Report: Planned Parenthood Apologizes for Encouraging Donation Aimed at Aborting Black Babies
Monday , March 17, 2008
Planned Parenthood of Idaho has apologized after an employee encouraged a telephone donation aimed at aborting black babies.
Officials for the group said last month that the employee made a "serious mistake" encouraging the donation, the Idaho Statesman reports. But Planned Parenthood criticized the publication that made the call — The Advocate, a student anti-abortion magazine at the University of California-Los Angeles — for trying to discredit the organization by having an actor pose as a donor, the Idaho Statesman reports.
"A fundraising employee violated the organization's principles and practices when she appeared to be willing to accept a racially motivated donation," Planned Parenthood of Idaho CEO Rebecca Poedy said in a written statement to the Statesman. "We apologize for the manner in which this offensive call was handled. We take full responsibility for the actions of the fundraising staff member who created the impression that racism of any form would be tolerated at Planned Parenthood.

At least it's good to see them being on the defensive for once.
Planned Parenthood has also been busted in the past for not reporting statuary rape to police.

In the proud tradition of Margaret Sanger
Indict the organization for a ‘hate crime’. I choose a hate crime accusation since that is more serious than mere murder of an innocent. There is, IMHO, a serious basis to an indictment and, if convicted, they could not receive future federal funds.
Great idea that will never happen.

That was a fake call. We should not be doing that sort of thing. That’s what the left does.
Of course PP is despicable.
I would think that would qualify for a RICO charge
Eugenics at work-and the black population thinks “whites” are against them-rather they should be thinking about liberal organizations like PP....
Why not? That’s their heritage.
Here's what the founder, Margaret Sanger, had to say:
"We should hire three or four colored ministers, preferably with social-service backgrounds, and with engaging personalities. The most successful educational approach to the Negro is through a religious appeal. We don't want the word to go out that we want to exterminate the Negro population. and the minister is the man who can straighten out that idea if it ever occurs to any of their more rebellious members."- Margaret Sanger's December 19, 1939 letter to Dr. Clarence Gamble
More evil from an evil organization.
I guess this means that PP is actually an equal-opportunity murderer....
PP implements affirmative action. /sarc
IOW: They are equal opportunity murderers.
When dems say they made a mistake, what they mean is they made a mistake in getting CAUGHT...not in what they did. I saw the transcript, and the lady knew exactly what was being said and she agreed to it without any reluctance. Dems just don't like their racism being revealed.
