Taking the Helm at the Coalition on Abortion/Breast Cancer

It is humbling to announce that following the untimely death this past May of Karen Malec, the 16-year president of the Coalition on Abortion/Breast Cancer, that I’ll be taking the helm to succeed my great mentor as president and CEO of the Coalition. Five years ago Karen spent a great deal of time educating me about the link between abortion and breast cancer, sharing with me all of the scientific papers, and informing me of the history of this issue and how it has all unfolded. She was utterly generous with her time and considerable knowledge, her talents, and her gracious good humor.

What Karen and the Coalition have done over the past 16 years has been truly remarkable. She built a website that is encyclopedic in nature, and was indefatigable in presenting the truth of peer reviewed paper after peer reviewed paper to any and all who would listen. Through it all she labored as a colon cancer survivor, only to be diagnosed with ovarian cancer last autumn. On 5 May of this year, God saw fit to bring this happy warrior home.

In discussions with the Board of Directors at the time of my election, I laid out a vision of where I think the work needs to go over the next ten years. At age 55, I am one of the youngest of the scientist/physician community who advance the understanding of this link between induced abortion and breast cancer. Do the math. Where will this community be in ten years? How easily this issue can fade away.

It is for that reason that the Coalition needs to build on the rock-solid foundations laid by Karen Malec, Dr. Angela Lanfranchi, Dr. Joel Brind, Dr. Chris Kahlenborn, and others. While keeping the issue alive in the pro-life movement, we need to reach out to young medical professionals in training: pre-med students, medical students, nursing students, and pharmacy students. Schools simply ignore this issue, and swallow wholesale the sham conference at the National Cancer Institute in 2003 that denied the link, in spite of consistent evidence since 1957. Indeed, papers are coming in from all around the world substantiating this link.

So, some of our larger goals going forward are these:

Hold regular conferences to update our knowledge about the link between abortion and breast cancer, and to teach the history of the issue to young medical professionals who desire to practice good, moral, Hippocratic medicine. We’ll name this conference series after Karen.

Karen Malec

More immediately, redesign the website to make it more intuitive and user-friendly, and with a format that works well on mobile devices. The website will archive all of the relevant scientific papers, as well as video of the Malec Conference Series. It will also archive a series of short educational videos that will be readily grasped by the layperson, as well as medical professional.

As the estrogen/progestin birth control pill causes breast cancer by similar mechanism as induced abortion, and inasmuch as the combined pill and estrogen replacement therapy are listed by the World Health Organization as Group 1 Carcinogens, this work will become more a part of the Coalition’s work. Karen began this a couple of years ago, and we’ll continue in this direction.

The development of educational videos and materials for the public and for medical professionals in training will also be pursued.

All of this is more than possible. It’s very easy to do. There are many groups already serving pro-life students in colleges, nursing and medical schools. The work of this coalition will not be to compete with these groups, but to serve them. But all of this is going to require a solid base of pro-life people to join the Coalition and its donors to raise awareness, reach out to people, and help to fund the mission.

October is Breast Cancer Awareness Month. I’ll be publishing all sorts of educational posts and making the rounds on radio shows. The Coalition is not the only group doing this work, either. Drs. Joel Brind and Angela Lanfranchi run the Breast Cancer Prevention Institute, and Dr. Chris Kahlenborn runs the Polycarp Research Institute. With Karen, they have been the leaders in the field for decades.

All during September I’ll be offering ideas/suggestions for how people can raise awareness of the contributions of the birth control pill and abortion to the ranks of women with breast cancer, and offering the papers that give the consistent data substantiating the link. I’ll also be suggesting how people can raise money during this month of awareness to help the Coalition, and our two cousin organizations mentioned above in helping women to prevent this dread disease.

The nation is focused on the horrors of abortion as never before. We need to shine the light of truth on the real war on women. Join us in September and October as the Coalition advances the great work begun by Karen, and takes it to the place she was headed with it all. And most of all, pray for those of us who labor in this difficult field of getting people past the lies and accepting of the truth of science.

Blessings.

The 30 Million Blacks Julian Bond Missed

The passing of a man who missed the chance to really advance his people.

I admired Julian Bond, and all that he did, but I believe future generations will place an asterisk next to his name. Why he never spoke out forcefully against abortion remains a mystery, even when we made it known a few years ago that 60% of black pregnancies in New York City ended in abortion. The silence was deafening.

Why Bond never really addressed the fact that between 15-20 million black babies have been aborted since 1973, that the abortion industry and Planned Parenthood operate over 70% of their “clinics” in inner-city neighborhoods. Given the loss of all those black lives to abortion, and the offspring they would have produced, we are shy about 30 million more blacks in the US today.

