There seems to be a pretty steady stream of news popping up about Planned Parenthood (PP) over the past month with most of it being highly disturbing.  Whether it’s about their receiving taxpayer money that cannot be segregated from that spent on abortions,  explicit videos designed to entice teens into a sexually active lifestyle, or reports that clinics are performing abortions on people that should not be having them, PP seems to attract trouble.

Now, however, they have announced a new offering that can only be described as their achieving a new low in their open promotion of behavior that can only be intended to line their pockets with money from all the demand for abortions caused by their blatant promotion of teen sex.

According to Liberty News Network, “Where did you wear it?” is the name of the newest “official” PP web site.  While it appears from the title that it might be a play on a fashion trend, it is actually a site devoted to allowing teens to put pins in the map at all the places around town and across the country where they have worn a condom while having sex.  To teens, it is a game, and that is the intent.  PP wants sex to be like a game that is both “fun and safe” – as PP sees it anyway.

So how does it work?  As distasteful as it might seem, in the interests of research, I checked it out.  While it does not require a person to “register” with personal information, it asks for an address where the act took place, offers choices in several categories that demonstrate unequivocally that all types of guy-girl, guy-guy, girl-girl, transgender-guy, and anything in between is acceptable to PP.  The list under “My Relationship Is” clearly demonstrate that the site places no more significance to the act than tying one’s shoes or playing baseball with the kids in the front yard.  Here’s a list of those relationship categories:

• Just for fun;   Getting Serious;   All about love;   Brand New;  On the rocks; or What Relationship?

Martinsburg, WV – All the excitement over the Susan G. Komen defunding-then-refunding Planned Parenthood fiasco has died down. This is, in no small part, thanks to the fact that Komen did in fact reinstate its funding of Planned Parenthood and pro-life Senior VP Karen Handle is no longer with the organization. I think this is also due to the collective disgust felt by millions of pro-life advocates that prematurely gave Komen a slap on the back and promise of support.

Is it possible the whole thing was nothing more than an ingenious PR campaign on the part of both organizations designed to boost donations? Because the fiasco accomplished that goal. No, no, no wild conspiracy theories here.

What is not dying down is the anger over the partnership between Planned Parenthood and the Girl Scouts. This is a scenario straight from Cecile Richards’ nightmares as both organizations are being blasted from all sides for a partnership they say doesn’t exist; while more and more evidence of the partnership surfaces.

Cathy Cleaver Ruse has a very informative article in the Washington Times showing the deep and secure partnership between the Girl Scouts and Planned Parenthood. At this point, trying to deny the partnership exists is somewhat like trying to deny the earth revolves around the sun; or that the sun exists. No one’s buying it. Ruse says:

“If Girl Scout defenders call this old news, show them the current Planned Parenthood sex-ed program, ‘Real Life. Real Talk,’ where the Girl Scouts of NYPENN are listed as a valuable partner. (A screenshot of the page is saved at FRCBlog.com.)…A cottage industry of Girl Scouts watchdog groups has flourished online with names like Girl Scouts Why Not, 100 Questions For the Girl Scouts, Honest Girl Scouts, Speak NowGirl Scouts…Visit these sites to see Girl Scouts tax returns showing its annual million-dollar-plus contribution to the radical World Association of Girl Guides and Girl Scouts, an aggressively pro-abortion organization that openly partners with International Planned Parenthood Federation. (Incidentally, every little girl who signs up for the Girl Scouts is automatically made a member of this umbrella group.) See the biographies of speakers at the Girl Scouts’ 2011 national convention and discover their positions withPlanned Parenthood and their promotion of Planned Parenthood.

Martinsburg, WV – I can hardly believe the words as they came out of my mouth. I was sitting at my desk, reading an article and suddenly I said “I agree with Biden.” After three years in office I can honestly say it is the first time I have ever uttered those words (and most probably the last time). Nonetheless I said them, and I am sticking to what I said.

Here’s why I agree with Biden. It comes back to the Obama insurance mandate that has the whole country fighting mad over trampling our religious liberty while forcing us all to fund contraception, sterilization, and abortifacient drugs. What many people don’t know about this story is the people on the committee that formed the mandate and then pushed the president to make it law. That is where things get interesting, as Lifenews.com reported:

“Jake Tapper of ABC News wrote a remarkable story last week revealing the players in the Obama administration’s internal debate on the contraception mandate…According to Tapper, President Obama’s top advisers on the issue included Vice President Joe Biden, former White House Chief-of-Staff Bill Daley, Defense Secretary Leon Panetta, HHS Secretary Kathleen Sebelius, former Domestic Policy Council Director Melody Barnes, White House Senior Advisers Valerie Jarrett and Pete Rouse, former White House Communications Director Anita Dunn, two U.S. Senators – and Planned Parenthood Federation for America CEO Cecile Richards.”

