<\/div>

We’ve been\u00a0dealing with<\/a>\u00a0a\u00a0downpour of lies<\/a>\u00a0from NARAL this week, but the end is finally in sight. \u00a0Here it is, the third and final chapter in which we destroy the rest of their\u00a0malicious attack on crisis pregnancy centers<\/a>.<\/p>\n

Sin #10: CPCs underhandedly try to get women to delay their decision until they’ve missed the legal window for abortion.<\/strong><\/p>\n

NARAL condemns anonymous CPC volunteers in New York and Maryland for “falsely” telling women they had a lot of time to think about abortion because it’s legal throughout all nine months, when in reality laws generally put the cutoff at viability or earlier. What NARAL doesn’t mention: under current controlling judicial precedent, late-term bans must still allow a health exception so broad as to be effectively meaningless<\/a>. The CPCs’ (alleged) advice is correct.\u00a0<\/p>\n

Sin #11: CPCs “lie to women about the likelihood of miscarriage.”<\/strong><\/p>\n

[A]\u00a0volunteer at a Maryland CPC advised that \u201c30% of\u00a0women naturally miscarry, so there was no point\u00a0in rushing to get an abortion.\u201d That is blatantly\u00a0false. The American College of Obstetricians and\u00a0Gynecologists puts the actual number at half that,\u00a0with about 15% of known pregnancies ending\u00a0in miscarriage.<\/em><\/p>\n

Actually, a\u00a02005\u00a0Washington Post<\/em>\u00a0piece<\/a>\u00a0by biomedical journalist\u00a0Jon Cohen argues that miscarriage is woefully under-studied, with the 15% number an underestimate that “refers only to ‘clinical’ pregnancies — those confirmed by a pregnancy test at a doctor’s office.” He instead takes as “authoritative” a New England Journal of Medicine study from the ’80s that puts the number at\u2014guess what?\u201431%.<\/p>\n

So the Maryland CPC neither pulled the number out of a hat nor got it from some right-winger cooking the books. There are substantive, nonpartisan reasons from respected mainstream sources behind it. Whoever is ultimately correct,\u00a0one thing is certain: Cohen’s examination of the evidence shows far more of a genuine desire to learn the truth than NARAL’s.<\/p>\n

Investigators in Massachusetts were told, \u201cjust\u00a0because you are pregnant\u00a0doesn’t\u00a0mean you\u2019ll\u00a0stay pregnant,\u201d and that \u201cthe good news\u201d\u00a0about a\u00a0positive pregnancy test is that the miscarriage rate\u00a0is so high. One CPC said that \u201c50% of pregnancies\u00a0end in miscarriage.\u201d<\/em><\/p>\n

Here, NARAL seems to be employing a bit of misdirection. While it’s true that miscarriage among known pregnancies is much lower, 50% is indeed<\/a>\u00a0the rate of spontaneous abortion before women know they’re pregnant. Factor in the fact that pro-aborts\u00a0define pregnancy differently<\/a>\u00a0than how most OB\/GYNs do, and the volunteer’s statement is entirely true.<\/p>\n

Sin #12: CPCs “emotionally manipulate” by describing abortion candidly.<\/strong><\/p>\n

Documented throughout many investigations,\u00a0CPC staffers intentionally refer to the fetus as a\u00a0\u201cbaby\u201d and the woman as a \u201cmom.\u201d They use plastic\u00a0fetal models (often labeled inaccurately) or videos\u00a0to show development, and refer to abortion as\u00a0\u201cmurder\u201d or \u201ckilling.\u201d<\/em><\/p>\n

An investigator in Montana reported, \u201cI felt unprepared for the graphic nature of\u00a0the video which demonstrated in detail a doctor performing an abortion. It only\u00a0showed the procedure, not the woman. The movie focuses on showing fingers, toes,\u00a0arms, and assembling them together at the end while playing horror movie-type\u00a0music. It was then explained to me by the volunteers that there were entire [jobs]\u00a0dedicated to assembling and gathering [body] parts in order to not miss any.”<\/em><\/p>\n

