#1 - Mon Oct 3, 2011 12:50 PM EDTI am so sick of this @!$%#. How about we concentrate on something that affects millions of American citizens like JOBS. How about funding all health care - KEEP the CATHOLICS out of my government - they rather have women die than pregnancies be terminated.

In other words the woman's life is not worth @!$%# but we must preserve those non-viable embryos and fetuses. After all the world is not over populated enough & if they starve afterward - eh sucks to be them. Its not like the pope living in his palace has to worry about being homeless & hungry & not being able to afford health care - its just all of us lesser people.

More lies.
There is no federal funding for PP's "abortions business".
You can't stop something that doesn't exist.

#3 - Mon Oct 3, 2011 3:51 PM EDTPlanned Parenthood president Cecile Richards issued a statement last week condemning the legislation.
“Eliminating funding for the Title X family planning program and prohibiting Planned Parenthood from providing preventive health care through federal programs will result in millions of women across the country losing access to basic primary and preventive health care,” Richards said.
The new bill also came under attack from both pro-abortion organizations and pro-abortion lawmakers.
“Another health-related provision prohibits any funding under the bill from going to any Planned Parenthood affiliate unless the organization promises not to perform abortions with non-federal funds,” Congresswoman Rosa DeLauro, a pro-abortion Connecticut Democrat and a member of the subcommittee, groused. “The main effect would probably be to prohibit Medicaid patients from choosing to receive services such as contraception and cancer screenings from Planned Parenthood clinics.”
Emily’s List, a top pro-abortion political group, complained as well: “This once again proves that Republicans will stop at nothing in their War on Women. The GOP doesn’t care if millions of women are left without the basic care like family planning and cancer screenings they’ve come to depend on. They don’t care if they violate the privacy of women and their personal medical choices. And if this is their top priority, then they must not care about the millions of Americans who are looking for work.”
There are no "pro-abortion" groups--only groups that support a woman's right to make that choice.
