URGENT: Cuomo Hoping for More 'Gosnells' to Have an Opportunity in NY

Gov. Andrew "CINO" Cuomo of New York has some close friends scheduled to visit Albany on Tuesday: Planned Parenthood. The purpose of the visit is to lobby, and it is expected their reward will be rich in more dead children for the nation's abortion capitol. When a politician gets a a 'tweet' hug from Cecile Richards, it is quite an honor - that is, if you're into killing more babies.




Planned Parenthood has had plenty of headlines at +Ponderings+, and Cuomo earned Misguided Politician of the Week earlier this year. Do what you can NOW to make your voice heard. Stop the killing. Stop Cuomo.

UPDATED: On Parental Priorities: Planned Parenthood & Popularity

Since this story was first posted, a positive ending has developed.... This is a lesson for all parents and educators.  Read on...

It's a good thing my family loves me. I'm not feeling a whole lot of love these days. As I was planning to write my third and final installment in the On Parental Priorities series, I received a permission slip from our son's school. I had already outlined my thoughts focusing on the failure of the Domestic Church in regard to the catechization of our children, and how this is affecting our Catholic Schools. The slip I was expected to sign brought the intended topic to a boil for me so I put it aside for a week or so.

The beginning of the story is probably best expressed in another entry from a year ago I called On Blood Pressure, Edmund Burke and the Domestic Church (opens in a new window/tab). You'll follow along better if you read that entry first. Just do it and I'll be right back.

Now, about that permission slip. Once again, seventh and eighth graders throughout our county were invited to a "Youth Leadership Conference" and the sponsors are as follows:
  1. Our county Youth Bureau
  2. Our city's Youth Bureau
  3. Our local community college (they provide the location for the event)
  4. Our local YMCA 
  5. Planned Parenthood
I made my displeasure fury about the situation known last year. It was received with a confused expression, and the wordless message I received back was that I had lost my mind. How could I possibly be upset over Planned Parenthood's sponsorship of a conference my son was to intend? (I am purposely leaving bits of the story out to protect certain ignorant individuals involved. Yes, I said ignorant.) I felt called to instruct the ignorant, I did, and here I am. Once again, I'm a crazy person who cannot understand why a Catholic school will send their students to a conference sponsored by Planned Parenthood. There are two Catholic schools in our county and both participate. There, I said it. It is now stamped forever in some cyber-cache. So sue me.  

This year, my approach was different. I simply sent an e-mail stating that our son would not attend anything that was sponsored by Planned Parenthood, and that like last year, we would attend Mass and engage in works of mercy instead. I didn't receive a reply and didn't expect to. There wasn't really anything to say. Another parent called me to discuss transportation to the conference. I told her that a conference sponsored by Planned Parenthood went against everything our family believes and she thanked me for the reminder. She had forgotten they were a sponsor. Then she went to visit a friend at the youth bureau and that friend assured her that Planned Parenthood hasn't made a presentation at the event in the past few years due to parental concerns. I corrected the parent by sending her a news link to the event where the presentation and presenter were both plainly mentioned last year. A couple of other parents contacted me after they questioned the involvement of Planned Parenthood in the conference. They had both heard through 'the grapevine' that I refused to sign the permission slip. Unlike me, they received a reply via e-mail. They were told that our children were going to be kept away from Planned Parenthood leaders and that the teachers were to make certain that the students did not attend any presentations offered by Planned Parenthood.

One father of a younger student shared that word substitution would better illustrate the absurdity of our attendance at the event. Substitute Planned Parenthood with KKK, Convicted Sex Offenders, North American Man Boy Love Association, Nazi Party, Adolph Hitler, and it would be more clear that our participation was preposterous. Maybe. The bottom line in this situation is simple: everyone else is doing it! I admit that I did have a glimmer of hope that some sort of Divine intervention or spiritual enlightenment would take place. I've now lost hope in this situation. I'll have to wait for the conference to be highlighted in the newspaper again, with our kids on the front page in their uniforms at an event sponsored by Planned Parenthood. All of this so that they can learn yoga, how to get along with others, and other Obama-like niceties. Yes, I am completely void of any charitable words, and to say that I am in the desert over Lent is an understatement. 

