"Laid Off" SD Planned Parenthood director moves to CA

The Argus Leader had Kate Looby's face on the front page this morning for an article titled; Fewer Jobs for idled workers in city once flush with openings. (If you are new to the abortion issue in South Dakota, Looby was the Planned Parenthood director here who was "laid off" right after the election last year.)

Kate Looby, 43, South Dakota's voice in a national debate on abortion rights, cleaned out her desk when Planned Parenthood eliminated her position as the agency's state director. She moved to California two weeks ago and is job hunting in San Jose.

Let's wish her well. Here's the thing though, I heard eight weeks ago she was moving to California to "work for a non-profit". Either that didn't work out, or it wasn't true in the first place, or this lady is still lying to South Dakotan's about what she does. Why not just say I had to leave the state to stay in the line of work I love… killing the children.

And I thought it a bit much to label her as "South Dakota's voice" - that was hardly the case. Even so, surely we haven't heard the last of her on this issue

Did she leave her kids behind and go with new hubby? This is a shock.

What is wrong with you? Why do you feel the need to post a blog about Looby? She no longer works for PP.

Your stalking never ceases to amaze me.

"Grace" - it's an act of grace that I'm letting you back on for yet another comment. Still awaiting your answers to my earlier questions.

Talk about stalking… should I post on your various deceptive identities on this blog over this past year and the jekyl/hyde approaches you are known for here - nice to threatening - from "undecided voter" to witch-like seduction. You get paid for posting on these blogs don't you?? - for spewing pro-death ideology consistently in our state (nearly 700 comments from you on Argus Leader abortion related articles.) You are a piece of work. What is wrong with YOU and who is behind YOU?

I'm certain it's maddening to you to try and figure all this out and it's understandable that one who thinks wrong-is-right and right-is-wrong would wonder what's wrong with me. I advise you to quit stalking this blog every day if it bothers you so much.

Or contribute intelligently to the discussion -answer the questions that come directly to you in response to your comments. If Looby doesn't work at PP, where does she work? I know you know and I'm also pretty sure her comment in the paper about looking for a job is just more lies.

Looby is still in the front page of the Sunday paper here as "SD's voice" supporting the killing of children and therefore she's still on the radar of this blog.

Is it really wrong for someone like me to shine light on the deeds of those who work best in the darkness, hidden in the shadows from public scrutiny? As is, too much of the abortion cartel gets a free pass from honest public disclosure in terms of it's practices.

"Stalking" this blog?

The rhetoric here is all about bashing and hating and whining and slander. It is the most unChristian blog in the state - even athiests would agree.

And, since when is it your task to pass out the grace? Methinks you've strayed irredeemably from your higher power (and I don't mean Frank Pavone).

Ms. Looby's private life is hardly the stuff for this blog. "Stalking" her even as she lives out of state is, well, creepy. Someone should be staying away from the kids all right.

Pastor, heal thyself.

Is Laura Grace?

Steve @ 3:29 pm

Laura - I agree stalking is a ridiculous word but I use it because when I post news or details I get accused of stalking. Whatever. Mrs. Looby's "private" life was on the front page of the paper yesterday and she's chosen to continue in a very "public" and controversial profession. I'm sure Sandy Jerstad would rather her personal driving habits not be fodder for the blogs but those of us who have a higher public profile forfeit the privacy.

In any case, lighten up on South Dakota's most loving blog.

Pavone?? Am I connect to him somehow? You lost me there. It is all of our "tasks" to extend grace to each other. Maybe you think the "christian" thing to do would be for me to be silent when you and others vote to bludgeon the skulls of living human beings. Have you ever read this verse??

Rescue those being led away to death; hold back those staggering toward slaughter. If you say, "But we knew nothing about this," does not he who weighs the heart perceive it? Does not he who guards your life know it? Will he not repay each person according to what he has done? Proverbs 24:10-12

When I read that I see that I need to be doing something about those being led to slaughter. And so I am. This blog is only the tip of the iceberg. We are helping women, children with money, housing and much more. Quite "Christian" by any standard. If you only see this blog you have no idea what I'm up to as far as pure religion - helping women without support and children who have no parents who want them or who can care for them.

Looby on the other hand covers up sex crimes against minors and is ok that sex criminals go unreported and remain free to go hurt other women, girls and children. Is it really unChristian of me to rise up and hold her feet to the fire? I'd think God has a bigger issue with the "Christian" who does nothing.

"Even atheists agree" — ??? Are you serious that you think an atheist would have any true sense of the knowledge of God and his ways or what is Christian and what is not? LOL.

Travis @ 4:48 pm

Dietrich Bonhoeffer said a few things that would apply directly to what Steve is doing.

"when assaulted by evil, we must oppose it directly. We have no other option. The failure to act is simply to condone evil."

He also says that
"it is worse for a liar to tell the truth than for a lover of truth to lie" (Ethics, p.67). To focus exclusively on the lie and not on the liar is a failure to confront evil.

Bonhoeffer knew what it was like to stand and confront Evil face to face. He paid the price with his life!

Steve dont let anyone intimidate you and you don't have to defend yourself. Their types vilified the ni@@er lovin ministers here in the south who had the courage to say blacks are human too. You are on the right side of history.

Looby's whereabouts are newsworthy and other prolife news outlets are obviously following this as well:

Every move these baby killers make needs to be carefully monitored.