What is most interesting about this group of people (other than Leon Panetta being on it – I’m not sure what contraception and defense have in common) is that only one person stood to gain financially from this decision – Cecile Richards and Planned Parenthood. And who do you think was most vocal about the mandate? Yep, Cecile Richards and Planned Parenthood.

This may be the greatest resource in defending religious freedom.

Martinsburg, WV – The outrage over Obama’s insurance mandate made national news just a couple of weeks ago. As details of this far over-reaching agreement that demands religious employers pay for contraceptives, sterilization and abortifacients against their religious convictions hit the airwaves, outrage grew. Even the so-called “compromise” was proven to be nothing more than smoke and mirrors attempting to assuage concerns.

One of my questions over the whole matter was “where are the pastor’s and evangelical leaders?” I couldn’t help but wonder why more pastors did not speak up over this issue and voice concern over the trampling of religious freedom. Sure, maybe on the surface the mandate does not affect every religious denomination, but the precedent of trampling religious freedom should be enough to cause grace concern for all those that cherish religious freedom.

Thankfully, religious leaders are beginning to speak up. An article by Lifenews.com shares details of a new letter signed by more than 2,500 religious leaders in opposition to the new insurance mandate. Family Research Council president Tony Perkins was joined by Dr. Richard Land, President, Southern Baptist Convention’s Ethics & Religious Liberty Commission and Bishop Harry Jackson, Senior Pastor, Hope Christian Church in announcing opposition to Obama’s insurance mandate

“It took just three weeks, but every single Catholic Bishop in America has officially condemned the President’s mandate…Every pocket of religious America is linking arms at the front lines of this war on religious freedom…No church should be forced to concede their faith to kneel at the altar of government. And until the administration rights this wrong, we unite with our allies in diverse faith traditions in demanding what George Washington called ‘the invaluable rights of free citizens.’”

The following is a portion of the letter that was signed by these religious leaders and sent to President Obama:

Martinsburg, WV – The video below certainly has been making the rounds on the Internet and new outlets. Many people are outraged that Indiana State Rep. Bob Morris would make such claims about the Girl Scouts and Planned Parenthood. He’s been called a lot of names and certainly much hate has been thrown his way for his comments. But is he wrong?

Rep. Morris wrote a letter to fellow colleagues explaining his concerns in which he stated:

“…abundant evidence proves that the agenda of Planned Parenthood includes sexualizing young girls through the Girl Scouts, which is quickly becoming a tactical arm of Planned Parenthood. Planned Parenthood instructional series and pamphlets are part of the core curriculum at GSA training seminars. Denver Auxiliary Bishop James D. Conley of Denver last year warned parents that “membership in the Girl Scouts could carry the danger of making their daughters more receptive to the pro-abortion agenda.”

No sooner had Rep. Morris made these comments did he come under attack for mischaracterizing the Girl Scouts and spreading misinformation about them; most vehemently they deny any association with Planned Parenthood. But it’s hard for the Girl Scouts to deny any partnership with Planned Parenthood when Girl Scout CEO Kathy Cloninger appeared on national television admitting that Girl Scout troops do indeed partner with Planned Parenthood.

What is most intriguing about the video below is the comments by Girl Scouts of Central Indiana Chief Operating Officer Cathy Ritchie. Ritchie says in the video that there is “no relationship” between Girl Scouts of Indiana and Planned Parenthood; that there never has been and never will be a relationship between the two groups.

Martinsburg, WV – President Obama seems to be an expert on the Constitution. I’ve never seen a president that was so skilled in what the Constitution said that he was able to simultaneously trample our founding documents and the liberties therein, and anger a majority of Americans all at the same time. Yet that is exactly what continues to happen.

From Obamacare to the new contraception mandate Obama seems keenly skilled at finding ways to trample rights and anger those with religious and conscience objections to abortion. Because let’s face it, both of those bills contain broad measures in them that violate the religious convictions and consciences of a majority of Americans.

Sure, the president promised that no federal money would be used to pay for abortions (that must’ve really confused Planned Parenthood since they get millions in federal money for abortions). And Obama even signed an “executive order” to make sure of this. All that was just clever politi-speech to get the bill passed. Quoting ADF Senior Counsel Steven Aden, WND.com explains:

“No one should be forced to violate their conscience by paying for abortions, but that’s precisely what Obamacare does…Obamacare requires that employees enrolled in certain health plans pay a separate insurance premium specifically to pay for other people’s elective abortions and offers no opt-out for religious or moral reasons. Such a mandate cannot survive constitutional scrutiny…The drafters of the Act sought to include, for the first time in our nation’s history, health plans that cover elective abortion within the government-subsidized insurance exchanges…Due to the public uproar, the drafters devised a scheme to avoid the direct federal funding of abortion. This goal of avoiding the use of tax-payer subsidies for abortion coverage was unfortunately achieved by a means that violates the First Amendment; namely, by compelling the taxpayer to personally pay a separate abortion premium.”

