The number of chemical abortions is on the rise and will continue to rise.

Did you know that . . .

• more than one drug is used in the chemical abortion protocol?
• providers of these drugs have been known to MISUSE or ABUSE these drugs  by advising patients to insert the pills vaginally?
• these drugs are manufactured in CHINA?
• Planned Parenthood claims that “only 2 out of 100 patients require a surgical abortion” due to drug failure?

PP names this an incomplete abortion.  But as usual will not use the word “baby.”

An “incomplete abortion” as defined by Planned Parenthood’s Glossary, means that some of the “pregnancy tissue” — the growing baby — remains in the uterus.

SEPSIS:  THE CAUSE FOR ALARM

Sepsis has caused the death of pregnant girls and women using these drugs.  The cause?  Deadly “Super Bugs,” bacteria that cannot be treated with known antibiotics.  We’ve provided links (below) to ongoing reports by the Food and Drug Administration  (FDA).

Despite these warnings, Planned Parenthood is stepping up its marketing of this alternative to “surgical abortion.”  The new PP on NE Martin Luther King, Jr. Blvd. only offers chemical abortions – for now.

CEO David Greenberg has gone on record to state that their new location would offer a “state-of-the-art Surgicenter designed to increase access to abortion care in anticipation of continuing political challenges.”—-2005-06  Annual Report, Planned Parenthood Columbia Willamette.

ABORTION DRUGS GLOSSARY

Pro-Life Action of Oregon urges all activists in the Pro-Life Movement to become familiar with the terminology of chemical abortions. Here are the various terms used for it:

• Medical Abortion
• Chemical Abortion
• The Abortion Pill
• RU-486 (this term is being phased out)
• Mifeprex (brand name)
• Mifepristone (generic)
• Misoprostol – taken after Mifepristone
• Incomplete Chemical Abortion – the growing baby remains in the uterus of the mother and requires a surgical abortion

MEDICAL ABORTION REGIMEN – According to the FDA, the approved Mifeprex regimen for a medical abortion through 49 day’s pregnancy is:

• Day One:  Mifeprex Administration: 3 tablets of 200 mg of Mifeprex orally at once
• Day Three:  Misoprostol Administration: 2 tablets of 200 mcg of misoprostol orally at once
• Day 14:   Post-Treatment:   The patient must return to confirm that a complete termination has occurred.  If not, surgical termination is recommended to manage medical abortion treatment failures.

The FDA continues to track adverse events, i.e., deaths, caused by the drugs.

‘Girl Scouts Distribute Planned Parenthood Sex Guide at U.N. Meeting’

By Terrence McKeegan, J.D.

(NEW YORK – C-FAM)  The World Association of Girl Scouts and Girl Guides hosted a no-adults-welcome panel at the United Nations this week where Planned Parenthood was allowed to distribute a  brochure entitled “Healthy, Happy and Hot.” The event was part of the annual United Nations Commission on the Status of Women (CSW) which concludes this week.

The brochure, aimed at young people living with HIV, contains explicit and graphic details on sex, as well as the promotion of casual sex in many forms.  The brochure claims, “Many people think sex is just about vaginal or anal intercourse… But, there are lots of different ways to have sex and lots of different types of sex. There is no right or wrong way to have sex. Just have fun, explore and be yourself!”

Also at CSW last week, the heads of various powerful UN agencies . . . released a . . . the “UN Adolescent Girls Task Force,” which calls for their agencies to promote and support programs “that empower … adolescent girls, particularly those aged 10 to 14 years”  . . . ensuring access to “life skills-based sexuality education, HIV prevention, and sexual and reproductive health.”

Pro-Life Action of Oregon has looked into how girls can earn the Girls Scouts U.S.A. Patch called “Our Rights and Responsibilities” Patch - which page links to the U.K. “Tag” site.  A Tag is a campaign for Girl Scouts to become involved in.

