This is the show from Monday, February 13th 2012.

BEST QUOTE OF THE SHOW:

When the Romney pro-family apologists defend him and say he had no choice but to institute government funded abortion and homosexual marriage, they’re lying. The one’s who are educated, they’re just lying. They’re not confused. They are lying.

budding talk show host Rush Limbaugh??

While that's an odd way to describe the biggest name in talk radio, yes, I did hear him mention it.

I've heard of this link before and would like to have more information, although I don't discount it out of hand because of the effect of hormones on breast cancer and the fact that the woman having an abortion is, in effect, artificially shifting her body into reverse at 70 mph. That's got to have some repercussion. With a miscarriage, the body is in charge. Not so with an abortion.

I have heard that the woman who has the highest risk for breast cancer is one who has never had a child.

From http://www.lifesitenews.com/news/archive/ldn/2010/jan/10010706

WASHINGTON, DC, January 7, 2010 (LifeSiteNews.com) - U.S. National Cancer Institute researcher Dr. Louise Brinton, who was the chief organizer of the National Cancer Institute (NCI) workshop in 2003 that persuaded women that it was "well established" that "abortion is not associated with increased breast cancer risk," has reversed her position and now admits that abortion and oral contraceptives raise breast cancer risks.

An April 2009 study by Jessica Dolle et al. of the Fred Hutchinson Cancer Research Center examining the relationship between oral contraceptives (OCs) and triple-negative breast cancer (TNBC), an aggressive form of breast cancer associated with high mortality, in women under age 45, contained an admission from Dr. Brinton and her colleagues that abortion raises breast cancer risk by 40%.

The study found that "a statistically significant 40% increased risk for women who have abortions" exists, and that a " 270% increased risk of triple negative breast cancer (an aggressive form of breast cancer associated with high mortality) among those who used oral contraceptives while under age 18 and a 320% increased risk of triple negative breast cancer among recent users (within 1-5 years) of oral contraceptives," also exists.

This means that women who start using OCs before age 18 multiply their risk of TNBC by 3.7 times and recent users of OCs within the last one to five years multiply their risk by 4.2 times.

"Although the study was published nine months ago," stated Karen Malec, president of the Coalition on Abortion/Breast Cancer, in a press release, "the NCI, the American Cancer Society, Susan G. Komen for the Cure and other cancer fundraising businesses have made no efforts to reduce breast cancer rates by issuing nationwide warnings to women."

"Obviously, more women will die of breast cancer if the NCI fails in its duty to warn about the risks of OCs and abortion and if government funds are used to pay for both as a part of any healthcare bill," said Mrs. Malec.

Last year, studies from Turkey and China also reported statistically significant risk increases for women who had abortions.

The Turkish study reported a 66% increased risk of breast cancer for women with abortions while the Chinese study found a statistically significant 17% increased breast cancer risk among Chinese women who had induced abortions.

Mrs. Malec said, "The Chinese and the Turkish studies are relevant considering the debate over government-funded abortion through healthcare reform" in the US. "Government-funded abortion means more dead American women from breast cancer."

It's worth pointing out that the WHO, US Cancer Institute, and other organizations deny any link between abortions and breast cancer.

Wouldn't surprise me if there were, but this definitely remains in the "to be determined" category.

The studies which have shown a link between induced abortion and breast cancer, all suffer from one major flaw: they are not prospective studies, and therefore suffer from reporting bias.

ALL of the large prospective studies ever done show zero increased risk for breast cancer due to abortion, either induced or spontaneous.

http://www.cancer.org/Cancer/BreastCancer/MoreInformation/is-abortion-linked-to-breast-cancer

The largest, and probably the most reliable, study on this topic was done during the 1990s in Denmark, a country with very detailed medical records on all its citizens. In this study, all Danish women born between 1935 and 1978 (a total of 1.5 million women) were linked with the National Registry of Induced Abortions and with the Danish Cancer Registry. All of the information about their abortions and their breast cancer came from registries – it was very complete and was not influenced by recall bias.

After adjusting for known breast cancer risk factors, the researchers found that induced abortion(s) had no overall effect on the risk of breast cancer. The size of this study and the manner in which it was done provide good evidence that induced abortion does not affect a woman’s risk of developing breast cancer.

Another large, prospective study was reported on by Harvard researchers in 2007. This study included more than 100,000 women who were between the ages of 29 and 46 at the start of the study in 1993. These women were followed until 2003.

Again, because they were asked about childbirths and abortions at the start of the study, recall bias was unlikely to be a problem. After adjusting for known breast cancer risk factors, the researchers found no link between either spontaneous or induced abortions and breast cancer.

The California Teachers Study also reported on more than 100,000 women in 2008. Researchers asked the women in 1995 about past induced and spontaneous abortions. While the women were being followed in the study, more than 3,300 developed invasive breast cancer. There was no difference in breast cancer risk between the group who had either spontaneous or induced abortions and those who had not had an abortion.

Would those "other organizations" happen to be NARAL and Planned Parenthood Granite?

We all saw PC in action when the Susan G. Komen Foundation tried to distance itself from the baby butchers at Planned Parenthood.

Lets get our science from a combination of Pastor Bob and Fathead Rush. Rather have a sharp stick in my eye.
