Planned Parenthood's Agenda

What exactly is it? I think it's more than many people realize. Dawn Eden has a very enlightening and disturbing post about that agenda. May I be so indelicate as to point out that encouraging irresponsible behavior among teens would be very good for business for an "abortion provider" such as Planned Parenthood?

(Link via Kevin McGehee.)

While on the general subject, Andrea Harris has a practical solution* to unwanted pregnancies. Also, Bill from INDC Journal (found via Dean's World) has a photo essay about attending a pro-choiceabortion rally for John Kerry. He promises more coverage later.

*Just a warning, very...blunt language is used.

Update: Reading this account of the pro-abortion march at After Abortion has left me appalled and angry. (Via Open Book.) Also, both Michael Williams and Ben Domenech note the graying of the pro-abortion movement.

One more thing, I refuse to call this march a "pro-choice" march as I did earlier. That was a mistake. It was a pro-abortion march. Yes, I realize there are people who are genuinely pro-choice and who are not necessarily pro-abortion. While I disagree with them, I respect them far too much to lump them in with the likes of Planned Parenthood and the jerks at this march.

Update 2: Even more to appall and disgust you...get a load of these pictures from the march at Bunnie Diehl's blog -- just start at the top and scroll down. (Via the Thinklings.)

Er, maybe you should warn everyone that my expression of said practical solution is not exactly work-safe. ;)

Having read Dawn Eden's post... as to the eugenics-origin of Planned Parenthood, I find it interesting that they seem to have practically dropped the whole giving birth to at least some babies thing to a "Babies! Ugh -- I mean, uh, sure, if you really want to put such a damper on your sex life" attitude.

Andrea,

**blush** You're right...that's what I get for trying to sneak in quick posts at work! ;-)

As for PP's eugenics past, it looks like they've outgrown those ignoble goals...now they're all about making money.

Rutgers University publishes a paper handout newsletter for teens that seems to have the same agenda -it is given out at various teen clinics (such as high school based clinics)
Oh, and abstinence is mentioned but only because federal law requires it - and it is brushed off as being 'ineffective' (meaning no one is going to forgo sex). makes me sick.
I take care of the pregnant ones that don't have abortions - and most of them were not really interested in having sex - they just thought they 'had to' to be normal.

Alicia,

I just want to say that I'm glad there are people like you who truly care about these girls and give them real help. :-)

I think it's so sad that these girls become sexually active so that they won't be judged as some sort of "freak". Things are so messed up... **shaking head**
