Opinions/Editorials Title: Planned Parenthood: Evil, Baby Murdering Business Must Be Defunded! Heroism is usefully defined as an act of selflessness — sacrificing oneself for the life of another. Medal of Honor recipients perform acts of true heroism, often giving their life to save their brothers in arms. But what is the opposite of heroism? What would you call an organization and its leader who brag about killing the most innocent among us and killing in a barbaric, painful manner for selfish reasons? Planned Parenthood and its leader, Cecile Richards, are responsible for the murder of hundreds of thousands of babies annually and brag about just that. Found within the Planned Parenthood Annual Report, a quote by President Cecile Richards: We are here today to thank generations of organizers, troublemakers, and hell-raisers who formed secret sisterhoods, who opened Planned Parenthood health centers in their communities, and demanded the right to control their own bodies. Cecile Richards Women’s March 2017 Breathtaking! Ms. Richards is proud of generations of “organizers, troublemakers, and hell-raisers who formed secret sisterhoods, who opened Planned Parenthood health centers in their communities, and demanded the right to control their own bodies.” Of course women should have the right to protect and control their own body. But should not the innocent child in the womb have the same right to life written in our Declaration of Independence and admonished in the Bible? We hold these truths to be self-evident, that all men are created equal, that they are endowed by their Creator with certain unalienable Rights, that among these are Life, Liberty and the pursuit of Happiness. (Declaration of Independence) This day I call the heavens and the earth as witnesses against you that I have set before you life and death, blessings and curses. Now choose life, so that you and your children may live. (Deuteronomy 30) Before I formed you in the womb I knew you. (Jeremiah 1:5a) I will praise You, for I am fearfully and wonderfully made. (Psalm 139:14a) Scripture is abundantly clear we face a battle between death and life. Jesus said: “…I am the way, the truth, and the life. No one comes to the Father except through Me.” (John 14:6) We’re told to choose life. But Cecile Richards boasts about her abortions and her agency that chooses death for millions of babies — over seven million, six hundred thousand unborn children murdered since Roe v. Wade. Richards wrote in a 2014 Elle column: I had an abortion. It was the right decision for me and my husband, and it wasn’t a difficult decision. Before becoming president of Planned Parenthood eight years ago, I hadn’t really talked about it beyond family and close friends. But I’m here to say, when politicians argue and shout about abortion, they’re talking about me—and millions of other women around the country. And in an Katie Couric interview Cecile expands: It was a decision my husband and I made. It was a personal decision. And we have three children that we adore and that are the center of my life. And we decided that was as big as our family needed to be. It wasn’t anything more dramatic than that. Let those words sink in. “It was a decision my husband and I made.” “And we have three children that we adore and that are the center of my life.” “And we decided that was as big as our family needed to be. It wasn’t anything more dramatic than that. ” It was just a decision. Like whether to have cable or dish network, whether to have beef or chicken for dinner. No big deal. And think about Richards comment “we have three children that we adore and that are the center of my life.” How must those children feel? They are only adored because they happened to be number one, two or three. Had they been number four or more, they would have been killed. That’s a pretty calloused and capricious selection process. Further, Cecile and her husband, Kirk Adams (who was then vice president of the Service Employees International Union, is now executive director of the Healthcare Education Project in New York), made that choice — a married, power couple. There was no hardship and no threat to Cecile’s life. Just the virulently selfish decision to use abortion as birth control. By any other name that would be called wickedness. Looking on page 31 of the Annual Report, we see the total abortions performed by Planned Parenthood in 2017: That’s 321,384 babies whose lives were ended at Planned Parenthood abortion mills in 2017. And consider that taxpayers contribute $500 million per annum to that vile organization. Richards will proclaim that the Federal monies do not go toward abortions, but that’s a purely nonsensical argument. The money is fungible and may be used for certain segments and other funding moved to the abortion services segment. The notion that taxpayer money does not fund their abortion services is a ruse. We should review the inception of Planned Parenthood to understand the true nature of this organization. Most worthy entities have great beginnings, such as the Ivy League Schools which were founded as seminaries. Over the decades, the original intent has degraded and the universities transformed into centers of Progressive propaganda, in direct opposition to a Judeo-Christian worldview. Unlike the Ivies, Planned Parenthood was founded by an evil eugenicist, Margaret Sanger. As I wrote in 2014: The real Margaret Sanger espoused sinister motives for advancing birth control and abortion: she fully endorsed eugenics for the betterment of race and society. Sanger was a Darwinist who embraced a utilitarian view of human life, and proposed to rid our nation of the