By the way, you all are carrying on an argument where there is none. This is about PP and our money being used to fund it. It's not about making abortion illegal, since the law governs that.
Cancer screening and contraceptions are immoral? That has to be the weirdest set of morals I have heard anyone having.

Your tax dollars aren't funding abortions.....not sure why this is so hard for some right wingers go grasp.....

You must have a limited reading list. I wasn't quoting myself. I was quoting from a higher authority. Lift your sights a bit.

You misread or assumed something that isn't there. Or maybe it just went over your head?

A misreading or assumption again? Do read it again and tell me where I said anything about cancer screenings or contraception.

Some people seem to have difficulty understanding what they are reading.

You said you wanted to defund Planned Parenthood, and that is where federal funding goes to, cancer screenings and contraceptions. So why are you against that or are you unaware that is what federal funding goes to?

You look at both as "sub-human".
Please expand on this link you claim exists between slavery and women's health.

You are confused. I would never defend PP. You're thinking of some other poster.

The majority of what PP does is education and contraceptives.

We have enough unwanted babies in the world, eliminating PP would only add to the problem.

No, it's not about PP, the ultimate goal is to criminalize abortion. As far as funding planned parenthood- no government money is used to pay for abortions - that's a fact look it up yourself if you didn't know that.

Let me guess..God personally landed in your living room and told you that having sex if you aren't married is immoral

You are referring to this remark?No nothing went over my head I think I responded appropriately to a very 'odd' statement.

Direct attacks come in lots of different forms, but they are what they are, and I would prefer if you stuck to arguing issues.

I find it naive to believe that taxpayer money isn't paying for abortion. When they receive taxpayer money, it all adds to their total revenue. This allows them much more flexibility in how they spend their money. They can devote more resources to abortion services when they can depend on taxpayer dollars coming in. What is so difficult to understand about this? They can say they don't spend taxpayer money for abortion. But that money still helps in that area. In other words, they can shift money from other activities if they are making it up from federal funds.

I see no reason why we have to support PP with tax dollars. They don't need it.

Here, maybe this explains it: Fact Check: How Does Planned Parenthood Spend That Government Money? : It's All Politics : NPR
