Cross-posted over at PoliticalVindication! It's not often we get a glimpse of what goes on behind the closed doors of an abortion clinic. Planned Parenthood, accused routinely of callously profiting off of a service far more deadly than flavored cigarettes or Big Pharma , have hit hard times.

Charlie Butts - OneNewsNow - 11/5/2009 6:20:00 AM A legal opinion is sought in Texas concerning use of RU-486 for abortions.

I previously reported that Bryan , TX , Planned Parenthood director Abby Johnson quit earlier this month after seeing an abortion on ultrasound and being forced to push abortion to increase profits. Despite PP's legal gag order, Johnson is revealing inner workings of the mill. You can see by the PP ad above (click to enlarge) that what she's saying is true.

I want you to think about how mothers think of their unborn babies. Normally they have loving and considerate thoughts for the baby. It's not unusual for mothers to speak to their unborn children, and for these unborn children to respond. Meet Maricruz. She's the lady in the wheelchair: Twenty-one years ago, her mother tried to abort her. This was an attempted chemical abortion; her mother took a pill,...

Clay Shirky points us to a column from a few months back by Marcia Angell, which explains why clinical research on drugs isn't even remotely trustworthy , as it all-too-often seems to involve doctors who have serious conflicts: Or consider Dr. Alan F.

I first heard the news on the radio, most probably Radio-5-lies , that a doctor had been found guilty of trying to poison his ex-lover. The story explained how he had tried to induce an abortion in her by dosing her drinks containing prescription drugs: the drugs weren't soluble. They left a white powder in the bottom of her drink (orange juice) which analysis revealed to be an abortion drug. Poirot's...

There is a lot of misconceptions about mifepristone, also known as RU-486 or the abortion pill. Many on the anti-choice side say that mifepristone is the same as emergency contraception, which is also known as Plan B, but they are not the same thing. Mifepristone is a steroid that is used to induce abortion. [...]

I remember reading a primer on Queensland history, and being struck at how traditionally conservative, even authoritarian, the politics there have been. That tradition is highlighted with the abortion lightning-rod Leach case: A teenager faces seven years in prison after being ordered to stand trial for organising her own home abortion in the first such prosecution in Australia in over half a century....
