On May 6 the Los Angeles Times published one of the most devastating [for me, not the writer] columns that I have seen in quite a while.

I frequently recall Father Paul Marx telling audiences that abortion was but the tip of the proverbial iceberg.

To say that this past weekend’s headlines were a bit disturbing to those of us who know that every act of abortion murders a child is an understatement. Try flabbergaste–at least, that is how I feel.

I have read a great deal about Cynthia Tureman’s act of drowning her newborn baby. It has been reported that the child reached her arms out to her mother, but Tureman did not reach back.

A 17-year-old girl known as Miss D is at the center of a pro-abortion campaign at the moment. This young woman is with child, and she has been told that her baby has a very serious brain deformity known as anencephaly and that the child will not live longer than three days outside the womb.

When I heard that Hillary Clinton was headlining a fundraiser in Illinois for the Mercy Home for Boys and Girls, the shock and horror of it irritated me, then it made me angry and then it disgusted me. That is where I am right now — totally disgusted.

Recent reports from Connecticut and Wisconsin leave us wondering what in the world is going on in the world of “Catholic” health care.

I have been quite disturbed by the news headlines of the past week. Perhaps you did not know it, but in addition to the Connecticut bishops and their amazing ability to back down on the subject of using the morning after pill (chemical abortion pill) to treat victims of sexual assault, the Wisconsin bishops are doing the same thing.
