Moral Outcry

This is just wild:

You may call it a miracle - a baby saved his mother's life before he was even born just by kicking in the womb only to alert doctors of a tumour inside.

Mother-to-be 26-year-old Claire feared she was losing him 18 weeks into the pregnancy. But, doctors discovered the "miscarriage" was actually a tumour of the womb -- which her unborn son had kicked free, the 'News of the World' reported.

Congressman Chris Smith, who has led the pro-life battles in the House of Representatives for decades, will receive the Wilberforce Leadership Award on Thursday from Students for Life of America. The award will be presented at SFLA's third annual Summer Social in Washington.

“Congressman Chris Smith has been a key leader within the pro-life movement and has lead many efforts to protect the unborn across the country," SFLA director Kristan Hawkins told LifeNews.com on Monday.

"It is because of his leadership that SFLA is proud to present Congressman Smith with the first Wilberforce Leadership Award," she said.

“I can think of no one more deserving of the award than Smith. He is a true champion for Life in Congress. Smith was a tireless leader in the fight against abortion funding in President Obama’s health care plan," she added.

William Wilberforce was a member of the British Parliament who lead the abolition movement in Britain. Wilberforce worked for 26 years in Parliament to abolish the slave trade and finally passed the Slave Trade Act in 1807, abolishing slave trade within the British Empire.

...Massachusetts is working hard to find a way around our Constitution:

The Massachusetts Legislature has approved a new law intended to bypass the Electoral College system and ensure that the winner of the presidential election is determined by the national popular vote.

“What we are submitting is the idea that the president should be selected by the majority of people in the United States of America,” Senator James B. Eldridge, an Acton Democrat, said before the Senate voted to enact the bill.

Under the new bill, he said, “Every vote will be of the same weight across the country.”

But Senate minority leader Richard Tisei said the state was meddling with a system that was “tried and true” since the founding of the country.

“We’ve had a lot of bad ideas come through this chamber over the years, but this is going to be one of the worst ideas that has surfaced and actually garnered some support,” said Tisei, who is also the Republican candidate for lieutenant governor.

What would happen if a conservative supreme court justice were to retire? Jeff Greenfield of CBS news tackles that "possible" scenario. Honestly, if this doesn't get you to the voting booths come November, not much will.

We don't need no stinkin' hearings: The recess appointment of rationing advocate Donald Berwick, to become the director of the Center for Medicare and Medicaid Services, is so important that Congress has decided to hold hearings refused to hold hearings.

Women who rejected the “choice” to abort their babies will be bringing their children to Washington D.C. this week to tell Congress how thankful they are for the life-saving work of pregnancy help centers.

"The real problem isn’t unwanted children, but unwanting adults."

For as much as the pro-abortion side wants the public to think abortion is a perfectly normal procedure with little to no adverse side effects or consequences they simply cannot get away from stories like this:

In September 2008 (aged 17) I got an IUD because I got fed up with having to take the pill in secret daily (my parents didn’t know I was sexually active). In September 2009 (aged 18) my period was late and so I took a pregnancy test and found that I was 5 weeks pregnant. I went to my local sexual health clinic and they confirmed that I was pregnant and asked me what I would like to do. I decided to have an abortion as I feared that my family would disown me and also I had always said I didn’t want to have any children. Furthermore, I barely had enough money to support myself, never-mind myself and a baby. I felt like an abortion was my only choice. My partner said he would support me no matter what I decided to do.
