Ann Rose and Susan Hill have something to say. Every morning for the past several years, they've chatted on the phone and ranted about the events of the day. Now, instead of ranting to each other, they will air their opinions on the internet with Hot Flash Report which will focus on abortion, reproductive rights, birth control and right-wing sexual hypocrisy. Along with a hand-picked group of 'Flasher' columnists, they will dissect the latest spin on the news and give you a piece of their mind. Ann and Susan are both long time liberal Democrats
and abortion rights activists with national credentials.

Abortion Issue more than just numbers

In light of many studies and a recent AP article, if people were truly interested in significantly reducing the number of abortions being performed, they would first look at the demographics of those receiving abortion services and specifically, the conditions in which unintended pregnancies and resulting abortions are more likely to occur.

The Anti-Choice Witch Hunt

Tags: pro-choice, Dr. Tiller, ProKanDo, reproductive rights
Currently in Kansas, a grand jury is investigating Dr. George Tiller, one of only a handful of late-term abortion providers in the U.S. The petitioners are convinced that the Dr. has violated state regulations pertaining to late termination of pregnancy.
This is the second time in as many years the doctor has been thusly investigated as he is a top target of such anti-choice organizations like Kansans for Life (like the rest of Kansans are for death?), and Operation Rescue (they aren't interested in rescuing `born' children from anything).

Taking away women's rights one egg at a time!

Colorado Initiative #36. Remember that number. Remember that number as a catalyst for not only trying to take away women's rights, but for restrictions on birth control, and the can of worms it will open in 2008. The initiative calls for changing the definition of `person' in the Colorado Constitution to include any human being from the moment of fertilization; giving fertilized eggs specific rights. There are certainly a number of problems with the initiative itself, including its wording, intentions and repercussions. For the Colorado Supreme Court to allow this initiative to continue is a disaster waiting to happen.

Tags: prokando, abortion, women's rights, bills, laws
Even before most legislative sessions have started, the anti-choice brigade continues to push for absurd legislation that takes away women's rights. They are drafting bills and drawing up plans to push during the next legislative session. Will nothing stop these people from throwing women's rights out the window? And just what exactly are they up to?

Snoop Dog Kline is at it Again!

What's the saying, "Old habits die hard?" Well that's exactly what Phill Kline's motto should be as District Attorney of Johnson County, Kansas. He can't seem to stop harassing women and doctors, and snooping around for information regarding women's medical records. He is clearly and unequivocally sticking his nose in a place where it does not belong. Some people across the state even question his authority as DA to file such a complaint in his home county.
