Follow the Money Is NARAL's attack on John Roberts about abortion rights or abortion profits?
The Wall Street Journal ^ | 8/10/2005 | MANUEL MIRANDA

Posted on 08/10/2005 6:05:50 AM PDT by SpinyNorman

From the indignation of his defenders, it seems the Battle of John Roberts might have begun in earnest this week. On Monday, NARAL Pro-Choice America launched a major ad campaign that aims to scare a small portion of America, then raise more money to scare the rest. NARAL will spend $500,000 to frighten cable news watchers and the people of Maine and Rhode Island, home to three liberal Republican senators. The 30-second ad is titled "Speaking Out." Here's the script:

This article says it all: NARAL employs Josef Goebbels propaganda techniques to its assault on the Roberts nomination.

Don't miss the great quote from Orrin Hatch and the response from the abortion enthusiasts towards the end!!

They even admit it is a lie, counting on the MSM not to report it, or do so in a lukewarm fashion. I have to admit though, NBC Nightly News reported that the commercial was both deceptive and untrue.

NARAL and Planned Parenthood are in it for the money. Their protests about the "rights of the mother" would be more sincere if they did the abortions for free.

That will happen when monkeys fly out of my ass!

It has been obvious for a very, very long time, that the major proponents of abortion are those who make MONEY from it, it has never been about a "woman's right to choose" it has been about MONEY, money for the abortionists and for their political allies in campaign contributions.

Just catching on? well, better late than never.

I have often wondered when a "Woodward and Bernstein" duo would do a full scale expose on the enormous amounts of money involved in this hideous procedure? That is, when is someone going to "follow the money?"

The abortionists are in no way first rate doctors, the procedure is protected (sanctioned is a better word) in ways that not even a routine tonsillectomy would be protected, there seem to be risks to patients that are totally denied by competent medical authorities, clients seem to rarely sue. In short, every rule in the book is bent, pushed or broken.

Someday, the full story will hit and it will make the tobacco cover up story pale by comparison.

New statistics show abortion-breast cancer link

Minneapolis, Aug. 10 (CWNews.com) - A British statistician has found new evidence linking abortion to breast cancer.

Speaking at the Joint Statistical Meetings in Minneapolis, Minnesota, on August 10, Patrick Carroll called attention to three different factors that show a link between abortion and breast cancer.

Carroll, the director of the Pensions and Population Research Institute in London, based his study on data from government reports. He found:

1. Upper-class women are more likely to die of breast cancer, whereas lower-class women have higher mortality rates from all other forms of cancer. Carroll attributed this disparity to the higher likelihood that upper-class women would have an abortion before giving birth for the first time, and/or would delay their first birth-- both factors that have been associated with elevated rates of breast cancer.

2. The incidence of breast cancer varies in different parts of the British isles, with the highest incidence of breast cancer in the regions where abortion rates are highest. The lowest incidence of breast cancer in the regions studied by Carroll was in Ireland, where abortion remains illegal.

3. The rates of breast cancer rose by a spectacular 70 percent rate between 1971 and 2002, as abortion become more common. Over the years, the occurrence of breast cancer among women aged 50-54 varied with the incidence of abortion among those women.

Thanks for the tip on that loathsome and hate filled cartoon! The liberals just seem to have a knack of childish, porn based humor.

The tragically humorous thing is that Planned Parenthood is based on eugenics, or racial cleansing (see below). Now when you consider that the majority of people freely partaking of the abortion enthusiast's services are liberals, and that the vast majority of minority groups have been duped into thinking that the Dems are out to help them, you have to see the self exterminating irony of the whole situation.



"Margaret Sanger. the founder of Planned Parenthood, wrote in "A Plan For Peace" that her aims were, "To give certain dysgenic groups in our population their choice of segregation [concentration camps] or sterilization". Between 2000-4000 forced sterilizations per year were taking place in the United States. The following year, when Ernst Rudin established the Nazi system for forced sterilization of those it deemed unfit to reproduce, Rassenhygiene (Race hygiene), he chose as his inspiration and model the writings of William H. Tucker, associate professor of psychology at Rutgers University, Camden, New Jersey, USA. When Rudin's forced sterilization of Jews by irradiation with X-rays was revealed, Margaret Sanger refused to denounce him."

Peter Singer, anyone?
