Election day: Indiana judicial retention from a pro-life view.

judicial retention | Indiana Right To Life.

The list of Indiana Judges on the ballot for retention is up at the Indiana Right to Life website.

Judge John G Baker - Indiana Circuit Court 5th district: “Ruling in 1982 allowed Baby Doe to be denied a surgical procedure and starved to death in a Bloomington hospital.”

Robert D Rucker, Indiana Supreme Court: Supported a decision that allowed expansion of medicaid funding for abortion to “medically necessary” cases in Humphreys V Planned Parenthood, 2003.
Upheld the Indiana 18 hour waiting period prior to an abortion in Clinic for Women v Brizzi 2005.
He’s half and half.
( Rucker dissented against Steven David’s crazy anti-4th amendment decision.)

Justice Steven David, Indiana Supreme Court, no abortion related rulings found by Indiana RTL. (But he did rule against 4th amendment protections, which is dangerous to human rights for other reasons).

Judge Nancy H Vaidik, Court of Appeals 5th district, ruled that Indiana cannot require the signature of both parents in order for a minor daughter to have an abortion. (This means that a father or stepfather who is abusing a girl could sign for her abortion).

Judge Paul D Mathias, Court of Appeals, Indiana 3rd district – no abortion related decisions detected by Indiana RTL.

Judge Michael P Barnes Court of Appeals of Indiana 3rd district- no abortion related decisions detected by Indiana RTL

Pro-life politician’s rape comment wildly and purposefully distorted

Pro-life politician’s rape comment wildly and purposefully distorted.

This is the Pro-life Vid of the day over at Jill Stanek’s pro-life place.

Richard Mourdock on seeing only “life of the mother” as sufficient excuse for abortion: “I struggled with it myself for a long time, but I came to realize that life is that gift from God. And, I think, even when life begins in that horrible situation of rape, that it is something that God intended to happen.”
Mourdock did not back down when asked to explain his statement:
“What I said was, in answering the question form my position of faith, I said I believe that God creates life. I believe that as wholly and as fully as I can believe it. That God creates life. Are you trying to suggest that somehow I think that God pre-ordained rape? No, I don’t think that. That’s sick. Twisted. That’s not even close to what I said. What I said is that God creates life.”

Pharmer will have to send a another donation to Mourdock’s campaign today.

Not a dime was sent to the Romney campaign because he threw Todd Akin under the bus.

The Republican establishment leadership showed your friendly Pharmer their lack of gonads one too many times, and now there is no use for the party affiliation.

Romney’s response to Mourdock is expected. The only reason to vote for Romney is to get rid of Obama, who is crazy for abortion.

Hopefully Mourdock will continue to stick to his guns with respect to this statement. A pregnancy from rape can produce as big a gift as any other kind of unplanned pregnancy.

Why have people become so offended by the idea that God decides the life and death matters?

The failed control freaks will be identifiable by their reaction to Mourdock’s statement.

One last note: Abortion is frequently and successfully used for concealing the fact of rape. Planned Parenthood is known for assisting with this concealment.

Indiana: Just Say No To Joe Donnelly

Indiana: Ad Exposes Donnelly’s Support for Pro-Abortion Obamacare | LifeNews.com.

The Susan B Anthony list is blasting Senate candidate Joe Donnelly for his support of Obamacare and abortion. As Representative of Indiana’s 2nd district, Donnelly was one of the supposedly pro-life democrat congressmen who rolled over for Obamacare in 2009. He’s now running against Richard Mourdock for the U.S. Senate seat.

Testing: Is the Americans With Disabilities Act only for Legitimate Businesses, Churches and Public Swimming Pools?

Abortion Biz Violating Americans with Disabilities Act | LifeNews.com.

Cathie Humbarger, of Allen County Right To Life is checking on the applicability of the Americans with Disabilities act to Fort Wayne’s abortion business, Women’s Health Organization. Apparently the patients have to trudge down the steps after their procedures.

We already know that legitimate businesses and public swimming pools have to provide access to those with physical limitations. It will be interesting to see if this is another government regulation that doesn’t apply to abortion clinics.

Effort to Undo the Indiana Supreme Court Decision Overturning 4th Amendment Rights

AllGov – News – Indiana First State to Allow Citizens to Shoot Law Enforcement Officers.

Justice Steven David, a Mitch Daniels appointee authored an Indiana Supreme Court decision which ruled that there was no “right to reasonably resist unlawful entry by police officers”.