In addition to contacting responsible parties at our school, I also wrote another letter to the editor of our local newspaper. I am hoping that the reason I didn't receive a call for verification was due to the overwhelming length of it. They do suggest between 250-400 words and my contribution pushed to nearly 600 words. After a week of no confirmation call from the newspaper, I resubmitted a much abbreviated version at 250 words. Now I wait for the call and hope the letter is printed prior to the event.  My original, longer version is as follows:

If you live in Genesee County and have a child in 7th or 8th grade, you most likely received a permission slip for the annual Youth Leadership Conference to be held at GCC on March 13, 2012. Once again, Planned Parenthood is listed as a partner of the program. Few parents question their presence in a conference intended for 12-14 year old kids; most signed the permission slip without a second thought.  
Last year, a Planned Parenthood representative offered a presentation at the same conference based upon a quote attributed to the18th century philosopher Edmund Burke, "The only thing necessary for the triumph of evil is for good men to do nothing." On their own website, they describe themselves this way: "Planned Parenthood is the nation’s leading sexual and reproductive health care provider and advocate." Strange how a sexual and reproductive service advocate is teaching our children about good and evil, don't you think? Why would they want to be affiliated with a group of young teens? They are simply grooming future customers.
Planned Parenthood's foundress, Margaret Sanger, was a proponent of eugenics. She believed the purpose of promoting birth control was "to create a race of thoroughbreds," as she wrote in the Birth Control Review, Nov. 1921. Today, Planned Parenthood receives over 300 million taxpayer dollars per year. Your son or daughter cannot be given an aspirin without your written consent at school, yet Planned Parenthood can market sexual information and services to your child, and you can do nothing about it. It is a private matter between Planned Parenthood and your child. They provide over 1,000,000 "emergency contraceptive kits" to girls every year following unprotected sexual relations. To guarantee a failed pregnancy should one have taken place, they give the girl hormone pills that are 50 times the dosage of an average birth control pill. According to their own numbers, 11% of their healthcare clients receive abortion services. They also report providing "education" to over one million clients a year. They want to parent your children because to them, it is clear that you are not up to the task.
They recently launched a major campaign against the Susan G. Komen foundation when SGK decided to withhold future funding to certain Planned Parenthood facilities that were under Federal investigation. Planned Parenthood reacted with an all-out assault against SGK, and reportedly received much more in donations in just two days than the $680,000 they stood to lose. Mayor Bloomberg led the charge by offering a matching grant of $250,000 of his own money to Planned Parenthood. SGK's website was hacked, the organization was verbally assaulted and bullied, and their top official was pressured to resign. With their funding from SGK restored, now Planned Parenthood has directed its full attention on the Catholic Church and all who stand in the way of providing free contraceptives and "emergency birth control" to all Americans. Instead of recognizing the HHS mandate as attack on religious liberty, they accuse people with moral convictions of being "Anti-choice extremists" who "do everything they can to prevent women and men from taking charge of their lives." 
If you have children, please be a parent to them. Talk with them about what issues are important to your family, teach them what values are crucial to you, and give them a firm foundation on which to grow into adulthood. Know the intentions of people and organizations who want to serve as a mentor to your children. I've provided you with quotes from Planned Parenthood, and I'll leave you with one last to consider.
"A dead thing can go with the stream, but only a living thing can go against it." -- G.K. Chesterton
 
If you've read this far, I thank you from the bottom of my heart. I know that God is with my family in this fight, though I do wish more than a few parents (among other individuals) were as outraged as I am. We continue to swim against the stream, though it does seem to be a very lonely crusade. I am so deeply disappointed in my brothers and sisters who are Catholic, yet are clearly CINO. I don't expect the secularists to 'get it,' but when our fellow Catholics miss the boat...

*And the former three-part series on parental priorities will actually be a four-part series. Stay tuned.
Part One is HERE, Part Two is HERE

Edited to add: I found this quote posted online. Bishop Mansell was our previous Bishop in the DOB and he put a stop to building of a $4.6 million senior home when the Diocese found out the same builder was building a Planned Parenthood facility.

