Title: Floriduh Jumps on the Planned Parenthood Bandwagon! Post by: Howey on April 22, 2011, 02:42:44 pm Of course! If it's a stupid idea, filled with misconceptions, lies, and extreme right wing Christian fuckwad rhetoric, you gotta know the idiots in Tallahassee (http://politifact.com/florida/article/2011/apr/21/debate-over-planned-parenthood-funding-moves-flori/) want to jump in the fire!
Quote Planned Parenthood, a group that gets federal money to provide health services, has been a focal point of the Washington debate for several months. And now, the debate has filtered down to Tallahassee. Even though Planned Parenthood cannot use federal money to provide abortions, Republicans passed an amendment in the U.S. House in February that would block all federal funding to the group. Republicans contend that any support for Planned Parenthood can provide indirect support for abortions. The amendment, which did not have sufficient support to pass the Senate, was a key issue in the budget debate that nearly led to a government shutdown on April 8, 2011. It was not included in the budget agreement that prevented the shutdown. In Tallahassee, during an April 20 meeting of the Health and Human Services Committee, state Rep. Ronald Renuart, R-Ponte Vedra Beach, accused the not-for-profit group of operating a business plan that relies on abortions. He charged that 37 percent of the total income from Planned Parenthood is from abortions. We rated that False. An osteopathic physician, Renuart said: "In 2008, Planned Parenthood, they put out a report, and it showed that they did 305,000 abortions and the average cost was $450. Their total income for Planned Parenthood alone was $374 million, of that $137 million was actually for abortions. So that's almost 37 percent of the total income from Planned Parenthood is from abortions. And to me, it sounds like they don't want to lose business." The comments were made during discussion on Floriduh's own version of an Ultrasound bill... http://floridaindependent.com/27634/ronald-renuart-planned-parenthood-john-kyl Title: Re: Floriduh Jumps on the Planned Parenthood Bandwagon!

Post by: Howey on April 22, 2011, 08:19:49 pm Well Prick Santorum said 1 in 3 pregancies end in abortion and that is why we can not fund Social Security. Wait. Was that Santorum or Kyl? Was it intended to NOT be a factual statement? Kyl: Quote If you want an abortion you go to Planned Parenthood and that's well over 90 percent of what Planned Parenthood does. Oops! Quote His remark was not intended to be a factual statement, but rather to illustrate that Planned Parenthood, a organization that receives millions of dollars in taxpayer funding, does subsidize abortions. So if there's no big to-do, why go through all this? http://www.huffingtonpost.com/2011/04/21/jon-kyl-factual-statement-congressional-record_n_852257.html Quote I missed this when it was reported a couple days ago, but apparently, a few days after Senator Jon Kyl (R-Ariz.) stood on the Senate floor and misled America about what proportion of Planned Parenthood's activities were related to abortion -- which begat his famous "not intended to be a factual statement" excuse that brought a torrent of ridicule down upon him -- Kyl had his false statement stricken from the Congressional Record. You can do that? Apparently so! Senators enjoy a neat perk: the right to "revise" and "extend" their remarks.