One such Tag is called the UNITE AGAINST AIDS Campaign.  Girl Scouts are instructed to “organize a Red Ribbon party” to raise awareness about HIV.

Sample Activities for Girl Scouts Red Ribbon Party:

First you have to decide on a name for your event:  it could simply be ‘Red Party’ or if your event involves lots of music it could be ‘Singing for Sex’ …

You could do a cake sale – check out our condom cake recipe! Make sure when selling that your punters know the condoms are not edible - this could be messy! ‘A fun way to bring sexual protection to the masses at the same time as raising funds.’  Make a slit in the [cup] cakes and put in the condom.

Condom Cupcakes for Girl Scouts

Red Ribbon Education is a UNICEF project.  Their “Exploring HIV, AIDS, and Sexual Health:  A Peer Education and Action Pack” - in pdf.

The Red Ribbon education pack can be used by peer educators, youth workers and teachers.  It is designed to get your group thinking about and taking action on HIV and sexual health. The activities are designed for use with young people aged around 14-18 years but you can adapt them to make them relevant to your particular group.

This is 33 pages of lessons plans which include role playing.  Role playing in group settings began in the context of therapy groups.  Dr. Carl Rogers popularized “therapy for normals” in the 1960’s and schools haven’t been the same since.  Now, children are encouraged to role play in sex “training” classes and it’s very dangerous!  It leads innocent children right into the arms of child predators.

Washington, D.C. (09 March 2010) – Leaders representing the majority position of Americans are lining up to endorse an initiative that could reignite the pro-life movement to embrace a different way of looking at abortion and other threats against human beings’ lives.

It’s about the human rights of every human being.

That’s the message of the personhood movement and the California Human Rights Amendment led by black pastor and civil rights icon Rev. Walter Hoye.

Organizers have captured the same momentum that followed the California marriage amendment campaign to create a groundswell of support for the personhood amendment.

Obama Told at Health Care Summit Americans Don’t Want Abortion

Washington, DC — It took almost the entire length of the debate
at the White House health care summit for the issue of abortion
to come up and, when it did, pro-life Rep. John Boehner told
President Barack Obama that Americans don’t want abortion funding
in the health care bill Congress is considering.

In an earlier post, we urged parents to read ‘You’re Teaching My Child WHAT? A physician exposes the lies of sex ed and they harm your child’ by Miriam Grossman, M.D.

TALK BY DR. MIRIAM GROSSMAN on VIDEO. 52 minutes.

If you think sex education is still about the birds and the bees, think again.  As Dr. Miriam Grossman explains in her new book, it’s not about science either.  Today’s sex ed programs serve to perpetuate liberal lies and politically correct propaganda that promoting the illusion that children can be sexually free without risk.  Dr. Grossman cites example after example of schools and organizations whitewashing – or omitting altogether – crucial information that doesn’t accord with their politically correct agenda.  Instead, sex educators only tell teens the “facts of life” that promote acceptance, sexual exploration, and experimentation.  What sex educators call an education, scientists would call a scam.  In You’re Teaching My Child What?, Dr. Grossman reveals biological truths that you won’t find in today’s classrooms.  You’re Teaching My Child What? is critical reading for parents with teens and a vital resource for teaching children the truth about sex.

Miriam Grossman, M.D., is a board-certified child, adolescent, and adult psychiatrist who began You’re Teaching My Child What? as a Senior Fellow at the Clare Boothe Luce Policy Institute.  She is a contributing columnist at Townhall.com and speaks to parents, students, educators, and health professionals internationally on the dangers of both political correctness and incorrect science in her profession.

Washington D.C., Feb 17, 2010 / 08:08 am (CNA).- Day Gardner of the National Black Pro-Life Union has said that during Black History Month Americans should acknowledge abortion’s disproportionate impact on blacks and should see abortion advocacy as a form of “ethnic cleansing” that targets the black community. “Abortion providers are still being located for the most part in black neighborhoods and are still delivering the same old message,” Gardner said, claiming their message is that black, poor urban children are “not worthy of life” and that America would “be a better place without black people.”

