Last week GOP senatorial candidate for Missouri Todd Akin found himself at the center of a media firestorm due to a very inappropriate choice of words he made. He had been questioned about his prolife position on abortion policy, with particular emphasis placed on […]

180: a powerful film you must see
This is a half-hour film that I wish everyone would watch and consider. Give it a chance. It could be a life-changer for you or someone you know. Warning: it does contain some graphic images. [youtube http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7y2KsU_dhwI?rel=0&w=560&h=315]
Voodoo morality: Obama offers a meaningless compromise
President Obama has come out with his glorious “compromise” regarding his health care regulation that would force religious institutions to pay for contraceptive and abortifacient coverage for their employees. And what solution has The Smartest Person In The World come up with? That the […]
A most illiberal decree
The latest depredation of the Obama administration involves a health care regulation that will force all medical insurance plans to provide full coverage for drugs and procedures which can take the life of an already-conceived human being. This is exactly what we warned the […]
“Birth control” –and abortion – for all, underwritten by all, like it or not
In the latest depredation by the Obama administration, Health and Human Services is proposing radical new regulations that would require private insurers – even those covering religious institutions such as churches, schools and hospitals – to fund contraceptive services with no charge or co-pay […]
Bernard Nathanson, rest in peace
I just learned with sadness of the passing of Dr. Bernard Nathanson. Nathanson’s life was a bit reminiscent of that of Paul of Tarsus. In the early 1970s, he pioneered the ushering in of unlimited abortion in the United States. As this compelling and […]
The church and today’s youth
It was the best of times, it was the worst of times. I’m going to tie together a few recent headlines here, to try to get a sense of where we are headed as a church and as a nation. On the bad side, […]
Obama celebrates abortion
On the 38th anniversary of Roe v. Wade, president Obama issued an affirmational statement: Today marks the 38th anniversary of Roe v. Wade, the Supreme Court decision that protects women’s health and reproductive freedom, and affirms a fundamental principle: that government should not intrude […]
The seduction of a nation
Yesterday I watched video of Bill Clinton stumping for Maurice Hinchey, one of the most odious characters in a Congress that has quite a few. Clinton was heckled, and he took control of the situation by bragging on his four balanced budgets as president. […]
Still think you won’t be paying for abortions?
From Newsrealblog comes this damning video of the Sec. of HHS Sebelius describing an accounting sleight of hand that will indeed cause every taxpayer to pay for abortion. It’s bad enough for a nation to tolerate abortion. Elective abortion blatantly crosses the line of […]
Senator Nelson’s price -updated
From the Bread and Circuses Dept. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PIt6UHQP6Ys Gateway pundit has also gathered a list of some other parochial sweeteners to this deal, at the expense of the commonwealth. So many politicians, so few statesmen:
For this reason you could not defeat your enemies
The House of Representatives debate on the healthcare bill made for some great theater last night. There were high points (see Mike Pence’s moving speech) and low points, and in general it was fascinating to watch this great engine of state in operation. We […]
Abortion in the healthcare bill, documented
The ACLJ has come up with the abortion provisions in the House healthcare bill, H3962. You will find it here. Joe Wilson was right about Obama’s bald-faced lie to the joint session of Congress and to the American people. Recall that Obama had wrapped […]
