Promoted from the diaries by Bill
Today, abortion giant Planned Parenthood released its 2008-2009 Annual Report.
Behind the colorful graphics and happy faces is a stark number: Planned Parenthood received $363 million in government grants and contracts from 2008 to 2009 alone, all at the expense of the U.S. Taxpayer and the lives of unborn babies.
How many lives are we talking? 324,008 unborn human lives destroyed in one year. How many adoption referrals? 9,433.
And that number of lives ended and women wounded will continue to rise as the amount of federal funding they receive continues to rise:

Going into 2011, the funding level is set to go up should Congress pass the latest Omnibus Appropriations bill headed for a vote in the next few days:
- $327 million is allocated for the Title X Family Planning Program – which provides funding to Planned Parenthood. This is a $44 million increase over the last four years.
- $710 million is allocated for international family planning/reproductive health which provides funding to organizations such as Planned Parenthood that promote and perform abortion overseas. This marks a massive $270 million increase over the last four years.
Add those two numbers together, and we’re at over a billion. Speaking of abortions overseas, Planned Parenthood notes in its report:
- “In Kenya, we worked with advocates who developed a grassroots campaign to increase public support for decriminalizing abortion.” (page 20)
- “In Latin America and the Caribbean, we offered training for health center security and tracking groups hostile to women’s health and family planning.” (page 20)
- “In northern Nigeria, we overcame the reluctance of a large religious organization to introduce basic reproductive health care through its more than 100 health centers. Now, more than 60 of those centers offer birth control and refer women to private medical providers if they need a safe abortion.” (page 21)
The solution is clear and simple: it’s time to Stop Abortion Funding and Defund Planned Parenthood.
We made major pro-life gains last month, but they mean absolutely nothing if we do not turn them into serious legislative gains for the unborn.
Be a voice for the voiceless unborn. Join the fight here.

So, let me see if I get this straight...
LaborUnionReport (Diary) Thursday, December 16th at 6:40PM EDT (link)As a nation, we paid $1,120.34 for every single one of the 324,008 American babies that were killed?
As a nation, America killed more of her children than the entire population of Akron, Ohio…in one year.
Tragic.

And, let us not forget that Obama reversed the “Mexico City Policy” within a few days of taking office in January, 2009. It is a travesty. He is, by far, the MOST pro-abortion president I think we have ever had. PP violates states’ laws on a regular basis, yet the federal government continues to fund it and rarely are their clinics punished for their abuses.

Can someone explain to me...
melbedewy (Diary) Thursday, December 16th at 7:13PM EDT (link)how this scummy crew gets federal funding?
Also, I “assume” that come noon January 3 this funding will immediately HALT?
Just like Christie stopped funding the clinics in NJ.
They claim that there are separate funding streams
Next93 (Diary) Thursday, December 16th at 11:04PM EDT (link)The sophistry is that the federal money they receive doesn’t go to abortions, that the abortions are funded by a separate stream.
Of course, this is compplete nonsense. I’t's kind of like saying that a boat is only leaking on one side.

So if
melbedewy (Diary) Friday, December 17th at 8:48AM EDT (link)the Ku Klux Klan (Senator Byrd’s former employer) opens up a soup kitchen it is OK to fund them?
This is pure BS. It needs to be stopped in 2 weeks pronto. Let Soros, Buffet, Gates and the Joan Kroc Foundation fund the baby killers.
Funding began,

Many people may not be aware that PP’s founder, Margaret Sanger, was a known eugenicist, and I wonder if some of her philosophies remain within the organization.

Margaret Sanger was

Just take a look at the abortion numbers by race, collected and reported by our own government.

izoneguy (Diary) Thursday, December 16th at 7:15PM EDT (link)After dozens of deaths, drop-side cribs outlawed
http://news.yahoo.com/s/ap/20101215/ap_on_bi_ge/us_safer_cribs_6
So the government destroys a product line of cribs and potentially putting hundreds? thousands? of people out of work because 30 -
three zero babies died in the past decade??? One death is tragic
but the government could save millions of lives per decade if they quit the headlong rush to keep funding planned parenthood.
Those who had once simpered: “I don’t want to destroy the rich, I only want to seize a little of their surplus to help the poor, just a little, they’ll never miss it!” – then, later, had snapped: “The tycoons can stand being squeezed; they’ve amassed enough to last them for three generations” – then, later, had yelled: “Why should the people suffer while businessmen have reserves to last a year?” – now were screaming: “Why should we starve while some people have reserves to last a week?” – Atlas Shrugged
Oh, it gets dumber...
Next93 (Diary) Friday, December 17th at 9:26AM EDT (link)There was a story a few months ago about window blind manufacturers recalling anything that had a cord, becuase some idiots put a crib next to the window and thier infant “almost” was injured. They cited “a dozen or more” similar incidents over the past decade.
Point 1: what kind of moron positions the crib next the cord for the blinds? Even if that was the only place in the room that the crib fit, you can take down the blinds!
Point 2: what is “almost injured”? Isn’t that the same as “certainly wasn’t injured”?
Point 3: take the number of children “almost injured” over a decade and divide by the number of blinds installed in this country, and you get the IQ of the people who panic over crap like this.
Obama was The One in 2008.
He’ll be a BIGGER one in 2012.
Once again that name Cuccinelli comes up again as to abortion clinics in Virginia

