Jane Chastain : Politically Direct

For the last month, many people across America have been praying for abortion  Yes, you read this correctly. Planned Parenthood, through its Three Rivers affiliate in California, launched a 40 day campaign, March 18th through April 27th, asking people to pray for the nation’s abortion providers and their clients.   That’s  like Jesse James asking for prayer for his bank robberies or Bernie Madoff praying about some new suckers to rip off.

The brain thrust behind this shameless publicity stunt was Faith Aloud, which is run by, among others, the infamous late-term abortionist LeRoy Carhart.  It bills itself as “a pro-choice religious organization which seeks to eliminate the stigma associated with abortion and sexuality, and to provide support to both women and providers.”

The campaign ended Friday, so I called Faith Aloud to find out about the results of that effort.  The woman on the other end of the phone was speechless. “What do you mean by ‘results’?” she asked. Read the rest of this entry »

Sandra Fluke, the 30-year-old shameless Georgetown law student who, last week,  was invited to address Democrat members of the House of Representatives on her need for free contraceptives, is now a media darling.  Her name has become a household word.  It  may soon be added to the dictionary as a verb “fluked” and the ever popular adverb, “fluking.”

Meanwhile, virtually unnoticed by the mainstream media,  two Australian college professors, Alberto Giubilini and Francesca Minerva, set off a firestorm of worldwide proportions by arguing for legalized infanticide.

Fluke’s appearance was a cheap publicity stunt, little more than a pep rally for President Obama’s plan to force religious institutions to cover contraceptives even if it violates their moral principles. Read the rest of this entry »

The Obama Administration is seeking to use our military to advance its leftist social agenda.   It is up to the American people to stop this attack on our men and women in uniform.  There is no time to lose.

A bill is awaiting final floor action in the Senate that would scrap both the provision that has prevented open homosexuals from serving in the military and force military hospitals and military personnel to perform abortions, a process that many consider to be abhorrent.

Radical feminist groups have been burning up the airwaves and chewing up newsprint in an effort to persuade CBS to reconsider its decision to air a 30-second spot during the Super Bowl featuring football star Tim Tebow and his mother, Pam, called “Celebrate Family, Celebrate Life.”

Although no one outside of Focus on the Family, which produced the spot, and CBS has seen the ad, it likely will highlight the story of this Heisman Trophy winner’s amazing birth.

By now,  most true-blue football fans are somewhat familiar with Tebow, who is as famous for his faith in Christ as he is for his gridiron ability.  After Super Bowl Sunday, even the casual fan will know why Tim’s mother is one of his heroes.  Read the rest of this entry »

I am a fan.  I have purchased “factor gear” for my husband.  I record your television show and generally see at least half of the program every day. I admire your efforts to stand up for “the folks.”  It is little wonder that your show is the number one program out of all the cable news channels.

I thank you for your coverage on George Tiller and how he made his blood money.

However, in your effort to be fair, balanced and factual you often tie yourself up in knots on the issue of abortion and I beg you to reconsider the language you use in debating this issue in order to be consistent and clear while remaining on solid scientific ground. Read the rest of this entry »
