I don’t want Planned Parenthood to be an issue this election season.  I believe, as does Romney, that there should be no taxpayer funds used for Planned Parenthood.  Planned Parenthood should use contributions from like-minded individuals to fund whatever they want.

Now comes a sting video operation where a woman wants an abortion if an ultrasound shows she is having a girl.  The woman was advised to go get an ultrasound past the first trimester to determine the sex of the baby and then come back for an abortion.  The PP counselor tells the woman to go get an ultrasound and advises her how to do it on Medicaid.

So now we know that Planned Parenthood does not have ultrasound machines.  So if you are poor and a woman and have planned to have a baby, Planned Parenthood will not be able to do an ultrasound.  So now, they don’t do prenatal testing of any kind.  They don’t do mammograms, so they really aren’t doing but one kind of cancer screening, a pap smear.  They do pap smears, prescribe contraceptives, and abortions.  So, if you are planning on parenthood, Planned Parenthood can’t really help you.
