Successful Rally for Life in Dublin
Last Saturday, 7000 people marched in Dublin on the annual Rally for Life. congratulations to all who took part in another successful event. Speakers at the Rally called on an Taoiseach, Enda Kenny, to keep the pro-life promise he made during the Election, when he said that Fine Gael in government would be 'opposed to the legalisation of abortion.'
Pat Buckley of the European Life Network has the low-down on the media bias in reporting the event, something that we are now wearily familiar with.

Thanks for posting this video from my native city. Not all the reporting was biased. Here is something I included in my own blog on the march: "Monday's edition of The Irish Times carried a report by Cían Nihill under the heading Pro-choice and anti-abortionists rally in Dublin. Today's edition (6 July) has letters by two participants thanking the paper for its coverage of the event. The only quibble I would have is with the headline which describes those who are pro-abortion as 'pro-choice', a misleading term which even ardent pro-lifers have come to use. One might question 'anti-abortionist' but it's not inaccurate, though less comprehensive than 'pro-lifers'."
Both Ireland and the USA have enough grounds for a Civil war. The former's 1922 dispute and the former's 1862 version, were started for less.
Possibly true, Sadie, but God forbid there should be a re-run of either!