criminal element and “inferior races” through abortion and breeding programs. And as noted in the 2016 article, “Planned Parenthood, An Unnecessary Evil“: The original intent of Planned Parenthood has been veiled with a facade of honorable work, but the truth is despicable to the core. Planned Parenthood’s predecessor, The American Birth Control League, was founded by Nazi-inspiration Margaret Sanger, the godmother of modern eugenics, in 1921. So, this behemoth baby-killing business had a nefarious founding and mission, and an anti-biblical, anti-Christ goal of convincing teenaged and older females to choose death rather than life. And notice, the “other services” touted so frequently by abortion-lover Richards have been dwindling as the main cash crop — killing the unborn and then selling baby body parts — has increased. As written at the Daily Wire: Feminists love to throw out the “but Planned Parenthood provides other valuable services” line when discussing the organization’s lucrative war against the unborn in the practice of abortion. It turns out, according to the organization’s 2016-17 Annual Report, those “other services” have been steadily dropping since 2008 while their abortions remain stable, making it PP’s most reliable revenue stream — other than the hundreds of millions of taxpayer dollars it receives from the government, of course. As noted by LifeNews, Planned Parenthood’s revenue has increased since 2009, from $1.1 billion to roughly $1.4 billion in 2017. That Planned Parenthood’s overall services have decreased rather increased makes this all the more puzzling. LifeNews provides a summary of the report’s findings: In 2008, PPFA affiliates were seeing 3 million patients a year. Today, they see only 2.4 million—a huge drop of 20%. PPFA’s highly publicized ‘cancer screenings’ fell by almost 2/3rds–from 1,830,811 in 2009 to just 660,777 in 2016. What about contraception services? They dropped from 3,868,901 in 2009 to 2,701,866 in 2016—a 30% tumble. How about their much vaunted (but barely existent) prenatal services? From 40,489 in 2009 to just 7,762 in 2016—a decline of more than 3/4s. Bottom line: Planned Parenthood is a vile organization that should be defunded and its president, Cecile Richards, should be out of a job. A business which profits from the wholesale killing of babies and the (illegal) selling of baby body parts should be shuttered and never receive another penny of taxpayer money. Be heroic and join the battle to finally defund Planned Parenthood! Join us and choose life and blessing for our nation and the unborn! Send an email or fax to your U.S. lawmakers in the U.S. Senate and U.S. House of Representatives, urging them to defund Planned Parenthood. Let them know that you strongly believe that businesses which profits from the wholesale killing of babies and the (illegal) selling of baby body parts should be shuttered and never receive another penny of taxpayer money. Poster Comment: The Democrat-Communist Party stands for the murder of innocent babies. It's all part of the scheme to found a New World Order; a world in which we wouldn't want to live.

I think this is a bit of a useless hit piece on Richards personally. It's irrelevant to me and a distraction for serious pro-lifers. I almost posted this a few days ago as a thread here at LF but I'll post part of it here now. DailyWire: Nebraska Gov To Cut Taxpayer Funds To Planned Parenthood, 1/10/18 If time should be running out for anyone in this country, it's the leaders of abortion conglomerate Planned Parenthood. Nebraska Gov. Pete Rickets is helping to facilitate that time shortage by cutting off taxpayer funds to the organization in his state. According to LifeNews, Gov. Rickets' "budget proposal would revise the way Title X funds are distributed and disqualify groups that provide abortions." Announcing his budget plan, Ricketts proudly heralded Nebraska a pro-life state that will commit to protecting the unborn. “Nebraska is a pro-life state, and the state’s budget should reflect those values,” Ricketts said. “This year, I am recommending that the legislature revise the state’s distribution of federal Title X healthcare funds to ensure that no funds are used to subsidize abortion. Thanks to action by Congress, Nebraska can now take new steps to protect unborn life by ensuring that these dollars are not used to fund abortion.” The move comes thanks in part to President Trump, who signed into law an initiative allowing for states to defund Planned Parenthood. Conversely, Trump's predecessor, President Obama, ruled that states must fund Planned Parenthood and other abortion groups; Hillary would have done the same. Feminists who decry that women will be denied medical attention at a low-cost are just blowing smoke. As is true of every other state who defunds Planned Parenthood, the tax dollars will go to "county health departments, community health centers and other types of providers," according to LifeNews. Prior to the change, Planned Parenthood and other abortion clinics collected 50% of the state's Title X funds. In 2015, a Nebraska newspaper reported that the state's Planned Parenthood clinics pocket a grand total of $90,000 in taxpayer dollars, roughly 11 to 18% of the organization's total funds in the state. . . . There is plenty that pro-life states around the country can do to put the boots to these PP abortion mills. Stop letting alleged pro-life legistors get away with making excuses instead of cutting off as much funding to PP as possible and redirect that money to legit healthcare outlets. Get 'er done.

Richards is president of Baby Killers, Inc. As such a hit piece is appropriate.
