AP headline over at the Detroit News: Study: More than 600,000 people killed by 2nd-hand smoke every year. Shock! Outrage! Ban smoking! Torches and pitchforks! The study itself is a farce because you simply cannot gauge how much 2nd hand smoke someone breathes, much less a total number for the entire planet. But 'scientists' did just that and then:

...estimated that passive smoking causes about 379,000 deaths from heart disease, 165,000 deaths from lower respiratory disease, 36,900 deaths from asthma and 21,400 deaths from lung cancer a year.

It isn't an estimate in the sense that they interpolated available data. It is a fabrication. A figment of someone's imagination. Here is a far bigger number that isn't a figment of anyone's imagination because it causes death instantly - 42 million babies die each year at the hands of abortionists. Why doesn't the AP wring its wrists and gnash their teeth in opining that abortion be banned rather than smoking because of so many deaths? In fact, abortion is the #3 cause of death worldwide after heart disease and stroke (the WHO of course doesn't list abortion, but just check the numbers).

I bet most readers don't know that the #1 risk factor for getting breast cancer in women is abortion. Breast cancer results in about 500,000 deaths annually. So pretty much the secondary effects of abortion (2nd hand abortion?) are just as bad as the secondary effects of smoking. Why doesn't the AP chew on that for a while?

NELSON SOLD OUT

Politico reports......
Sen. Mary Landrieu got the "Louisiana Purchase." Sen. Ben Nelson got the federal government to pick up most his state's future Medicaid tab -- forever.

As part of the deal to win Nelson's support, the federal government will pay for Nebraska's new Medicaid recipients. It's a provision worth about $45 million over the first decade......

Nelson also struck a deal on abortion funding that allows states to prohibit abortion coverage in the new insurance exchanges and requires that health plans that provide abortion services segregate the premiums from federal funds so that taxpayer money doesn't pay for abortions.
That means that the companies will still be perform abortions, but THIS money over here won't pay for abortions, just THIS other money over here will pay for abortions.
What a load of CROCK.

Mother kills newborn, can’t be charged

The caller said a woman in her early 20s was in labor. When deputies arrived, they discovered the baby had actually been born around 1:00a.m., about ten hours earlier. Investigators say the baby was already dead when deputies got there.
Investigators tell WSLS the baby’s airway was still blocked. They say the baby was under bedding and had been suffocated by her mother. Investigators say because the mother and baby were still connected by the umbilical cord and placenta, state law does not consider the baby to be a separate life. Therefore, the mother cannot be charged.
“In the state of Virginia as long as the umbilical cord is attached and the placenta is still in the mother, if the baby comes out alive the mother can do whatever she wants to with that baby to kill it.“, says Investigator Tracy Emerson. “She could shoot the baby, stab the baby. As long as it’s still attached to her in some form by umbilical cord or something it’s no crime in the state of Virginia.“
The Campbell County Sheriff’s Office and Commonwealth’s Attorney’s office worked unsuccessfully to get the law changed after another baby died in the county in a similar case. Emerson says they asked two delegates and one state senator to take the issue up in the General Assembly. He says the three lawmakers refused because they felt the issue was too close to the abortion issue.

Republican State Senator Steve Newman announced today that the Division of Legislative Services has begun drafting legislation to ensure that a life cannot be legally taken after a child is born not withstanding its connection to the umbilical cord.

Planned Parenthood director, Abby Johnson quits to support life

KBTX Reports.......
According to (former Planned Parenthood director, Abby )Johnson , the non-profit was struggling under the weight of a tough economy, and changing it’s business model from one that pushed prevention, to one that focused on abortion.

“It seemed like maybe that’s not what a lot of people were believing any more because that’s not where the money was. The money wasn’t in family planning, the money wasn’t in prevention, the money was in abortion and so I had a problem with that,” said Johnson.

Johnson said she was told to bring in more women who wanted abortions, something the Episcopalian church goer recently became convicted about. …

Johnson now supports the Coalition For Life, the pro-life group with a building down the street from Planned Parenthood. Coalition volunteers can regularly be seen praying on the sidewalk in front of Planned Parenthood. Johnson has been meeting with the coalition’s executive director, Shawn Carney, and has prayed with volunteers outside Planned Parenthood.
