Planned Parenthood rejects $60 million federal Title X money after the Trump administration says grant recipients cannot refer women to abortion providers as a method of family planning. The grant money normally goes to fund birth control, screenings for sexually transmitted diseases, as well as breast and cervical cancer detection. How has President Trump — a man with shifting convictions on the life issue — achieved the first substantive shift in the pro-life direction in decades?

The way Scott frame this around the 415 mark is the way we should be framing it. PP doesn’t want to provide any services for poor women if they can’t push them to get an abortion.
I’m surprised PP wouldn’t take the money and find a loophole to get around such a lax rule. Demorats are experts at this! In any event, this is good news! This country has never been more divided than on the issue of abortion, which is good. Abortion is THE bellwether of a nation’s moral character. Two generations of Democrats have deemed “safe, legal and rare” as the de facto argument to justify exterminating over 50 million souls. The Declaration of Independence declared certain “truths to be self-evident, that all men are created equal, that they are endowed by their Creator with certain unalienable Rights, that among these are LIFE, Liberty and the pursuit of Happiness.” Democrats, forever splitting hairs like a lawyer, have perverted the meaning of “life”. Now, our taxes are being used to give other people’s money to whoever reflects the will of John Q Public (i.e. PP).
So why don’t conservatives put their mouth where their money is? Because conservatives are, by and large, Christians and that’s not how God works. Look at who Jesus chose for his inner circle; a fisherman, a tax collector and assorted other non-lawyer types. So, Bill can answer his own question by comparing how well his business is doing compared to a liberal site that supports abortion.
Frankly, I’m surprised Trump has been able to oppose the will of that degenerate reprobate, John Q Public.
Ah, a new Whittleism is born!
I love quoting Bill’s line about how “Democrats would rather rule over ruins than give someone else credit for prosperity.” I like how this new line breaks it down even more simply, “Democrats would rather vote for something bad that makes them feel good than vote for something good that makes them feel bad.”
Brilliant!
The PC crowd is always attacking for racism and slavery etc. What they fail to realize is that years from now those who support abortion will be looked upon worse than slave owners. The tide is turning.
I prefer the term living human being instead of person. Reason: corporations can be persons legally and slaves were property. Both slaves and not yet born humans should have all the appropriate rights. A fetus is not a legal term. Thus, the law could say a fetus is not a person, even though a living human. If living human is defined as a person at all times, fine. And by definition an abortion is killing a fetus; a living human. It’s not like cutting off your own hand. It’s terminating a human life. In this case “the freedom to swing your arm ends where my face begins” applies, since the human life terminated is not yours.
There are only two kinds of persons: natural and artificial. When life on earth first started, it was self-evident that only natural persons existed. Then the Romans invented artificial persons. Now, liberal leftists invented non-existent persons called fetus. John Q Public has become mentally ill with all sorts of machinations to debase life.
