Dear Pro-Life Friends:
Please read the Press Release below from Students for Life of America. Based on footage released from this group, a nurse at a Freehold, NJ Planned Parenthood facility funded with your state and federal tax dollars described how an abortion would be performed on a 22 week unborn child. Please remember these facts when you vote on Tuesday, November 4, 2008. Barack Obama Voted 4 Times to Deny Babies Medical Care who are born alive during abortions. Please pass this on to friends and family. Barack Obama is the most extreme pro-abortion candidate to ever run for President of the United States. Please Vote Pro-Life. Please go to our website for a comparison of the Presidential candidates, www.njrtl.org
Thank you,
Marie Tasy
Executive Director
New Jersey Right to Life
| Tax-Funded Planned Parenthood Staffer on Infants Left to Die after Induced Labor: "It does happen.", Obama Voted 4 Times to Deny These Babies Medical Care October 2008 undercover video shot by Students for Life uncovers truth about babies born alive during abortions Arlington, VA - Today, Students for Life of America (SFLA) released undercover footage of a nurse at a Title X, federally funded Freehold, New Jersey Planned Parenthood facility describing how an abortion would be performed on a 22 week unborn child. View the video here: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DnlHNbAh6xY. In case this video is removed by Youtube, you may also view it on Eyeblast at the following link: http://www.eyeblast.tv/public/video.aspx?v=e46UqG8zSU. In the footage, the Planned Parenthood nurse describes to the pregnant woman that the abortion would entail delivering her son alive and, after the woman asks if the baby can be born alive, the nurse admits that "it does happen, but it wouldn't be able to survive on its own so eventually the baby does die." This footage is shocking on multiple fronts and is relevant given the current presidential race. In August, an abortion survivor, Gianna Jessen, was featured in an ad asking why, as an Illinois State Senator, Barack Obama voted 4 times against a bill that would have protected babies born alive during an abortion called the Born-Alive Infants Protection Act. The bill was drafted after Chicago nurse Jill Stanek discovered that babies were being born alive during abortions and left to die. The SFLA video includes an audio clip of Senator Obama speaking out against the bill in 2002 on the Illinois Senate floor attacking the bill as burdening "the original decision of the woman and the physician to induce labor and perform an abortion." In the 3rd presidential debate on October 15, 2008, Obama said that he voted against the bill because it would have infringed upon Roe v. Wade and was medically unnecessary, claiming protections were already in place. However, the law he is referring to did not have the specific protections that would have provided medical care to babies born alive during abortions. As evidenced in the SFLA video, the practice of allowing babies born alive during abortions to die, which is defined as infanticide, is still being practiced today. Senator Obama argues that to let these babies live is "to burden the original decision of the woman." The video released today further validates the undercover video that SFLA obtained of infamous late-term abortionist, George Tiller, in March of 2008 stating, "Let's say you have 15 or 16, you had one slip out with a heartbeat; that is not a viable fetus, but that is born alive or has a heartbeat." View that video here:http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hrPGm3dsWrk. Kristan Hawkins, SFLA's Executive Director remarked, "I was absolutely stunned when the Planned Parenthood nurse revealed that allowing a baby to die after being born alive is a common practice for abortionists. It begs the question of why a presidential candidate will not support human rights protections for babies born alive during an abortion procedure. This is outright infanticide, and a candidate for President defends it!" Students for Life of America is urging Congress to immediately investigate Planned Parenthood, the nation's largest abortion chain and recipient of over $300 million federal taxpayer dollars each year. In addition, they are asking Senator Obama to explain and reconsider his opposition to giving human rights to babies born alive during abortions.

Never heard of either of those, thank you so much.
Also found something interesting thru your link, a national prolife yellow pages, looks like they’re just getting it going, but we need this sort of info all in one place. It’s not enough anymore to know whom to boycott, as so many businesses are now involved with anti-life groups and you would never know.
How do we possibly avoid doing business with companies that support abortion, sometimes not ostensibly, but, for example, by giving donations and having fundraisers for employees to contribute to March of Dimes, or supporting community “health” or “family education” centers which often are really places that promote abortion or teenage promiscuity by giving contraceptives.
I shop frequently online with Lands End, seems like a nice, wholesome, all-American company. Today I read their online “Social Responsibility Statement” and found those sort of problems. Tried four other very well-known companies with a family image and discovered all sorts of leftist stuff in their “Social Responsibility Statements”.
Unbelievable. I can’t fathom how anyone could do this. I mean, I’m not exactly a moral pillar in the community, but this is SICK and EVIL! Unreal. Eventually “it” dies. SICK!!! I am sure most Americans have no idea this is happening.
I told this story to my sister-in-law last night about Obama voting against the Infants Born Alive bill. She had NEVER HEARD about it before, and she was shocked.
BTTT!
