#ChooseLife In response to the University of Michigan's exhibit "4000 Years for
Choice" we are organizing a Tweet-fest to express our
opposition to the ideas presented in the exhibit and our disappointment that
the university would sponsor such a blatantly pro-choice exhibit. I will be
tweeting: Like Racism, Rape, Incest… Abortion should not be celebrated or condoned. #ChooseLife, For a

UPDATE From Dr. Monica Miller,
CPLC regarding efforts in MI with 20 Week Pain-Capable Abortion Ban. Dear Defenders of
Life-- I want to thank you for your many prayers for today's meeting with
Mayor Frank Brock of Lathrup Village-- THE MEETING WAS VERY
SUCCESSFUL. Indeed, I would say that we left the meeting with all that we
could have gotten out of it at this stage of the discussion. Mayor Brock
was very cordial, warm and open -- AND he is in favor of doing something
regarding the 20 week pain-capable ban that we proposed to him-- We
discussed the possible votes on the city council that will determine the
outcome-- and all we need is 3 out of 5- and the mayor is one of those
votes. BUT-- FIRST, and this was expected--- the mayor is going to
run all this by the city attorney. We urged that before any final
decision is made-- especially if they are inclined to NOT go
forward--that the city attorney FIRST talk with Robert Muise of the American
Freedom Law Center who attended today's meeting and has drafted an ordinance to
comply with LV zoning laws. Brock said that he would urged such a
discussion. The mayor said that he expected to get back to us within 30 days. PLEASE PRAY-- we must
pray! We have done all can at this stage of our
efforts! What happens in LV will help us go forward in the
other municipalities!

Bumper Sticker Idea: Have you been
bothered that many American’s who support and promote abortion, are appalled by
the practice of water boarding? There seems to be an inconsistency in that thought.
Well, I think I have the perfect bumper sticker to point out the inconsistency.
"I'd rather be water boarded than
aborted! How about you?”
