Planned Parenthood: The Facts

Standing in front of an anti-Planned Parenthood display in college, I had a fascinating conversation with some passersby.  They were turned off by the campaign’s attack on Planned Parenthood, and they were concerned that without Planned Parenthood there would be no healthcare for needy women.  “Yeah, they may do abortions, and we get that no […]

The Bottom Line

The (now seven) videos from the Center for Medical Progress have clearly outlined Planned Parenthood’s disregard for not only life but also the law.

Planned Parenthood Shamed in the First Presidential Debate

The first debate of the Fox News/Facebook presidential debate, featuring the candidates who did not make the top 10, is now over.  If you missed it, you missed a great shaming of Planned Parenthood in light of the recent stomach-churning undercover videos showing how the organization profits from the sale of aborted babies’ hearts, brains, […]

Washington, D.C. — Penny Nance, CEO and President of Concerned Women for America, statement: “Nothing has united pro-choice and pro-life voters more than the recent revelations and video proof that government-subsidized Planned Parenthood is selling the remains of abortions — including intact ‘cadavers’ and possibly altering procedures to ensure saleable, ‘useable’ specimens. “Most Republican presidential […]

Protesting vs. Sidewalk Counseling

There are such noble reasons for protests. Truly there are.  As I sit here, my office prepares to protest the so-called “deal” with Iran, which is really no deal at all, but an unwise and naïve concession.  Protests matter.  They start conversations.  They move hearts.  Some are crazy and violent and without a message (think […]

Dr. Bruchalski’s Road to Damascus Story

In the beginning of the pro-life movement, we first messaged our position in terms of saving the lives of the unborn, and rightly so.  But the movement realized people needed to know that mothers were also cared for, so pregnancy centers and slogans like “Love Them Both” and “One Dead: One Wounded” started to become […]

Defending Planned Parenthood is Blindness

Nothing is beneath the horror of Planned Parenthood.  This has got to stop! Why do we fund Planned Parenthood?
