Planned Parenthood is responsible for about 30% of US abortions annually.
Those numbers are escalating at a time concomitant national rates are declining.
Planned Parenthood receives nearly 50% percent of its revenues via taxpayer-funded government sources.
Last year, excess revenues approached $90 million with net assets exceeding $1.2 billion.
Still waiting for someone to show me how number 1 is caused by number 2.
Fact is, not a single one of you can show me proof, (not emotion, proof) that a single federal dollar went to a single abortion.
Does planned parent hood provide abortions. You bet your arse it does and I am happy that women have a place to go to get abortions should they choose that.
But planned parenthoods provide a hell of a lot more then just abortions.
It's fun to watch social conservatives get their dicks all tied up in this.

C'mon, Rob, don't be so obtuse.
It doesn't matter if it's PP or any other business. Federal money adds to the bottom line, regardless of how it's earmarked.
Let's say PP has an annual budget of $10 million. With that $10 million, PP can only do so much, with, say, 5% going to abortions.
Along comes Mr. FedGov with an extra $5 million, but it's earmarked for services OTHER than abortions.
That just freed up $5 million of its own money for PP to use for whatever it wants, including abortion services.
Extra money is extra money, regardless of where it comes from.
