Catholic Bishops: We Will Not Comply With the HHS Abortion Mandate
The nation’s Catholic bishops have a message for President Barack Obama: They would rather pay fines, no matter how much they would be, before they comply with the HHS mandate that compels groups to pay for birth control and drugs that may cause abortions.
The U.S. Conference of Catholic Bishops today issued a “Special Message” at the conclusion of their fall General Assembly, November 13, in Baltimore. They unanimously passed the special message, which can only be issued as such meetings and strongly condemned the HHS mandate. http://www.lifenews.com/2013/11/13/catholic-bishops-we-will-not-comply-with-the-hhs-abortion-mandate/
Obama Drops to His Lowest Approval Rating Ever as Obamacare Scandal Explodes
With millions of Americans losing their health insurance thanks to the Obamacare health care law that pro-life groups warned would ration care, President Barack Obama is now at his lowest approval rating ever of his presidency.
American voters disapprove of the job President Barack Obama is doing by a 54-39 percentage point margin, according to a Quinnipiac University national poll that has him at his lowest marks ever. Even women disapprove 51 – 40 percent, according to the survey released today. http://www.lifenews.com/2013/11/13/obama-drops-to-his-lowest-approval-rating-ever-as-obamacare-scandal-explodes/
Obamacare Failure: Few Americans Sign Up for Pro-Abortion, Pro-Rationing Care
Only 106,185 Americans signed up for an insurance plan through the Obamacare health care law through November 2, according to numbers released today from the HHS Department. That is a far cry from the number of people the Obama administration expected to sign up by this point for health care that likely pays for abortions and may be rationed.
The Department of Health and Human Services announced that at least 500,000 Americans would enroll in October and the Congressional Budget Office estimated that seven million Americans would get insurance via Obamacare by March 31, but the numbers are way behind. http://www.lifenews.com/2013/11/13/obamacare-failure-few-americans-sign-up-for-pro-abortion-pro-rationing-care/
After His Amazing Birth in the Philippines, Tim Tebow is Helping Typhoon Victims
In 1985, the family of Tim Tebow , with four children, was living in the Philippines as missionaries. Pam Tebow contracted amoebic dysentery, likely from contaminated drinking water. She fell into a coma and received strong drugs to combat the infection.
It turned out she was pregnant with her fifth child. Those drugs caused the placenta to detach from the uterine wall, depriving the unborn baby, Tim Tebow, of oxygen. When she realized she was pregnant, doctors stopped the drugs they had given Pam but said that the high doses of medicine had already damaged Tim. http://www.lifenews.com/2013/11/13/after-his-amazing-birth-in-the-philippines-tim-tebow-is-helping-typhoon-victims/
 Finally... moral, pro-life fiction that opens hearts and minds! “This is what I was hoping would begin to spring from the Indie World. No way would NYC Corporate Publishing ever allow something with this worldview through.” - a reader. |
Obama Falsely Claims Cancellations Will Mean Better Insurance Under Obamacare
“Political language… is designed to make lies sound truthful and murder respectable, and to give an appearance of solidity to pure wind.” — George Orwell, “Politics and the English Language,” 1946
File 2330 - This was going to be a post about the importance of clarity in language and freedom of expression, full of all sorts of quotes from George Orwell, whose writing very effectively highlights the dangers of censorship and the ugliness of using euphemism to defend the indefensible. Just to be sure, I googled “George Orwell abortion”, in case he had made some wildly pro-abortion statement that I hadn’t heard of, but that could undermine the point of what I was writing. http://www.lifenews.com/2013/11/13/obama-falsely-claims-forced-cancellations-will-mean-better-insurance-plans-under-obamacare/
Baby Boy Born After Brain-Dead Mother Kept Alive Three Months
A baby has been born in Hungary after a very rare circumstance in which his brain-dead mother was kept alive for three months so he could be born. As LifeNews has previously reported, in a case out of the United States from 2005, this kind of situation has occurred previously but is far from common.
In the Hungarian case, the baby boy’s mother, who is anonymous, was also an organ donor and gave her heart, pancreas, liver and two kidneys to patients who needed them. http://www.lifenews.com/2013/11/13/baby-boy-born-after-brain-dead-mother-kept-alive-three-months/
Thousands of Obamacare Plans Will Pay for Abortions, Here are Some That Don’t
As LifeNews has reported, it’s virtually impossible to find out if any of the health care plans offered in the Obamacare exchanges pay for abortions with your tax dollars or premiums. In the 27 states that allow plans to cover elective abortion on the exchanges, most conusmers will have to spent countless hours of searching to determine which plans are abortion-free.
Today, Rep. Chris Smith, a New Jersey Republican, released information about abortion coverage in a small subset of plans called Multi-State Plans (MSPs), which are unique because their contracts are negotiated with the federal Office of Personnel Management (OPM). http://www.lifenews.com/2013/11/13/thousands-of-obamacare-plans-will-pay-for-abortions-here-are-some-that-dont/
