Update (2/25): Yesterday I posted a video Live Action recorded in June 2008, which showed a Wisconsin Planned Parenthood worker telling who she believes is an underage pregnant teen not to reveal that her boyfriend is an adult.
Abortion mill workers in Wisconsin must report statutory rape. The story appeared in the local media earlier this week. Defending her abortion mill, CEO Teri Huyck said the woman posing as a pregnant teen didn’t give her name (…therefore, no requirement to report the crime?).
But Lila Rose did give a name. It’s possible Huyck didn’t see the video. If you’re going on the air to deny that your clinic violated the law, wouldn’t it be wise to watch the video?

How thick can you get? Planned Parenthood workers are having a hard time catching on. If a teenager comes into your clinic and says she’s pregnant by her adult boyfriend, stop talking immediately and ask somebody, if you don’t know, what the law requires. By all means, don’t ignore it or suggest she cover it up. If you do either, you’re covering it up. Really, it’s not rocket surgery.
If a woman wants to kill her baby, believe me, it’ll get done. Not cover-up required.
If you had your baby killed around 1980 in West Philadelphia, heads up. Your dead baby may be among the frozen “late-term” fetuses found at an abortion mill. (Source)
I deleted the text of this post (although the archived version is somewhere out there), something I rarely do. I don’t want to write about this woman anymore. I said what I wanted to say about her and the case in the Duke “Rape” Case archives.
As part of her undercover stings at Planned Parenthood offices, Lila Rose of Live Action recorded employees (including a “doctor”) lying about fetal development and advising the “underage” Lila Rose to lie about her adult “boyfriend’s” age.
One of the clinics, Birmingham Planned Parenthood, has been put on probation for killing the unborn babies of minors without complying with the parental notification law. Steven Ertelt at Life News asserts that the minors were “obviously victims of statutory rape.” Lila Rose’s tape prompted state officials to investigate the abortion mill.
In other news, did you see the Tim Tebow Super Bowl ads? To call Focus on the Family‘s pro-life message mild would be an overstatement. I didn’t expect to hear the Gospel, of course, but I expected a stronger message with a clear focus on Pam Tebow choosing to give her baby a chance to live, because his unborn life was precious.
Well, considering the kind of world we’re living in, it’s a miracle anything with Focus on the Family’s stamp on it made prime time. The ads may well plant a seed, and they just might be forerunners of explicit pro-life messages on TV.
At the very least, Focus on the Family and the pro-life movement got a lot of publicity from women’s groups raising a ruckus, and we’re clear that these women frown on the choice to keep, rather than kill, an unborn baby. Beyond odd.
Update: A second Tim Tebow/Focus on the Family ad will air before the game starts. So ad #2 will air before the big game, and ad #1 will air during. *** I know we pro-lifers keep talking and talking and blogging and writing about Tim Tebow. We can’t help it!!!

Check out this 22-year-old giving the closing prayer at today’s National Prayer Breakfast: When I was his age, I was a fornicating, unambitious drunk (sounds really bad when I put it that way; wait a second…it was!) who wouldn’t have spoken about anything in front of anybody, no matter how much you paid me. What [...]
Update: The pro-life message is wonderful, but I’m hoping the Tim Tebow Super Bowl ad somehow smuggles in the Gospel. CBS wouldn’t allow it, of course, but perhaps some of his testimony comes through. *** Great day in the morning! I can hardly believe my eyes. The New York Times calls pro-abortion groups’ shrieking about [...]
