TUE, AUG 31 -- Pro-life signs seized again at Planned Parenthood on Tuesday, August 24 by Boston Inspectional Services Division. Sidewalk signs for businesses on both sides of Commonwealth Ave. were unmolested, as only pro-life signs were targeted.
A man was arrested on Saturday outside a late-term abortion facility in New Mexico after he threatened to shoot two pro-life women. A police SWAT team arrived and shut down the abortion center for two hours, preventing abortions from taking place. They cleared Boyd's clinic to search for the gun SWAT style. Everyone, including staff, had to come out with their hands up. Article in LifeNews.com

THU, AUG 26 -- Looks like Planned Parenthood, Fitchburg is now open. Christine Hanley writes: "PP in Fitchburg did not have a clinic license on August 6 - the day that they were accepting appointments. This was documented in the August 7, 2010 Sentinel and Enterprise. I filed a complaint at MA DPH, and it still seems to be in process. In the meantime, PP Fitchburg was licensed on August 18, and they had paper sign on the door - Tuesday 9-7 and Friday 9-4PM."

FRI, AUG 13 -- Late report: One week ago two women came out of the Planned Parenthood abortion mill and one of them, in tears, told Clare, a sidewalk counselor, "I could not do it" -- perhaps due to the ultrasound image she had seen (# 46).
The Haverhill Gazette covered our Face the Truth Tour visit there yesterday. Comment by pro-abortion passerby: "They're not screaming and yelling," she said. "The silence is telling. I'm impressed with how peaceful and organized they are." [!!]
Tea Party quotes in USAToday, Aug. 13:
"We don't get involved in the abortion issue, the gay-marriage issue, because we feel like that's when it starts dividing people," says Nita Thomas, leader of a [Tea Party] group in Cincinnati.
Melanie Morgan, 53, of San Francisco, is a former radio talk show host who has been working with the Tea Party Express, a California-based group.
"I would define the Tea Party movement as a fiscal movement. This is not a movement based on social issues. Many conservatives are involved only because of the fiscal aspect of smaller government, of lower taxation . . . These are the issues that motivate us, that animate us. We're not talking abortion and we are not discussing gay marriage or anything that even comes close to approximating those issues."
WED, AUG 11 -- Two sisters were heading into Planned Parenthood this morning and were told, "We can help." "How can you help?" asked one of the sisters. So, in they went, but the non-client sister came out and talked with Mary, our sidewalk counselor. She then agreed to go back into the clinic and talk with the sister. Finally, approaching noon, they came out and agreed to go to A Woman's Concern. After the ultrasound the sisters was all smiles. All indications are that the baby will not be killed (# 45).
Abortionist LeRoy Carhart was interviewed in Boston in early July, prior to Carhart speaking to a NOW conference. Carhart specializes in taking the lives of highly developed unborn children at a point where even hardened abortionists blanche.
The interview with Deborah Becker is on radio station WBUR (www.wbur.org/2010/07/02/now-abortion-doctor). To her credit Becker continually returned to the question of "late-term" abortions, an imprecise term used employed by abortionists for their own purposes which both annoyed Tiller and which he defined for his purposes as 22 to 24 weeks.
Becker begins by asking why does he perform these abortions? Tiller's Horatio-at-the-gate response is, "Someone has to do it"; it's "part of mainstream medicine." Read rest of article.
FRI, AUG 6 -- Howard and Joe were both holding their signs outside of Women's Health Services in Brookline this morning. They didn't see it coming -- from up the sidewalk came a woman, 50-something, heavy-set. Suddenly she started shrieking hysterically at Howard and Joe, mad with rage. She grabbed at one of the signs -- "Take away those signs!! They're hurting me!!" Very abruptly, she turned and strode away down the sidewalk. On a related matter, Rev. Thomas J. Euteneuer, President of Human Life International has just written a pair of books on abortion and exorcism.
Report on Opening Day protest in Fitchburg from Christine Hanley:
Thank you for all the prayers offered up for the protest today, and, of course, thank you to everyone that came. We had a very good turnout. There were circa 20 people at many times, with an ebb and flow. Many people had been asking for more prayer at the protests and we did that throughout. Father Bruso led us in prayer, and appropriate to our new mission, reminded us to be kind and Christian to the workers. Father Bruso's presence meant a lot to all of us. Thank you, Father Bruso.
Somewhat mysterious was the status of PP. Our calls into PP indicated that we could make appointment for today. PP would not confirm their opening date to the newspapers. There was a security guard (state policeman?) that escorted 2 women to and from the parking lot. I witnessed one woman, who was accompanied by her young son, talking to the guard, telling him that she was there for her 1:30 PM appointment. He would not let her enter.
In any case, as PP is more than evasive in Fitchburg, the day of prayer and protest for their opening went very well.
WED, AUG 4 -- Planned Parenthood to open "Express" facility in Fitchburg on Friday, August 6.
PROTEST for Planned Parenthood Opening Day
Location: 391 Main Street, Fitchburg, MA
Time: 1- 6 PM on Friday, August 6 RAIN or SHINE

