Montgomery County Official Colluding With NARAL To Facilitate Murder Of Babies

Today LifeSiteNews revealed that they obtained proof that Maryland NARAL colluded with George Leventhal, Montgomery County Council president, in the County's legislative effort to cripple pro-life pregnancy centers.  The article links to a series of emails between Leventhal and Jodi Finkelstein, Maryland NARAL president.  I'd encourage you (particularly Montgomery County citizens) not only to read the emails but to download the pdf onto your own computers.

While the news is disgraceful, it is not at all surprising.  In December 2009 I recorded much of the hearing regarding the bill.  If you go to my archives  of that time period you'll see a whole collection of video.  One of those posts discusses the obvious bias of George Leventhal and his arrogance towards pro-life citizens who testified against the legislation.  Of course NARAL has endorsed him during election times, no doubt giving him lots of award and motivation for facilitating baby-murder.

But George Leventhal and his pro-abortion cronies aren't the only ones who are helping NARAL spill more babies' blood.  In one of her emails to Leventhal, Finkelstein outlined some strategies.  At least some of them were taken from a NARAL publication entitled "Choice Action Kit - Unmasking Fake Clinics - A Step By Step Guide".  It's a 56-page tome and I happen to have a copy.  On page 2 of this publication are some acknowledgements; one of those acknowledged is the Midwest Academy.  A woman named Helen Booth started it and is an unabashed leftist.  As I said in this post three years ago, her husband addressed a USCCB conference.  Consider: they aided and abetted NARAL in their misdeeds.  Why would the USCCB invite her or her husband to address Catholics?

We can also ask this question: why did the Catholic Campaign for Human Development ever deem the Midwest Academy worthy of a grant?  Here, courtesy of Michael Voris and company, is an expose of CCHD's underhanded practices.  In a nutshell, what all this means is that Catholic donors unwittingly funded pro-abortion attacks on pro-life pregnancy centers.

I would hope voters would remember this collusion during the 2018 elections.  However, Montgomery County is infested with progressive lemmings so I don't hold much hope.  Sadly I don't hold much more hope for the USCCB and its CCHD.  They both should be dismantled before they continue to sabotage the Church further.

Ms Block's Continuing Series On The CCHD

As promised, I now link to her latest installment.  My comment on her piece will be more of an addendum.  For that, I will hearken back to an earlier post from last year, as we were fighting off the attempt by NARAL to silence pro-life pregnancy centers.

Ms Block makes mention of the Midwest Academy.  It was Michael Voris' Vortex that revealed that Midwest Academy itself was a CCHD grant recipient.  I think it's not too much of a stretch to say that the CCHD helped fund efforts (albeit unwittingly, I hope) to hobble pro-life pregnancy centers and thus to aid and abet baby-murder.

Some Additional Thoughts On Post Immediately Below This

I just watched the "CIA" episode for the second time.  If you watched it at least once, you'll notice that one of the prominent recipients of CCHD money was an outfit called the Midwest Academy, started by Helen Booth.  This "academy" is an unabashed school for leftist radicals.  Her husband, Paul Booth, was a speaker at the USCCB "Social Ministry" meeting that I had hoped would have been snowed out.

Now let's jump back a few months, to events particularly relevant to Montgomery County and Baltimore City (and in increasing numbers of localities throughout the US).  As we are all too painfully aware, the pro-life pregnancy centers are under attack by NARAL, as NARAL tries to label them as buffoons.  I stand by my analogy of likening NARAL to the Nazis forcing stars upon the Jews, by the way.

If you recall some of the testimony that I posted on this blog, you'll hear one of the pregnancy center directors state that NARAL's plan is right out of a publication called "Choice Action Kit - Unmasking Fake Clinics - A Step by Step Guide".  All the strategy used by NARAL is spelled out in this 60+ page booklet.  I have a copy. 

In the front of this booklet, NARAL publishes some acknowledgements of gratitude.  Among those to whom NARAL expressed gratitude is - the Midwest Academy!  Now think for a moment!  This "academy" received CCHD money, meaning that Catholic dollars were channelled to a pro-abortion organization for the express purpose of facilitating baby murder!  "But that's in the past!", I hear the CCHD apologists whine.  No, it's not in the past, when the founder's husband addressed a "catholyc" convocation just one month ago!  Who are we kidding here?

Take a look at their website.  Now ask, "why are they addressing Catholics, and what business do they have receiving CCHD money?"
