Scaife can support PP all he wants with his own dollars.
He makes no case for PP getting any of MY dollars.
If PP is such a great damn idea, can it not survive on its own?
Unbelievable...people should research Sanger and listen or read her speeches...the woman was no different than a Nazi. She worshiped eugenics...evil...evil..person.
What an achievement more than 50 million dead because of her!
What is it with these left progressives...they just aren’t happy until millions die especially the helpless!
Look at Rachael Carson...ban DDT and kill millions in Africa...but that isn’t racism?
This is not a hard decision.
The ruling class “elites” in DC are spending $1.5T a year more than they bring in, $5,000 per man, woman, and child in our country. Even if you ignore the evil of taking our money by force and using it to kill the innocent, we cannot afford to do everything “nice” that someone in our country wants our federal government to do. For the sake of the children that liberals permit to survive, we need to cut the federal budget back to the essentials.
Even those who think the world needs more dead babies should be objective enough to see that the taxpayers can’t afford to kill as many of our children as they want to kill. We need to scale back the federal government to only those enumerated powers in the Constitution, and killing the next generation doesn’t make the list. If Scaife wants more dead infants, he needs to pay for that himself, not with money that our (living) children will eventually have to repay.
Yeah, and that one little murder should be cancelled out by all the good that Mr._____ did. Is that the logic?
That "minor" aspect is what all the controversy is about.
The same Margaret Sanger who pushed for and received legislation allowing for the forced sterilization of "undesirables?" The same Margaret Sanger who hated black people? The same Margaret Sanger who wanted to only allow certain "desirable" persons to breed? The same Margaret Sanger who pushed for the forced abortion of "undesirable" children? The same Margaret Sanger whose writings appear below:
On blacks, immigrants and indigents:
"...human weeds,' 'reckless breeders,' 'spawning... human beings who never should have been born." Margaret Sanger, Pivot of Civilization, referring to immigrants and poor people.
On sterilization & racial purification:
Sanger believed that, for the purpose of racial "purification," couples should be rewarded who chose sterilization. Birth Control in America, The Career of Margaret Sanger, by David Kennedy, p. 117, quoting a 1923 Sanger speech.
On the right of married couples to bear children:
Couples should be required to submit applications to have a child, she wrote in her "Plan for Peace." Birth Control Review, April 1932
On the purpose of birth control:
The purpose in promoting birth control was "to create a race of thoroughbreds," she wrote in the Birth Control Review, Nov. 1921 (p. 2)
On the rights of the handicapped and mentally ill, and racial minorities:
"More children from the fit, less from the unfit -- that is the chief aim of birth control." Birth Control Review, May 1919, p. 12
On religious convictions regarding sex outside of marriage:
"This book aims to answer the needs expressed in thousands on thousands of letters to me in the solution of marriage problems... Knowledge of sex truths frankly and plainly presented cannot possibly injure healthy, normal, young minds. Concealment, suppression, futile attempts to veil the unveilable - these work injury, as they seldom succeed and only render those who indulge in them ridiculous. For myself, I have full confidence in the cleanliness, the open-mindedness, the promise of the younger generation." Margaret Sanger, Happiness in Marriage (Bretano's, New York, 1927)
On the extermination of blacks:
"We do not want word to go out that we want to exterminate the Negro population," she said, "if it ever occurs to any of their more rebellious members." Woman's Body, Woman's Right: A Social History of Birth Control in America, by Linda Gordon
On respecting the rights of the mentally ill:
In her "Plan for Peace," Sanger outlined her strategy for eradication of those she deemed "feebleminded." Among the steps included in her evil scheme were immigration restrictions; compulsory sterilization; segregation to a lifetime of farm work; etc. Birth Control Review, April 1932, p. 107
On adultery:
A woman's physical satisfaction was more important than any marriage vow, Sanger believed. Birth Control in America, p. 11
On marital sex:
"The marriage bed is the most degenerating influence in the social order," Sanger said. (p. 23) [Quite the opposite of God's view on the matter: "Marriage is honorable in all, and the bed undefiled; but whoremongers and adulterers God will judge." (Hebrews 13:4)
On abortion:
"Criminal' abortions arise from a perverted sex relationship under the stress of economic necessity, and their greatest frequency is among married women." The Woman Rebel - No Gods, No Masters, May 1914, Vol. 1, No. 3.
On the YMCA and YWCA:
"...brothels of the Spirit and morgues of Freedom!", The Woman Rebel - No Gods, No Masters, May 1914, Vol. 1, No. 3.
On the Catholic Church's view of contraception:
"...enforce SUBJUGATION by TURNING WOMAN INTO A MERE INCUBATOR." The Woman Rebel - No Gods, No Masters, May 1914, Vol. 1, No. 3.
On motherhood:
"I cannot refrain from saying that women must come to recognize there is some function of womanhood other than being a child-bearing machine." What Every Girl Should Know, by Margaret Sanger (Max Maisel, Publisher, 1915) [Jesus said: "Daughters of Jerusalem, weep... for your children. For, behold, the days are coming, in which they shall say, Blessed (happy) are the barren, and the wombs that never bear, and the breasts which never gave suck." (Luke 23:24)]
"The most merciful thing that a large family does to one of its infant members is to kill it."
Margaret Sanger, Women and the New Race (Eugenics Publ. Co., 1920, 1923)

At one time, I seriously considered subscribing to Richard M. Scaife’s Pittsburgh Tribune-Review, because our local Johnstown Tribune Democrat newspaper is such a pathetic excuse for journalistism. However, given this piece of demonic propaganda, I’ll never spend a dime supporting any Trib Total Media Inc. owned business.
Do Quinn and Rose broadcast on a station owned by Trib Total Media Inc. ?!?
Imagine that. Planned Parenthood funding an ad to argue for retaining their government funding.
This is an out-and-out lie, not to mention just a stupid statement.
I'm betting that not one single person walked through their doors last year and said: "I'm here to discuss ideas on better ideas about family planning before we get around to starting ours."
The BS meter is pegged out on that one.
Real men dont support baby killing.
In other words, we want to make sure that there are more abotions of those we don’t like to be around.
Culture of death.
Sponsored by Republicans for Genocide? The same folks that were Republicans for Obama?
Is this buttonhole kidding??? Margaret Sanger intended to kill the inferior babies, the minorities, the sick, the disabled. how can he admire this hitlerian racist eugenist????
Guess what, women? When you have sex you might get pregnant. And when you are pregnant, you are not wholly in charge of your body any more. Your best nutrients, your fluids, all go to the baby first.
If you want control of your body, you are in luck — choose not to have sex.
This guy is proud of sanger?? What a racist.
Isn't it illegal for Planned Parenthood Federation of America to spend money lobbying government, when it has a favored tax status and received government money?
So my tax dollars are being used to lobby for more of my tax dollars, so they can set up facilities that pretend to offer mammograms so they can entice women to abort their children.
Chastity is another way for a woman to be “mistress of her own body”. Oddly enough, I can’t remember Margaret Sanger ever saying anything good about that method of female autonomy. /s
Nowhere to turn for birth control? Condoms are on sale everywhere, fercryinoutloud.
What a pack of lies in this article.
Margaret Sanger's character was impugned during her lifetime and deservedly so. Today, in our morally deplete society she's hailed a hero.
A central part of what planned parenthood does is all about abortion. The rest of their "services" are just excuses and cover for their continued existence.
Richard Scaiffe is NO conservative. I'm actually relieved. I'd thought a REAL conservative had penned this piece, and was promoting the idea as some sort of tactic.