Governor Daniels has signed legislation which responds to that decision by allowing Indiana residents to shoot law enforcement officers who unlawfully enter their homes. Senator R. Michael Young authored the legislation in order to provide an avenue of defense for citizens against unlawful use of force by public servants.

From Bloomberg : “Young cited a hypothetical situation of a homeowner returning to see an officer raping his daughter or wife. Under the court’s ruling, the homeowner could not touch the officer and only file a lawsuit later, he said. Young said he devised the idea for the law after the court ruling”

The legislation was opposed by the Indiana State Fraternal order of Police, which imagines that it would make a big difference in what happens to police who are entering a home. The NRA, on the other hand, backed the legislation.

Justice Steven David’s initial term is up in November. The voters have a chance to toss him out.

Mitch Daniels has obviously sought to create some distance between himself and his Supreme court appointee with his approval of this new law.

Tea Party is Working to Retire Senators Lugar and Hatch

Tea party activists push to retire Sens. Lugar, Hatch.

Both Dick Lugar and Orrin Hatch have stayed too long in Washington and the Tea Party is working to replace them. Hatch appears to have a better chance of surviving the onslaught. Indiana Democrats are assisting with the destruction of Lugar over such issues as residency and the cost of his hotel stays in Indiana since he has not been a resident since 1977. Lugar has responded by returning some of the cost of his hotel stays, and has changed the address on his voter registration.

Richard Mourdock is closing in on Lugar despite being outspent by the incumbent.

Remember…….. Lugar thought that Sotomayor, and Kagan were acceptable Supreme Court Justices, and that Kathleen Sebelius was a competent and worthy choice to head the Dept. of Health and Human Services. That’s an Obamanation !

Tornado Disasters in Flyover Country – Wanna Help?

U.S. News – At least 28 killed in Indiana, Kentucky, Ohio as tornadoes sweep Midwest, South.

Tornadoes damage Missouri, Southern Illinois, Kansas killing 9

You know what happens when the disasters are here in FLYOVER COUNTRY.
These survivors will be picking themselves up.
Ya, we heard the screaming sirens Down on the Pharm, and the storms passed on either side of us.
We’ve had our own little tornado before, which did a right angle around the Pharmhouse and tore up trees and flipped outbuildings. But that was NOTHING compared to the disasters linked above. The towns are trashed and people are dead.
Pharmer found the closest Catholic Church with a website to two of the most flattened areas, Henryville and Marysville, Indiana. You know your $$$$$$ won’t get wasted IF YOU SEND IT TO ST. MICHAELS. It’s connected to St. Francis Church which is ground zero of the Henryville disaster and they’re using the basement as a shelter.
AAA TORNADO DISASTER RELIEF link will stay on the sidebar.

*Fr Steven Schaftlein, pastor of both parishes, says the ‘best address to send help is St. Michael, 101 St. Michael Drive, Charlestown, IN 47111′, and he’s very appreciative of everyone’s efforts to assist.

Planned Parenthood Created Indiana Girl Scouts Sex Ed Program.

Planned Parenthood Created Indiana Girl Scouts Sex Ed Program | TheBlaze.com.

Beautiful Bloomington* was the academic home of A.C. Kinsey, that kinky professor who messed with his students and called it sex research. It’s not a surprise that this bright blue leftie place would also allow a planned unparenthood sex educator to design a program to get their little girl scouts busy earlier in life.

The Blaze was a bit equivocal in its last coverage of the involvement of Indiana Rep. Bob Morris, who expressed his disgust at the connection of planned parenthood and Girl Scouts of America. It seems that they’ve amassed enough solid evidence that they’re willing to commit themselves and say yes, the two really are connected.

Indiana Right to Life spotted a little detail about the development of a sex ed program for the girl scouts of Bloomington, and 12 surrounding counties.

Leftie city of Bloomington Awarded Ann Reece posthumous recognition as follows:
“Lifetime Contribution Award winner Anne Reese was nominated posthumously by Carol McCord, Barbara Light, Kathryn Brown and Judy Klein. Anne’s career started with Planned Parenthood in Bloomington where she worked for many years as a health and sexuality educator, and helped initiate the Family Life Education program for Girl Scouts ages five to 18 throughout a twelve-county area”

Learn more about why planned parenthood is not the preferred sex educator for normal people HERE and HERE.

*Bloomington, Indiana stands out as the only place, so far, where Pharmer was threatened with arrest (on the campus of Indiana University) for speaking at a prolife students meeting. It’s just that nutty.

Sen Richard Lugar, (R) Indiana: Doesn’t Live Here Anymore | The Daily Caller

Richard Lugar | Indiana Senator | Doesn’t Live Here Anymore | The Daily Caller.

