Mosher makes a few points that I also regularly make when Sanger's name is mentioned. In fact, there is a strong similarity between his column and something I wrote four years ago on another forum:
On African-Americans:"[We propose to] 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 do not want 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.''

On infanticide: "The most merciful thing that the large family does to one of its infant members is to kill it.''

On eugenics: "Birth control must lead ultimately to a cleaner race.''

Sanger was a Nazi sympathizer. She was strongly anti-Semitic. She was a partner in a birth control organization with a man named Henry Pratt Fairchild, who wrote The Melting Pot Mistake, in which he accused "the Jews" of diluting the true American stock. In his book, Race and Nationality, Fairchild blamed anti-Semitism and the holocaust in part on "the Jews."

Because of the strong association in the public mind between The American Birth Control League and Sanger's Nazi sympathies, during WWII she changed its name to Planned Parenthood.

Margaret Sanger, the still-revered founder of Planned Parenthood, was an undiluted eugenicist committed to, in her words, the elimination of "weeds . . . overrunning the human garden" and the segregation of "morons, misfits, and the maladjusted." Her journal, The Birth Control Review, was a repository for racist bile. I would like to see Planned Prenthood reissue some of the articles that ran in it. The resulting fireworks and gasps among today's left-leaning cognescenti who support Planned Parenthood would be spectacular to behold. Lothrop Stoddard, who also was on Sanger’s Board of Directors, wrote in The Rising Tide of Color Against White World-Supremacy that "we must resolutely oppose both Asiatic permeation of white race-areas and Asiatic inundation of those non-white, but equally non-Asiatic regions inhabited by the really inferior races."

All of this is on the public record. Spend a moment, Sarah [my debating opponent on that occasion], and try to disprove any of it.

I think Mosher and I must have used some of the same sources. For the life of me, since it was four years ago, I can't remember where I got this stuff.

Hey, maybe we should.

All we ever do is reel under the blows coming from these leftwing lightweights.

Which is a joke, as they have soooo many weak points, it's not even funny.

The best defense is attacking them
