I'm not necessarily down on everything Planned Parenthood does ... or even them getting MedicAid funds for some of the services they provide.
But ..... the thing that really annoys/hacks me about Planned Parenthood is how they seem to think and act as thought they are
entitled to taxpayer funds ... like they are an actual government agency or something. And without question.
It's this
attitude PP & liberals have about it that's reason enough in and of itself to cut off their funding if you ask me. Even if just for a little while. Just to show 'em ... you're not necessarily
entitled to that money. You're not
special. You're just another health care provider receiving government reimbursement for services provided like thousands of other health care providers ... and as subject to question/scrutiny as any other.
Were I the CEO of Planned Parenthood, I would have long ago split the abortion counseling/services function off into a separate agency with a separate budget and a different name from the other health-services PP provides and asked the Pro-Choice crowd to fund it .... since those services are ineligible for government funding anyway .... and avoided all this controversy over government funding. But I guess that wouldn't serve
some people's political agenda?
Dang it! Now I'm off the rez again. Hands up, don't shoot!