Tea Partier Gary Wright had heard that Richard Lugar does not live in Indiana anymore……… for the past 30 years or so.

He decided to check for himself and found that Lugar is registered as an Indiana voter at the address of a house that he sold shortly after moving to Washington DC in 1977. His driver’s license says that they still live at the 3200 Highwoods Court, Indianapolis address (where Betsy Hughes lives and occasionally receives Lugar’s mail). No one is bothering to turn over the rocks on this fraud.

Supposedly the Indiana Constitution does not require Lugar to live in Indiana in order to be a senator from here. However one wonders what benefits Lugar has obtained from Indiana while a non-resident for the last 30 years. Other elected officials have been put through the mill on this basis.

Remember…. Lugar also thinks that Kathleen Sebelius is a good choice for head of the Dept. of Health and Human Services. Her Dept is the one threatening Indiana’s Medicare/Medcaid funding because we cut off Planned Parenthood’s tax funding.

Indiana panel backs abortion pill limit | The Courier-Journal | courier-journal.com

Indiana panel backs abortion pill limit | The Courier-Journal | courier-journal.com.

Dr. John Stutzman, medical director of Planned Parenthood of Indiana, (and apparently allowed to teach at Indiana University), is not happy with the passage of Senate Bill 72 through the Health Committee. He says that using 200mg of mifepristone for chemical abortion, instead of the FDA recommended 600mg dose is sufficient. Apparently their purpose of reducing the progesterone receptor blocker and increasing the drug that causes violent uterine contractions is to avoid “side effects”. Planned parenthood sends the woman home with double the recommended dose of misoprostil to expel the embryo or fetus dead or alive.

No one is counting the failures which end up at our hospitals to have the abortion job finished up, and mind you, planned parenthood is NOT interested in having to report said failures so they can be tabulated and evaluated. (That requirement had already been removed from the bill.)

Whether the abortion job is finished by the chemical method or by follow up at a hospital (transferring liability to the hospital, and expense to that institution or to us) it is deemed a success at planned parenthood.

Indiana Senate Bill 72

Since the time Pharmer was first informed of current Indiana legislation to regulate the use of abortion drugs, there have been significant changes to the bill.

Of special concern is that no longer a requirement to report adverse events associated with abortion drug use.
Existing forms and services can be used for such reporting with respect to drugs and medical devices, for example:
http://www.fda.gov/downloads/Safety/MedWatch/HowToReport/DownloadForms/ucm082725.pdf

Adverse events associated with or related to childbirth are reportable as such to include the whole period of pregnancy, childbirth and the year after delivery, at the recommendation of the ACOG.
The non reporting of abortion related adverse events and deaths, combined with the more readily reported pregnancy related or associated deaths has led to false statistics comparing the relative risk of childbirth and abortion.
Senate Bill 72 is now structured in such a way as to facilitate a means to convince women that abortion is safer than childbirth. The lack of requirement for reporting abortion drug adverse events serves to worsen the current skewing and misrepresentation of facts, which denies patients the opportunity of giving informed consent.

Useful parts of the bill worth noting: The definition of abortion inducing drug includes “off-label use of drugs known to have abortion inducing properties if the drug is prescribed with the intent of causing an abortion”. (Ch.3 sec.1a)
The bill also requires that the abortionist “follows the drug label protocol for the abortion producing drug. (Ch3. sec 3a-2)
Expect a firestorm from planned parenthood which utilizes mifepristone, RU-486, in an off label manner by using less of the drug (a single 200mg tab) than recommended on the label, (three 200mg tablets) and by using it up to, or at 63 days gestation instead of 49 days.
According to the Mifeprex label, U.S., three x 200mg tabs are to be administered in a single dose, and the patient returns to the clinic in 2 days to take 2 tabs (400mcg) of misoprostil, to expel the human embryo or fetus. Planned Parenthood of Indiana is sending the patients home with four tablets (800mcg) according to their own info.

From Drs Gary and Harrison at Medscape: “The US clinical trial demonstrated a failure rate of 8% at 49 days or less from the last menstrual period (LMP), increasing to 17% at 50-56 days from the LMP, and further increasing to a 23% failure at 57-63 days from the LMP, as established by sonographic criteria………One serious concern raised by this review of AERs is the suggested fetal malformation rate of at least 23% following mifepristone failures that resulted in continuation of a live pregnancy.”

Annals of Pharmacotherapy analysis of mifepristone adverse events reported to FDA 2000-2004.

