Thai officials are promising enforcement of anti-abortion laws and a crackdown on illegal abortion clinics in the wake of last week's discovery of more than 2,000 aborted fetuses at a Buddhist temple, where undertakers allegedly planned to cremate them. The existing laws are appropriate and flexible enough, and there is no need to amend them or add new laws, but it is important that children and youths are educated about this subject through campaigning," Prime Minister Abhisit Vejjajiva said Sunday.

IN THEORY, access to the drug called Plan B should be a no- brainer. It's safe, it's effective, it's easily available in dozens of countries. But Plan B is a drug used to prevent pregnancy, and nothing about preventing pregnancy in America is simple, except for the fact that so many women do it as a matter of course. Plan B is an emergency contraceptive that works by inhibiting ovulation, fertilization or implantation. It won't work if you're already pregnant, but it will stop you from becoming pregnant if your everyday contraceptive failed or you've had unprotected sex. But because it must be taken within a few days - it's sometimes called the morning-after pill - it's important to have ready access. Canada, Britain, France and a host of other countries allow women to get emergency con...

BANGKOK - On the grounds of a Buddhist temple, dozens of white plastic bags lay in rows. Each sack was knotted at the top and contained the remains of a fetus. Thai authorities found about 2,000 remains in the temple's mortuary, where they had been hidden for a year - apparently to conceal illegal abortions.

Former Congresswoman Heather Wilson, who lost a bitter Republican Senate primary three years ago, made a show of force Monday when she announced she is running again for U.S. Senate, bringing several prominent state Republicans to the stage with her, as well as dozens of endorsements from various GOP leaders. And in an obvious attempt to head off a repeat of the 2008 primary, when her opponent, U.S. Rep. Steve Pearce, and his supporters tarred her as a "liberal," Wilson on Monday stressed her conservative credentials.

The state House has just OK'd legislation that would impose strict inspection and operating regulations on abortion clinics in Pennsylvania. The measure, approved 148-43, is largely in response to an abortion-clinic scandal in Philadelphia, where a doctor allegedly performed illegal late-term abortions in squalid conditions. The doctor is being held in jail without bail, charged with killing one patient and a number of viable infants, whose spinal cords were severed with scissors during the procedure.
In response to the Dr. Gosnell tragedy in Philadelphia, the Legislature is poised to pass Senate Bill 732 in an attempt to "protect" women. SB 732 would require that free-standing abortion clinics be regulated as ambulatory surgical facilities, mandating new staffing and architectural requirements. On the surface, these changes seem innocuous and even helpful. However, the truth is that abortion clinics are already regulated and have a track record of safety. These facilities were praised in the Gosnell grand jury report for their excellent medical care and safety protocols and stated to be "more stringent and more protective of women's safety than are Pennsylvania's abortion regulations." These new changes do nothing to make abortion care safer for women. They will, however, make abort...
