First of all let's say something that you right wing guys so conveniently forget to mention: Not a single dime of federal money goes towards abortion. Not a dime. Not a penny. Instead, they use money from other sources — private donors and foundations as well as fees — to fund its abortion services. So this rant and rave over planned parenthood using tax payer money to fund abortion is 100% fucking bullshit. Its a convenient lie the right uses to try and legitimize getting rid of it altogether.
The majority of funds spent by planned parenthood go towards pre-natal care, birth control, cancer-screening, STD Treatments with a whopping 3% going to abortion services.
These recent heavily edited videos which were more than likely obtained illegaly by a group of people that have a long history of slanderous and outright blatant lies about PP. As I have said before, When I was a pregnant teenager I was a patient at the Planned Parenthood in Grenada Hills. They never once mentioned abortion to me. They gave me screenings, all the vitamins I needed as well as nutritional information and all of my sonograms before my son was born. After he was born they offered classes on being a new mother and infant nutrition and many other things. They also made sure I understood that right after childbirth is the easiest time to get pregnant again which I would have never known.
So this attack on planned parenthood as if all they do is abortions is bullshit propaganda being spewed by people with an agenda. They tell lies and twist the truth even though PP has to file taxes at the end of the year and provide detailed use of funding which clearly shows what every penny is used for.
Here's a full story on the issue
If the right wants to win another presidential election they'll shut the fuck up about women's rights because that has proven to be a losing argument and that gap grows every day.
