Beware killer fruit but no alert for killer abortion drugs

The Kill Pill












Have you heard about the tainted cantaloupes? Of course you have. CDC reports  13 deaths and 72 illnesses have been attributed to eating  bad cantaloupes and you are being advised to throw out the fruit if you are not sure where it came from. Isn't that the job of the govt. to warn us when there are such things?
Why the silence about  14  deaths and 2207 adverse effects?

Oh ya, it is from the abortion industry. We don't want to publicize that. I am talking about RU 486 the chemical abortion pill. Well isn't that the intent to kill the baby? Yes, but I am talking about deaths of the women who are taking the pill...not the baby that is supposed  to die. Isn't it all about women and their rights? Where is the publicity? Where is the FDA? Where is the govt? 

SILENT.....because if benefits the abortion industry and the cash cow of the future for Planned Parenthood. Double standard?

Death from eating bad fruit....unacceptable......death from bad abortion drugs....well, these things happen.

Get the facts....watch this video on the risks of RU486.

RU 486 the silent killer continues its work.......

National Right to Life has an article in about the number of complications and deaths caused from the "abortion pill" RU 486.
One of these deaths has a TN connection. I remember it well because I lobbied unsuccessfully against the use of RU 486  beyond the FDA recommended usage and requiring ultrasounds to be performed before administration of the drug. Even with nationally known expert Dr. Donna Harrison testifying
 about the dangers of this drug to women (I remember her saying clearly....the baby still dies but these women are also at serious risk when taking this drug.) the effort failed thanks to the TN Medical Association lobbying efforts that cooperated with the abortion supporting politicians, Planned Parenthood and the ACLU. Shame on all of them.


Brenda Vise , a 38 yr. old pharmaceutical rep from Chattanooga  died in 2002 from the administration of this drug was the victim in question. Real Choice outlines the details of her  suffering and death. Yes, she was given an ultrasound prior to administration of the first drug  and when no fetus was viewed  it  should have been a cause for considering that the positive pregnancy test might be an ectopic pregnancy. 

But no, she was told that perhaps it  was too early to view the baby on the ultrasound at six weeks. NOT SO. Then the symptoms of ectopic pregnancy mirrors that of the RU 486 abortion so when she called  to report her deteriorating condition she was falsely told that these were the normal symptoms of the procedure.


Now Planned Parenthood  plans for telemed RU 486 abortions to be their cash cow of the future. Since the abortion providers are retiring without new ones to replace them, this is their answer. The abortionist can sit before his computer screen and with a few keystrokes and skype administer this deadly drug anywhere.


·         AUL reports Arizona, Kansas, Nebraska, North Dakota, and Oklahoma regulated the provision of RU-486, effectively prohibiting “telemed” abortions. Well, what about TN....I knew that a bill to do the same passed overwhelmingly in TN this past session. Further investigation showed that the bill that passed overwhelmingly will not go into effect on July 1, 2011 as all the bills do after the session ends but the date was mysteriously changed to be effective on January 1, 2013.  WHAT?? How many more deaths are acceptable??

Telemed’ Abortions Under Investigation In Iowa

 From Operation Rescue.org
Des Moines, IA – Operation Rescue has been notified in writing that the Iowa Medical Board is now investigating the “care and treatment” practices of abortionist Susan Haskell and Planned Parenthood of the Heartland. The investigation is in response to complaints  filed by Operation Rescue Senior Policy Advisor Cheryl Sullenger concerning “Telemed” abortions.
“Telemed” is short for telemedicine, a practice when the patient consults with a physician over the Internet via Skype or other teleconferencing hook-up.
Operation Rescue investigators found that a dozen small Planned Parenthood offices in Iowa were administering the dangerous abortion drug, RU 486, without the patient ever having been personally examined by a physician. Instead, an abortionist briefly addresses abortion patients from a teleconferencing hook up from her office in Des Moines. After explaining the medical abortion process, a button is pushed and an electronic drawer opens that contains the drugs.
“We believe that this practice is illegal and violates Iowa law that requires that a licensed physician perform abortions in that state, and increases the serious dangers to the public,” said Operation Rescue President Troy Newman.
It was also discovered that Planned Parenthood deviates from the FDA protocols in both dosage and number of recommended office visits. The abortion patient never has personal access to a licensed physician, even for follow-up. Insurance companies are charged $1,000 for the procedure, twice the cost of cash patients and over 2½ times the national average cost for such abortions, a practice that will drive up insurance costs for everyone.
The abortion pill has a failure rate of 7-20% depending on how it is administered, but with no licensed physician in sight, women are left in a condition that is considered life-threatening. At least 13 women have died from medical abortions and over 1,100 have suffered serious complications. (Including one in TN who actually had a an undiagnosed tubal pregnancy SA)
“Planned Parenthood has come up with a dangerous scheme to peddle abortion pills to women without the cost of transporting a licensed physician to each clinic. Without enough abortionists to staff all of their clinics, this ‘telemed’ scheme is the goose that laid the golden egg for them. Never mind that it is a serious danger to women and to the economics of this country, especially if it expands nationally,” said Newman.
“We pray that the Iowa Board of Medicine will bring this outrageous abortion abuse to an end.”
