Oklahoma has taken an important step towards ending this abuse against women. With overwhelming bipartisan suppo

His latest stunt is to call for the burning of effigies of Harry Reid and Nancy Pelosi on Halloween. He claims this is in the great American tradition. That’s good, because it goes completely against the Christian tradition. Besides, being a Catholic for only five minutes, he clearly would not understand the profound anti-Catholic undertones of burning effigies around this date. Honestly, is Terry really trying to push more and more people into the pro-choice column? It would seem so. And it mak

The folks at NBC’s long-running legal franchise Law & Order must have thought they’d garner headlines and praise for their ” balanced, thought-provoking ” take on abortion last Friday, an episode called ” Dignity ” based on the murder of an abortion provider. But balanced it was not: an episode that was meant to focus on the prosecution of a cold-blooded murder ended up putting women’s rights on trial–and viewers picked up on its slant right away. Immediate twitter an

by Kelli Spotlighting important information gleaned from other pro-life blogs… Albert Mohler writes about the growing realization that the feminist movement was “not about happiness”… Nevertheless, as [Maureen] Dowd notes, feminism has served to increase the burdens upon women, even as it promised to open doors. … In reality, feminism was never only about opening doors for women… [T]he feminist movement aspired to nothing short of a total social, moral, and cultura

College students from across the state of Oklahoma are taking a stand on Oklahoma’s newest abortion law, enacting the Statistical Abortion Reporting Act. In a response to this legislation, the students are planning Reproductive Rights Week on the campus of the University of Oklahoma and all events will culminate with a statewide protest at the Oklahoma State Capitol on November 6, at 9am.

NBC’s venerable crime procedural, “Law & Order,” has endured a fair amount of deserved criticism around here lately. Big Hollywood’s thoughtful critiques of the show’s leftward slide and irksome predictability are, sadly, valid. Like many L&O fans, I’ve been forced to admit that recent seasons have been quite disappointing. The word “cancellation” has cropped up in my mind more than once. That being said, this season has been refreshingly solid. Aside from the atrocious “Let’s

Take this with more than a grain of salt, since the Club for Growth supports him, but in the latest poll by the Club for Growth Doug Hoffman, the pro-life Conservative Party candidate in the special election in the New York 23rd Congressional District endorsed by Sarah Palin and other Republican Party luminaries, leads with 31.3% of the vote to 27% for Bill Owens the Democrat and 19.7% for the pro-abort leftist Republican Dede Scozzafava., with 22% undivided. One of many good reasons wh

If there were courageous, articulate men in the Republican Party, presumably they wouldn’t have to be rescued by women such as Sarah Palin! Margaret Thatcher, Round 2! Establishment Republicans, including Newt Compromise Gingrich, have backed a leftist radical – “pro-choice, pro-gay marriage” – Dede Scozzafava, as the Republican candidate for a vacant New York congressional seat. Sarah Palin, however, has stirred things up by publicly declaring her support for Doug Hoffman of the Conservat
