Your daily dose of radical feminist scare tactics

In response to the Virgina Senate cutting state funding to Planned Parenthood (bold in original):

"The irony is, Planned Parenthood probably prevents more abortions than any other organization in the country," [an opposed Senator] said. But of course, anti-choicers aren't concerned about preventing abortion - if they were, they'd be touting birth control - their real concern is limiting women's choices and rolling back our rights. - Feministing

Meanwhile, the enlightened sensitivas at Feministe try to work out the logic of early human life (warning: offensive images and content). Not surprisingly, they fail miserably.

I've said it often: if you were ever tempted to hold a different position on these issues, just spend an afternoon reading where it leads and you'll never be tempted again. Simply incredible.

But also, very sad.

update: Jessica at Feministing provides more grist, this time in reaction to the news that Planned Parenthood in Idaho willing takes money from racists to abort African American babies:

"What so awful about this .... is that this plays directly into anti-choice talking points about abortion and race. "

Or, just maybe, the "talking points" actually reveal a reality that PP tries to hide whenever it can.

Planned Parenthood's response? "We're an equal-opportunity, non-discriminatory purveyor of death."

Okay, that phrase was mine.
