Texas Abortion Laws Stand, Thanks Be To God!

LifeSiteNews reports today that the US Supreme Court, by a 5-4 vote (and we know the roll-call, don't we?) refused to block Texas' abortion restrictions.  That means, ladies and gentlemen, that lives will be saved.  In fact, they are being saved and murder-camps are folding.

Ladies and gentlemen, two "take-aways":

1. The Texas law is by no means perfect.  But it's progress.  Contrary to popular opinion, Roe v Wade did not happen overnight.  The pro-death march towards that ruling was long in the making.  Our return to sanity will likewise not be a miraculous cake-walk.  It will be accomplished step by step.
2. Elections matter, even if the candidates put forth are not the knights in shining armor that we think we deserve.  Those five votes were cast by people appointed by Republican presidents, no exception.  No Democrat appointed them.  Needless to say that had some Republicans not stayed home in 2008 and 2012 in temper-tantrum snits, we might be looking at a much different political landscape.  We might have seen a microcosm of the national scenario a few weeks ago in Virginia; had not that libertarian run (supported by Soros money, by the way) Ken Cuccinelli might be governor-elect. 

Abortuaries In The Dung Heap Of History

LifeNews reports that "pro-abortion stalwarts" complain that as many as 35 abortuaries may be forced to close.  It seems that the little money-grubbers don't want to invest any money to bring their mills up to snuff with other surgical facilities.  So much for "no more back alley abortions".  While they're complaining, we who try to actually help the women along with their children rejoice in this prospect.

One such affected Texas abortuary is the Planned Parenthood in Bryan/College Station.  This is the same one from which hailed Abby Johnson.  She is a former director of that murder hole who is now a pro-life activist.  The 40 Days for Life site reports on this matter.  A prayer presence will still continue there because while surgical abortions there have ceased, the mill will still distribute abortifacient drugs such as RU486.

Closer to home, and just south of the Potomac, new Virginia regulations have instigated the closure of NOVA Women's Health Care of Fairfax.  It was probably the busiest abortuary in the entire state of Virginia.  Again, pro-abortion shills are bemoaning the fact that their mills would have to meet standards applicable to other surgical centers.  Admittedly we can see how this would be a problem for Mi-Yong Kim, an owner of the dump as well as former abortionist, who botched an abortion in 1999, faced multiple disciplinary actions and finally surrendered her license in 2007.

Let us pray that we'll be seeing more and more of this type of news.

Pro-Life Victory In Texas!

Despite the rather novel innovations in lobbying undertaken by pro-abortion mobs (I suppose the mob scenes, hurling of human excrement/bricks/paint, threats of gun/chain violence are now lobbying practices as far as those brutes are concerned),  Texas' late-term abortion ban was passed by the Texas State Senate.  Governor Rick Perry will sign it into law.

The bill's "onerous" provisions include:

1. abortion mills held to same standards as other ambulatory surgical centers
2. abortionist performing the murder to at least have admitting privileges at one nearby hospital (unlike Leroy Carhart - who caused another woman this week to be hospitalized)
3. abortionist him/herself administering any baby-killing drugs

Hey!  If these so-called "pro-choicers" want abortion to be "safe, legal and rare", how can they wax so hysterical about this bill?  Well, as we saw by their complete lack of civilized demeanor this week, they're only "pro-death" and abortion should be legal and forget about the "safe" and the "rare".  They are shedding their "compassionate" disguises (that didn't really work too well, when you get right down to it).  

My congratulations to the good people of Texas and thanks to God.
