"Terafying" Planned Parenthood

Planned Parenthood and its White House shill continue to misinform the American people. Meanwhile, in Libya... My print column is up.

From the comments, "terafied" takes great offense:
You know what? Stop. Just stop. Uninformed rants like this are destructive and idiotic. Planned Parenthood is a PRIMARY CARE PROVIDER offering baseline medical care for women who can't afford to get it elsewhere. They never claimed to be anything other than that. They do, however, administer reproductive health exams, including breast checks. They are trained to spot abnormalities, and if they do, they will send patients to imaging centers JUST LIKE EVERY OTHER PHYSICIAN DOES. And they also will pre-qualify low-income patients for the cost of mammography, by connecting them with programs such as Medicaid, or using their own Title X funding, to pay that patient's bill - UNLIKE EVERY OTHER PHYSICIAN.
Your campaign of terror against a longstanding, respected healthcare organization will not be tolerated any longer. We who admire the work Planned Parenthood has done over many decades are going to call you on your lies and misinformation. In the future, before regurgitating the rightwing memes, please do some research. The attempt to malign this lifeline for low-income women is appalling.
My "campaign of terror," heh! But "lies" and "misinformation"? It is Planned Parenthood and the President who have misinformed people, according to the liberal-leaning FactCheck.org.

These same liberal "fact checkers" had Planned Parenthood's back when it accepted its ridiculous claim of only 3 percent of it's operation being devoted to abortion services. This is complete baloney. Abortion is by far PP's largest income producer, bringing in more than $165 million a year, and still the organization demands hundreds of millions more in taxpayer funds. And it gets it.

This despite Planned Parenthood personnel being repeatedly caught on tape breaking state laws and helping minors to hide abortions from their parents, protecting statutory rapists, and defending sex selection abortions.

Undercover pro-life activists have caught PP doing all these things on videotape. How dare they "terrorize" Planned Parenthood in this way.

Fans of this abortion giant, like "terafied" won't "tolerate" it. But they are happily tolerating the president's stonewalling on what happened in Libya on 9/11.


At least they have their priorities straight.
