I'm sorry but I just don't see the necessity of Planned Parenthood anyway. Gee, as far as condoms go, what's wrong with going to the local drug store and buying them? They aren't that expensive. Certainly a poor person who needs a condom for free, can atleast afford a place to have sex, be it a car or a home. So why can't that spring $12 for a box of condoms? Whatever! Birth control pills aren't that expensive either. Planned Parenthood still makes you pay for them, just about $10 cheaper than a doctor.

What's wrong with just going to a doctor? Oh, I forgot. Poor people don't have health care. Guess we better call Hillary to fix that problem for us. You can go to your county hospital and get them just as easily as Planned Parenthood.

Correct me if I'm wrong on this, but I thought organizations who receive tax money can't support a candidate? Is that right or wrong?

I wrote a letter to my Senator about this, and the answer I got (if I remember correctly) came down to what was essentially creative bookkeeping.

They jsut claim that the money they get from the government is indeed earmarked for "health services", and that the other funds they get from other places (private) are used for political purposes.

Think rob Peter (the taxpayer) to pay Paul (the DNC)
