Okay, so if I have this right:

- regular birth control pills prevent the sperm and egg combining to form a zygote, which is (grudgingly) supposed to be okay by pro-life folk.
- Plan B supposed to (or at least the pro-life folk claim it) stop the zygote from implanting in the uterus, which is NOT okay with the pro-life folk?

If so, then one question I have: I could be wrong here, but doesn't failed implantation happen quite often, naturally?

But that's all science and since when do pro-lifers give a gently caress about that? Basically anything that can or has been used as emergency contraception is considered an abortifacient, including the copper IUD. The logic is that failure to implant or miscarriage is in god's hands, but any steps taken to cause or just increase the likelihood of outcomes is deliberate baby killing that must be stopped.

Lt. Gov. Dan Patrick on Friday announced the appointment of conservative firebrand Allen West, a former Florida congressman and prominent Fox News contributor, to the state's Sunset Advisory Commission.

"There is no mission more important than working towards a more efficient and effective state government," West said in a statement. "As a graduate of the University of Tennessee and a former member of Congress, it is a blessing to follow in the footsteps of Davy Crockett who came to Texas to fight for liberty and freedom."

The Sunset Commission, whose members are appointed by the lieutenant governor and speaker of the House, is tasked with periodically reviewing the operation and efficiency of different state agencies.

Five Superior City Councilors are calling on Mayor Bruce Hagen to retract a Facebook comment referring to President Barack Obama as a Muslim who has "destroyed the fabric of democracy."

Hagen's full comment, which was posted in response to a photo of First Lady Michelle Obama, reads "Unbelievable! She and her Muslim partner have destroyed the fabric of democracy that was so very hard fought for!"

Hagen told Eyewitness News he made the comment in response to something that a friend said, but declined to elaborate. He said he stands by the statement and said it was an expression of free speech.