Writing in a Tuesday commentary, she recounted the history of black oppression at the hands of groups like the Ku Klux Klan (KKK).

“The Klan’s aim was to prevent African-Americans from voting, getting an education, competing for jobs and owning property,” she explained.

While the KKK conducted a “lynching war” on blacks in the American South, Gardner charged that Planned Parenthood founder Margaret Sanger and her allies were devising an “evil plan” to enforce what Sanger called “race hygiene.”

In a 1922 book the birth control activist called for the elimination of “human weeds,” the segregation of “morons, misfits and maladjusted” and for the sterilization of “genetically inferior races.” According to Gardner, Sanger associated with known racists and was the guest speaker at a Ku Klux Klan rally in Silverlake, New Jersey in 1926.

In 1939, Sanger launched the Negro Project. Gardner claimed this effort planned to “get rid of black people” by limiting their population growth with abortion and sterilization. She also charged that Sanger sought to use the clergy and charismatic members of the black community to advance her cause in a form of “ethnic cleansing.”

Gardner cited Sanger’s letter to Dr. Clarence Gamble in which she wrote:

“The most successful educational approach to the Negro is through a religious appeal. We don’t want the word to go out that we want to exterminate the Negro population. And the minister is the man who can straighten out that idea if it ever occurs to any of their more rebellious members.”

The organization Sanger founded, Planned Parenthood, makes money by “killing children – especially black children,” Gardner charged. While the KKK killed about 3,500 people since its beginnings in 1865, Planned Parenthood is responsible for “more than 17 million black deaths since 1973.”

When Bishops Do The Right Thing by Rev. Thomas Euteneuer, President, Human Life International

The point of contention that the good bishop had with the St. Charles Hospital in Bend, OR was the hospital’s practice of surgical sterilization. Apparently the Board of Directors thought that the Church’s clear prohibition of this practice was, uh, optional. So after a fair and timely investigation, the bishop could not convince the hospital administration to change practices and simply yanked the Catholic name and insignia from the building with the exception of the cross on top to remind them of their failure to live up to the challenge of the Cross. Can’t you hear the bishop wince when the president of the healthcare chain, James Diegel, said that the hospital had “an obligation to provide comprehensive health care services to our patients while remaining true to our values of compassion and caring for all”? This sounds like slimy Planned Parenthood language if you ask me.

There are just a handful of bishops in the technologically-sophisticated western world, however, who exhibit the resolute moral courage that is required to remove the title of “Catholic” from an institution that is in rebellion against the authentic Faith; even fewer who have the guts to discipline a public figure who betrays the Faith in favor of his own leftist values. (Vice President Joe Biden, by the way, appeared in public on Wednesday with ashes on his forehead….) Yet, there is a growing trend in the United States toward greater episcopal strength and orthodoxy, and we have to applaud it when we see it because these bishops will be severely attacked and will need our support.

Hospital Decided It Could Not Meet The Catholic Standard by Bishop Robert Vasa, The Catholic Sentinel.

BEND — In the course of the past several weeks I have focused on what it means for individuals and institutions to be Catholic. I have done this, in part, because of a concern about Catholic colleges and hospitals in general but also, in part, because of very specific discussions I have been having with the administration of St. Charles Medical Center, a Catholic health care institution, in Bend. Over the course of the past several years I have struggled with the difficulty of trying to reconcile some practices ongoing at the medical center with clear Church teaching.

‘YOU’RE TEACHING MY CHILD WHAT? A Physician Exposes the Lies of Sex Education and How They Harm Your Child’ by Dr. Miriam Grossman

A new report by the International Planned Parenthood Federation is advocating that children as young as 10 be given extensive sex education, including an awareness of sex’s pleasures. The report, “Stand and Deliver,” charges that religious groups, specifically Catholics and Muslims, deny their young access to comprehensive sexual programs and education.
