[Today’s guest post by Chris Rostenberg is part of our paid blogging program.] If someone with the AIDS virus was about to have sex with you, should they have to tell you about their HIV-positive status first? Planned Parenthood doesn’t think so. In a brochure entitled Happy, Healthy, and Hot, which Planned Parenthood describes as […]
In this link is the abortion story of a woman named Molly. You should know before you read it that there are some graphic descriptions and there’s some language. But you should read it. It’s very interesting. I thought the most interesting quote was here: What about for the in-between? The post-abortive women who need […]
[Today’s guest post by Sarah Terzo of ClinicQuotes.com is part of our paid blogging program.] During my research on Planned Parenthood I stumbled across a quote from a Planned Parenthood clinic director that I’d like to share. It is from an old article (Sandra G. Boodman, “The Dearth of Abortion Doctors; Stigma, Low Pay and […]
I hate to say I told you so. That’s usually an empty phrase. Let’s face it: most people love to say “I told you so.” But in this case, I really do hate it—because I successfully predicted that something pretty awful would happen. Back in February of 2012, the Susan G. Komen controversy was at its […]
In the past week or so, I’ve been exposed to this facebook advertisement constantly: You might think: “Hooray! Planned Parenthood is finally focusing on breast health instead of just being an abortion business!” Not so fast. I visited the website, and was dismayed (but not at all surprised) to discover that this is a public […]
Last week, Planned Parenthood of the Heartland filed a lawsuit against a recent regulation issued by the Iowa Board of Medicine.

A webcam abortion (sometimes called telemed abortion) is exactly what it sounds like: a doctor who never examines the patient in person […]
The abortion lobby is has found its latest poster child: a Salvadoran woman, known only as Beatriz, who allegedly needed an abortion to save her life. The reality, as usual, is more complicated. El Salvador protects unborn life, and recognizes the lives of mothers as well. Balancing these concerns, El Salvador has legal abortion in […]
E. W. Jackson Democratic activists are going nuts over statements by E. W. Jackson, the Republican candidate for lieutenant governor of Virginia. The quote all the news pieces are highlighting: “Planned Parenthood has been far more lethal to black lives than the KKK ever was.” Reporters are treating this as an unimaginable gaffe. Their theme […]
[Today’s post by guest blogger Nathaniel is reprinted with permission from his blog, Difficult Run.] Yesterday I wrote the first in a series of 3 posts discussing why the mainstream media has been reluctant to cover the Kermit Gosnell case. Rather than suggest that there’s some kind of conspiracy or willful deception, my belief is […]
[Today’s post is re-posted from “Yeah, but…“] Planned Parenthood is moving away from the term “pro-choice” in response polls showing dissatisfaction with abortion debate labels. “I’m neither pro-choice nor pro-life,” said one woman in a focus group commissioned by Planned Parenthood. “I’m pro-whatever-the-situation is.” Said another, “there should be three: pro-life, pro-choice and something in the […]
