They should defund it. With ObamaCare, Planned Parenthood is now repetitious funding. Everybody now has to be insured. Love my 12,000 grand deductible. I was forced into the exchange, being self-employed, & this is the absolute worst insurance that I have ever seen. I may have insurance, but who can afford to use it with those deductibles & premiums? Not even a copay! So, screw the Dems, defund PP. If I am forced into this sham of an exchange, I want everyone to be on it. The whole purpose was to have the uninsured go to a family doctor. Make it happen. Defund PP. They are now irrelevant. Hahahahaha! Be careful what you wish for, you may get it!
Facts? Facts? What, are you kidding me. Facts aren’t the issue! I want more emotion! More distortion! Yikes, just think of a world where people used facts to guide decision making? Is that the sort of world you want to live in? Talk about narrow minded. Facts, right.
You don’t see any conflict of interest, though? PP provides donations to democrats. PP also gets taxpayer subsidies. That means that taxpayers are subsidizing democrat donations. See the logic there? I’m not picking on just PP, I’m saying any arrangement like that needs to be eliminated. That’s why I was in support of Act 10 here in WI. Government-funded (either directly or secondarily) entities should not be permitted to donate anything to any political body.
Lisa’s cartoon shows Congressmen saying “think of all the services they provide”….BIG LIE.-www.cnsnews.com article “Desperate Dems Recycle PP’s Mammogram Lie”….."an investigation of 30 Planned Parenthood clinics in 27 different states, conducted by pro-life group Live Action, confirmed that the abortion provider does not perform breast-cancer screenings. “We don’t provide those services whatsoever” a staffer at PP of Arizona’s ….clinic in Overland, Kan., admitted. “We actually don’t have a, um, mammogram machine at our clinicS.”-Congress funds community clinics in the USA, with no connection to PP, who do no abortions, but do provide full services to women, including mammograms. IMO Congress should cut off every penny now given to PP and direct that money to the no-abortion clinics.
@dennis1112Golly gee, are you implying that corporations and organizations do not donate large sums of money to GOP candidates? Did you ever wonder who gets campaign funding from the NRA, for example?
Our daughter, who opposes abortion, but as an RN recognizes the rare need for it, recently delivered our beautiful granddaughter after 20 years of trying and desiring a child. That she lives in New Zealand, and their medical system provides much of the prenatal care Planned Parenthood provides here for folks who’ve long been unable to afford “our system”, because of right wing opposition to providing such care as a “cost saving to the taxpayer”, is an interesting aspect of how “single payer” is a better system.
Our daughter has said NZ could do more for preventative medicine, like screening etc., it’s still a better system than conservatives will support here.
@braindead….to reply to the Question=Human conception Is a gift from God, intended for a married husband and wife whose duty it is to love and care for and teach their children to worship God. God blesses this kind of families. Families that rebel and flaunt sins are cursed to have problems passed through genes and generations, results of open and continuous sinful activities. -Once the conception occurs, it is a human child that develops and deserves birth. If a baby cannot be raised by its natural mother, adoption is the best, for a married husband and wife who truly want and will care for the child.-All else is sin….fornication and adultery…God will not bless sin. God loves us, God created mankind and provided earth and resources and gave us Scriptures to educate us for life here and for eternity. The problems in our culture are the result of our sins. Planned Parenthood is a result of 5 evil USSC Judges 1973 legalizing murder of the pre-born. Now we see the horrors and atrocities done behind closed doors.It is past time to shut PP down and prosecute its officials.-Period. Amen.
First off… .Yes, particualary. The Military industrial complex make its money by selling weapons and services to the government. Congress actually adds weapons to the military budget the Pentagon didn’t even ask for.Secondly, you’re basically slut shaming and saying it’s the woman’s fault and her problem alone. How pseudo-Christian of you.

What I don’t understand is why the so-called ‘conservatives’ have to make stuff up.
Are their facts and information really so weak?
I guess this cartoon is a perfect example.

They do make political donations and virtually all of it goes to Democrats. $1,600,000 in 2014.

If you wondered how morally corrupt the Party of FDR and JFK has become, watch the videos and the sick defense offered by PP defenders.
