of the investigations, Cardinal Franc Rodé, bluntly admitted that a
“certain feminist spirit” is one of the reasons behind the
investigations of U.S. nuns. Read more...http://sn.im/tdyx1Read More

after pioneering Kansas abortion provider Dr. George Tiller was
murdered on May 31 and his Wichita clinic subsequently closed, other
abortion physicians bravely stepped into the breach. Among the most public was Nebraska-based Dr. LeRoy
... Carhart, who for 11 years had traveled to Wichita monthly to perform late abortions at
Tiller’s clinic. Carhart quickly announced he would continue Tiller’s work either at his
Nebraska clinic in Bellevue or in Kansas. Read more...http://sn.im/tbg1rRead More

No Dignity For NBC by Michele Kort, Ms. magazine Senior
Anyone who’s watched the long-running NBC series Law and Order—the
original, not the spinoffs—knows that its stories are often “ripped
from the headlines.” So it wasn’t all that surprising that the October
23 episode, entitled “Dignity,” was obviously inspired by th...e murder
this past spring of Kansas abortion provider Dr. George Tiller in his
church. Read more...http://sn.im/svf37Read More

HARD TIMES = HARD CHOICES | by Carole Joffe, Ms. Washington Correspondent
A new report from the Guttmacher Institute gives
useful empirical backing for what most people already know: Bad
economic times like the present significantly affect individual’s and

Minority leader John Boehner, who last winter famously mocked the
inclusion of a modest proposal in the original stimulus package to
increase family planning funding and ultimately forced the removal of
this provision). Read more... http://sn.im/s70msRead More