Most Reverend Henry J. MansellBishop of Buffalo, New York
13 August 2000
"We're not proceeding, because of the contractor's involvement with Planned Parenthood," said Monsignor Henry J. Gugino, head of housing development for the Catholic Diocese of Buffalo, New York. The comment was made as the diocese, at the direction of its bishop, halted construction on a $4.6 million dollar home for seniors in Wheatfield, N.Y., when it found out the contractor was also building offices for Planned Parenthood. Bishop Henry J. Mansell's spokesman, Monsignor David M. Lee, said the bishop and other diocesan officials decided to put the project on hold because of "moral concerns." --SOURCE

March 13, 2012: The letter to the editor was published last weekend. Find it HERE. Today is the big day for the Youth Leadership Conference. All are in our prayers. I was able to obtain a description of the program to be presented by Planned Parenthood. The Youth Bureau continued to insist that no representative of Planned Parenthood was making a presentation and they lied. It is right there in their program. They failed to identify the Planned Parenthood employee, thus continuing to pile on the lies. I chose to omit the name of the presenter. I believe that the enemy is the organization, not the people working for it.
Breaking Out of the Box: Are Some "Rules" Made to be Broken?
PRESENTER: T______ A_______
Our society has so many rules for what it means to be a guy or a girl. Music, television, magazines, parents, friends, and even toys give us messages about how we're supposed to act based on our gender! In this workshop, we're going to look at what it means to be a guy or a girl in this culture, what our society TELLS us we're supposed to be, and how assumptions about gender can lead to harassment and relationship violence. This interactive presentation will get you talking, thinking and decoding the real messages you see and hear every day about gender and relationships.
Those darn parents - making rules. Goodness knows what poor Johnny will have to endure if he wasn't given Barbie dolls to play with alongside his blocks. 

For our family, it didn't matter whether Planned Parenthood was going to make a presentation or not. It was simply offensive to have them listed as a sponsor. I suppose that I'm left to question why the Director of Planned Parenthood is on the board at the Youth Bureau. This was their excuse for having Planned Parenthood listed as a sponsor. By the way, the presenter at the conference (she specializes in Rape Crisis Counseling at PP) lists V-Day as one of her affiliations. The Rochester V-Day will be marked by the performances of The Vagina Monologues, a Drag Show, and BRAWL (Broads Regional Arm Wrestling League) - all in the name of ending violence against women. They objectify women and expect to not become objects.  Case in point, these suckers which were sold at an event last year.

Perhaps you are avoiding chocolate during Lent. You can always go to the V-Day website and purchase a vagina ring or necklace. I'm not kidding. I'll spare you the picture - you can click here to see if you're curious. Maybe a vagina warrior knit cap is more to your liking. Any man wearing that would clearly see women for more than their private parts, right?  Of course I'm being sarcastic. The absurdity, lies, and double-talk must be exposed for what it is. I am a woman and I want to be identified as a person made in God's image, with a soul, a mind of my own, interests, pet peeves, and a personality; not by my reproductive organs. And these people want to sponsor a youth conference? Remember - they're only interest is women's health care. Or so they would like you to think.


Vagina shaped suckers being sold with the stated intention of stopping violence against women.
Sure - objectify them, and then teach people to eat female genitalia. Makes sense - to someone I guess.
Picture from their Facebook page

Would you like to hear some good news that has come out of this?  
I was just contacted by another parent and due to a whole lot of research and accumulation of evidence, OUR SCHOOL WILL NEVER AGAIN PARTICIPATE IN THE CONFERENCE. The lies on behalf of the Youth Bureau and/or Planned Parenthood were uncovered.  The moral of the story: whenever you see or hear that Planned Parenthood is sponsoring or presenting anything, run in the other direction and make the biggest noise you can until you get people to listen.  Thanks be to God!
Updated 2/2014: Wait! The good news was only good for one year! It is back!

dear Planned Parenthood, Bring it On!


http://i--have--a--say.blogspot.com/



This next video is NOT to be viewed by children. It is an offensive expose of material propagated by PP:



By the numbers as reported by Planned Parenthood themselves:

  • 11% of PP's 'healthcare clients' receive abortion services (they shout from the rooftops that 3% of their services are abortions. They justify this because they pad their numbers by including services to the community that are not healthcare services. If they offer a presentation for 1,000 people, they count them as being served. Only when they provide their 'healthcare' service numbers do we see the truth. Nearly 1 out of 10 healthcare visits end in abortion.)
  • Number of clients receiving 'healthcare' at PP clinics: 2,900,000
  • Amount of federal tax money given to PP last year: $487,000,000
  • Number of adoption referrals in 2010: 841
  • Number of mammograms performed by PP annually: 0

"Guilty? Yes. No matter what the motive, love of ease, or a desire to save from suffering the unborn innocent, the woman is awfully guilty who commits the deed. It will burden her conscience in life, it will burden her soul in death; But oh, thrice guilty is he who drove her to the desperation which impelled her to the crime!"--Susan B. Anthony on abortion. The Revolution, 1869.

