I'm still trying to understand why Planned Parenthood must receive federal funding. There seems to be plenty of people who support it. Why not raise the funds from donors? Why must taxpayers support charities via federal funding? As a charity, they already get tax benefits - that seems to be enough. I know this is just the most high profile charity to receive federal funding but it just doesn't make a lick of sense for taxpayer dollars to fund these organizations. Charity generally means the voluntary giving of help. What is voluntary about using taxpayer dollars?
Yes, we know, liberals know all of their rights and none of their responsibilities. That's why, as I noted earlier, even if they receive welfare, they'll without batting an eyelash lecture you on how nobody has to right to tell them what they can buy with that money. And they can do that without even being slightly embarrassed.
you paint a broad brush which suggest all liberals are on the public assistance.
seriously why do you care? besides the fun of being judgmental if someone blows threw their benefits?
it is none of your business if a family on food stamps buys a birthday cake and ice cream to celebrate. it's none of your business if the family eats crap for weeks at a time, so they can afford the roast one time.
are you that cheap or is it compassion you lacking....ahhh maybe never walked a mile in their shoes.
you don't support PP or abortions, deal with the consequences.
are you ok with women self aborting at home and dying? abortions happen, always will happen legal or not. it's only safe abortions that stop. are you ok with forced birthing?
All politicians spend other people's money. Not just liberals. Have you seen the Dept. of Defense Budget ?
It's actually sort of amusing when liberals are like "isn't abortion like ...uh ...defense spending? I mean, you want one and I want one ..."

Liberals are either on it or supporters of it. I didn't say they were all on it.

Usually, when you write "seriously," you need to follow it with a serious question.

See, first you claimed I was painting with a broad brush and then three sentences later, you prove me right.

Translation: let me spend your money to prove I care.

Oddly, the only person who you say has to deal with the consequences is me, not the actual person who I'm paying for. That's odd.

Every time liberals say this, I always have to ask why they're so inept at life. Like, you think this is an effective argument to say "if I have to, I'm going to jam a rusty coathanger into my genitals in a dirty rat-infested alley! OK??" Uh, OK. I bet most people would figure out that they don't want to do that, but not you. At least you have moxie.

the question was serious, why is it your business or concern that women have abortions? you don't want to answer. are you ok with women giving birth against their own personal desires? you didn't answer.
you so removed from the reality that you don't care women will self abort, like they did before roe v wade?
you ok with women throwing themselves down stairs or having someone hit them in the belly so they abort?
"that you are paying for" as asked and unanswered just how much tax dollars come out of your pocket? it's a pittance compared to yes...the defense budget or for that matter corporate welfare.
PP does a vital service for men and women. don't like abortion, don't have one. leave the rest of alone to make our own choice.

LOL, I like how every liberal argument breaks down and the liberals are like "uh ...whu ...uh ...well, how does it affect you??" I keep saying this in every thread because it's always proven true. Gay marriage? How does it affect you? Welfare? How does it affect you? Abortion? How does it affect you? Sort of strange how nothing liberals want affects anyone, huh? Or, more precisely, how they can't figure it out. LOL

Once again Planned Parenthood is not the only clinic that receives federal funding, this was a bipartisan agreement that has been in place for over 40 years to fund these facilities and help low income people.
