		<title>David Ripley: Planned Parenthood Bias at KTVB</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Idaho Chooses Life
Boise&#8217;s Channel 7 ran a story on Planned Parenthood&#8217;s outrage over being dropped by the Komen Foundation. The impression they convey is that all of the Treasure Valley is up in arms because the local abortion clinic will no longer receive money raised under the auspices of &#8220;fighting breast cancer&#8221;. 
Perhaps local donors [...]]]></description>

		<title>Andi Elliott: Ask the Legislature to Determine Eligibility of Candidates</title>
		<description><![CDATA[By Andi Elliott
 Folks, we are asking people to send this to their representatives so that Idaho can be certain that candidates that appear on Idaho ballots are actually eligible to be there. It is up to the Chairmen of the political parties to &#8220;vet&#8221; the candidates. This is not always done. Georgia and Texas [...]]]></description>

		<title>David Ripley:  Komen Breaks with Planned Parenthood</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Idaho Chooses Life
The pro-Life community is buzzing with the tremendous news that Planned Parenthood has lost the legitimizing cover of the breast cancer lobby. The Komen Foundation&#8217;s decision to end its partnership with the Abortion Industry is a huge blessing &#8211; on many levels.
There is the money which Komen has transferred from life-loving citizens to [...]]]></description>

		<title>Richard Larsen: The State of the Union and &#8220;American Values&#8221;</title>
		<description><![CDATA[By Richard Larsen
The president, in his State of the Union address declared, “The problems we&#8217;re overcoming are not the heritage of one person, party, or even one generation. It&#8217;s just the tendency of government to grow. And there&#8217;s always that well-intentioned chorus of voices saying, ‘With a little more power and a little more money, [...]]]></description>

		<title>David Ripley: ICL Opposes Insurance Exchange</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Idaho Chooses Life
The Board of Idaho Chooses Life has voted to oppose the creation of a state insurance exchange because of the myriad dangers it poses to Idahoans. Implementing ObamaCare, even as we challenge it before the U.S. Supreme Court, just doesn&#8217;t make sense. The pending lawsuit provides with a great exit ramp. 
But the [...]]]></description>

		<title>David Ripley: Obama Pays Homage to Roe v. Wade</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Idaho Chooses Life
President Obama issued a public statement this past Sunday honoring the Supreme Court for its heinous act 39 years ago this week:
&#8220;We must remember that [Roe v. Wade] not only protects a woman&#8217;s health and reproductive freedom, but also affirms a broader principle: that government should not intrude on private family matters.&#8221;
That is [...]]]></description>

		<title>Richard Larsen: Unemployment Headlines Belie the Seriousness of Job Situation</title>
		<description><![CDATA[By Richard Larsen
It’s too bad that we can’t rely on the headline numbers that our own government gives us. The headline numbers the Bureau of Labor Statistics (BLS) releases each month obfuscate the real unemployment malaise across the country. Yet ironically, it’s in the BLS releases that we find a more complete unemployment picture, we [...]]]></description>

		<title>David Ripley:  Idaho Ranks 19th</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Idaho Chooses Life
Americans United for Life has released its pro-Life rankings of the states for 2012. They rank Idaho as the 19th &#8220;safest&#8221; place for preborn children in the country &#8211; at least in terms of the legal protections afforded our preborn brothers and sisters. That is an improvement of four spots from the year [...]]]></description>

		<title>Representative Tom Loertscher: House Highlights, January 22</title>

Sometimes in life timing is everything and it seems like the stars line up. Other times not so much. I have been working for quite some time on a piece of legislation to change the date of the primary election from May to August. The Primary election was held in August [...]]]></description>