That’s remarkable when one considers the 2010 US Census figures. Out of 308.7 million people, 38.9 million identified as black alone. That’s only 13% of the population. If we had the 30 million who were either aborted, or would have been born to those aborted, the percentage of blacks in America would be more than 20%. Approaching 1/4 of the population would be a game-changer for the black community, and America. While it is not inconceivable that there are those who wouldn’t want that, it is unfathomable that Bond and the others in black leadership would tolerate what has been done to the black community, largely by its own hand. While it would have been nice to see the NAACP and the SPLC militate against the legality of abortion, at the very least they could have mounted a sustained campaign to encourage black women to choose life. They could have militated for funds to establish black pregnancy resource centers. They could have spoken vehemently against race suicide.

They didn’t. They tolerated voices on the left suggesting that black abortion is the answer to black criminality and black poverty. Worse still, Bond actually equated the right to abortion with the right to sit at a lunch counter. See the video and hear him say it.

Abortion as a civil right. Shredding black babies in their mother’s wombs as the equivalent of eating at the same lunch counter as whites! He polluted the entire civil rights agenda in one breathtaking statement.

I can understand if the KKK held out abortion as a strategy to reduce black poverty, but to have such expressed sentiment in certain quarters tolerated by so many black leaders, and to hear nothing from Bond and his Southern Poverty Law Center was ghastly. The deaths and nonexistence of 30 million blacks has done nothing to end poverty in the inner-city, or to end the black-on black violence that make those neighborhoods far more vicious than they were in the Civil Rights era. So, by the calculus of death and nonexistence, the answer is what? MORE death and nonexistence for those currently alive? Clearly not. Death is never the answer.

How such a brilliant man couldn’t see that 30 million fewer blacks means permanent minority status is just beyond imagining. Was his embrace of abortion the price to pay in the Democrat Party for a seat at the table?

The key to ending abortion lies with the African-American community. When blacks have had enough, they will dictate to the DNC that this business of abortion is over, or they will withhold their votes, votes without which democrats cannot survive. And not until that day, will abortion be dropped as a planck at the DNC. If that never comes to pass, then it is hard to see black America being a viable force in two generations. As Lincoln once said in his Young Mens’ Lyceum address:

“This task of gratitude to our fathers, justice to ourselves, duty to posterity, and love for our species in general, all imperatively require us faithfully to perform.

 

“How then shall we perform it?–At what point shall we expect the approach of danger? By what means shall we fortify against it?– Shall we expect some transatlantic military giant, to step the Ocean, and crush us at a blow? Never!–All the armies of Europe, Asia and Africa combined, with all the treasure of the earth (our own excepted) in their military chest; with a Buonaparte for a commander, could not by force, take a drink from the Ohio, or make a track on the Blue Ridge, in a trial of a thousand years.

 

“At what point then is the approach of danger to be expected? I answer, if it ever reach us, it must spring up amongst us. It cannot come from abroad. If destruction be our lot, we must ourselves be its author and finisher. As a nation of freemen, we must live through all time, or die by suicide.”

Adding ALL of the Evidence Against Planned Parenthood: The Real War on Women and Children

60 Minutes.

That’s all it will take. 60 minutes.

In one hour’s time, a documentary film maker can assemble a case so damning, so overwhelming against Planned Parenthood that it is doubtful the giant could survive. Over the past several years there have been several damning undercover sting operations and other revelations about this organization and its members. The problem is that the revelations have been too spaced apart, and the momentary outrage has not been sustainable. This time the trafficking in human body parts has touched a nerve, and just as in the physiology of how nerves fire, the stimulus has to be sufficiently large and sustained.

Here, now, the totality of the case for any interested film maker.

Center for Medical Progress Videos

The Center for Medical Progress, which at this writing is in the midst of revealing its videos of Planned Parenthood discussing aborted baby parts for sale, has a page archiving the undercover videos of Planned Parenthood discussing the altering of abortion techniques to maximize organ and tissue yield, as well as discussing pricing for said parts. That site is here.

Live Action Videos

Lila Rose and Live Action have produced several sting operations over the years that demonstrate a culture of what has been described as criminal negligence where child safety is concerned.

Covering Child Sex Trafficking. In Live Action’s words:

“Investigations found seven Planned Parenthood clinics in four different states were willing to aid and abet the sex-trafficking of minor girls by supplying confidential birth control, STD testing, and secret abortions to underage girls and their traffickers.” The seven videos may be seen here.

Child Sexual Abuse Coverup. In Live Action’s words:

“Investigations found eight Planned Parenthood clinics in five different states were willing to cover-up sexual abuse, disregarding mandatory suspected statutory rape reporting laws. Clinics also provided instructions on how to circumvent parental consent laws.” The eight videos may be seen here.

Gendercide: The systematic killing of girls. In Live Action’s words:

“Nobel Prize-winning economist Amartya Sen estimated that as early as 1990, approximately 100 million women were demographically missing worldwide due to sex-selection abortion, female infanticide, and other such practices. Current estimates now put that number at 200 million missing women and girls globally.

“U.S. Census data and national vital statistics show that indeed, sex-selection is a growing problem in America. Americans are employing sex-selection techniques in their reproductive decisions. A review of census and birth records by Professor Jason Abrevaya of the University of Texas showed that Americans have sex-selected thousands of baby girls.” The five videos of Planned Parenthood willing to selectively abort girls may be seen here.