The Fitchburg-Leominster MCFL chapter will be running coverage for all hours of the first opened day of PP.
Boston's Inspectional Services Division was back again last week, threatening to remove pro-lifers' signs set up in front of Planned Parenthood. Neighboring businesses still display their signs undisturbed on the sidewalk.
Another attempted sign theft, on the same day, was by a pedestrian -- but fast action by a pro-lifer retrieved the sign from the thief.
MassResistance reports that a number of bad bills failed just prior to the end of the legislative session on July 31.
Transgender bill. Despite the fact that over half the Legislature were co-sponsors -- supposedly guaranteeing passage -- and that it was the declared number-one priority of the homosexual lobby, the Transgender Rights and Hate Crimes bill (H1728) never made it out of committee. We chalk that up to the full court press by MassResistance and other pro-family groups exposing the horrors of this extremely radical legislation. In particular, hats off to Amy Contrada for her foresight in spotting it early on, and her 125-page detailed analysis of this extensive bill, which gave us the tools to confront it, describe it, and stop it.
Other bad "culture war" bills: Three other bills that failed in the final days are bills to legalize physician assisted suicide (H1468), remove parental consent on abortions for minors (H1746) and repeal the sodomy ban and other morality laws (H3536 and S1656). These were still alive in the Judiciary Committee, but MassResistance was on top of them right up to the end!

Media plots: According to records obtained by The Daily Caller, at several points during the 2008 presidential campaign a group of liberal journalists took radical steps to protect their favored candidate. Employees of news organizations including Time, Politico, the Huffington Post, the Baltimore Sun, the Guardian, Salon and the New Republic participated in outpourings of anger over how Obama had been treated in the media, and in some cases plotted to fix the damage.

WBZ Radio and TV gave CJ some extensive air time on this, and the Wall Street Journal has a favorable article. CatholicCulture.org (Phil Lawler) also commented.
Homeland Security's van was parked down the street from Planned Parenthood today. Why? It can't be us they are keeping track of, can it??
FRI, JUL 2 -- Located: abortionist Marcus Gordon, who moved out of his Methuen abortion mill, has relocated to Haverhill -- 288 Groveland Street, to be exact. Pro-lifers who picketed his Methuen location will be relocating there.
WED, JUN 30 -- Ed, one of our sidewalk counselors, talked to a couple before and after they went into Planned Parenthood this morning, finally seeing them change their mind about their scheduled abortion. [Apparently, seeing the ultrasound image in P.P. had something to do with it.] They said they would go to A Woman's Concern. That's baby # 40 as we have now finished half a year.
Planned Parenthood (Boston) and Women's Hell-th Services, Brookline are both OPEN on Saturday, July 3.
Marcus Gordon, Abortionist -- He evidently has moved out of his Methuen facility to a new address in Haverhill. A couple of spies are checking that out. More later . . .
FRI, JUN 25 -- We're entering the summer vacation season, and conservatives continue feeling confident that an electoral wave is going to wash over the opposition come November.

As Eleanor told them about alternatives to abortion, the man said, "I'm against abortion." But unsurprisingly, they did indeed have an appointment at Planned Parenthood. But fortunately, Eleanor was able to prevail upon them to go to A Woman's Concern. That's # 39.

As Solicitor General, she argued in favor of muzzling advocacy groups like right to life groups. Again, the Supreme Court judges rejected her reasoning.
Kagan is hardcore pro-abortion. She is on record taking positions that are pro-Partial Birth Abortion and pro-Physician Assisted Suicide.
Please call Senator Scott Brown and tell him to oppose Kagan's appointment to the Supreme Court: 202-224-4543.

Planned Parenthood's missing millions: Planned Parenthood Federation of America's (PPFA) audits show the organization spent just $657.1 million between 2002 and 2008 from federal government grants and programs, but the abortion behemoth's own annual reports show that it took in $2.3 billion from government grants and programs during the same time period. (Washington Times)
The truth is that social and fiscal issues are locked in a political and financial embrace that cannot be pried apart.

