HOLLYWOOD, May 10, 2006 (LifeSiteNews.com) - Actress Blythe Danner and her daughter, actress Gwenneth Paltrow, have disappointed fans by issuing a letter supporting Planned Parenthood, the world's largest abortion supplier, and denouncing the "growing movement" to end abortion as "disturbing."
"I think fans like to look at Blythe Danner and Gwenneth Paltrow as an example of loving family members. It is disappointing to see how Grandma and Mom could so radically support the brutal killing of innocent babies who would be just as loving and adorable as Paltrow's children, Apple and new baby Moses, if they were given the same opportunity to live," said Operation Rescue spokesperson Cheryl Sullenger.
"It is particularly insensitive and insulting that they have chosen Mother's Day to make a statement in support of abortion under the guise of 'protecting women' when there is ample evidence that abortion has physical, emotional, and psychological consequences that have adversely affected the lives of tens of thousands of women who would now give anything to undo their abortions," said Sullenger. "These regrets are particularly pronounced around Mother's Day. Their comments only add salt to the wounds of hurting women everywhere."
"If Danner and Paltrow were really interested in protecting women, they would use their influence to stop the tragedy of abortion, not continue it," Sullenger said.

They have both probably had abortions in their past.
She's got a nice looking bee-hind, but other than that, THUMBS DO-O-O-OWN!
Would I be out of line to assume that she's a raging Hollywood hypocrite, preaching socialism while living in opulence and luxury?
I hope all abortion clinics end up that way.
I was just going to say that mom and daughter are too dense to see the gallows irony they participed in. They literally have no idea how idiotic and heartless they are.
Relax people, It's just a couple of losers gaining speed on the down side of the arc.
May they see the light....they are in darkness.
Having said that, I fully understand why the prolife groups are outraged!!....and on Mother's Day....
Gwyneth Paltrow just gave birth to her second child and is plugging for abortion on Mother's Day.
Am I the only one who see a contraditcion here?
Wow...You know your mother loves you when she suddenly supports abortion rights.
"I'm surprised no one has ever come out with "thanks for not aborting me" products for Mothers' Day . . ."
I'm surprised we're still allowed to call it "Mothers' Day"! Pretty soon it'll be "Legal Guardian of One or More Children, While not Restricted to Sexual Orientation, Gender, Etc...Day"
I wonder if that's what they celebrate in San Francisco.
But seriously, what's going to happen to the poor adopted kids whose parents are both male or both female?
I believe that would be retroactive abortion.
Avid promoters of pre-born baby killing can often be people who have done it and desperately trying to justify the wicked procedure to avoid facing the truth.
They have. Please check this website. There are all kinds of products for sale.

There is another bill in the legislature somewhere in California to ban the terms "mother" and "father" for the very reason stated in the article.
Or simply followers of Baal who demanded infanticide...
I'm well against abortion and i won't find myself going through the process. what if you frequently webdate and get knocked up? The best defense we will always have is facts and proper education.
Some line about "the banality of evil" comes to mind. Deranged kooky liberal people with too much time on their hands. And you wonder how much thought and reflection they actually put into this. Mother's Day??? Is this really the legacy they want to dedicate their lives to - i.e., making sure others never see life???
They have revealed their hand. Sad and pathetic.
Paltrow is a bird brain. I suspect that Danner, a big lib who called out for our troops to retreat from Iraq during an awards ceremony, is the force behind this stupid statement. They both should be ashamed.
