If someone performs an illegal medical procedure on you or your child, should you be able to sue?

Kathleen Sebelius apparently doesn’t think so- at least, not when the procedure is a late-term abortion.  “Women’s rights” indeed!  This is our new Secretary of Health and Human Services.  FML.

Here’s part four of the Mona Lisa project.  Watch as a Planned Parenthood in Phoenix fails to comply with statutory rape reporting laws, instead enabling the abuse to continue.  This is the fourth time an abortion facility has been caught just by the Live Action group, and a fifth video is on the way.  Prior to Live Action’s project, a massive undercover investigation found statutory rape cover-up at over eight hundred abortion groups.  The news is out, and the state Planned Parenthood organization says they plan to investigate.  At best, this will end with them taking action against the specific employees, but there’s little chance they will ever address their unspoken, systemic policy of ignoring the law.

I am not easily offended, but whoever came up with the idea for this video game needs a good kick in the head.  I understand that there are plenty of violent, crime-glorifying titles out there, but rape is not a game, and watching “the tears glistening in the young girl’s eyes as the player attacks her in graphic detail” is NOT entertainment.  This is an insult to rape survivors in Japan and around the world, and I’m glad that Amazon.com has decided to remove it from its stock.

Bravo, President Obama

Obama has signed the Lilly Ledbetter Fair Pay Act and I’m happy about it.  Finally, something we can agree on.