Deliberate Medical Misinformation. In Live Action’s words:

“In a multi-state undercover investigation Live Action documented Planned Parenthood’s use of unscientific and fabricated medical information to convince women to have abortions. A series of hidden camera videos shot in clinics across the United States reveals the exploitative tactics abortionists and clinicians employ to conceal the truth about abortion from women who most need honest and accurate information. Leading embryologists have denounced Planned Parenthood’s conduct caught on tape as ‘erroneous and scientifically absurd.’ ” The videos may be seen here.

False Mammogram Claims by Planned Parenthood. In Live Action’s words:

“A series of undercover phone calls reveals that contrary to the claims of Planned Parenthood CEO Cecile Richards and other supporters of the nation’s largest abortion chain, the organization does not provide mammograms for women.

“In the tapes, a Live Action actor calls 30 Planned Parenthood clinics in 27 different states, inquiring about mammograms at Planned Parenthood. Every Planned Parenthood, without exception, tells her she will have to go elsewhere for a mammogram, and many clinics admit that no Planned Parenthood clinics provide this breast cancer screening procedure. “We don’t provide those services whatsoever,” admits a staffer at Planned Parenthood of Arizona. Planned Parenthood’s Comprehensive Health Center clinic in Overland Park, KS explains to the caller, ‘We actually don’t have a, um, mammogram machine, at our clinics.'” The video of the calls may be seen here.

Taking Donations Specifically Earmarked for Aborting Black Babies. Live action offers the following transcript of one of several Planned Parenthoods willing to accept money earmarked for aborting a black baby:

Idaho Representative: Autumn Kersey, Director of Development

Idaho Donor: The abortion—I can give money specifically for a black baby, that would be the purpose?

PP Rep: Absolutely. If you wanted to designate that your gift be used to help an African-American woman in need, then we would certainly make sure that the gift was earmarked for that purpose.

Idaho Donor: Great, because I really faced trouble with affirmative action, and I don’t want my kids to be disadvantaged against black kids. I just had a baby; I want to put it in his name.

PP Rep: Yes, absolutely.

Idaho Donor: And we don’t, you know we just think, the less black kids out there the better.

PP Rep: Understandable, understandable.

Idaho Donor: Right. I want to protect my son, so he can get into college

PP Rep: Alright. Excuse my hesitation, this is the first time I’ve had a donor call and make this kind of request, so I’m excited, and want to make sure I don’t leave anything out.

The videos may be seen here.

Planned Parenthood Lying About Botched Abortions. In Live Action’s words:

“Live Action investigators called Planned Parenthood abortion clinics with recent cases of medical emergencies and botched abortions in 7 different states asking if Planned Parenthood’s abortion practice was safe and if women had ever been hurt at the clinics. Not a single Planned Parenthood abortion clinic acknowledged the recent injuries of women.” Listen to the calls here.

For a blog post I’ve written that details how Planned Parenthood has explicitly stated in publications that they seek to remove parental rights as a barrier to children seeking their services, read here. See page 23.

Then There is Planned Parenthood’s advice to children on their right to NOT disclose an HIV status to sex partners, and the right to have sex while drinking and doing drugs:

“You have the right to decide if, when, and how to disclose your HIV status.”

“There are many reasons that people do not share their HIV status. They may not want people to know they are living with HIV because of stigma and discrimination within their community. They may worry that people will find out something else they have kept secret, like they are using injecting drugs, having sex outside of a marriage or having sex with people of the same gender. People in long-term relationships who find out they are living with HIV sometimes fear that their partner will react violently or end the relationship.”

“Some people have sex when they have been drinking alcohol or using drugs. This is your choice.”

Get it all here.

So, whence cometh such vile filth and corruption? Certainly no documentary on Planned Parenthood could be considered complete without a good treatment of its beloved founder, Margaret Sanger, whose name is attached to the organization’s annual award. A number of articles dealing with the eugenic princess and her targeting of blacks in her infamous, “Negro Project.”:

And then there is this little gem in another Planned Parenthood publication, a stated goal:

REMOVAL OF PARENTAL INVOLVEMENT OR SPOUSAL CONSENT LAWS THAT PREVENT YOUNG PEOPLE FROM SEEKING SEXUAL AND REPRODUCTIVE HEALTH SERVICES.

Lest anyone doubt how young Planned Parenthood’s target audience is, try TEN YEARS OLD!! Get the documents here.

The time has come to assemble all of this material in a fast-paced, hard-hitting documentary about these people. Seen in context, it is all overwhelming, and 99% of the American people do not have this overarching perspective.

This article assembles all of the key data. Now who will produce the film that will show the undercover videos, play the undercover audio, and show who is really waging war on women and children in this nation? Now is the time, while CMP has captured the nation’s attention and sparked a revulsion.

Our women and children deserve better than Planned Parenthood.
