CLOTS FROM BIRTH CONTROL NEARLY KILL TEXAS WOMAN</small></font></small><br>
</p>
<p><strong>Washington, DC (02 September 2009)</strong> – A woman in
Austin, Texas, is the latest victim of the deadly side effects of the
birth control pill. <br>
<br>
Patti Kelly, 28, was diagnosed in
August with multiple blood clots in both lungs. Her doctor told her
that if
she hadn’t come into the emergency room when she did, she “could have
died instantly.”<br>
<br>
Kelly’s doctor named birth control as the
driving factor in onslaught of the blood clots that could have caused
Kelly’s death.<br>
<br>
Marie Hahnenberg, project director for American
Life League’ s “The Pill Kills” outreach, is not
surprised.<br>
<br>
“We are constantly hearing about problems that stem
from the dangerous chemicals used in hormonal contraception,”
Hahnenberg
said. “Women have been told for years that the birth control pill is
the
answer to their medical complications, when it is only causing more
problems – even death.”<br>
<br>
In 2008, Johnson and Johnson spent at
least $68.7 million to settle hundreds of lawsuits filed by women who
suffered blood clots, heart attacks or strokes after using the
company’s
Ortho Evra birth-control patch. This summer, lawsuits have been filed
against Bayer’s dangerous and life-threatening Yasmin and Yaz birth
control pills.<br>
<br>
“Not only do the pill, patch, intrauterine device
and similar birth control products cause great harm to the woman
herself,
but these products also can cause early abortions,” Hahnenberg said.
“The physical and emotional perils associated with birth control are
one
of the most closely guarded secrets in the pharmaceutical industry.
It’s
time women knew the truth.”<br>

<hr size="2" width="100%"><b>EWTN's Arroyo Takes Cardinal
McCarrick to Task over Kennedy & Pope Letters</b><a name="2"></a><br>
<font face="Calisto MT">By John-Henry Westen</font>
<p><font face="Calisto MT">BOSTON, September 1, 2009 (<a
href="http://www.lifesitenews.com/">LifeSiteNews.com</a>) - EWTN News
Director and host of the popular EWTN program 'The World Over,'
Raymond Arroyo, has written <a
href="http://www.ewtn.com/news/blog.asp?blog_ID=2">a compelling
commentary </a>on retired Washington Cardinal Theodore McCarrick's
part in Saturday's burial of Senator Ted Kennedy. Arroyo
begins by calling <a
href="http://www.lifesitenews.com/ldn/2009/aug/090830a.html">McCarrick's
reading </a>of portions of Kennedy's letter and a Vatican response a
"marvelous bit of political theatre (as so much of Senator
Kennedy's funeral was)." </font></p>
<p><font face="Calisto MT">The renowned EWTN show
host, who is seen each week in more than 100 million homes around the
globe on the Catholic network, then reflects on McCarrick's
controversial history. </font></p>
<p><font face="Calisto MT">"First of all, it must be
recalled that Cardinal McCarrick has a rather unfortunate history
involving the delivery of letters, particularly those from a certain
Vatican official by the name of Ratzinger," says Arroyo. "In
2004, when the Bishops of the US were anguishing over whether to allow
communion to Catholic politicians who support abortion laws, Cardinal
McCarrick <a
href="http://www.lifesitenews.com/ldn/2005/apr/050419a.html">concealed
a
letter </a>from his brother bishops. The missive was from the head of
the Congregation for the Doctrine of the Faith, then Cardinal (now
Pope)
Joseph Ratzinger. Had the bishops received the letter intended to help
guide their debate, things might have gone very differently. The
contents of that letter are still relevant, particularly now when
dissenting Catholics have made grandiose pronouncements about what it
means to be a Catholic in public life." </font></p>
<p><font face="Calisto MT">Arroyo says that he
and other faithful Catholics are "not upset about Chappaquiddick or
the huge lapses in the Senator's long and storied life,"
knowing that forgiveness is possible. "The problem here," he
said, "is one of public witness and appearances - the corrupting
example." </font></p>
<p><font face="Calisto MT">Arroyo's central thesis is that the story of
the Kennedy funeral had less to do with Kennedy than with an attempt to
falsely portray what it means to be a Catholic and a Catholic
politician. "What most in the media and the public fail to
recognize is that this entire spectacle - the Catholic funeral
trappings
and the wall to wall coverage - was only partially about Ted
Kennedy," he wrote. "It was truly about cementing the
impression, indeed catechizing the faithful, that one can be a Catholic
politician, and so long as you claim to care about the poor, you may
licitly ignore the cause of life."</font></p>
<p><font face="Calisto MT">The responsibility of this
corrupting example falls not so much with Kennedy as with the prelates
who orchestrated the showcase funeral. Says Arroyo: "As a final
desperate attempt to stamp the imprimatur of the Pope upon the funereal
proceedings, Cardinal McCarrick read what he called the 'Pope's
response' to Senator Kennedy. Actually it was a note, very likely
from the Secretariat of State. This is the sort of thing any member of
laity receives when they send a prayer request or a Christmas card to
the Pope. Cardinal McCarrick made it seem as if it had the weight of a
new encyclical." </font></p>