According to (again)\u00a0themselves<\/a>, the only “inaccuracy” they specify is that fetal models have faces as early as seven weeks.\u00a0We don’t know what the allegedly misleading model really looked like, but\u00a0we do know<\/a>\u00a0that faces do take shape at this point.\u00a0According to Mayo Clinic<\/a>, “your baby’s brain and face are rapidly developing. Tiny nostrils become visible, and the eye lenses begin to form.”<\/p>\n

The rest NARAL doesn’t even try to challenge, because it’s all true. The science is settled<\/a>, and the plain meanings of\u00a0baby<\/a>,\u00a0mother<\/a>,\u00a0kill<\/a>, and\u00a0murder<\/a>\u00a0are what they are regardless of pro-aborts’ unease with the truth, as is the macabre practice that pro-aborts euphemistically whitewash<\/a>\u00a0as “evaluation of evacuated uterine contents.”<\/p>\n

Sin #13: CPCs are morally judgmental.<\/strong><\/p>\n

Another investigator in North Carolina who posed\u00a0as a pregnant Jewish woman was given a Bible\u00a0and told by volunteers at five different CPCs that\u00a0she would not go to heaven unless she became a\u00a0Christian.\u00a0<\/em><\/p>\n

Again, you’ll\u00a0just have to take NARAL’s word for it<\/a>\u00a0that this actually happened. No names, no locations, no corroboration. Yes, if it’s true it’s shameful, but something so over the top happening to the same person on five separate occasions? Not likely.<\/p>\n

At a CPC in Brooklyn, N.Y., a pamphlet\u00a0declared that \u201cthe condom\u2019s biggest flaw is that those\u00a0using it to prevent the conception of another human\u00a0being are offending God.\u201d<\/em><\/p>\n

At least\u00a0this time they give us<\/a>\u00a0something to verify. The quote comes from American Life League’s “The Flawed Condom<\/a>” pamphlet, which was found at EMC Pregnancy Center in Brooklyn. Yes, how dare a Catholic organization offer informational materials articulating Catholic beliefs! That’s the whole complaint\u2014that the pamphlet\u00a0was there<\/em>, not that it was used to browbeat anyone in any way. Yes, women in crisis pregnancies need to be met with understanding focused on their needs, not a lecture, but nor are they so fragile that they’d be traumatized just by being in the same room as traditional sexual views. Man, NARAL seems to have a really low view of women’s abilities…<\/p>\n

Sin #14: CPCs are “presenting\u00a0themselves to clients as authentic medical clinics even though they are not.”<\/strong><\/p>\n

Investigators reported that many CPCs are staffed by volunteers who wear white\u00a0lab coats, require forms to be filled out, and have replicated the look and feel of a\u00a0typical medical office […]\u00a0Most CPCs are not licensed and operate without regulation or oversight, even though they are providing so-called \u201ccounseling\u201d for women about pregnancy\u00a0options, because they are not legitimate reproductive-health clinics.\u00a0<\/em><\/p>\n

It’s doubtful the average visitor to a non-medical CPC would be so easily confused about its “look and feel,” but something more sinister than confusion is behind NARAL’s exaggeration of how many aren’t actual medical establishments.\u00a0Heartbeat International Vice President Jor-El Godsey notes that NARAL has tacitly\u00a0admitted they don’t really care<\/a>\u00a0what the truth is:<\/p>\n

In the words of the NARAL attorney “…It does not matter if [crisis pregnancy centers] hire doctors or house state-of-the-art equipment: they are still manipulating women with lies and misleading information.” This supports our long held understanding that no amount of “medicalization” will steer them from their attack. NARAL defiantly admit that medical services “conveys a seal of approval that we\u00a0never want to be complicit in allowing<\/strong>\u00a0[crisis pregnancy centers] to claim.” (Emphasis added.)<\/em><\/p>\n

Sin #15: Non-medical CPCs carry out medical procedures.<\/strong><\/p>\n

These clinics have clients read their own pregnancy tests (the same ones sold in drugstores) so they\u2019re not technically providing medical services. In California,\u00a0two investigators were alarmed when a CPC insisted that the potentially pregnant\u00a0patient self-administer her urine test. Because the test never leaves the hands of the\u00a0patient, the CPC only, appears to provide medical advice, stopping just short of\u00a0actually practicing medicine without a license.\u00a0<\/em><\/p>\n

