Planned Parenthood-Could They Possibly Be Secretly Using Federal Funding to Fund Abortions

[Inquiringperson]

where did i say this happened often?

I felt that you implied that abortion is necessary. That’s caused from me over analyzing something.

No. My daughter works for Planned Parenthood and is the one through whom all monies flow. She is an expert in non-profit management, laws and reporting.

About 10% of the total budget for Planned Parenthood in any one location pays for abortion procedures. That’s from independent donors and fund-raisers. And they don’t use all of that money for the abortions, so they aren’t even tempted to use government funds.

For many women and others, their local Planned Parenthood clinic is the only source of medical care they have. Including prenatal care. That is, they also help women have healthy babies. PP does a huge amount of education and community outreach.

No, they don’t.

I challenge you to find a single PP office where there is not abundant low cost/free health care provided nearby

I do know that the Planned Parenthood Political Action Committee was running radio commericals in Chicago last week. They asked people to call the offices of two US Representatives from Illinois and demand answers for why they voted to cut funding to abortion providers, except they never mentioned abortion. The commercials follow the lead of the majority leader of the US Senate who tried to characterize the vote as an attack on women who need cancer screenings. I saw Harry Reid’s speech live on CNBC and it qualifed as the most pathetic politcal speech I have ever seen. The commercials gave me one more thing to pray about during Holy Week.

Apparently they see the purchase of ads in a large media market as a good investment if it brings them government money from you and me. If they really believed that PP did good work, they could have donated the money used on commercials directly to PP.

I challenge you to prove any of the slander in this thread has any basis in fact.

What people on the outside don’t realize is that all non-profits are under constant scrutiny and those monies are scrupulously accounted-for. Federal monies and all other monies are not places in the same accounts.

The premise of this thread is simply wrong. The two Planned Parenthood locations near me do abortions one day a week. But the clinics are open all week long. You think they’re in there playing Monopoly?

I was talking to my daughter about this thread and she said, “What they don’t get is, if they take away the government funding, abortions is all we will do, because we’ll lose the money for everything else.”

It costs a few thousands dollars to buy one of those “robot infants” that Planned Parenthood uses in schools, the ones the kids take home and have to care for. That Catholics don’t believe in birth control, doesn’t mean others people shouldn’t make up their own minds. That we believe in chastity, doesn’t mean teen-agers should have STDs and spread them because they won’t tell their parents or get treatment. That you think there are all these medical resources… well… look up the locations of a few offices and then you give me the location of the nearest “low cost/free me healthcare” that’s “nearby.”

You get rid of Planned Parenthood and a major source of cancer-screening for women will simply disappear. Get rid of them, and the abortion industry, the for-profit horror that is Big Business Abortion will explode. Many many more teen-aged boys will show up with multiple STDs they acquired from oral sex saying, “I didn’t know you could get it like that.”

You want to demonize PP, but what people need to do is actually find out how many politicians and friends of politicians own shares in abortion clinics, the real things: the for-profit ones. These are the same men who own “out-call” services, and they do not want anyone interfering with the abortion trade their own women need.

You know, **if we made states regulate for-profit abortion clinics as closely as non-profits like Planned Parenthood are regulated they would go out of business **or only rich people would be able to afford their services. You are pointed at Planned Parenthood because attacking them won’t eat into anyone’s profits. You are told or have whispered to you lies about Planned Parenthood, to keep you outraged.

There should be outrage. There are just much better places to put it.

There is no slander. Just stateing the facts, Planned Parenthood makes a substantial amount of money every year killing children. There is absolutely nothing they offer health care wise that is not readily available from a variety of health care providers who do kill children as part of their “health” care services.
