Bachmann renews call to defund Planned Parenthood

I wish Minnesota’s “Trailer Park” ( the 6th CD) would ABORT Michele… It is really too bad that there are sooo many political RETARDS in our great State.. This is a Testament to our lack of funding to proper education.. We are also seeing how RADICAL Chip A$$crack is.. This mindless soulless ‘Rubber Stamp’ moron IS going to DEVASTATE the Iron Range.. We used to be the ‘North Star State’… Now we can just be happy and content to compete with Arkansas. Mississippi, Texas and Georgia ..

Let’s start by defunding all government support of faith-based initiatives, taxing political activity by religious organizations, and ending school vouchers for parochial and private schools.

Save the Wall of Separation, save the country.

Now aren’t you glad your mother was pro-life? Then again, maybe you’re not.

What else is this woman going to go after that does not meet her view of America!

I have held my tongue for far too long. I have to come out and say it….THIS WOMAN IS AN IDIOT!

Given Margaret Sanger’s views on black people, and her desire to eliminate them by aborting ther babies, government support of Planned Parenthood is akin to government support of the KKK.

Dennis, since many of the founding fathers were slave owners, being an American is akin to being in the KKK.

I’ll listen to a man speak about birth control when they invent pregnancies for men.

As for Bachmann—she’s the type of woman who is against abortions & birth control but God forbid we help children once they’re out of the womb.

PLanned Parenthood does more for women and men than any other Private Organization.

Screenings for STDs, for Breast and Cervical cancers, educational series regarding overall Sexual Health. Many see Planned Parenthood as their source for Health Care.

Yes! There are some PP locations that provide Abortion services in this country. Abortion is still LEGAL as I recall , despite States trying to restrict its access. One less pregnancy prevented is one less Abortion.

Michele Bachmann needs to her head out of hr ass and face reality that life is not all peaches and cream.

23 special needs foster kids, notwithstanding, eh, Kate?

You’ve taken in how many?

Dennis

Can you even imagine being a kid of Bachmann? Those poor things are going to need therapy for life.

Haha, Dennis, using dianedew.com as a source. Good one!

23 special needs foster kids, notwithstanding, eh, Dennis?

You’ve taken in how many?

@Dennis,
So if I follow your logic it would be okay to stand up for a woman’s right to make decisions about her body and have access to healthcare if I took in 23 + 1 foster children?

I’m pro-birth control so women don’t feel the need to resort to abortions. Bachmann’s call to defund PParenthood would only increase the amount of abortion because the majority of PP’s clients utilize their birth control services, not abortion services.

What I like is people like Bachmann call pro-choice persons “pro-death” and murderers and get all indignant if you imply they might be even a teensy bit responsible for massacres as in Tucson or Columbin because of their rigid support of guns for nuts and adamant opposition to gun regulation.

And Bachmann’s 23 foster kids? The same people who admire and praise her for that would call her a welfare queen if her skin were black.

Dennis: We hear about her foster children all the time, although I admit that it is the first time I have heard them called “Special Needs”. Keep in mind that those 23 foster children came with 23 monthly checks for the Bachmann Family, that were provided by the evil Government. I wonder how much of that money went to fund the Christian counseling service.

I came across the November 2, 2006 article at http://wonkette.com/211978/michele-bachmanns-baby-farm which says that “if Bachmann has fostered 23 children, let’s say for an average of five years, that would come out to a non-taxable $1,259,250″ given “Minnesota pays $30 a day, tax free, per foster kid.”

I wonder if she is able to recall the first names of at least half the kids off the top of her head …

I’ve never understood the concept of punishing the children for the sins of their parents, and detest any discussion of innocent children in the political context even as unfortunately in Bachmann’s situation, it is necessary given her hypocrisy decrying government spending while piggishly suckling on multiple government teats.

By the way, all foster children are special needs in that they need loving families in good homes until they’ve grown up.

This article touches on the need for stability in the lives of foster children with schools helping to provide that stability. This is where Bachmann’s experience with 23 foster children can be helpful. But other than that, meh.

And these comments of late have definitely gone far off the topic of this article!

Bachmann’s GOP: Let’s make sure lots of women can’t access healthcare, end up pregnant, because our wonderful free market system will never have to pay. Let’s cut Medicaid too, so they will have no aid. We are the ‘right’ party of no abortion, so that’ll be some real cost savings!

Planned Parenthood is often the only healthcare many women, especially young women get.
Birth control is really hormonal medicine and helps with many issues with having periods It helps reduce the pain, the moods, and the blood loss.
Planned Parenthood saves many lives. I thought these conservatives were pro life ?

It is might be the 1st time a woman receives a pap test and might be the 1st time she receives a breast exam.
It might be the 1st place someone gets help for being in a dangerous abusive relationship or reports that she was raped.
The Republicans want to take away women healthcare but what do the replace it with?
oh yeah….they think churches provide the healthcare.

As a teenage girl, this article is absolutely infuriating. I don’t want my ability to take care of my body impeded by idiots like Bachmann. I get birth control through PP, not because I’m having sex, but because my period is so out of control. And, when I do choose to have sex (Out of wedlock- religious people, don’t faint!) I want to take every precaution possible, and PP will help me do that. I don’t want to be the girl who’s pregnant in college, OR the girl who got an abortion- I want to be the girl who has taken the smart steps to stay sexually safe, and avoid both of those outcomes. The Republicans of the House (mainly men, who, if I recall, don’t need to worry about any of this) need to wake up and realize that the defunding of PP would cause a drastic increase in teenage pregnancies, and force more money to be spent on the children of young girls who can’t care for these children.
