US cuts funding for condoms in African clinics (pro Life my ass!)
http://www.mg.co.za/article/2008-10-04-us-cuts-funding-for-condoms-in-african-clinics

The US government is cutting its funding for the supply of contraceptives to family planning clinics run by Marie Stopes International in Africa, alleging that it condones forced abortions in China.

MSI has categorically denied that it supports forced abortions or coercive sterilisation in China or anywhere else in the world, and says that the actions of the Bush government will result in more abortions in Africa, as women will be unable to get contraceptives and will end up with unwanted pregnancies.
