Rosie O’Donnell: “I’d Like to Take My Period Blood and Smear It All Over [Pro-Life People’s] Faces”

An interesting story from www.lifenews.com about Rosie O'Donnell. This follows this post about investigating Planned Parenthood.For two very interesting books click HERE.

Rosie O’Donnell: “I’d Like to Take My Period Blood and Smear It All Over [Pro-Life People’s] Faces”

National Sarah Zagorski       Washington, DC



Today, comedian Rosie O’Donnell said “women’s rights“ are under attack in America and that politicians are undoing all the advances abortion activists have made. The Hill reports that O’Donnell told Jenny Hutt on SiriusXM’s radio program that she believes there is a war on women. She said, “Bigger than any specific people, there is a war on women that is happening in this country. Women fought for equality in this country, and right now, politically, it’s being taken away from us.”
Then, unbelievably, O’Donnell said she would like to do this to pro-lifers: “I’d like to take my period blood I no longer have and write, ‘you’re all assh—s.’ I’d like to smear it all over some people’s faces.”
Additionally, during the interview with Hutt, she said that London Marathoner Kiran Ganhi’s decision to run without a tampon while menstruating is a critical demonstration for women’s rights.
Although O’Donnell didn’t mention the Planned Parenthood scandal specifically, it is likely she is referring to pro-life Senate Republicans who tried to defund the abortion company in light of videos showing their top executives haggling over the price of aborted babies’ body parts. Unfortunately, Senate Democrats defeated the legislation even though the videos expose Planned Parenthood’s complete disregard for human life and countless potential violations of federal law.
As LifeNews previously reported, O’Donnell recently canceled her plans to adopt another child after finding out that he faced health problems. Earlier this year, O’Donnell separated from her wife, Michelle Rounds, and news reports reveal that the pair plans to divorce. In fact, right now they are in the middle of an ugly custody battle for their daughter, Dakota, who was born in 2013.
Dakota’s biological mother, Jami Weaver, had agreed to carry another child for the couple but their arrangement was canceled when O’Donnell learned the child had gastroschisis, which is a birth defect of the abdominal wall that causes the bowl to protrude into the abdomen. According to the Center for Disease Control (CDC), about 1,871 babies are born each year in the United States with gastroschisis. Weaver explained, “Rosie told me she could not handle having a special needs child.”
However, when Weaver delivered Dakota and was planning to have her tubes tied, O’Donnell asked her to wait. She said, “When I was walking around the hospital, trying to induce labor with Dakota, Rosie asked me not to go through with having my tubes tied, which I’d planned to do. They said they wanted me to have another child for them in the future. When I later found out I was carrying a boy, I emailed them to say I needed to know they were on board, because otherwise I would have an abortion.”
O’Donnell responded and said, “Don’t do that!”
Keep up with the latest pro-life news and information on Twitter.
Unfortunately, after the birth defect was detected, O’Donnell said she did not want to continue with the adoption even though doctors said they could fix it with surgery. Weaver concluded, “Rosie said that she’d had a previous relationship with a girlfriend who had several kids, most of whom had ‘issues’ including autism. Rosie and Michelle weren’t the warm people I thought they were… I just felt like I was a dog breeding puppies for Rosie.”

World News and Trends- Teen ethics: a challenge for parents

An interesting article from http://www.ucg.org/ about teen ethics. This follows this post about being good. For a free magazine subscription or to get this book for free click HERE! or call 1-888-886-8632.

World News and Trends- Teen ethics: a challenge for parents

Printer-friendly version


Almost half of American teens have stolen, and most admit to cheating and lying, according to a survey of middle—and high-school students. At the same time most also say that "good character" is important.

The survey, conducted by the Josephson Institute for Ethics, found that 47 percent of high-school teens admitted to stealing from a store within the last year. Seventy percent confessed to cheating on a school test, and 92 percent admitted they had lied to parents. The survey also found that older teens were significantly more likely to have stolen, cheated and lied than younger teens.
"There's no evidence that they're moral mutants or that they're inherently different than any other generation, but they are cheating and lying more," said Michael Josephson, president of the nonprofit Josephson Institute for Ethics. (Michael Josephson was featured in an interview in the November-December 1996 Good News .)
J. Angelo Corlett, founding editor in chief of the Journal of Ethics, warns: "It should sound an alarm that people don't take ethics seriously in our society, and that's been the case for some time." Mr. Corlett added that the survey reflects parents' ability to instill ethics in their children and noted that parents who teach strong moral values face powerful outside influences to the contrary.

Miley in 'Sex and the City: The Movie' Sequel

An interesting post from http://blog.thesource4ym.com about Miley Cyrus for you to share with parents that you know!