| FROM MASS. RESISTANCE: Rainbow flag raised over Boston City Hall by politicians, city officials, and homosexual activists to celebrate “Gay Pride Week.” — ten truly hideous days of in-your-face perverted activities in Boston. It was officially kicked off on Friday, June 4 at noon — in an official ceremony — as a huge homosexual flag was raised over Boston City Hall, next to the US Flag and Massachusetts Flag. It will stay there until next week! |
| |
This weird event was sponsored by Boston Mayor Thomas Menino [Catholic Charities' "Man of the Year"], and featured a speech by Boston City Council President Michael Ross, flanked by other City Councilors along with other city officials. Also speaking were various radical homosexual activists. They all spoke on the common theme that the homosexual movement is going to be fighting even louder and harder to push their agenda throughout society. From what we saw, there is no question that the Boston political establishment is marching in lockstep with them.
And it gets even worse.
At the center of all the festivities — as Grand Marshall of the Gay Pride Parade — is “Grace” Sterling Stowell. Stowell is a man who dresses as a woman and runs a homosexual / transgender “youth” organization, BAGLY. As a member of the tax-funded Massachusetts Commission for Gay Lesbian Bisexual and Transgender Youth, he goes to public schools across the state!! At the flag-raising ceremony, Stowell spoke about the “need” to keep kids involved with the homosexual and transgender movement!
But what was truly scary is the degree to which so many powerful politicians are wholeheartedly and energetically supporting this, and are willing to use their power to help advance the agenda. One almost feels embarrassed for them. Do they actually believe this nonsense? Or have they just sold out?
And forget about the media on this.
And as usual, all the public depravity of “Pride Week” will be officially ignored in all the media. No one will be exposing this or even talking about it. Even the so-called “conservative” talk show hosts on the big local talk stations — forget about it. They don't want to go there. They’d rather be at Tea Parties talking about taxes. It’s a lot safer than tackling this stuff. |
The Republican Party’s candidate for Lt. Governor gives his support for the week's events, even advertising in the program!
This weekend a swarm of politicians from Gov. Deval Patrick on down and major prominent corporations march in (and sponsor) the “Gay Pride Parade.”

SUN, JUN 6 -- A couple left Women's Health Services Friday morning after sitting in the parking lot for a half-hour or more. They never went in to the abortion facility, nor did we see them come back. A little speculative, but we're going to count this as # 31.

SAT, MAY 29 -- This quote came from the Czech Republic.
"The danger to America is not Barack Obama but a citizenry capable of entrusting a man like him with the Presidency. It will be far easier to limit and undo the follies of an Obama presidency than to restore the necessary common sense and good judgment to a depraved electorate willing to have such a man for their president. The problem is much deeper and far more serious than Mr. Obama, who is a mere symptom of what ails America. Blaming the prince of the fools should not blind anyone to the vast confederacy of fools that made him their prince. The Republic can survive a Barack Obama, who is, after all, merely a fool. It is less likely to survive a multitude of fools such as those who made him their president."

MON, MAY 3 -- There's some room for doubt, but we're calling this one # 26. A couple arrived on Monday morning at Women's Health Services in Brookline and walked to the abortion facility door. Jean, a sidewalk counselor, called out from beyond the buffer zone line, "If you're pregnant, your baby's heart is beating!" The woman abruptly turned around and walked across the parking lot and got back into the SUV. The male companion joined her. They apparently talked for some time afterward, and the man got out and walked around to the vehicle's passenger side three times. After 20 minutes of talking, they drove away! (# 26) They never went back into the abortion mill.

Thank you Jesus...
A couple.. man black.. woman white and blonde. .. a very unlikely couple.. nevertheless, they came to P.P... arguing. Woman then left man behind and walked several steps ahead of him into the Clinic.
Gave it our best shot ! and less than a half hour later.. the couple walked back out.. hand and hand.. smiling and happy. Asked if the needed any help..and the couple said.. they were all set! [# 24]
P.S.: Mothers are still bringing their daughters to the Clinic... this I will never understand ! How can you fight a Mother... one who is suppose to protect and give truth to their daughters... who does the child then listen to? The mother, of course. It is the most difficult of dilemmas!

Whatever is in the bill is an intermediate stage: As the graph posted earlier shows, the governmentalization of health care will accelerate, private insurers will no longer be free to be "insurers" in any meaningful sense of that term (i.e., evaluators of risk), and once that's clear we'll be on the fast track to Obama's desired destination of single payer as a fait accomplis.

TUE, FEB 9 -- Women's Hell-th Services opens: Globe covers us at 111 Harvard St.
A letter to the Globe reporter who wrote the article linked above:
Hello, Mr. Parker,
I read your February 9th article, "Abortion Protesters Show Up ...
"You focused on complaints that the protesters' signs and graphic images scare young children. You failed to inquire as to what, exactly, it is about such signs and images that might be frightening.
Children, in seeing things without the filter of preconceptions that adults almost inevitably accrete, can at times be more perceptive than adults are. Those signs and images ought to scare, not only children, but any decent person; that is their intended purpose. It is ridiculous to admit that a sign or an image is upsetting, without acknowledging that the reality it depicts is far more upsetting than is the mere image of that reality. But if there is nothing wrong with pregnant women hiring someone to kill their preborn children, why should an image of a killed preborn child be upsetting?
You wrote the superficial story, but ignored the underlying reality. -- David Rydholm
The Puppet Masters: George Soros and the Obama Administration -- The meteoric rise of Barack Obama to the pinnacle of political power despite his woeful lack of leadership experience, lends credence to someone pulling strings like a puppeteer.
