Yesterday (June 18, 2013) we received an
email from our attorney, Michael DePrimo, who is leading our challenge to
the Buffer Zone Law. He wrote:
On Thursday,
June 20, the justices of the United States Supreme Court will vote whether
to grant our petition in McCullen v. Coakley, the federal lawsuit
challenging Massachusetts' 35-foot buffer zone statute. As you know, we've been
fighting this statute since 2007. This is our last opportunity for court review.
Attached is a
copy of the petition for you and anyone else to review.
I write to ask for your prayers and the prayers of all
pro-lifers on your mailing list. If our petition is granted, I'm confident the
Supreme Court will declare the statute unconstitutional, thereby freeing up the
public sidewalks in front of abortion clinics for pro-lifers in Massachusetts
and across the country.

being aortic stenosis.
WED, JUN 19
-- Judy and Evelyn were at Planned
Parenthood Saturday, and reported a "wonderful save this morning," "awesome":
a couple who entered Planned Parenthood came out a short time later (#33). "She's going to call me" for follow-up, said Judy.

President Barack Obama said it recently in Chicago, a city on track for 600
murders this year, the equivalent of two Sandy Hooks per month.
Too bad he still does not understand that his left-wing ideology is the
problem.
TEN CATHOLIC BISHOPS teamed up with a
pro-Planned Parenthood group to a release a report last week that urges
Catholic organizations to fund groups linked to the promotion of abortion
and other acts opposed by the Church.
The 28-page report, released Tuesday by the advocacy group Faith in Public
Life, targets Catholic critics of the Catholic Campaign for Human
Development, accusing them of adopting “McCarthy-era tactics” in their
quest to rid the USCCB-run organization of problematic partnerships.
MARK STEYN:
We’re told that
universal surveillance has prevented all kinds of atrocities we can never
hear about — an answer straight out of Orwell. Yet oddly, in the ones we
do hear about, the perps are hiding in plain sight (Major Hasan with
“Soldier of Allah” on his business card), the intelligence services do
nothing (the Pantybomber known to the CIA but still permitted to board the
plane), and the digital superstate is useless (the Tsarnaev photo rang no
bells with the facial-recognition software, but was identified by friends
who saw it on TV).
WED, JUN 5
-- Last week Eleanor, one of our sidewalk counselors, got a call from a young
woman to whom she had given her phone number at Planned Parenthood on
Tuesday. "I didn't have the abortion," she said (#32), "but I need help."
Which she is getting. Thank God for this victory, which came
after a scarcity of babies saved.

- Eleanor and Mary counseled a young
woman on Tuesday at Planned Parenthood. She came out of the abortion
facility and told Eleanor, "I didn't do it!" That brings our
total to 31.

"Personally

Republican nomination for senator. Ed Markey won the Democrat primary.
The common thread seems to be: to the biggest Obama sycophants go the
victories. Strategy in the upcoming special election: "Don't vote! It
only encourages them!"

"I doubt that he is the long-prophesied ruler

only anti-Christ but anti-human as well." --
