kat, you must of missed the check list I got this year for my taxes, I get to pick where I want my tax dollars to go. I checked no war spending, I no longer have kids in schools so heck no I won't be supporting that. I did check off road maintenance as I do drive. I reluctantly checked off supporting lazy welfare folks as I know some of them are children and I think all kids should be able to eat junk food bought from their food stamps.
Huh! I haven't done my taxes or looked at the forms yet. Woo-hoo!
The assault continues against anything anti-liberal.

The total government grants and contracts received by PPFA affiliates from government sources including state, local and federal governments, increased from $337 million to $350 million in 2009.

Government grants accounted for 33% of Planned Parenthood’s income compared with just 28 percent for private donations. Income from its abortion centers generated another 37 percent.
The latest annual report covers the period from July 1, 2009 to June 30, 2010, the PPFA’s fiscal year. The report states that the organization received “government health services grants and reimbursements” totaling $487.4 million.

If they just did cancer screenings - there would be no issue. I love the way you throw that in to make them seem "moral" for their existence.
