The following comes from a January 20 California Family Alliance article by Lori Arnold:
On the eve of the 43rd anniversary of legalized abortion in the United States, the California Assembly passed a new resolution praising abortion rights and the landmark Roe v. Wade decision. Former Assembly speaker Toni Atkins introduced House Resolution (HR) 32 earlier this month, which reads in part:
“Resolved by the Assembly of the State of California, that the Assembly urges the President of the United States and the United States Congress to express their support for a woman’s fundamental right to control her own reproductive decisions, as well as their support for access to comprehensive reproductive health care, including the services provided by Planned Parenthood …”
On Tuesday, the resolution passed the Assembly by a vote of 53-22, with four Members not recording a vote. During the floor debate before the vote, Assembly Members Shannon Grove, Jim Patterson, Marie Waldron and James Gallagher each gave spirited interventions in opposition to the resolution. Republicans Catharine Baker, Ling Ling Chang, and Brian Maienschein broke with their party to vote in favor of the proposal, while three Republicans had no votes recorded (Travis Allen, Kristin Olsen and David Hadley). Not a single Democrat opposed the resolution.
In addition to HR 32, a California state Senator has resurrected her own legislation extolling the “virtues” of Planned Parenthood. The resolution, originally titled “Relative to Planned Parenthood,” was introduced last August by Senator Hannah-Beth Jackson (D-Santa Barbara). Jackson recently amended it using the more innocuous phrase “women’s reproductive health” in place of “Planned Parenthood.”
Largely symbolic, the resolution asks the President and the Congress to support access to “comprehensive reproductive health care, including the services provided by Planned Parenthood, and to oppose efforts to eliminate federal funding for Planned Parenthood.”
Although Planned Parenthood appears to be losing its luster nationally, California’s liberal legislative caucus continues to dig in their heels, obstinately pushing forward their agenda to provide abortions at any cost. Consider these actions over the past few years:
Pregnancy Care Clinics have been ordered to promote abortion in their lobbies, literature or websites.
Medi-Cal reimbursement rates for abortions were increased by 40 percent while all other reimbursements for medical providers and hospitals were cut by 10 percent.
Safety standards for women have been compromised after certain classes of nurses across the state were given the green light to perform surgical abortions.
Access to abortion has increased after building regulations for abortion clinics have been eliminated.
California the Satanic state
Is there still a Republican Party to Break From?
Baker is a bit of a surprise, but then is apparently not running again (or for State Senate) – so who knows what is behind all that.
Ever since the Heavy Media Censorship of the Blackmail of Governor ‘Der Arnold’ over his not so very ‘secret’ Extra Son – the Gaystapo have pretty much been able to silence and manipulate anyone in Sacramento who could get in their way.
“We shall either nobly save, or meanly lose, this last best hope on Earth.” A. Lincoln (Republican)
So Arnold’s infidelities are the fault of gay people? And Arnold’s infidelities are somehow relevant to politics in Sacramento – what is it? 7 years later? Gay people got the media to censor the media over the son? Or did gay people blackmail the governor? Or did gay people censor the media after they blackmail the governor?
What???
ietquay onway ethay agendaway! Wink, wink . . .
In true ‘kennedy klanswomyn’ style, Maria Shriver (Hyroine to the Twysted Sisterhood and big money power in the democrat machine) Confronted her ostensibly Catholic Husband about the Extra Son who had been in her house – On the Day After Leaving Office.
Arnold also appointed Suzi Kennedy (Radical Homosex Misandrist Demi-crat ‘Chief of Staff’ to recalled governor gay davis) – his Chief of Staff, giving her full access to the ‘enemy’ files.
When the State Refused to even pretend to defend the Constitution on Marriage -Arnold (who had ridden in to office on a populist recall) – Forbid any defense at all.
I watched the State Attorney representing ‘Der Arnold’ in Court, and as holyweird ‘No Shows’ go, this was a doozie.
BTW…
And people who claim to be Catholics vote for these pro-abortion politicians!
Baker is not an honest person.
A total DISGRACE!! Instead, these shabby, disgusting immoral politicians should re-title so-called “reproductive rights,” as “false rights to a filthy “hippie life,” of SINFUL PROMISCUITY!” A DISGUSTING DISGRACE, TO ALL OF CALIFORNIA!! And NOT ONE TEAR is shed, by these filthy, stinking politicians– for the POOR BABIES KILLED IN THEIR MOTHER’S WOMBS, AND THEIR BODY PARTS EVILLY RIPPED OUT AND SOLD!! SHAME ON ALL OF YOU, IN THE STATE LEGISLATURE!!
Planned Parenthood had a couple of students at the college where I teach standing out in the quad soliciting support for PP. As long as our youth want sex without responsibility, as long as they view it as recreation and a right to which they are entitled, you can be sure PP will thrive. And why? Because our youth learned this from their parents, some of whom are our legislators up in Sacramento,
What a disgusting group of human beings we have in California making our
laws and telling us what is best for us. It is quite evident by their actions that they do not believe they will have to account for their actions whey they meet their maker on judgment day. If a baby is worth nothing when it is in their mother’s womb – why are their body parts worth so much when they are killed? And our Congressional Senators from California are no better – no matter how loudly they protest. They are all worthless human beings with no conscious. Please pray for them.
