[QUOTE="moreluck, post: 995137, member: 1246"] Note: Planned Parenthood derives more than 80% of its revenue from abortions and does [B]not[/B] provide mammograms, they are simply a referral service (hence the reason Komen initialy withdrew its funding). Planned Parenthood Chief: “Our Work Is Consistent With Conservative Republican Values”… How is killing babies “consistent” with conservative values? [B]Cecile Richards: Republicans Aren’t Abandoning Planned Parenthood — National Journal[/B] [INDENT][B]NJ [/B]Why do conservatives, including Rush Limbaugh, keep reviving these issues? [B]Richards[/B] They know the fire’s hot but they just keep putting their hand in it. We’ve had a cascading waterfall of new supporters starting with efforts to defund Planned Parenthood by the House. I’m not surprised by anything Rush Limbaugh says. He seems to live to provoke people. I was certainly encouraged to see the uniform — almost uniform — reaction and public conversation about the inappropriateness (of what he said about Sandra Fluke). My reaction was to call my daughters and just feel like you had to apologize that any man would ever say that to a woman. [B]NJ[/B] In a recent op-ed in [I]The New York Times[/I], Campbell Brown accused Planned Parenthood of self-destructive behavior, including “blind partisanship” and burning instead of building bridges to Republicans. [B]Richards[/B] Many Republicans support Planned Parenthood and they have for decades. Frankly our work is consistent with the conservative Republican values of individual responsibility and government staying out of people’s personal lives. In Arizona, Peggy Goldwater [Barry Goldwater’s wife] was one of our founders. The entire presidential primary was a race to the bottom on women’s health care. It’s very challenging when you have a Republican Party platform that is demanding Republican opposition to [[I]Roe v. Wade[/I]], demanding opposition to Planned Parenthood, opposition to birth control coverage. Frankly, I think that is out of step with where the American people are. [/INDENT] [/QUOTE]