Don’t know where this stands at this time, but, Cuccinelli has been on top of it. He’s a little busy right now with his Ocare lawsuit, and, he is still on top of his lawsuit to get the information from UVA as to Michael Mann’s hockey stick crap while he was at UVA. This guy is going places.
ps- Cuccinelli has also released an opinion
Scope (Diary) Thursday, December 16th at 7:43PM EDT (link)that Virginia police departments can ask for ID for anyone stopped for any violation, within the law of course.
So many travesties to unfund,

Menlo (Diary) Thursday, December 16th at 8:28PM EDT (link)Their racism knows no bounds.
As for the referrals in Nigeria, I wasn’t thinking abortion was legal anywhere there, but I guess that is no hindrance to Planned Parenthood, especially with the type of law enforcement they are dealing with.
It makes me wonder though. What other illegal activity is being funded in other countries? That’s like funding the Mexican drug gangs.

At the risk of being yelled at...
congressworksforus (Diary) Friday, December 17th at 7:32AM EDT (link)This statement:
“And that number of lives ended and women wounded will continue to rise as the amount of federal funding they receive continues to rise”
should really read:
“And that number of lives ended and women wounded BY PLANNED PARENTHOOD will continue to rise as the amount of federal funding they receive continues to rise:”
I point this out because I don’t see any data that shows the number of abortions rising on the national level so my assumption is that planned parenthood is just increasing their share
Remember, if the left wins, abortion will not only be legal, it will be mandatory.
OKAY I'LL YELL AT YOU!
bigmaude Friday, December 17th at 8:37AM EDT (link)You are right congressworksforus! Someone tell me if there is any stats in mammograms in the budget? Don’t forget Susan g kohmen give to PP. Kohls. All in the name of research.
Planned Parenthood sent out an email for those of you who don’t know what to give your woman for Christmas! Stocking stuffer, or snuffers, gift certificates. Yea it’s called “Choice on Earth”. Sick. Also, if you want to know about what is going on after hours at Planned Parenthood, go to www.worldviewweekend.com and look for the radio commentary about it. Hint, satanic rituals, practice on pregnant women how to abort if roe/wade is overturned. We have got to defund this hellish company, started by Margaret Sanger to kill off the “Negro”‘population because she believed they were weeds. Anyone with me?
Here it is four hours later,
bigmaude Friday, December 17th at 10:04AM EDT (link)And just 16 comments. So sad. If the post were on Sarah Palin or wikileaks, it would be triple.
I downloaded the report. Two things stuck out, a memorial to Goerge Tiller. A man who had no problem cutting up baby parts to pull out of the “mother”. And Barack Obama hugging the CEO of Planned Parenthood, Cecile Richards, and one more thing, on page 27, Tara Broderick at a podium. She looks angry. What’s wrong Tara, not enough babies dying to satisfy your thirst for blood. May God help this depraved, sick country.

Strip PP of all federal and state funds
paint_it_red (Diary) Friday, December 17th at 7:51PM EDT (link)Someone needs to introduce a bill to tie any federal aid to the states via highway bill and other funding sources states perennially rely upon to giving zero money to Planned Parenthood. Absolute zero. That’s $360,000,000/yr less in the deficit right there. That’s $360,000,000 less going to a group that elects liberals who do not care for life. Just about every politician this site has worked against is in bed with these murderers.
Once the leeching off the public fisc stops, so will many, perhaps hundreds, of abortion clinics.

Good plan of action

Thank you for all of your continued work in trying to end this barbaric and inhumane practice, Marjorie. I’ll be praying for you, and will be looking with interest at your future posts.

No More Tax Dollars
leehazel Saturday, December 18th at 2:16PM EDT (link)The idea that American taxpayer dollars are finding their way to the coffers of Planned Parenthood is repugnant at best and criminal at worst. This must stop.
No sane nation would willingly participate in the wholesale murder of its infant children.
No sane nation would let this happen using the public purse to fund such an atrocity.
This practice should not only be defunded but should be the prosecutable crime of infanticide. This would indicate a sane Nation.
I can not even imagine a more serious breach of the public trust than the public funding of infant murder. The Holocaust pales in comparison.
Planned Parenthood's Hidden Ugly Racist Intentions
sandy21957 Sunday, December 19th at 10:05PM EDT (link)Planned Parenthood is not the civic minded, benign group that they want us to believe them to be. They are a racist group of people with a long history of quietly giving the poor and black communities a holocaust of unspeakable numbers. Shame on them. Watch www.maafa21.com and share the info. Very important.
