Eighteen and pregnant, Sycloria Williams went to an abortion clinic outside Miami and paid $1,200 for Dr. Pierre Jean-Jacque Renelique to terminate her 23-week pregnancy.

Three days later, she sat in a reclining chair, medicated to dilate her cervix and otherwise get her ready for the procedure.

Only Renelique didn’t arrive in time. According to Williams and the Florida Department of Health, she went into labor and delivered a live baby girl.

What Williams and the Health Department say happened next has shocked people on both sides of the abortion debate: One of the clinic’s owners, who has no medical license, cut the infant’s umbilical cord. Williams says the woman placed the baby in a plastic biohazard bag and threw it out.

Police recovered the decomposing remains in a cardboard box a week later after getting anonymous tips.

“I don’t care what your politics are, what your morals are, this should not be happening in our community,” said Tom Pennekamp, a Miami attorney representing Williams in her lawsuit against Renelique (ren-uh-LEEK’) and the clinic owners.

It sounds like 1st degree murder to me and I hope they will be charged, although I am sure President infanticide wont have a problem with this!

America has clearly lost her way when the most innocent of us are discarded like trash.

Nancy Pelosi Encourages Abortion As Method To Limit Financial Burden To Country

During an interview with George Stephanopoulous, Nancy Pelosi defends the portion of trillion dollar so-called stimulus plan which allocates millions of dollars to abortion clinics, and other “family planning” institutions by explaining how it will limit the burden children are having on society.

Yes, seriously!

STEPHANOPOULOS:  Hundreds of millions of dollars to expand family planning services. How is that stimulus?

PELOSI: Well, the family planning services reduce cost. They reduce cost. The states are in terrible fiscal budget crises now and part of what we do for children’s health, education and some of those elements are to help the states meet their financial needs. One of those – one of the initiatives you mentioned, the contraception, will reduce costs to the states and to the federal government.

STEPHANOPOULOS: So no apologies for that?

PELOSI: No apologies. No. we have to deal with the consequences of the downturn in our economy.

____________________________________________________________________________

The unspoken premise of Nancy Pelosi’s statement is frightening!  No matter where you stand on the abortion debate,  the cold and emotionally unattached manner in which she speaks about the manufacturing of society through specific population control should send a chill up your spine.  Pelosi’s statements echo the harsh logic of any of history’s Chinese dictators, or German Fascists.

(*UPDATE*)  It seems that Nancy Pelosi was just the beginning.

(*UPDATE 2*) U.S. U.K. Government’s “Green” Guru States That Two Children Should Be Limit, and anything more is an irresponsible burden.

“COUPLES who have more than two children are being “irresponsible” by creating an unbearable burden on the environment, the government’s green adviser has warned.

Jonathon Porritt, who chairs the government’s Sustainable Development Commission, says curbing population growth through contraception and abortion must be at the heart of policies to fight global warming. He says political leaders and green campaigners should stop dodging the issue of environmental harm caused by an expanding population.

A report by the commission, to be published next month, will say that governments must reduce population growth through better family planning.”

ABC: McCain Backing Away from Abortion Pledge

ABC News says John McCain is backing away from a pledge to moderate the GOP’s platform position on abortion, as extreme social conservatives rattle their sabres.

McCain is on record stating that he’d like the platform to include exceptions for rape, incest, and to save the life of the mother, and the social cons are vehemently opposed.

“There’s a process in place for the delegates to work on the platform and we are going to let that process work itself out,” McCain spokesman Brian Rogers told ABC News. …

“If he were to change the party platform,” to account for exceptions such as rape, incest or risk to the mother’s life, “I think that would be political suicide,” Tony Perkins, the president of the conservative Family Research Council, told ABC News in May. “I think he would be aborting his own campaign because that is such a critical issue to so many Republican voters and the Republican brand is already in trouble.”

While leaving the platform untouched would please many in the GOP’s socially conservative base, it could alienate some of the more moderate voters that McCain is hoping to attract.

“If he doesn’t change the platform, then he’s being the same kind of hypocrite that he accused Bush of being in 2000,” Jennifer Blei Stockman, the co-chairwoman of Republican Majority for Choice, told ABC News in May. “Many people think of him as a moderate,” she added. “But when it comes out that he doesn’t want to change this extreme, right-wing Republican platform, the word ‘moderate’ is going to disappear from any description of McCain.”
