They Finally Tell the Truth

1. In an unguarded moment, the Administration's point woman on dialogue about abortion (and a former board member of Emily's List, the pro-abortion PAC) gave the game away: "It is not our goal to reduce the number of abortions… [the goal is to] reduce the need for abortions." Note the subtle difference in language, and understand the huge practical difference -- their plan is to flood the nation with contraceptives while keeping abortion as a back-stop, not to actually do anything that will reduce the number of abortions.

2. Keep your eyes on the news at around 1 p.m. today -- the California Supreme Court will release it's decision on the challenge to Proposition 8, which retained the authentic definition of marriage. Isn't it bizarre that we're waiting for a half-dozen lawyers to emerge from behind the Wizard of Oz's curtain to announce whether black will be white, and white black?

UPDATE: Proposition 8 upheld by the California Supreme Court.


3. It appears that the President has chosen Second Circuit judge Sonia Sotomayor for the Supreme Court. While it's nice that she's a graduate of Cardinal Spellman High School (a few years ahead of me), it's exceedingly unlikely that her Catholic education will make any difference in rulings on the sanctity of human life. For a quick overview of her record as a judicial activist, see here.

4. Moloch is always hungry for human babies. Now the biotech industry is not satisfied with the President's new stem cell guidelines, and want them amended to allow them to create new human lives so that they can be dismembered for spare parts.

5. Meanwhile, the ironies of the Culture of Death continue to amass -- it appears that Downs Syndrome babies, who are being sytematically eradicated prior to birth, may hold the key to some cancer cures.

6. Reason number 98,765,435,498,469,843,543,854 why parents should be very leery about sending their children to "Catholic" colleges. Seattle University, a school in the Jesuit tradition, hosts a "Faith and Reproductive Justice" seminar, featuring all pro-abortion speakers, including a clergy person representing of the Temple of Moloch, er, I mean Planned Parenthood -- on Ascension Thursday.

7. Well, what a surprise! States that funded abstinence education programs have fewer teen abortions than states that rejected the funding. Not that evidence means anything to Congress or our New York State Legislature.

8. The Cult of Moloch wants to go on the air, so the government in the UK is considering allowing abortion centers to advertise on TV and radio.

9. But here are ten signs of hope from the National Catholic Register. Here's one they should have mentioned as well: Summorum Pontificum.
