Planned Parenthood is a joke. They pose as people who care about you and your well-being, but really just love to brush the dirt under the rug.

@dawnthi THAT day may come sooner than you realize.

Health care. Specifically reproductive health care and education, although they do more than that.

what is the main job of pp?

[TruthSeeker24]

PP hasn't even radically reduced abortion in America at all. So much for common ground.

I'll bet all the negative comments regarding PP here are from people who have never gone to Planned Parenthood. Ignorance can be excused, but stupidity cannot. PP saves lives and spreads truth to those who otherwise hear half-truths. I have benefitted from PP and appreciate their approach.

Here's info from Wikipedia: In 1930, Sanger opened a family planning clinic in Harlem that sought to enlist support for contraceptive use and to bring the benefits of family planning to women who were denied access to their city's health and social services. Staffed by a black physician and black social worker, the clinic was endorsed by the Abyssinian Baptist Church, the Urban League, and the black community's elder statesman, W.E.B. DuBois.[31]

Margaret Sanger believed that parents should not be allowed to give birth to a child without permission. So, thank Hillary when you have to go to court and beg to be allowed to have your child.

Hillary is an amazing, empowering woman and I proudly say I voted for her the primary election of 2008!
