PLANNED PARENTHOOD'S "ABORTIONS ARE JUST 3%" CLAIM IS FALSE

When you render 11,003,366 services in a year, and 329,445 of them are abortions, that’s nothing to be proud of. That’s equal to 329,445 murders, and it’s terrible. It should never be funded by the government or allowed by the public.

Here’s how the numbers actually crunch down. According to Planned Parenthood’s 2010 Affiliate Medical Services Summary (the most recent on record), they claim that 33.5% of their services are contraceptives. But 39.7% of those contraceptives are actually “Emergency Contraception Kits”. We are fully aware, thanks to public debate, that the entire purpose of Emergency Contraceptives…like the Morning After Pill…is to kill any unborn child that may be present. It’s just abortion by another name. And it’s just as wrong. Granted, a pregnancy test will not reveal if a woman is pregnant that early on, but the whole purpose of Emergency Contraceptives is to kill the baby if the woman is pregnant. That’s the whole and only purpose.

Only $223,800,000 of Planned Parenthood’s 1.0482 billion dollars actually comes from donations. That’s roughly 20 percent total. While I’m sure any organization would love to receive over 200 million dollars from their donors, it’s not evidence of a “powerful” grassroots base when it’s less than 1/5 of the actual budget. In addition, Planned Parenthood themselves admits that a significant portion of this donor money comes from corporations and extremely liberal foundations.
