from the article:

““We were told yesterday by Speaker Boehner’s office that this is the most pro-life Congress that has ever been installed,” challenged Troy Newman, president of Operation Rescue, a Christian pro-life organization.

“And yet a ban on late-term abortions, which the vast majority of Americans believe should be passed immediately, this bill has languished in the House, in the so-called most pro-life House in the last 70 years, it has languished for three months,” he said.

“We’re here to sacrifice just a little bit of freedom to stand in solidarity with these children, and to help Speaker Boehner grow a spine,” Newman said.”

The House Republican leadership shelved the bill less than 24 hours before it was set to come up for a vote on Jan. 22 after some Republican congresswomen, led by Rep. Renee Ellmers (R-N.C.) and Rep. Jackie Walorski (R-Ind.), objected to the the rape and incest exception in the bill,

I was just so frustrated and disgusted with our Republican House leadership

Sadly, the Republican House "leadership" isn't "ours". It belongs only to crony capitalists, frauds, phonies and baby killers.

Jill Stanek is a brave woman, and so are all the others who prayed with her.

Capitol Police are very nasty...like the STASI.