On Blood Pressure, Edmund Burke and the Domestic Church

This blog entry has been ruminating for a few weeks now and was delayed until my blood pressure finally recovered to within a normal range.  Actually, I never took my blood pressure, and for all I know it never ventured into the danger zone.  I can tell you that I lost a lot of sleep and my left eye twitched with such frequency that the crow's feet are more deeply defined on one side of my face.  All due to the 'mama bear' reflex gone into overdrive.  If you have no idea what I'm talking about, just know that to 'mess with' me or my faith, I can calmly re-educate you. Mess with my kid... watch out for Mama Bear!
Knowing that our regular readers are just as passionate about certain sensitive topics as I am, I thought I'd update you on a topic I brushed upon HERE in an earlier entry.  From that post:
Our son who is in 7th grade came home with a permission slip for us to sign last night.  It was for a seminar to be held at our local community college this month with the main theme of tackling bullying.  The program is only for junior high students from all of the local schools and seems quite benign.  He shared that they will have a speaker and then can choose different programs to attend.  Then I found at the bottom a list of sponsors of the 2011 conference - YMCA, our local drug and alcohol abuse council, the college, other similar community organizations and at the tail end of the list was  PLANNED PARENTHOOD.  My reaction was not very contained when I read it and thankfully our son looked at me knowingly and asked, "What?  You saw Planned Parenthood is on the form?"  This was just last night and for fear of losing your interest so soon, I'll cut the details and get to the bottom line.  By 8 a.m. I already had e-mailed the school principal with my concerns and sent Alex to school without the permission slip and written a letter to the editor of the local paper. 
I was assured that Planned Parenthood was not to have any information distributed (or condoms?) to our children  and they were not making any presentations.  Were we going to be sending our son to something where Planned Parenthood was listed as a sponsor?  We could not in good conscience send him.  There were no pros to the situation no matter how deeply we looked.  Between spasms overwhelming my eyelid, I desperately tried to figure out which was becoming more upsetting to me:  Was it that Planned Parenthood was involved in this project for our children or that no other parent or adult in charge was upset about Planned Parenthood's involvement?  The more I thought about it, the more agitated I became.  I had become a three-eyed alien furious with an event that left other people looking bored to death.  There was this huge, white elephant in the room and I was the only one (beside my husband) who saw that it was about to devour our children.

Taking the lemons I was served, we made the best out of the awkwardly quiet situation.  Our parish was to celebrate the start of a 40-hours devotion on that very day.  It just so happened that my Bible study group also was to meet that day.  The day of the youth conference, our son and I had an amazingly blessed day.  We started with attending Mass that morning and then went to Bible study for two hours.  From Bible study, we went to adoration where we had signed up for a holy hour before the Blessed Sacrament.  Not knowing if he would be up to an entire hour after our long morning, I told our son that if he wanted to leave the church earlier, he could just go step outside and wait for me.  I lost track of time and being without a watch, I realized that much more than an hour must have passed.  I turned to leave to find him and there he was, still kneeling in a pew in the back.  He smiled and I looked at his watch - we'd been there in prayer for well over one hour and thirty minutes.  We walked out and I asked him how his time with the Lord was.  He looked at me with a huge smile on his face and he said, "Mom, this is the best day I have had in a long time."  Wow.   God is great!  And to think of the alternative programming option for the day...

My letter to the editor did not make it into the paper that day, but it was printed the following day.  Our local online news website covered the youth conference and included pictures.  They acknowledged various supporters of the event and clearly absent was the mention of Planned Parenthood.  I noted that in a comment to the author of the article and he replied to my comments noting that indeed Planned Parenthood was involved, and in fact, one of their "educators" had led a presentation that was offered to the children.  What was the topic?  Named after the quote often attributed to Edmund Burke,  the 18th century philosopher, "The only thing necessary for the triumph of evil is for good men to do nothing." Please forgive my repetitive nature, but I must point out the searingly ironic information again:  Planned Parenthood taught seventh and eighth graders about GOOD AND EVIL?!  If the bold print and capital letters do not convey the image of me to your mind's eye when I first read that information, please picture a 40-something woman with a twitchy eye, head spinning and green slime flying out of her eyes and mouth.  Too vivid?  You have no idea how understated the description is.

