Bart Stupak signed on to ObamaCare after President Obama gave him an executive order and his promise that taxpayer money would not be spent on abortions. And as everyone but Stupak expected, neither of those commitments is being honored: The Obama administration has officially approved the first instance of taxpayer funded abortions under the new [...]

Television ad promoting abortion services runs in Britain tonight
by Kim Priestap on 24. May, 2010 in Abortion, health care
For the first time anywhere, a British abortion provider Marie Stopes International will run an ad promoting its abortion services on British prime time television. Needless to say, the advertisement is creating a lot of controversy. While most Brits support access to legalized abortion, many become queasy at the thought of abortion being promoted on [...]
Bart Stupak announces he’s voting yes
by Kim Priestap on 21. Mar, 2010 in Abortion, health care
When Bart Stupak strode behind the podium for his 4pm presser, one the people at his side was Marcy Kaptur. She had already announced this morning that she is voting yes, so I knew immediately that he was announcing that he will be voting yes as well. He explained that he and his “pro-life” colleagues [...]
Get ready. The Democrats are going to Slaughter Democracy
by Kim Priestap on 12. Mar, 2010 in Abortion, Democrats, Life matters, Politics, health care
Ace of Spades posted some alarming news. Nancy Pelosi says that the Democrats are going to use the Slaughter Rule to pass the Senate ObamaCare bill and the vote is set for next week. In case you’re unfamiliar, the Slaughter Rule is named after Louise “she wore her dead sister’s dentures” Slaughter and it works [...]
Video: the second Tebow Super Bowl ad
by Kim Priestap on 07. Feb, 2010 in Abortion, Life matters
Here’s the original ad that garnered all the attention. It’s a cute ad with Tim tackling his mom as she talks about his being her miracle baby whom she still worries about. As I said in the post below, the pro-abortion groups should be feeling pretty stupid about now after all their screaming that a [...]
Video: the first Tebow Super Bowl ad
by Kim Priestap on 07. Feb, 2010 in Abortion, Life matters
This is the first of two Super Bowl ads that Tim Tebow and his mother Pam filmed for Focus on the Family. This one is running during the pre-game shows. As you will see it’s completely innocuous and doesn’t even mention the word abortion. Instead Pam talks about her miracle baby, Tim, and then the [...]
“Here’s what we do need more of: Tebows”
by Kim Priestap on 02. Feb, 2010 in Abortion, Life matters
I’m as happily surprised as Kathryn Jean Lopez to find this piece by Sally Jenkins at the Washington Post: I’m pro-choice, and Tebow clearly is not. But based on what I’ve heard in the past week, I’ll take his side against the group-think, elitism and condescension of the “National Organization of Fewer and Fewer Women [...]
New technology lets pregnant moms hold lifesize model of their unborn babies
by Kim Priestap on 28. Jun, 2009 in Abortion, Life matters
This is a remarkable new technology. In the UK when you go to get an ultrasound, you can get a lifesize model of your unborn baby: It’s a defining moment in a parent’s life: Seeing their unborn child’s image on an ultrasound for the first time. Now pregnant women could have the chance to hold [...]
Dr. Tiller the baby killer has been Murdered
by Kim Priestap on 31. May, 2009 in Abortion, Life matters
This is awful. Dr. George Tiller was a killer. He killed countless numbers of unborn babies, but he should have had his medical license taken away, not murdered. The perpetrator has been arrested: Sedgwick County 911 dispatchers are confirming that the Johnson County Sheriff’s Department has arrested a possible suspect in Dr. George Tiller’s [...]
I got goosebumps

CatholicVote has an ad that hits me right in my soft spot. It’s a great ad in that it is so simple yet packs a punch with its delivery. Watch:
I'm Kim Priestap
I'm a Reagan conservative and believe in his core principles as outlined by Jeffrey Lord in The American Spectator:
1. The idea that an individual was and should always be the master of his or her own destiny.
2. The belief in the unique character and powers of every human being and their personal opinions.
3. A belief in freedom under law, as opposed to the concept of modern liberalism that power is everything.
4. A belief that collectivism and the centralizing of power in Washington threatened Americans with a loss of freedom in their own communities and daily lives.
5. A belief in the individual over bureaucracy.
6. That modern liberalism has, in the words of Whittaker Chambers, a "vindictiveness...of temper."
7. That, as Reagan wrote, "we cannot diminish the value of an entire category of human life -- the unborn -- without diminishing the value of all human life."
8. That we will all die, but what makes the difference, as Reagan once said, is what we die for. That there are things worth dying for, and peace, alas, can never be purchased at any price but strength.
9. That freedom belongs to every individual by divine right.
10. That freedom is better than control.
