A report out of Albuquerque, New Mexico says abortionist Curtis Boyd’s clinic on Encino Place was torched Friday night by two hooded people seen breaking a window and throwing a can of gasoline into the clinic. They drove away in a black van. One room was damaged by fire and the whole building sustained smoke damage.
Saturday’s prayer vigil and protest at Planned Parenthood’s largest abortion mill in the world in Aurora, IL was a huge success with more than a thousand attending and praying that the mill will go away.
If you ever had any doubts about the three Democrat leaders in search of a presidential nomination, Senators Hillary Clinton, Barack Obama and John Edwards, take a gander at them groveling before the powers at Planned Parenthood last week, trying to get the so-called feminist vote.

There’s a big battle going on in Spain, as thousands of protesters led by 20 Catholic Bishops and lay catholic groups demonstrate against a government bill to legalize gay marriage and adoption. The bill passed the lower chamber of Parliament and will be voted on this week by the Senate.
Organizers say one and a half million people attended the protest. Banners read, “I want a Father and a Mother,” and “Family Equals Man Plus Woman.” Yet opinion polls indicated the majority of voters support the bill. Fr. Jose Velasco said the majority of Germans also supported Hitler, but just as Hitler destroyed Germany, this gay bill will destroy the moral fiber of Spain.
The protesters are being accused of discrimination by bill supporters. It appears that the bill will become law.
