• Coming Home and John Jacubczyk report on Newt Gingrich’s apparent confusion on his own position as to when life begins.
• Down on the Pharm writes about the NYC woman being charged with self-abortion after putting the remains of her 7-inch preborn child in a dumpster. Pharm wonders what the problem is, since abortion is done every day in NY, legally, for any reason, up to 24 weeks. Is the issue simply that an abortionist was deprived of his livelihood?
• Big Blue Wave points to examples of pro-life youth entering the medical profession.
• The Euthanasia Prevention Coalition announces great news from Massachusetts: The Massachusetts Medical Association overwhelmingly voted to re-affirm its position against assisted suicide at their recent meeting.
