The former president of Planned Parenthood told a crowd of impressionable young college students Thursday that abortion is essential to gender equality. The Cornell Daily Sun reports Gloria Feldt, who led the abortion chain in the 1990s and early 2000s, spoke at Cornell University during an event sponsored by Cornell Hillel. The title of her talk was “3 Truths About Sex, Power and Leadership.” Like many pro-abortion feminists, Feldt claimed that abortion (women’s legal ability to kill their unborn babies) is empowering for women as they compete with men for power. “Sex is about power, more than anything else,” Feldt...

But few have gone as far as former Planned Parenthood president Gloria Feldt, who suggested Palin is making her daughter keep the baby. "She probably feels powerless right now," Feldt said on Tuesday responding to the news about Bristol Palin. Feldt said Governor Palin’s pro-life views may have made it so she and her husband Todd prevented Bristol from getting an abortion. "Because of her family's attitude she...

Just days after stepping down as president of the Planned Parenthood Federation of America, Gloria Feldt is enlightening us as to exactly why pro-abortionists were dealt such a stinging blow on Nov. 2 – it's all John Kerry's fault. Tapping into some of the anger she apparently never exhausted while overseeing the destruction of more than 1.3 million unborn children over the last eight years, Feldt chastised Kerry for his unclear abortion rhetoric during the presidential campaign. "I have great respect for John Kerry, but there's no question he did not articulate [abortion] issues well," Fedlt told The Associated Press,...

The outgoing president of Planned Parenthood, Gloria Feldt, commended her anti-abortion adversaries Tuesday for their political skills and criticized ally John Kerry for an ineffective defense of abortion rights during his losing presidential campaign. "I have great respect for John Kerry, but there's no question he did not articulate these issues well," Feldt said in an interview. "He seemed equivocal.

"A national search for a new president will begin immediately, according to PPFA Chair La Don Love." Apply here. Of course, talking furniture alone cannot run a major organization. Our guess is that if PPFA manages to find a new president, it'll be someone whose mother decided not to have an abortion.

Gloria Feldt, the president of Planned Parenthood, the leading killers of human life the world has ever known, made the following statement after the Senate passed the ban on the barbaric partial-birth abortion. The detection of a mindset akin to Adolph Hitler is startling. "It takes acknowledgment that choice is not pretty, but neither is the alternative -- medically risky pregnancies that threaten a woman's life, unwanted babies who will never know love, and an increased population of children with serious birth defects, living in a society less willing to pay for them." Satan, himself would be hard pressed to...
