Mama is now famous. Her photo is right there, big and shiny, in the National Catholic Register. Bless her bones, she keeps on keeping on. I spent most of yesterday afternoon with her. We went out for hotdogs and drinks at our favorite drive-in. Then, we went to the bank drive-through and then we went to the library. Throughout the entire excursion, she prattled along, talking to me about everything we passed on the way. As usual, she told me,... Read more

The first executive order banning these monies from going to groups that perform or promote abortions as a method of family planning in other... Read more

Pro Life women marched alongside others in the Women’s March Saturday. I personally know pro life women who drove in from around the state to participate in the March for Women here in Oklahoma. I was surprised by how many of them told me they were going, and, frankly, by who they were. These weren’t women who normally get involved in politics. They also aren’t the sort to go around carrying signs for anything, including pro life. They live their... Read more
