaying all of the abortion victim’s names would measure 81 miles in … Read More
The Root of the Abortion Problem
In a letter to the editor last week an Our Sunday Visitor reader responds to a previous OSV article asking if American Catholics are suffering from a conscience formation deficit and no longer taking abortion seriously: The problem is that abortion is not the problem but the symptom. For several generations we have tolerated a culture where our sexual values … Read More
