Hard to imagine a worse PR move than Planned Parenthood offering abortion gift certificates for Christmas.
The official explained the group offers a range of services that can be purchased with the gift cards including pap smears, breast exams, birth control prescriptions and abortions. The organization performs about 5,000 abortions a year, according to one published figure, out of 92,000 patients treated.Indiana's health commissioner, Judy Monroe, ignores the mounting political denunciations and calls the idea "really a meaningful gift."
Indiana's Right to Life president, Mike Fichter, concisely frames reality.
But Fichter is unpersuaded. "The tragedy is that almost 6,000 fewer children will be celebrating a first Christmas this year," he said, "because they were aborted in Planned Parenthood's Indiana clinics."
It's hard to imagine anything more ghoulish than slaughtering babies for profit.
