Kansas Gov. Kathleen Sebelius has made headlines this week by putting a lid on a law that could help ban late-term abortions. Gov. Sebelius Vetoed SB 218, a legislation approved by large majorities in the Kansas Legislature that would significantly aid the enforcement of existing late-term abortion law. Next week, the Legislature will reconvene to conclude its 2009 session. It is expected that an attempt to override the Governor’s veto will be made.

According to Kansas Catholic Conference:

The governor waited until the very last minute, perhaps in the hope that the United States Senate would confirm her nomination to be secretary of Health & Human Services, thus relieving her of the obligation to act on this legislation. When it became clear that the Senate would not vote on her nomination by today, the governor did the expected – she sided with the abortion industry against the unborn, and against the women who are routinely provided misleading information by that industry.

We hope that the US Senate will closely scrutinize this latest action by the governor, and view it in the context of a long, consistent, and unmistakably clear record of support for the most extreme elements of the abortion industry.

Kansas, despite having one of the strictest late-term abortion laws in the country, is internationally known as a haven for the practice of particularly barbaric late-term abortion procedures – the kind most abortionists will not do. And no one has done more to ensure that Kansas retains its status as sanctuary for the likes of George Tiller than Governor Sebelius.

Kansas law only permits abortions on viable babies in circumstances of grave danger to the mother. Yet every time the life of an unborn child past the point of viability (often well past that point) is ended without any attempt to meet the demands of the law, the will of the people is flouted. Every time a woman is told that a baby with arms, legs, brainwaves, and a beating heart is just a piece of tissue, the abortion industry puts more money in the bank, and politicians like the governor collect another campaign check.

This situation is a moral catastrophe, and utterly out of tune with the values of the people of this state. We are again Bloody Kansas, only now it’s to our shame.

While the abortion happy politicians in the capitol are having a field day vetoing the law, FDA officials however are setting up the ramps to launch their Plan B in the abortion arena, which simply says that pregnancy will be treated as a disorder. CNA said:

The U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) has made the “Plan B” contraceptive available to 17 year-old women without a prescription. One pro-life leader has warned the decision treats pregnancy as a “disease” and could put young women and newly-conceived human beings at risk.

The move follows a March 23 federal court order requiring the drug Levonorgestrel—also known as the “morning after pill”–be made available to girls 17 and older without a prescription. The U.S. government said it would not appeal the decision.

The drug aims to prevent pregnancy when used within 24 hours of sexual intercourse.

Levonorgestrel is a powerful drug, taken in two doses over a 12-hour period. It is 40 times more potent than comparable progestin-only birth control pills (Ovrette) for which a prescription is required.

though the FDA describes “Plan B” as a contraceptive drug, the manufacturer admits that it may also prevent an embryo from implanting in the womb.

“Since it takes several days for the growing embryo to reach the uterine lining and implant in the mother’s womb, the child in his or her second week of life could die as a direct result of Plan B. This is properly understood as an early abortion.”

The manufacturer of “Plan B,” Barr Pharmaceuticals, Inc., may also market the drug to women 17 years and older after applying for and receiving approval from the FDA. The manufacturer had earlier sought to secure over-the-counter access for those 16 and older.

Barr was acquired by the Israeli company Teva Pharmaceutical Industries, Ltd. in December 2008. Teva said sales of “Plan B” have more than doubled since it became available for adults in 2006.

My Take:

If these activities and conspiracies keeps on attacking the unborn child of its right to live, we may very well see now the consequences. What these pharmaceutical companies doesn’t tell their patients and abortion doctors avoid in telling women in a form of informed consent, is the fact that contraception and abortion results to latent infertility. There are already documented cases of women who had gone through abortion and have widely used contraceptives, who cannot anymore give birth when they decided to have their own babies.

If this is the case, and politicians succeeded in this grand scheme of legalizing all forms of abortion methods, then we are all doomed. Global infertility will be a pandemic problem in the near future.

Take the case of the Thalidomide Drug that was peddled during the 50′s, it resulted to babies having no arms and legs. Though I bet that during the drug’s early testing stage, complications were already evident on animals being tested on the drug, yet these companies failed to inform the public about its risk on human pregnancies. The result was a staggering number of Thalidomide children all over the world.

Much as these contraceptives now being peddled by the FDA itself. It makes women think that its just an ordinary morning pill but its actually an abortifacient which will suppress the conception within 24 hours.

Last November, I watched this movie on HBO titled Children of Men. The movies premise was about the earth having all women infertile by an unknown cause. And the last remaining youngest person in the world already died. Until nature fought back a woman who was pregnant came forth from obscurity. Although it was just a movie and it directly avoided in specifying the cause of the infertility, yet its message resounds true and clear on our world: Respect Life.

With our world seems going to that direction, I think history will finally will have its taste of life imitating art.
