Wichita hotel asks abortion clinic to stop using it
http://www.ljworld.com/section/stateregional/story/1953...

WICHITA — A Wichita abortion clinic has been told to stop using La Quinta Corp. hotel rooms to perform medical services and to stop using the hotel's name in information about the clinic.

La Quinta Corp., based in Irving, Texas, notified the Women's Health Care Services of its requests after an investigation prompted by complaints from the anti-abortion group Operation Rescue.

Operation Rescue was told by a woman who had an abortion last year that the clinic used La Quinta for women who were having abortions, said Cheryl Sullenger of Operation Rescue.

4. By "Medical Services" at the Hotel....
...they're referring to follow-up visits that nurses from the abortion clinic wouold make to make sore the women were all right.

I guess that commpassion and care for the sick are two things that are foreigh to the so-called Christians at Operation Rescue. I believe that they are a true terrorist organization.

5. This one goes both ways
Obviously the hotel is fully within their rights to ask that it not be used in info about the clinic. However, like another poster said, where are they supposed to go?

I find this interesting:
"Operation Rescue was told by a woman who had an abortion last year that the clinic used La Quinta for women who were having abortions, said Cheryl Sullenger of Operation Rescue."

So, are they sending "operatives" to get abortions now and report back? Wouldn't that be a hoot?

6. I'm pro choice but I agree with the hotel on this one.
There could be liability issues involved if follow up visits are taking place in the hotel.