Meth-Heads Filling Hospitals With Burn Patients

My Way News – AP IMPACT: Meth fills hospitals with burn patients.

Only about 10 percent of meth heads have health insurance, so when they cook themselves while trying to cook their methamphetamine, the burden of care falls upon the hospital. The average cost of care for a meth burn patient is said to be $130,000 dollars. The financial burden of non-recovered hospital expenses has closed down at least 7 burn wards in the U.S.due to insolvency.

The most common means for self immolation among meth heads is the shake and bake method. Opening the 2 liter reaction vessel too soon or having an unplanned leakage can cause an explosion. About 70 injuries related to meth cooking have been reported in Indiana in the last two years, but who knows the real number? The burn victims aren’t too eager to tell the truth about how they were burned.
David Greenhalgh of the University of California, Davis, Burn Center says that 25-35% of the patients there test positive for meth.

Obama Administration Sued, Made New Hampshire Fund Planned Parenthood | LifeNews.com

Obama Admin Sued, Made New Hampshire Fund Planned Parenthood | LifeNews.com.

New Hampshire cancelled a 1.8 million dollar grant to planned parenthood, due to concerns that part of that money would be supporting the abortion portion of their business.

Obama decided to make up for this by granting a 1 million dollar replacement with your federal tax dollars. This was funded through cuts in funding to neighboring health care providers. In addition, this money was provided without the usual process of allowing other agencies to compete for the grant.

New Hampshire Right to Life has been looking into this unusual million dollar grant, and is suing the Sebelius HHS, because this very ‘opaque’ agency refused its Freedom of Information request for information.

The Obama administration has also opposed a Texas attempt to defund planned parenthood.

Indiana is fighting the HHS threat to defund its other health programs because of the state’s decision to defund the country’s largest abortion provider.

The answer is: YES your federal tax dollars are being used to fund abortion. Obama is fulfilling his promise to keep ABORTION at the center of his health care program.

Indiana Contracted the Chicago Disease: Forgeries Got Obama on 2008 Ballot

Indiana 2008 Presidential Primary Election Fraud Probe Heats Up | Fox News.

An investigation into 2008 election fraud has picked up steam in Indiana. It seems that quite a large number of Democrat voters did not sign the petitions to put Obama on the ballot, although the papers show their names and addresses.

Presidential candidates only need 500 signatures from each of 9 districts in Indiana to get on the Ballot. Obama couldn’t manage 500 real ones so his people apparently fudged them.

Up to seven people are being investigated for involvement in a fraud incident in the South Bend area of Indiana. It appears that the currently assigned fall guy for this scheme is an independent contractor and democrat party volunteer, Dustin Blythe.

Indiana Vouchers Boost Enrollment in Catholic Schools

Ind. vouchers prompt thousands to change schools.

Maybe it’s good that some kids can use Indiana State Vouchers to attend the private school of their choice.

Maybe it’s good that most of those vouchers are being utilized for Catholic School attendance.

Why does Pharmer say MAYBE??

Because the government always tries to control the institutions for which it supplies funding. So what does Indiana have in store for (additional) control of Catholic schools?? Time will tell.

Indiana Appeals Decision Against Planned Parenthood De-Funding Law | LifeNews.com.

Indiana is set to challenge the injunction set by Judge Tanya Walton Pratt against defunding of abortion.

It is also challenging the US health and human services decision to block amendments to the state medicaid plan.

Both cases will wind up in the US 7th Circuit court of appeals in Chicago.

Live Action Does it Again….. Indiana Planned Parenthood serves less than 1 % of medicaid patients. Listen to the various Indiana Planned Parenthood clinic workers informing that the care they provide is available elsewhere.

Planned Parenthood of Indiana to Stop Treating Medicaid Patients

Planned Parenthood staff taking furlough to save money » Evansville Courier & Press.

While the court case concerning Indiana’s new law defunding abortion clinics is decided, Indiana planned parenthood is closing its clinics for a day, and stopping services to its 9300 Medicaid patients.

There is no expectation for the supporters of planned parenthood to make up the 1.3 million dollar per year shortfall to allow free care for the underprivileged.

Things are not the same for this organization as it is for the pro-life crisis pregnancy care centers.

Obama Sez: His ‘Healthcare Doesn’t Fund Abortions’, He Will Force the States to Fund It.

“One more misunderstanding I want to clear up — under our plan, no federal dollars will be used to fund abortions, and federal conscience laws will remain in place,” the president said in an address to a joint session of Congress to sell health care reforms. -September 10, 2009 FOXNews.com

Obama’s intention, as expressed to the State of Indiana, is that he will force the states to fund abortion with their taxpayer dollars.

