I've heard similar stories over the years, but most people I talk to have no idea of how their tax dollars are being misused for such an evil purpose as this.

Quote:
According to figures released by Planned Parenthood, the group raked in over $1 billion in profits and received over $300 million in taxpayer funding last year – a significant proportion of which is used to help elect pro-choice candidates into office.

"Planned Parenthood is using your tax dollars to raise more money to run against your candidate, to elect someone who will give them more tax dollars,” explained Ohio Rep. Jim Jordan in a statement on the need to defund the organization.

Before the law was passed that banned the use of tax dollars to fund actual abortions, my father stopped paying all federal income taxes for a period of 16 years. After the law was passed banning the used of tax dollars to fund actual abortions, he contacted the IRS (through a priest friend), and told them that he had not been paying his taxes, and why. With six months of negotiations, a settlement was finally reached between the government and my father. - Millet

God bless your father, Bob!

When was that? Federal funds do go to Planned Parenthood today. Some of our so-called humanitarian aid which goes overseas has also funded abortions there, though Bush has stopped most of that (for now).

Harvey, I'm not sure of the exact dates, as it was been a long time back. but it must have been sometime between 1965 to 1990 (give or take). My brother is a CPA, and a major partner in a large CPA firm, which is located in downtown Denver. My sister is an attorney. They both aided my farther in the IRS negotiations. - Millet

John, an unborn baby has a heart beat about 20 days after fertilization and brain waves at about 40 days. Anyone that looks at an ultrasound of an unborn baby knows exactly what it is: an unborn baby, a live human being. They are our most vulnerable members of society and protecting them is truly a noble cause. Doing anything else is a disgrace to society.
