JUDIE BROWN COMMENTARY

Recently American Life League’s Stop Planned Parenthood program reported on a victory for all that is right and good in the world.

Isn’t it about time that everybody who can read English understand the meaning of words and get their story right when it comes to explaining how the morning after abortion pill actually works?

My good friend John Whitehead of the Rutherford Institute is a brilliant attorney who has come to see the value in pursuing statewide personhood bills in each and every state in America.

It seems that the Connecticut Catholic Bishops have circled the wagons and are now presenting arguments in defense of the decision to provide Plan B, the abortive chemical, to sexual assault victims in Catholic hospitals.

When I read the news, my first thought was, “This can’t be true!” But unfortunately, it is. The Connecticut Catholic Conference caved in to political pressure and agreed to provide the morning-after pill to victims of sexual assault when “appropriate testing” is used to determine that the victim is not already with child.

The exercise of legislation via judicial fiat has reached new levels today with the decision of the Supreme Court to decline hearing arguments in defense of religious organizations which do not want to provide contraceptives s part of the drug coverage they offer to their employees.

Well, this is really not a good way to start a Monday, but the news is what it is, so I have to share it with you.

The first time I read the news that the Connecticut Catholic Conference had decided not to oppose the use of the morning after pill for rape victims, I was positive it was a misprint. I was wrong.

I just received the current issue of Life Is Worth Living and I wish it was on line. But there is a web site and I encourage you to visit it.

My daughter was on birth control pills and only occasionally smoked (less than a pack a week). We lost her three years ago at the age of nineteen.

In Lewiston Maine, JoAn Karkos sent shock waves through the country when she stood by her decision to permanently remove copies of the book “It’s Perfectly Normal” from the library shelves.

When a federal appeals court dismissed a case involving whether abortionists had to report suspicion of sexual abuse in Kansas, my mouth dropped open even wider than it usually is due to my larger than life tone.
