Mother’s Day just passed with fair weather and loving celebrations in much of the country. But it was surrounded by a perfect storm.

Gosnell uncovers what Roe wrought

Sheila Liaugminas | 7 May 2013

And undercover videos show Gosnell is no ‘aberration.’ Some honest advocates of ‘choice’ are seriously reconsidering their whole premise and belief system in light of recent news. While some ‘abortion rights’ activists are coming unglued over these revelations.

Big Abortion exposed

Sheila Liaugminas | 2 May 2013

Revelations about the abortion industry are coming out at a new pace now and in greater detail than ever.

But that’s giving away one of the punchlines of a very lengthy, gut-wrenching, soul-searching article in the Wall Street Journal the other day that, taken together with the commentaries and articles linked within it, is filled with punches to the gut.

They not only responded to the terror with great humanity that day he told me on Tuesday, they would come back stronger and in greater numbers for next year’s Patriot’s Day landmark event. Nobody could have yet known what the week would still hold for Bostonians, and how drained they would be by the end of it. But, thank God, it ended.

Another senseless act of violence: Boston Marathon

Sheila Liaugminas | 16 Apr 2013

Acts of violence never make sense, no matter how this one turns out to be explained.

It’s an assault on sensibilities. Worse, it’s perpetuating the real ‘war on women’ along with the myths about a phony one. Because the drugs being claimed under the umbrella of ‘women’s preventive health services’ are actually dangerous for women’s health. Who’s talking about that?
