You know, I get really annoyed when people who have no idea what they are talking about excoriate other people for trying to use a valid analogy to make a point. Over at Stark Reports, Mike Stark posted an interview yesterday with Congressman Trent Franks (R-AZ) on health care and in the course of the [...]
In a vote of 247-183, Mike Pence’s (R-Indiana) amendment to stop federal funds from going to Planned Parenthood failed. There just weren’t enough Democrats joining Republicans to pass the amendment. LifeNews.com has more.
The Planned Parenthood Federation of America is a billion dollar non-profit entity. Yes, you read that correctly–one billion. It receives over a third of it’s money from federal and state government grants. Rep. Mike Pence (R-Indiana) has introduced an amendment to cut off federal funds to Planned Parenthood. In a press release yesterday, he noted: [...]
Tuesday, leaders from pro-abortion groups held a press conference at the National Press Club to highlight their opposition to Initiated Measure 11. This ballot initiative would ban abortions in the state of South Dakota except for cases of rape, incest and the life of the mother. Such a challenge to Roe could possibly make its [...]
Tuesday, I wrote about Planned Parenthood’s endorsement of Barack Obama [this is a correction from the original post, I accidentally wrote "John McCain"-- this was WRONG]. In my post, I mentioned that McCain has a zero percent voting record with PPFA and their score was based upon 125 votes McCain cast on legislation “related to [...]
This is a big issue of concern to me and I wish it were of concern to more Black Americans. As noted in the following article, Black Americans make up only about 13 percent of the U.S. Population yet they receive over 1/3 of all abortions. Talk about a tragedy! And of course Planned Parenthood’s [...]
In move that the organization’s leaders hope makes them more appealing to upscale clients, Planned Parenthood is building larger building with interiors designed to appear “posh.” I didn’t see this until Friday, but the Wall Street Journal blog noted that the centers “include muted lighting, hardwood floors, airy waiting rooms in colors selected by maketing [...]
Although the number of abortions in this country is on the decline, Planned Parenthood made over a billion dollars for the first time in its history during its 2006-2007 fiscal year. And the number of abortions Planned Parenthood affiliates have performed has gone up. PPFA now does about one quarter of all abortions nationwide. And [...]
It’s been a busy week and I have not had a chance to address anything that has happened. First up, John McCain has said that he will keep the pro-life plank in the Republican platform. This is always a source of controversy on some level every election year. To have the candidate announce his intention [...]
Just as I transcribed Hillary Clinton’s July 17th speech before the Planned Parenthood Action Fund, I am hard at work finishing the transcript for Barack Obama’s speech. I’ll be posting highlights tomorrow.