The Obama Dept of Health and Human Services says that the Indiana decision to remove tax funding of abortion providers, denies needed health care services to medicaid recipients. Indiana has 28 Planned Parenthood clinics and many hundreds of other qualified providers to deliver real health care to women in the 21 counties affected by the defunding of abortion clinics. The argument from the HHS is that defunding planned parenthood restricts choice of providers to patients dependent on medicaid funds for their treatment. (Pharmer notes: this will be the ultimate effect of Obamacare on everyone). Here’s the Letter from the Obama HHS medicaid director Donald Berwick to Indiana’s counterpart, Patricia Casanova.

If Indiana stops funding abortion clinics, as the Federal government is supposed to have done, the Obama administration intends to cut off federal funding for all medicaid patients in the state of Indiana. His Dept of Health and Human Services, run by the radically pro-abortion Kathleen Sebelius is expected to threaten all the states similarly.

The message is loud and clear. We fully understand that providing abortion is a prime directive of the Democrat Party, and its importance supercedes that of all other health care.

Perhaps the states will tire of the federal usurpation of their rights, and dictatorial control by the federal government. It appears thus far that Indiana will be putting up a fight.

Let’s hope the state doesn’t cave as Texas did to the TSA gropers.

Indiana State House Dems Run Away

Exodus: Dems trigger Statehouse showdown | The Indianapolis Star | indystar.com.

Faced with a similar type of choice as their counterparts in Wisconsin, to serve their Union Bosses or to serve the interests of the people, the Indiana House Dems have turned tail and run. This has stopped legislative functions in the Indiana House which requires a quorum of two thirds to function.

There is an obvious problem with collective bargaining in public service functions, which has come to include coercing union membership, and threatening those who oppose their agenda with violence.

Those who claim to serve the public, and take tax payer dollars for doing so, have an obligation to remain on the job. Public service unions have repeatedly violated our trust, most egregiously in the area of education, and most famously walking off the job and failing to provide essential services, as in New York, during the ice storm, and using fraudulent physician signed sick excuses, and co-opting their students for protests as in Wisconsin.

House Votes to Defund Obamacare and Planned Parenthood

House blocks funding for health care law – On Politics: Covering the US Congress, Governors, and the 2012 Election – USATODAY.com.

Congressional Republicans are fairly productive today, Let’s hope they keep up the pace. Attached to the bill that will keep the government running are amendments to defund IRS collection of mandatory health care payments, an spending of the Dept of Health and Human Services on Obamacare. They should also pinch off Kathleen Sebelius’s salary ;-).

http://www.politico.com/news/stories/0211/49830.html

Funding for Abortion and Planned Parenthood, the nations largest abortion provider which has been a prime feature of this blog in the last month, has been cut off. This has been a special project of Indiana’s Mike Pence. Be sure to watch some wonderful videos shot at Planned Parenthoods if you haven’t seen them. Scroll down. The New York and New Jersey videos are the best.

http://www.nationaljournal.com/house-passes-amendment-to-block-funds-for-net-neutrality-order-20110217

Funding for the implemenatation of the mis-named net neutrality has also been blocked.

Indiana Right to Life Sets National Precedent with Resolution Denying Democrat Endorsements – Christian Newswire

Hot off the The Christian newswire, Indiana Right to Life has set a policy unlike any other prolife group thus far. The group will endorse no democrat political candidates. Prior to this, the group had abandoned hope of finding a suitable prolife democrat for the Indiana house, but their policy now universally abandons the Dems as a whole. This results from the Indiana congressional Democrats abandoning their prolife interests entirely, in favor of Obamacare.

Read the Indiana Right to Life proclamation below.

“Whereas the Democratic Party officially endorses the right to unrestricted abortion on demand; andWhereas Democratic leadership continues aggressively to advance federal policies that undermine the right to life of unborn children; andWhereas Congressman Brad Ellsworth, Congressman Baron Hill, and Congressman Joe Donnelly betrayed the trust of pro-life Hoosiers by voting for the pro-abortion federal health care reform bill; andWhereas the Democratic caucus in the Indiana House, under the leadership of Speaker Pat Bauer, continues to block all legislation aimed at limiting, restricting, and reducing abortions in the state of Indiana; andWhereas candidates of the Democratic Party are responsible for the policies and actions of the party and its leadership;Be it resolved that the Indiana Right to Life Political Action Committee will grant no endorsements to any Democratic candidates for any public office.”
