Illinois. It appears to me that Illinois is an abortionist stronghold politically, from Obama Illinois state senator, see New Documents Revealing Obama's cover up on Born Alive Infant Protection to now the Illinois state Governor. It seems we have more then just dirty politics but dirty anti-Life politics in Illinois and to think that Obama's chief of staff is from Illinois and his secretary of education is from Illinois. This should be at least somewhat concerning. Take note below that Planned Parenthood has a stronghold in Illinois. Take note that Jill Stanek of JillStanek.com is from Illinois. There is more to note. Just take a review below from a pro-life perspective.
From JillStanek.com
JillStanek.com is now in the top 5200 on Technorati. I have been reposting some of her reporting on a pro-life perspective on Illinois Gov. Rod Blagojevich.
Breaking news: IL Supreme Court rules for pharmacists/against Blagojevich-"My column yesterday spotlighted 2005 executive order by IL Gov. Rod Blagojevich forcing taxpayers to fund embryonic stem cell research.
Blagojevich was busy wreaking havoc on life in 2005. He also signed an "emergency rule" that year forcing IL pharmacists and pharmacies to dispense the morning-after pill even if against their religious beliefs. The MAP can stop a young embryo from embedding into the wall of the uterus, i.e., cause an abortion. Of course, you wouldn't know any of this by the tricky wording of Blagojevich's statement (click to enlarge)..."-Click on link to see image again I remind you that Jill Stanek is well documented.
"At any rate, the IL Supreme Court ruled today against Blagojevich. Quoting the Chicago Tribune:
The IL Supreme Court has dealt a blow to a rule requiring pharmacies to dispense emergency contraception.
Lower courts had dismissed claims from pharmacists who object to emergency contraception on religious grounds. Thursday's ruling reverses the lower courts, sending the case back to the circuit court.
Gov. Rod Blagojevich issued the rule prohibiting pharmacies from turning away women seeking emergency contraception, sometimes called the morning-after pill.
Last week LifeSiteNews.com dug up quotes by Blagojevich at the time:
He boasted in a 2006 interview, "Rather than try to get the legislature to pass something - because we attempted to and they didn't do it - on my own, through executive order action, I forced these guys to fill prescriptions for birth control for women who come in with prescriptions from their doctors."
In 2006, after members of the legislature sought to overturn his executive order, he made known his intent to veto any bills that would have protected the conscience rights of doctors and pharmacists.
In a 2006 State of the State address, Blagojevich said, "Now, I understand that several bills have been introduced that would overturn my executive order to protect women's reproductive freedoms ... So let me make something else very clear -- if any of those bills reach my desk, they are dead on arrival."
Interesting verbiage."
I am going to repost what I posted at Abortionist of 11 abortion clinics pleads guilty on 9 felony counts thanks to pro-life organization that documented and exposed her!!! here to keep in good context of the anti-Life Illinois Governor.

12/09/2008 Breaking news: Blagojevich arrested-"Again, given what I'm hearing as to the breadth of Blagojevich's alleged corruption, I would bet Planned Parenthood and the abortion industry have schemed with Blagojevich at some point(s). I just hope, given the magnitude of these alleged crimes, PP et al aren't too small fish. Fitzgerald is calling this a "political corruption crime spree."
Why would she say this? What might she know of this?
12/11/2008 Breaking news: Judge upholds Scheidler libel charges against Planned Parenthood-"I reported in September 2007 that Eric and Joe Scheidler and the Pro-Life Action League were filing a $7.5 million lawsuit against Planned Parenthood of Chicago and its CEO Steve Trombley.
Attempting to change public opinion after they lied their way into Aurora with a mega-abortion mill, PP/Trombley placed an open letter in the Chicago Daily Herald on September 7, 2007, accusing anti-abortion activists opposing PP's mill of having a history of violent behavior...."
Now here is where it gets interesting!!! Lets move on...
"Yesterday, Circuit Court Judge Judy Brawka upheld 2 counts of slander and libel related to that ad."
Brawka had previously dismissed other counts based on a hastily passed bill in 2007 in the IL General Assembly called the Citizens Participation Act that was supposedly intended to protect citizens from frivolous lawsuits for exercising free speech.
