Fox News is just about the only MSM source that is giving any attention at all to the shocking revelations contained in new undercover videos showing criminal behavior by Planned Parenthood staff. Therefore, the conservative blogosphere must team up with pro-life activists all around the country (pro-life activists like you!) to get the word out -- and here's one report that certainly should be passed around.

Michele Bachmann, R-Minn., a co-sponsor on that bill, linked to the first Planned Parenthood video on her Facebook page, vowing to introduce her own bill "that would prohibit Planned Parenthood from receiving any future federal money directly or indirectly."...
