		<title>ACT NOW &#8211; - Help Defeat Obamacare By Lobbying Against Abortion Coverage Today</title>
		<description><![CDATA[<img src="http://familypolicy.net/images/baby.jpg"  width="150" height="112" align="right" hspace="20" class="size-medium wp-image-760" /><strong>WASHINGTON, D.C. -</strong> Despite recent electoral losses in Virginia, New Jersey and Massachusetts, Planned Parenthood's dream of universal, taxpayer-funded abortions is still alive along with Obamacare itself.  That's because the president and his pro-abortion allies are still determined to crush the pro-life movement and roll back every pro-life advancement made since Roe vs. Wade.  <strong>However, the likelihood of defeating both dreaded concepts will be much greater if your congressman and senators hear a resounding message from many faithful pro-life citizens like you as soon as possible.</strong>

		<description><![CDATA[<a href="http://www.whitehouse.gov/sites/default/files/imagecache/related_video_thumbnail/audio-video/video_thumbnail/gayemployeesvid.jpg"><img src="http://www.whitehouse.gov/sites/default/files/imagecache/related_video_thumbnail/audio-video/video_thumbnail/gayemployeesvid.jpg" alt="U.S. Capitol" title="U.S. Capitol" width="264" height="148" align="right" hspace="20" class="size-medium wp-image-760" /></a><strong>[FPN]</strong> - President Obama has delivered on a campaign promise to homosexuals by signing legislation that will extend special 'hate crimes' protections to <em>some</em> people on the basis of their private sexual misconduct.   Family Policy Network (FPN) opposed adding 'sexual orientation' to 'hate crimes' categories, primarily because it is a move designed to elevate immoral lifestyles to civil rights status.