Yet only one week after Gov. Blagojevich signed that bill into law PP/Trombley wrote the letter and then used CPA for the opposite reason intended. Here we had a billion dollar business attempting to trample the little guys by demanding not only that the suit be dismissed but that it be reimbursed over $300k in legal fees.
The bill sat on Gov. Blagojevich's desk for two months before he signed it. The timing is curious. Bearing in mind this week's revelations of Blagojevich's vast pay-to-play schemes, I would not be at all surprised to see here another example.
Tom Brejcha of the Thomas More Society filed the lawsuit against PP/Trombley. Brejcha previously won two Supreme Court decisions in the NOW vs. Scheidler case, of which PP was also a part.
Brejcha said in a statement yesterday he will "litigate the two counts that were sustained all the way to final judgment against PP" as well as appeal the dismissed charges."
09/24/2008 SCOOP: $7.5 mil libel lawsuit against Planned Parenthood/Steve Trombley to be filed Tuesday-"On behalf of a number of Aurora citizens who took part in the 40 day prayer vigil, Tom Brejcha of the Thomas More Society will file a $7.5 million lawsuit against Planned Parenthood/Chicago Area and its CEO Steve Trombley Tuesday.
The lawsuit is in response to Trombley's September 4 letter to Aurora aldermen, which he also sent to the Aurora Beacon....
In it he included "those who oppose" the PP Aurora facility in his false condemnation of Joe Scheidler and the Pro-Life Action League as having a "well-documented history of advocating violence against both persons and property."
Trombley further implicated Aurora protesters when he stated in that letter:
Does it truly come as a surprise, then, that as we complied with all legal and public disclosure requirements, we simultaneously sought to keep this private while the construction was proceeding because the zealots who have been opposing our new facility have a well-documented history of violence and criminal activity?
According to Brejcha in a phone interview this morning:
If you look at the letter to aldermen, Trombley included those in Aurora who oppose the clinic in his general smear. Whatever these people are, they are one removed from Scheidler and the League. And the answer on whether Scheidler and the League are violent was answered by the Supreme Court 8-1 and 8-0. Trombley took even that false assertion a step further.
The lawsuit will be filed in Kane County. The amount corresponds with PP's stated value of its Aurora mill.
On September 7, Brejcha sent Trombley a letter demanding he retract or face "legal redress."
Trombley/PP responded by placing a full page ad in the Beacon on September 10 making the same charges, complete with a photo of an arsoned MI Planned Parenthood building."
So this is where it all began. A 2007 40 days for life peaceful prayer vigil!!! But lets go back to...
12/12/2008 Breaking news: Blagojevich arrested-"I've been saying since this story broke I'm confident there's a pay to play connection between Rod Blagojevich and Planned Parenthood of Chicago and/or its CEO Steve Trombley. Bearing in mind Blagojevich apparently didn't do anything without getting his skids greased, recall this story..."-A story that Planned Parenthood was planning an unprecedented 1$ million television advertising blits for Bagojevich.
"Then I read this 2 days ago on Capitol Fax:
Blagojevich allegedly tried to use the prospect of an Illinois Finance Authority purchase of Wrigley Field to entice owner Sam Zell into firing John McCormick from the edit board.
(Or in the immortal words of Patti Blagojevich, "Hold up that f***ing Cubs sh**. F*** them.")...
By this we know Blagojevich held the strings of his IL Finance Authority puppet.
Then recall PP only last May got a $10 million nonprofit bond rating from the IL Finance Authority to build the Aurora mega-mill - being built as a for-profit venture by PP's false front Gemini Office Development corporation...My concern has been US Attorney Patrick Fitzgerald would have many bigger fish to fry than PP. Will he pursue any possible pay to play connection between Blagojevich and PP?
I spoke with Tom Brejcha of the Thomas More Society yesterday, and he's on it. Since TMS is not only suing PP/Trombley for libel but also for zoning violations, he can and will do his own fishing by filing for discovery and requesting depositions with the IL Finance Authority. Stay tuned."