Apparently NARAL has graduated from thinking pregnant women are stupid to hoping its readers are, because it just refuted its own complaint. “The same” pregnancy tests “sold in drugstores”\u2014the whole point of which<\/em>\u00a0is that you don’t need a license to use it!<\/p>\n

They provide free ultrasounds but do not\u00a0disclose that the ultrasounds they offer are non-diagnostic and limited in scope.\u00a0CPC workers who read ultrasounds can\u2019t always accurately determine if a woman\u00a0is pregnant, the gestational age, or if there are any real medical concerns with the\u00a0fetus.<\/em><\/p>\n

Americans United for Life\u00a0contends that CPCs which offer ultrasounds do<\/a>\u00a0have the necessary training and credentials to do so,\u00a0and Project Ultrasound, a nonprofit that raises money to buy ultrasound machines for CPCs,\u00a0only aids<\/a>\u00a0centers that have or are “in the process of attaining the legal certification to offer ultrasound services in their state.” NARAL does not substantiate their claim otherwise, and in fact,\u00a0Godsey\u00a0points out<\/a>\u00a0that when NARAL leveled this attack on Maryland centers, they claimed it was “unclear” if medical personnel are involved in their use of ultrasounds, meaning that “Either NARAL didn’t bother asking about the professional qualifications of those who provided medical services, or they didn’t reveal their own findings.”<\/p>\n

But if practicing medicine without a license really troubles NARAL, they should take a look in their own backyard. None of the Planned Parenthood clinics in Illinois, for instance,\u00a0are licensed by the state<\/a>. The PP in Birmingham, Alabama\u00a0got sued<\/a>\u00a0in 2012 when an ultrasound performed by an untrained and unlicensed worker led to a botched abortion that left Roberta Clark infertile. In 2013, pro-aborts got enacted a California law allowing non-physicians to perform abortions<\/em>. And pro-abortion publications like Jezebel\u00a0even celebrate<\/a>\u00a0people who perform abortions without training or licensing.<\/p>\n

* * *<\/p>\n

Ultimately, NARAL’s latest hit piece is just a recycling of\u00a0past NARAL hit jobs<\/a>\u2014Heartbeat International\u00a0observes<\/a>\u00a0that a whopping 92 of its 107 citations are old NARAL reports, which have a knack for getting debunked, with another eight citing the pro-abortion, Planned Parenthood-associated Guttmacher Institute (and even then, only for background information from\u00a0two<\/a>\u00a0fact-sheets<\/a>).\u00a0That means a measly 6.5 percent of the report rests on sources that might be credible.<\/p>\n

“But Calvin,” one of our pro-abortion trolls might say, “Live Action cites itself too when it attacks Planned Parenthood!” The difference that pro-aborts\u00a0can never seem to remember<\/a>\u00a0is simple: you don’t have to take our word for it, because it’s\u00a0all on video<\/a>.<\/p>\n

Granted, rare instances of dishonest CPC workers can surely be found if you look hard enough (because\u00a0there are bad actors in any sufficiently large group<\/a>), but it’s clearly not the norm NARAL suggests. It’s also worth noting that CPCs tend to be more loosely affiliated with parent organizations or completely independent. So a smattering of rogue CPCs simply would not indicate a coordinated propaganda campaign in the same way that Planned Parenthood getting caught in the same lies (which\u00a0come from the top<\/a>) over and over again\u00a0does.<\/p>\n

Exposing real threats to women’s safety is the last thing on NARAL’s mind. These long, superficially-intimidating reports are meant to provide nothing more than fodder to justify their ravenous followers’ hatred of crisis pregnancy centers, something they can rattle off a couple quotes and numbers from in the hopes of convincing people whose attention spans aren’t long enough to vet what they’re hearing. The sheer clumsiness of their attacks’ dishonesty does reveal one truth, though:<\/p>\n

Crisis pregnancy centers are working, and that\u00a0scares the hell\u00a0<\/em>out of the abortion lobby. They’re laying it on so thick because they’re desperate.<\/p>\n

Congratulations, pro-life America. Let’s keep giving them a reason to be.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