Our son came home from school and shared that his classmates all told him that Planned Parenthood wasn't even there - he stayed home for a complete waste of time.  He had missed a lot of fun at the youth conference and a free lunch.  At this point, it had become clear that many, many adults must have been abducted by aliens and had their brains replaced with something, well, alien.  All common sense, obligation to the Domestic Church and commitment to a good quality education for our children thrown to the nearest metallic disc flying through the sky.  I would offer to give them a clue but reconsidered knowing that I had played court jester long enough and made my viewpoint amply clear.  And their viewpoint had been sadly made loud and clear - to me at least.

Time to Catch Up

After having scared off regular readers of +Ponderings+ following my long absence, I still feel the need to share what has been going on with me and what you may have missed in the news about our Church.

Me:  I am not one to share much information about myself, not so much out of concern for privacy, but it just goes against the hub of my personality.  On a celebratory note, our family is no longer under the yoke of pay television.  We had the satellite dish disconnected and don't even have an antenna for broadcast television.  We don't miss the junk that came into our home on a daily basis and have discovered some wonderful films and television programs on Netflix.  Out with the Viagra commercials, in with "The Bells of Saint Mary's" and "A Man for all Seasons".

There are two things that have occupied much of my mind and the first I wish to share is this:  Our son who is in 7th grade came home with a permission slip for us to sign last night.  It was for a seminar to be held at our local community college this month with the main theme of tackling bullying.  The program is only for junior high students from all of the local schools and seems quite benign.  He shared that they will have a speaker and then can choose different programs to attend.  Then I found at the bottom a list of sponsors of the 2011 conference - YMCA, our local drug and alcohol abuse council, the college, other similar community organizations and at the tail end of the list was  PLANNED PARENTHOOD.  My reaction was not very contained when I read it and thankfully our son looked at me knowingly and asked, "What?  You saw Planned Parenthood is on the form?"  This was just last night and for fear of losing your interest so soon, I'll cut the details and get to the bottom line.  By 8 a.m. I already had e-mailed the school principal with my concerns and sent Alex to school without the permission slip and written a letter to the editor of the local paper.  After dropping by the school this morning and speaking with the principal about the issue, I drove past our local PP office and stared at the beautiful brick-faced and tastefully trimmed old building, feeling entirely ineffective and helpless. It was almost as if the building was mocking me.

Second, the all-time most popular post on +Ponderings+ is about end of life care.  Find my December 2009 post about how our family is currently facing difficult decisions HERE.  I just updated the entry.

"So here's to the women leaders in Congress -- and to the nuns -- "



Heretics among us are receiving thanks from the leader of Planned Parenthood, each of them requiring our prayers - each of them needing to be fitted for asbestos suits - just in case. From Cecile Richards, Planned Parenthood President, on our recent Health Care Reform bill, now law:




"Some ask why didn't we yell even louder than we did? Why didn't we overturn the Hyde amendment, which has unfairly prevented poor women from having their health insurance -- Medicaid-- pay for abortion? The simple and discouraging truth is that we have an anti-choice House of Representatives. With the help of the Planned Parenthood Action Fund's political action committee, things got better in 2008, with the election of 28 new pro-choice members of the House and, more importantly, eight new pro-choice U.S. senators. But if you're scoring, when the House voted for the first time on the Stupak abortion ban, 64 Democrats voted in favor of the ban. There are way too many members of Congress who are opposed to women's rights and who vote that way every session -- Republicans and Democrats.

...

And in the last days, when Congressman Stupak and the National Conference of Catholic Bishops threatened to bring down health care reform completely over their narrow demands, the true heroine for women's health was Speaker Nancy Pelosi. She never blinked. In the final hours, when congressional leadership and the White House were scrambling for any vote they could get to reach the magic 216, Speaker Pelosi put herself in the way of the anti-choice steamroller. In private and in public, she vowed that there would be no health care bill if it included the Stupak abortion ban.

And in the final days before the bill was passed, it was the Roman Catholic nuns who most importantly broke with the bishops and the Vatican to announce their support for health care reform. This brave and important move, demonstrating that they cared as much about the health care of families in America as they did about church hierarchy, was a critical demonstration of support. Bart Stupak may not ask the nuns for advice, as he recently announced to the press, but maybe next time he should.

...

