Planned Parenthood: How advocacy writers open your wallet with a deceptive key
The Washington Times ^ | February 5, 2012 | Peter Bella

The Senators, Ms. Pelosi, and media onslaught against the non-profit group, Susan G. Komen for the Cure, was not just some spontaneous flash mob of bullies and donors.

Planned Parenthood was notified of Komen group’s decision to defund them in December.

That left two months for professional advocates and their copywriters to design and coordinate a media, Internet, and social media onslaught, a public relations free-for-all where Planned Parenthood, the Senators, Ms. Pelosi and others could make any accusations they want.

Great piece about how poor little Planned Parenthood knew for months of Komen's decision to defund them. Their efforts have resulted in millions of dollars in donations this past week alone. They not only got the amount of the Komen grant many times over, they got the Komen money back. It is sick how they use "women's health" to line their pockets.

Disgusting. Anything Pelosi is involved with is underhanded and sneaky.

It seems that everything the left does is very well planned and calculated. Notice, also, how the hand of the Democrat party is behind everything that is vile and anti-American values. We have gotten a look at the way they operate when it was discovered that the Democrats fund Planned Parenthood with OUR money and then PP gives them a nice little kickback of some of that taxpayers money. Now that we know how the scheme works, we can be sure that they are using this with all of their leftists groups. This is nothing more than money laundering with our tax dollars.

What is also interesting is that the cogs in this Leftist machine perform dutifully in carrying off the scam. I believe that most of the pro-Planned Parenthood social media posts I was subjected to this past week from friends and family were sincere in their calls to “restore breast cancer funding” and “it’s not pro-life to oppose cancer screening”, etc. Apparently they accept without question the premise that abortion provider Planned Parenthood is the only place for poor women to turn to have their risk factors for breast cancer first increased by oral contraceptives and abortion and then detected by referral to another unrelated organization for a mammogram.

They are also quick to exploit all of the millions of people who have been affected by breast cancer. Planned parenthood now has a large number of people who may not be for abortion but feel that they must keep supporting Susan G. Komen so that women can be saved from breast cancer.

Right, that’s how PP gained so much traction against Komen—by characterizing anyone who opposes PP as not caring about cancer. I stayed away from this issue on FB for a long time because I have a leftist cousin who is a cancer victim. Of course as soon as I did say something against Planned Parenthood, she was the first one to start arguing with me about how great PP is. It’s sad that they use cancer victims in this way.

I can remember back before Roe v. Wade made abortion legal, I never heard anyone defending abortion. I think I heard it talked about maybe once but no over said that it should be legal, was a woman’s right etc. All of this change of attitude came about because of the incessant propanda of Planned Parenthood. Goebels was right, tell a big lie and keep telling it and people will believe that it is true.
