Obama Will be First Sitting President to Address Planned Parenthood
Life News ^ | Steven Ertelt

Posted on 04/25/2013 4:37:30 PM PDT by Morgana

President Barack Obama, tomorrow, will become the first sitting president to address the Planned Parenthood abortion business. Obama originally planned to talk to the abortion giant tonight at its gala but pushed back the speech to Friday after massive criticism and suggestions he was ignoring victims of the Waco explosion.

Tomorrow, he will speak to 1,000 supporters of Planned Parenthood Federation of America. The big question is whether he will address the murder trial of abortion practitioner Kermit Gosnell.

Obama has thus far refused to comment on the trial — despite the fact that he has commented on other trials in progress previously. His refusal has been noted but pro-life advocates and in the halls of Congress.

“Mr. President, your silence on this issue is deafening,” said Rep. Scott Perry (R-Pa.) in a speech on the House floor today.

Marjorie Dannenfeiser, president of the anti-abortion group Susan B. Anthony List, commented on Obama’s forthcoming speech.

“There is no industry that President Obama is more willing to protect than the abortion industry and particularly Planned Parenthood, the nation’s biggest abortion provider, which in a single year performed more than 333,000 abortions,” she said in a statement. “The president has defended federal funding for Planned Parenthood to the point of being willing to shut down the government over the continuing resolution battle, and in return they spent a record amount to reelect him in November.”

“Planned Parenthood last week admitted to knowing about the horrors going on inside Kermit Gosnell’s squalid Philadelphia clinic, but chose not to exercise its position as the leader in the abortion industry to put an end to the butchering of women and children,” she said in a release, suggesting the trial and the public scrutiny now being given to what Gosnell had been doing made it “a good time to distance oneself from Planned Parenthood.”

She said it is “a good time for President Obama to reconsider his position of forcing taxpayers to fork over more than $542 million each year to this abortion-centered, profit-driven business” which, she added, “in a single year ended the lives of more than 333,000 children.”

Lila Rose, the head of the pro-life group Live Action, which has exposed Planned Parenthood arranging abortions for victims of sex-trafficking and misleading women about the risks and dangers associated with abortions, called for the speech’s cancellation. She released the following statement to LifeNews:

“In the wake of the gruesome and horrific revelations emanating from the trial of abortion Doctor Kermit Gosnell, we urge President Obama to cancel his fundraising speech for big abortion giant Planned Parenthood on Thursday night.

“Planned Parenthood is the nation’s number-one abortion provider, having received in 2011 (the latest year with available data) a record $542 million in tax dollars under the policies of the Obama administration. Over the past few weeks, we have heard the brutal details of the slaughter of innocent human beings that goes on within the walls of many abortion clinics, including Gosnell’s ‘House of Horrors’ in Philadelphia and the ‘meat-market’ ‘assembly-line’ Planned Parenthood of Delaware.

But the nation’s biggest abortion business heaped praise on President Barack Obama calling him the most pro-abortion president ever.

For $300,000,000 in taxpayer funds, they might as well ask for the clown to entertain them as well.

Is there anything else that this maggot can do to disgrace the country? If we survive the next 3 1/2 years we may have a chance.
Someone has to step up and oust this vermin from our midst.
PRAY FOR AMERICA!!!!!!

Don’t worry . . . his handlers will come up with a sanitized speech for the sockpuppet and download it on the teleprompter so the idiot won’t forget it. They’ll probably put “women’s right” in his speech about 50 times and the words “I” and “me” 80 times.

I will bet there is no shortage of Federal protection and money at the murdering abortion factories and conventions Planned Murder as there was in Lybia and Boston (both of whom had had intelligence that attacks were in the offing).
