Clinton to appear at Planned Parenthood event
Doing a rare domestic political event, and continuing the Obama administration's forceful, if understated alliance with abortion-rights groups, Hillary Clinton will receive an award from Planned Parenthood Friday night in Houston, the group says.
"The 2009 Planned Parenthood Federation of America (PPFA) Margaret Sanger Award, the organization’s highest honor, will be presented to U.S. Secretary of State Hillary Rodham Clinton, who has been a champion of women’s health and rights throughout her public service career," according to the release.
Planned Parenthood president Cecile Richards is an old Clinton ally, and women's health was a central issue for her in the Senate. Her appearance, though, suggests she's raising her profile a bit beyond what had been, to date, a determined effort to keep her focus entirely on her new portfolio.
UPDATE: Planned Parenthood's Tait Sye emails, "Sect. Clinton was invited and accepted the invitation to the dinner long before she was nominated to be Secretary of State."
Whats the award?
A bronze statue of an aborted fetus?
It speaks volumes that the organization’s “highest award” is named after Margaret Sanger.
It is refreshing to read something from the MSM about Planned Parenthood that doesn’t include the phrase “pro-choice”.
Nasty. I would be disgusted to be offered that award....
Yes-—it is really CREEPY, isn’t it? My gosh, ol Ms Sanger was a proponet of perfecting the population, sort of like ol Hitler was. It does fit that a death merchant has an award named for her that is going to be bestowed upon hillary, tho. After all, she has done nothing but empower the infant slaughter brigade.
How appropriate, the genocidal PIAPS receiving an award named for the original, historical beeotch that promoted eugenics via abortion.
Makes perfect sense to me.
Lib's love to stuff their trophy cases with meaningless prizes that are handed out by like-minded Lib's......
For those that do not know her agenda especially the lurkers, here is a link..
How Planned Parenthood Duped America
At a March 1925 international birth control gathering in New York City, a speaker warned of the menace posed by the “black” and “yellow” peril. The man was not a Nazi or Klansman; he was Dr. S. Adolphus Knopf, a member of Margaret Sanger’s American Birth Control League (ABCL), which along with other groups eventually became known as Planned Parenthood.

The Margaret Sanger Award is the equivalent of the Adolph Hitler. Sanger’s organization has murdered more than Hitler’s, though, and is still murdering.
What an honor. Sanger was an avowed socialist who hated capitalism and believed in Nazi-esque eugenics.
I can’t believe they have the temerity to hold this disgusting person up as a great hero of the “womens’ movement”. She’s right up there with Joseph Mengele as far as I’m concerned.
So Clinton went from being the first ‘black’ president to a racist white woman?
sorry, thougth it was about Bill. Should have read closer
ROFL!!
How FITTING!
The Nazis modeled their eugenics pogrom after Sanger’s ideas.

My God, Margaret Sanger was a human monster. To be a recipient of an award in her name is not something I’d advertise. Poor Hillary gets the short end of every stick, doesn’t she? (smile)
This is an opportunity. Hillary receiving the award and then an explanation of just who Sanger was and what PP is all about could really be useful.
Anytime there is an opportunity to expose a group like this and drive a nail in their coffin it should not be squandered.
I am sure Hillary will have her friend Huma there with her.
No worries about parenthood there.