It has been a long and difficult process to get health care passed, and the work isn't over yet. But we need more than health care; we need women and men elected to office who will stand up for our health and our rights, even when it's hard. So here's to the women leaders in Congress -- and to the nuns -- and to the women everywhere who were counting on them. They need our gratitude and our support."--Huffington Post

When Catholics are given a pat on the back by the leader of Planned Parenthood, everyone must take notice.  Obviously, the one receiving congratulatory 'warm fuzzies' has strayed far from the Shepherd.

Planned Parenthood's Dirty Little Secret

Margaret Sanger, founder of Planned Parenthood, made her beliefs known to a sleepy nation in the early 20th century.  She needled her way into the homes of Catholic immigrants, urging the occupants to stop reproducing.  Some quotes from Ms. Sanger:

On blacks, immigrants and indigents:
"...human weeds,' 'reckless breeders,' 'spawning... human beings who never should have been born."  Margaret Sanger,
Pivot of Civilization, referring to immigrants and poor people
 
On sterilization & racial purification:
Sanger believed that, for the purpose of racial "purification," couples should be rewarded who chose sterilization. Birth Control in America, The Career of Margaret Sanger, by David Kennedy, p. 117, quoting a 1923 Sanger speech.

On the right of married couples to bear children:
Couples should be required to submit applications to have a child, she wrote in her "Plan for Peace." Birth Control Review, April 1932

On the purpose of birth control:
The purpose in promoting birth control was "to create a race of thoroughbreds," she wrote in the Birth Control Review, Nov. 1921 (p. 2)

On the rights of the handicapped and mentally ill, and racial minorities:
"More children from the fit, less from the unfit -- that is the chief aim of birth control." Birth Control Review, May 1919, p. 12

On religious convictions regarding sex outside of marriage:
"This book aims to answer the needs expressed in thousands on thousands of letters to me in the solution of marriage problems... Knowledge of sex truths frankly and plainly presented cannot possibly injure healthy, normal, young minds. Concealment, suppression, futile attempts to veil the unveilable - these work injury, as they seldom succeed and only render those who indulge in them ridiculous. For myself, I have full confidence in the cleanliness, the open-mindedness, the promise of the younger generation." Margaret Sanger, Happiness in Marriage (Bretano's, New York, 1927)

On the extermination of blacks:
"We do not want word to go out that we want to exterminate the Negro population," she said, "if it ever occurs to any of their more rebellious members." Woman's Body, Woman's Right: A Social History of Birth Control in America, by Linda Gordon

On respecting the rights of the mentally ill:
In her "Plan for Peace," Sanger outlined her strategy for eradication of those she deemed "feebleminded." Among the steps included in her evil scheme were immigration restrictions; compulsory sterilization; segregation to a lifetime of farm work; etc. Birth Control Review, April 1932, p. 107


On adultery:
A woman's physical satisfaction was more important than any marriage vow, Sanger believed. Birth Control in America, p. 11

On the Catholic Church's view of contraception:
"...enforce SUBJUGATION by TURNING WOMAN INTO A MERE INCUBATOR." The Woman Rebel - No Gods, No Masters, May 1914, Vol. 1, No. 3.
The jaw-dropping quotes go on, and on.   I'll let pictures do the talking at the end of this entry. 

To this day, Planned Parenthood thrives like a swamp-land mosquito, sucking the souls from women and the lives from their unborn children.  They recently opened a 78,000 square foot facility in Houston (in a primarily black and latino neighborhood) and the motto is, "we look forward to serving the thousands of women and men in our area who are without health insurance and need affordable health care."  Health care?  Sounds like the politicians in D.C. and elsewhere have been drinking the same Kool-Aid as the Planned Parenthood administration. If they provide health care, perhaps they'll treat asthma, ear infections and diabetes as well?

Now, back to Ms. Sanger.  I figured I'd close with some pictures as they really do say so much more than words.

Below the photo, it states "Margaret Sanger shown speaking to local KKK gals and a few Dragons that crashed the event."  The sign in the right corner of the photo says, "Women Knights of the Ku Klux Klan of Silver Lake N.J. Welcomes Margaret Sanger."

Read more about Ms. Sanger and the empire she founded HERE and HERE.   
 
H.G. Wells, one of Ms. Sanger's lovers, once said this about her:
 
 "Alexander the Great changed a few boundaries and killed a few men. Both he and Napoleon were forced into fame by circumstances outside of themselves and by currents of the time, but Margaret Sanger made currents and circumstances. When the history of our civilization is written, it will be a biological history and Margaret Sanger will be its heroine."

