Ex-Abortion Clinic Worker: We Gave Women Anesthesia and Had No Idea What We Were Doing

“Meet the Abortion Providers” and “Abortion the Inside Story” are companion documentaries that must be seen by anyone who wants to understand the issue of prenatal homicide.

The films feature women and men who used to work in the abortion industry, but who have turned around and to defend life and women from abortion killing. Although the documentaries were produced in the late 80s and early 90s, they remain highly relevant in the post-Gosnell era.

Dr. James Dobson to ‘abortion president’ Obama on HHS mandate: ‘Come and get me’ (video)

WASHINGTON, D.C., May 1, 2014 (LifeSiteNews.com) – America’s favorite family counselor and psychologist branded Barack Obama “the abortion president” at a rally for the National Day of Prayer in Washington, D.C., today.

Dr. James Dobson, the host of Family Talk Radio and founder of Focus on the Family Ministries, had a firm message for the commander-in-chief: He will never fund abortion or abortifacient contraception, challenging the president to “come and get me.”

“President Obama before he was elected made it very clear that he wanted to be the abortion president,” Dobson told the gathering today. “Early on in his first term, he announced through the Health and Human Services [Department] that every American who gets insurance” must provide sterilization, contraception, and abortion-inducing drugs to all employees with no co-pay.

He also cited the administration’s $1 abortion surcharge, allowing insurance agencies to collect one dollar a month from policy holders to cover the cost of abortions covered by the plans. Critics say this amounts to little more than an accounting gimmick, presenting the appearance of a separate fund for abortion while ObamaCare reimbursements pay for most abortion-related costs.

“In fact his budget, which he submitted this year had $250 million for Planned Parenthood,” Dobson said. “It’s breathtaking what this means for unborn children.”

In the video of Dobson’s remarks, which was posted by WorldNetDaily.com, Dobson then read a defiant statement he drafted when he refused to comply with the HHS mandate.

“It would be a violation of my most deeply held convictions to disobey what I consider to be the principles in Scripture,” Dobson wrote. “The Creator will not hold us guiltless if we turn a deaf ear to the cries of His innocent babies.”

“So, come and get me if you must, Mr. President,” Dobson said, voice rising. “I will not bow before your wicked regulation.”

The doctor recently won an injunction from a federal judge exempting his ministry from complying with what Dobson described as the “wicked regulation.” He has stated that the fines would cost $800,000 a year and force him to close his operations.

President Obama signed a presidential proclamation for the National Day of Prayer, which is observed in the United States every May 1, noting that he was legally obliged to do so by Public Law 100-307. His statement called on Americans to give thanks for their liberties and to remember all “prisoners of conscience” around the world.

“One of our Nation’s great strengths is the freedom we hold dear, including the freedom to exercise our faiths freely,” the president wrote.

Study: Abortion Multiplies Women’s Breast Cancer Risk by 2.8 Times

by Karen Malec | Washington, DC | LifeNews.com | 4/30/14 11:44 AM

An Indian study found a statistically significant 2.8-fold increased breast cancer risk among women who’d had abortions.[1]  Dr. Unmesh Takalkar led the study. He serves as a consultant surgeon and chief medical director at United CIIGMA Hospital in India and an endoscopic surgeon and fellow at Johns Hopkins.

Although dozens of studies dating from 1957 support an abortion-breast cancer (ABC) link[2], the latest study is the seventh on the Indian subcontinent to implicate abortion as a risk factor for the disease[1,3-8], with a Bangladesh study reporting as much as a statistically significant 20-fold risk elevation.[3]

Four additional Indian studies and a Sri Lankan study reported findings showing abortion significantly multiplied breast cancer risk between 1.9 and 6.38 times.[4-8]

Takalkar’s team did not distinguish between induced and spontaneous abortions (miscarriages), but induced abortion has become so commonplace that it can be presumed to account for most abortions. First trimester miscarriages (which make up most miscarriages) do not raise breast cancer risk, so their inclusion in the study results in a slight underestimate of the ABC risk.

For example, in 2013, Yubei Huang and his colleagues, who examined 36 Chinese studies, demonstrated that studies including both miscarriages and induced abortions pulled down the ABC risk slightly, as they averaged a 41% risk increase, but studies including exclusively induced abortions averaged a 49% risk elevation. Huang’s team, therefore, reported a statistically significant 44% increased risk for women with abortions.[9]

In an interview with the National Review Online in January, 2014, our science adviser, Professor Joel Brind (co-founder of the Breast Cancer Prevention Institute), lamented how many post-abortive Asian women will develop breast cancer because abortion is ‘politically protected’ in the West.

Doc Who Killed Woman in 33-Week Abortion Botches Seven Abortions in Two Years

by Cheryl Sullenger | Bellevue, NE | LifeNews.com | 4/28/14 11:04 AM<!–Email–><!–Email–>

An ambulance arrived at LeRoy Carhart’s Abortion and Contraception Clinic of Nebraska in Bellevue on Saturday, March 26, 2014, and transported yet another a patient to a nearby hospital. This is the seventh known abortion-related medical emergency involving Carhart in the last two years.

This even comes ironically on the same day that Operation Rescue received a letter from the Nebraska Department of Health and Human Services notifying it that there would be no investigation into other botched abortion incidents involving Carhart.

“In light of this most recent emergency, we call on the Nebraska Department of Health and Human Services to immediately close Carhart’s Bellevue abortion business until a full investigation can take place,” said Operation Rescue President Troy Newman. “We are well aware of Carhart’s political connections that have insulated him from responsibility in two previous abortion-related deaths and a string of abortion injuries. It is time for the DHHS to stop putting politics above the lives and health of women and take immediate action to address the health crisis that has been created by Carhart’s shoddy abortion practices.”

According to pro-life activists who were at the clinic at the time of Saturday’s incident, the injured patient was a woman who had come to Carhart’s poorly-maintained abortion clinic the previous day on Friday with her teen-aged daughter.

On Friday, the two women stayed at Carhart’s abortion office for about three hours, then left with the older woman driving.

The following morning, the two women were seen returning to Carhart’s facility. At about 11:50 a.m. on Saturday, the ambulance arrived for the older woman. According to witnesses, the daughter ran out of the clinic and told pro-life activists, “That’s my mom,” referring to the woman who was being transported.

“The events reported by witnesses are indicative of a botched early second trimester abortion procedure,” said Newman.

Carhart has carried no hospital privileges whatsoever since 1982. A lack of hospital privileges has been shown to interrupt the continuity of patient care and create delays in emergency treatment of women suffering life-threatening abortion complications.

Dates of other incidents involving Carhart documented by Operation Rescue include:

• March 4, 2014, Germantown, MD: Patient hemorrhaged after 2nd trimester abortion complications.
• November 30, 2013, Bellevue, NE: Patient suffered 2nd trimester abortion complications.
• November 26, 2013, Germantown, MD: Patient required emergency surgery. (Video with 911 recording)
• July 9, 2013, Germantown, MD: Patient hemorrhaged. (Video with 911 recording)
• February 7, 2013, Germantown, MD: Patient Jennifer Morbelli died of 3rd trimester abortion complications. (Autopsy Report)
• March 31, 2012, Bellevue, NE: Patient heard moaning and screaming during 911 call (Video with 911 recording.)

In addition, Carhart was involved in the 2005 abortion death of 19-year old Christin Gilbert, who died of complications to a third trimester abortion at a now-closed late-term abortion clinic in Wichita, Kansas.
