Priest conducts Catholic service to name 45 aborted babies found in Gosnell clinic
A Catholic priest presided over a service Thursday to give proper names to the 45 babies whose bodies were found in the West Philadelphia abortion clinic of Dr. Kermit Gosnell. He is charged with killing five people - a patient and four viable babies that prosecutors say were born alive. He has also been charged with performing late-term abortions that violate Pennsylvania’s 24-week limit on the procedure.

Gosnell ‘Story’ Not New, Babies Born Alive Left to Die for Years
Following the decriminalization of abortion by Roe v. Wade in 1973, the brutality of abortion and the unsanitary conditions of abortion clinics have remained suppressed by the media. In fact, pro-life activist Nancy Creger says that what Kermit Gosnell has been doing at his clinic in Philadelphia, had been happening for years elsewhere.

Barbarism in Philadelphia
The crimes of Kermit Gosnell
Prosecutors are seeking the death penalty for abortionist Kermit Gosnell, who is on trial in Philadelphia for doping one patient to death and killing seven fetuses born alive. He doubtless seems a worthy candidate for death row. Dr. Gosnell, after all, is a monster. Yet his barbarity never required him to venture much beyond the expansive abortion rights created by Roe v. Wade and its companion 1973 Supreme Court decision, Doe v. Bolton. Dr. Gosnell, indeed, could argue that he had a constitutional right to slaughter his very young victims. If instead we insist Kermit Gosnell should die, then perhaps we must reexamine Roe and Doe.
Dr. Gosnell was a merciless killer, willing to perform abortions at any stage of pregnancy. He routinely induced labor in women more than six months pregnant and then cut the spines of their breathing newborns. This was Gosnell’s “standard procedure,” according to the grand jury report. “These killings became so routine,” in fact, “that no one could put an exact number on them.”
Left ‘made a decision’ to not cover trial of abortionist/serial killer suspect
Since late last week, a consensus has emerged: The national media has in large part ignored the trial of 72-year-old abortion provider Kermit Gosnell. Much less agreement, however, hovers over the question of why. Cameras aren’t allowed in the Gosnell courtroom, goes one theory. The details of the proceedings are too grisly for family-oriented media outlets, goes another prominent theory. Lefty media bias, goes yet another.

Online Furor Draws Press to Abortion Doctor’s Trial
Through four weeks, prosecutors have laid out evidence against Dr. Kermit Gosnell, a Philadelphia abortion provider on trial on charges of killing seven viable fetuses by “snipping” their necks with scissors and of causing the death of a pregnant 41-year-old woman during a procedure.
The grisly details drew mainly local attention. But after an online furor that the case was being ignored by the national news media because of troubling accounts of late-term abortions, reporters from major newspapers and television networks descended Monday on the Court of Common Pleas. It was the latest example of the power of social media to drive a wide debate, similar to the attention paid to a rape trial last month in Steubenville, Ohio, that resulted in the conviction of two teenage football players.

AG Eric Holder’s wife co-owns abortion clinic building run by indicted abortionist
Thanks to pro-lifers Michelle Wolven and Catherine Davis, a small group of us have been on this story for weeks.
While Michelle and Catherine were digging through online records of Georgia abortion clinics, they stumbled on the fact that Attorney General Eric Holder’s wife Sharon Malone Holder (both pictured right) co-owns with her sister an Atlanta area abortion clinic building.
The building is located at 6210 Old National Highway, College Park, Georgia.
The business itself is called Old National GYN.

The One Thing The Media Isn’t Telling You About The Blind Chinese Activist
He’s Pro-Life.
Obviously the story of Chen Guangcheng, a blind activist who fears for his life at the hands of China’s government is compelling.
–SNIP– But in a nearly 1,900 word article about Guangcheng, the Washington Post reporters never tell readers exactly what Guangcheng protests about the Chinese state.
In another enormous article from the New York Times, the crux of his opposition to the Chinese government isn’t mentioned until paragraph 19.
–SNIP– But what is his activism all about?
These articles constantly use terms like “human rights dissident” or “advocate for the disabled” to describe him. But that doesn’t really tell you anything.
The truth is: Guangcheng is an anti-abortion activist. His main opposition to the Chinese government is its “one-child policy” and its forced sterilizations.

Romney Family, a Reproductive Disaster. Sandra Fluke, a Reproductive Success Story
This is what happens when women are denied reproductive justice. Male oppression results in female victims giving birth to internal parasites. Without government-funded contraception this could happen to you, too!

Pro-Life Speaker TONIGHT at Marquette University
Abortion Debate: Pro-Choice Arguments Ditched by Liberal Professor
College Republicans to Leave Empty Podium
Milwaukee, WI — The College Republicans at Marquette University attempted to bring an honest to debate to campus on Abortion. The club organized Pro-Life University of North Carolina - Wilmington Criminology Professor Mike Adams to face off against Pro-Choice Marquette University Theology Professor Dan Maguire. That was in September, by the time February rolled around Dr. Maguire had a change of heart. The ultra-liberal professor cancelled his appearance at the debate. He cited Adams’ lack of Theology background to combat Maguire’s theological arguments.
The College Republicans in co-sponsorship with Young American’s for Freedom - Marquette, the Student Government Activity Fee, and Young America’s Foundation will still host Mike Adams on Thursday, March 1st at 7pm in the Alumni Memorial Union for a discussion on his Pro-Life views.
“To signify the late term abortion of the debate, we will have an empty podium. This will signify Dr. Maguire’s abandonment of his students,” said event organizer Maggie Gervase. “We tried to host an event that students would be attracted to. Instead, liberal Maguire wanted to have a theological only debate which would likely bore the vast majority of students.”
There is still space for the event with Mike Adams. The public is invited and encouraged to attend. Adams will present for about a half hour before opening the floor to question and answer.
For more information about Wednesday’s event or the College Republicans please contact marquettecrs@gmail.com or call (920) 474-MUCR(6827).

The debate was to be funded in part by the Marquette University Student Government Activity Fee and Young America’s Foundation.