House Votes to Increase Tax Dollars for Nation’s Largest Abortion Provider, Planned Parenthood



Washington – Today the president of the Susan B. Anthony List commented on the defeat of an amendment sponsored by Representative Mike Pence (R-IN) to defund Planned Parenthood:

“Today Congress considered legislation to end federal taxpayer funding for the nation’s largest abortion provider, Planned Parenthood,’” said Susan B. Anthony List President Marjorie Dannenfelser. “Representative Mike Pence offered an amendment to respect the will of the majority of pro-life Americans, the citizens who do not want their hard-earned tax dollars supporting abortion providers. Our U.S. Government should promote real assistance for mothers that upholds the dignity of women and families, and doesn’t rely upon subsidizing abortions at every turn. I am disappointed by the House decision to reject the Pence amendment in favor of continuing President Obama’s radical abortion agenda. The Susan B. Anthony List will use every available tool to educate pro-life Americans across the country about the result of this vote. Americans will know whether or not their representative voted on the side of the pro-life taxpayer.”

The House of Representatives rejected the Pence Amendment to defund Planned Parenthood by a vote of 183 to 247. The Labor/Health and Human Services appropriations bill contains $317.5 million for the Title X Family Planning program (a $10 million or 3% increase over 2008 levels), which is a major source of funding for Planned Parenthood affiliates. Planned Parenthood is the recipient of approximately 23% of Title X Family Planning funds.

In 2008, Planned Parenthood provided nearly 290,000 abortions, accounting for approximately one in five abortions nationwide. The organization has recently come under fire for failing to report cases of statutory rape and for encouraging teen girls to lie to clinic workers in order to evade parental notification and consent laws.

Susan B. Anthony List activists have sent over 340,000 letters urging Congress to keep taxpayer funds from supporting abortion on-demand in 2009.

The Susan B. Anthony List is a nationwide network of Americans, over 158,000 residing in all 50 states, dedicated to mobilizing, advancing, and representing pro-life women in politics. Its connected Candidate Fund increases the percentage of pro-life women in the political process.

Hillary Clinton 'Honored' with Margaret Sanger Award





Planned Parenthood, America's baby killing enterprise funded with your tax dollars, recently awarded Hillary Clinton the Margaret Sanger Award. Ms. Sanger was the proud founder of Planned Parenthood and appears to have much in common with the new Administration. Mrs. Clinton stated in her acceptance speech that, "A society that denies and demeans women’s rights and roles is a society that is more likely to engage in behavior that is negative, anti-democratic and leads to violence and extremism." I would like to point out that tearing a fetus to shreds is both violent and extreme.

In other Planned Parenthood news, they have recently been found to cover up the rapes of underaged girls seeking their assistance as seen in this undercover video and many others:



"The most merciful thing that a large family does to one of its infant members is to kill it." --Margaret Sanger, Women and the New Race
(Eugenics Publ. Co., 1920, 1923)


I'd like to share some more quotes from Margaret Sanger thanks to the compilation of Diane S. Dew:

  • A woman's physical satisfaction was more important than any marriage vow, Sanger believed. Birth Control in America, p. 11
  • "The marriage bed is the most degenerating influence in the social order," Sanger said. (p. 23)
  • "This book aims to answer the needs expressed in thousands on thousands of letters to me in the solution of marriage problems... Knowledge of sex truths frankly and plainly presented cannot possibly injure healthy, normal, young minds. Concealment, suppression, futile attempts to veil the unveilable - these work injury, as they seldom succeed and only render those who indulge in them ridiculous. For myself, I have full confidence in the cleanliness, the open-mindedness, the promise of the younger generation." Margaret Sanger, (Bretano's, New York, 1927)
  • "More children from the fit, less from the unfit -- that is the chief aim of birth control." Birth Control Review, May 1919, p. 12
  • The purpose in promoting birth control was "to create a race of thoroughbreds," she wrote in the Birth Control Review, Nov. 1921 (p. 2)
For more on Ms. Sanger, see this article on the EWTN website.

Notre Dame 'honors' Mr. Obama with a J.D. and now Planned Parenthood 'honors' Mrs. Clinton.
So many honors to hand out to those who support killing off millions of children both in the U.S. and abroad. I'm not sure how they find the time in their busy schedules.