Miley in 'Sex and the City: The Movie' Sequel
I'm DONE sharing my two cents about Miley- I'll just report the facts. Last time I defended her, she showed up the next day at the Teen Choice Awards... uh... well... just click here if you don't know.
And now, Miley seems to have made another "interesting" decision, the decision to cameo in the sequel to Sex in the City: The Movie (The MPAA gave the first movie an 'R' rating "for strong sexual content, graphic nudity and language")
Let me back up. Back in 2008 Miley shared with her fans (dare I remind you- girls aged between 6 and 14) that her favorite TV show is HBO's Sex and the City and she wished that her own Disney kids show could be more like it. (read her exact words here)
Last month, rumors began surfacing that Miley might show up in a cameo in the Sex and the City: The Movie sequel. Now those rumors are confirmed. Miley is going to be in the film as herself, showing up on the red carpet wearing the same dress as Kim Cattrall's character in the show, Samantha.
Sigh.
Nice collar!
Okay, okay. No other comments from me about that.
I just think that youth workers and parents need to keep in mind that this young lady is definitely a role model to our kids, specifically our young girls. As I type this, her "Party in the USA" song has made it to #1 yet again on iTunes. Miley's influence is only growing.
She's in the limelight. The question is, "What are our kids seeing in that light?"

This Week's Cultural Challenge: Miley Cyrus and Trampy Teen Idols‏ *BUMPED*

A cultural article from Rebecca Hagelin of www.HowToSaveYourFamily.com about the Teen Choice Music Awards.

Culture Challenge of the Week: Miley Cyrus and Trampy Teen Idols

Moms everywhere are aghast at teen idol Miley Cyrus' recent pole dancing and exaltation of Britney Spears as her hero. The "Hannah Montana" superstar morphed overnight from a bubbly starlet into just another trashy singer, leaving moms feeling betrayed.Many thought they had finally found a "Hollywood type" their daughters could look up to.

I visited a friend last year and marveled at the wall-to-wall posters of Hannah Montana that adorned her 10 year-old daughter's room. Like millions of other little girls, Hannah was her hero. From her clothes, music, and dance moves, to her hairstyle, this little girl (and her mom) were really "in to" Hannah.Then came the photo of Miley sprawled across a boy, with her bright green bra in clear view. Next, the 15-year-old posed in nothing but a sheet for the cover of Vanity Fair. After a public outcry, the teen and her superstar dad Billy Ray apologized saying the photographer had tricked them. Right. The sorrow only came when parents protested en masse.Given that moms are desperate for role models for their daughters, we quickly forgave, only to be let down again this week when Miley pole danced her way as the heir apparent of the cute-girl-gone-trashy super star phenomenon.
Left in her wake? Millions of pre-teen girls who are left thinking they have to be sex objects to "make it" in life.
How To Save Your Family and daughters from being used
Face the facts: There is a pattern here that will not change as long as we fail to recognize that our little girls are being used.The mass marketers of Hollywood-hype know that today's youth spend some 200 billion dollars a year of their own money on trinkets, music and all the accessories that go with it. They also know that pre-teen girls are easily manipulated and that more than anything else, they want to be popular as they grow into young adults. So, they discover cute, talented young girls, and make them superstars by playing on your daughter's dreams of glitz. They then morph the "wholesome" starlets into trampy sex stars as they grow older, hoping to take the dollars of your girls with them.They aren’t just turning the star into a tramp; their goal is to morph your daughter, too.The transition happens at lightning speed. After all, there are only four years between the innocence of 12 and the sultriness needed by age 16 to keep the big bucks flowing.
History repeats itself.
You know what happened to teen idol Britney Spears. America's little girls and their moms swooned and spent millions on Britney fashions. However, just as the Britney wannabes reached critical mass, the star's light started to short circuit. Her sexy ways quickly turned into bizarre behavior, drug problems and a raunchy attitude.
Not to worry, "High School Musical's" Vanessa Hudgens was there to take her place. But just as Vanessa hit her zenith in the eyes of our little girls, explicit photos and other sexual revelations about her captured the headlines.
Down came Vanessa, and up went the posters of the twinkling, sparkly Miley Cyrus.Miley has made the transition to tramp, too. And millions of preteen girls have, once again, been manipulated into believing that being trampy is not only normal, but is the only way to succeed.

It's time for moms to wake up and protect our little girls from being used. Find other moms who are sick of the abuse. It only takes a few friends to create your own sub-culture within the madness of the crazy pop culture. Finding allies is one of the most effective ways to fight back and win. My book, 30 Ways in 30 Days to Save Your Family, is designed to help you do just that.
