"When Mitt Romney says, ‘Planned Parenthood, we're going to get rid of that,'" the ad says, "Romney is saying he'll deny women the birth control and cancer screenings they depend on."Planned Parenthood plans to spend $1.4 million airing the ad in swing states.
That statement can be misleading. Mr. Romney was answering a question about what federal funding he would target for elimination or reductions if he is elected. His campaign has said he wants to end federal funding of Planned Parenthood, not the organization itself.
The suspect then drove her around in her Saturn Vue for about ten minutes before stopping in an alley in Detroit. That was near I94 and I75.
Then the man said two things.
"He said 'you know why this is happening' and then he asked her about how far along she was," says Commissioner Green.
The woman, who is nine months pregnant, says she felt liquid poured on her, then heard a match strike and then she was on fire.....
Police say the possible motive for the attack is the boyfriend not wanting another child.

Chen has emerged as a political hero among Chinese dissidents and some U.S. officials for his activism in China — where his name is banned from the Internet — a status that became magnified after his escape from house arrest last month and secret flight totheU.S. Embassy. A self-taught lawyer, he had been imprisoned for years as an outspoken opponent of the state's treatment of women and its one-child policy.
Michael J. Fox, whose turn from Parkinson's disease patient to scientific crusader made him one of the country's most visible advocates for stem cell research, now believes the controversial therapy may not ultimately yield a cure for his disease, he told ABC's Diane Sawyer in an exclusive interview.
There have been "problems along the way," Fox said of stem cell studies, for which he has long advocated. Instead, he said, new drug therapies are showing real promise and are "closer today" to providing a cure for Parkinson's disease, a degenerative illness that over time causes the body to become rigid and the brain to shut down.
"Stem cells are an avenue of research that we've pursued and continue to pursue but it's part of a broad portfolio of things that we look at. There have been some issues with stem cells, some problems along the way," said Fox, who suffers from the diseases' telltale tics and tremors.
This spring the journal Economic Inquiry published a study by Joseph Sabia and Daniel Reese which found very solid evidence that pro-life parental involvement laws reduce the suicide rate for teen females. This peer-reviewed study is both methodologically rigorous and well done. Analyzing state-level suicide data from 1987 to 2003 and holding constant both state-level trends and a range of economic and demographic factors, it finds that parental involvement laws reduce the suicide rate for teen females anywhere from 11 to 21 percent. The authors argue that this is because parental involvement laws reduce the incidence of stressful life events. These include unprotected sexual intercourse, STDs, pregnancies, and abortions.
While most young, antiabortion voters see abortion as a crucial political issue, NARAL’s own internal research does not find similar passion among abortion-rights supporters.The future is prolife!
We have received a number of calls regarding how to enter security information for a baby that has not yet been born.
Crazy as it may sound, you MUST include the baby in the overall count of guests in the tour. It's an easy process.
LAST NAME: The family's last name
FIRST NAME: "Baby" as a first name
MIDDLE NAME: NMN as in No Middle Name
DOB: Use the date you are submitting the request to us as their birthday
GENDER: if the parents know put that gender down if not, you can enter either M or F as we'll ask you to update it at the time of birth.
Since Chen Guangcheng's escape, the high-profile persecution initiated by the Susong Family Planning Commission has created panic among benefiting families and their communities. Many lives are directly threatened. Government agents have announced that any family with an "illegal" birth will face a fine of 50,000 yuan ($7,700, about ten times China's annual per capita income). Any woman found to be pregnant "illegally" — without a birth permit — will face a forced abortion.
Family Planning agents have also threatened to take action against volunteers and employees of the Infant Assistance Program if they do not cooperate with the authorities by turning over all material related to the program.
In the 30 years of the brutal one-child policy, hundreds of millions of infants have been killed. This has led to serious social problems that are now obvious — not only the gender imbalance but also the aging of the general population. Regardless, the PRC government forges ahead with its notoriously inhumane policy.
Meghan spent the first two years of her life in the hospital — the first five weeks on life support. Even now, she cannot breathe without a respirator and is fed with a feeding tube.
"She cannot hold a doll, she will never go to school. Though she can't move her body, this does not mean Meghan is less of a human being. She has a soul," Salter said. "Souls can never be destroyed......"
"She knows how to love. Meghan has a heart of gold. She is a pure joy for us," Salter said. "She may not look perfect to you or to anyone else, but she is not disposable. She has tremendous value, as witnessed to all who lay their eyes on her."
Twenty-six years ago, the high school sweethearts became engaged. But Laurie delayed their marriage plans to help her mother fight cancer. She got a job in a gas station working alone at night. She felt safe because the police post was across the street.
But one night, she was raped at gunpoint. She was told she was lucky she survived the savage attack.
Traumatized, things got worse when she found out she was pregnant.
Everyone, including the police chief, told her to get an abortion and get on with her life.
But some friends disagreed and encouraged the couple to reconsider.
"In our hearts, we knew it was wrong," Laurie said. "But we weren't in any condition to raise a child. My rights were violated but it would be wrong to violate the rights of an innocent, unborn child. We chose adoption."
