On her eponymous 1 p.m. ET show on MSNBC on Thursday, host Andrea Mitchell ranted against House Republicans daring to introduce pro-life legislation to limit abortions: "The House is expected to vote by tonight on controversial new restrictions that would go against Roe v.

You should wait at least as long before buying a gun as before killing a baby – if HuffPo contributors Jan Diehm and Katy Hall had their way, that is. It’s an outrage to them that there are more waiting periods for abortions than there are for guns.
Diehm and Hall posted a piece today complaining that more states require you to wait before having an abortion than before buying a gun. Using…

CNN Hypes GOP Congressman's Remark on Rape and Pregnancy; Brings Up To
CNN tarred the Romney campaign with Todd Akin's infamous "legitimate rape" comment, and now it is trying to do the same to Rep. Trent Franks (R-Ariz.) for making a much less controversial remark on rape and pregnancy.
Franks, referring to a bill that would ban abortions after 20 weeks, and arguing that no exception should be made for pregnancies from rape, claimed that "the incidents of rape…
Slate Feminist Whips Out the Nazi Card Against Pro-life Republican
On June 11, Slate editor Emily Bazelon whipped out the Nazi card against Congressman Trent Franks.

ABC ‘World News’ Silent on Morning-After Pill for Kids
America’s daughters will now be able to buy the “morning after” abortion pill with their Justin Bieber fan-zines and “Twilight” novels. To many people, that’s important news. But ABC didn’t think it was worth noting on “World News with Diane Sawyer.”
Perhaps ABC felt it was already covering an important health story and couldn’t fit another in the broadcast. And really, a segment on women…
NYTimes, WSJ Fail to Quote Critics of Plan B in Story About Obama Back