Martinsburg, WV – Just when you think you’ve seen and heard it all, you get a glimpse of a video exposing the depravity of Planned Parenthood. This is not an organization that does “good” things and is just getting a bad rap from people like me. This is a deeply corrupt organization that seeks to spread a message of casual sex, abortion on demand and homosexuality to our kids. As a parent I cannot tell you how disturbed I am by this organization and the perverse ideology they spread.

The video, “Hooking Kids on Sex” is no exception as it exposes the agenda of Planned Parenthood. The American Life League (ALL), which produced the video, wants to warn parents of the dangers their kids will be exposed to through associating with Planned Parenthood. All says;

“Any parent that sees the video of Planned Parenthood’s material for school children will be horrified. Planned Parenthood’s business model is aimed at making money from people who are engaged in sexual activity. The earlier Planned Parenthood can get girls having sex, the more money they make. Many of these children will become the women who will have abortions, which made up 51% of Planned Parenthood’s clinic revenue in 2010.”

ALL encourages parents to speak openly and honestly about sex with their kids because, if they don’t, someone will. And most likely that someone will be Planned Parenthood or a PP affiliate, a fact that could be disastrous to anyone with even a strand of moral fiber. All commented;

“Planned Parenthood wants kids to choose them for their sexual education over their own parents. They want to be the trusted friend and advocate for kids of all ages. They know that a conversation about sex with a stranger or browsing a Planned Parenthood website about teen sex is easier than talking with their parents. The abortion giant has no problem using tax dollars to exploit that fear and make money off those kids.”

Parkersburg, WV - Planned Parenthood (PP) has gone fishing, but it’s not where they should be doing such things.  They are fishing for future customers and the pond they are fishing in is the one that holds our children for much of each week day.  Yes, our public schools are helping with their search and the bait they are using is pure, raw, unfettered, and sometimes unnatural sex.  Yes, they are using sex as bait to indoctrinate our children into the world of unrestricted sexual behavior.

If you really want to know just how devious and committed PP is in distributing such information without any moral foundation, just visit their propaganda site here.

In order to explain what is happening, though, some specific terms may be used that might make some of you uncomfortable, but as parents, you need to know just what Planned Parenthood is being paid to do with your tax dollars. Nothing is left to the child’s imagination here.  Their literature lays out everything from masturbation through sexual intercourse to same-sex activities and sodomy, complete with pictures, cartoon characters made to look like sex organs.

This video and article shows you some of the actual printed material that is used in this process of setting children up for potential problems with pregnancies and STD’s before they reach their junior prom or even earlier.  They are starting them off young and claiming the whole time that this is good, solid, scientific information that every child should know and understand before they face these problems without the benefit of knowing what they are doing or how to do it.

Again here, the video is quite graphic but it an absolute necessity to understand if you have children or grandchildren attending public schools in the United States.  There is no such thing as a “safe school” anymore.  There will never be such a thing again unless funding of this program through PP is ended and prohibited in the future.  What drives me a little batty is that while distributing this kind of information they claim to be supporting abstinence as well. From their website:

Martinsburg, WV – I’m not sure where to begin with this video; do I begin with the video portraying abstinence advocates as smarmy little bullies, perhaps portraying pro-lifers as zombies, or simply the idea that “eliminating” anyone that opposes pro-abortion ideology by any means necessary is acceptable. Truly this is both disturbing and outrageous all at the same time.

In this Planned Parenthood video from 2005 we are introduced to a “super-hero” for the pro-abortion movement. Her mission is evidently to remove any and all obstacles to Planned Parenthood’s agenda. So the first thing to go is a strangely dressed abstinence advocate. I guess anyone that believes abstinence is the only safe and sure way to avoid unwanted pregnancy and STD’s is an enemy worthy of, according to the video, being drowned in a garbage can full of water.

The next “obstacle” for our hero is a crowd of peaceful protestors outside an abortion clinic. The hero makes mention that according to the Constitution these people have a right to protest peacefully and voice their opposition. But then she decides they need eliminated as well. So she pulls out a “condom gun,” shoots them all with latex and they promptly explode. And our hero seems quite happy with the result. The lesson is that anyone opposing abortion is worthy of violence and bodily harm, including death!?

If you think this is outrageous just watch the rest of the video, if you can. Though it no longer appears on any Planned Parenthood website, the fact that it was created and did appear for any length of time is the problem. The mentality of a group that would produce such a video and allow it to be seen is scary. Does Planned Parenthood really advocate for violence against anyone that opposes them or abortion? Will Planned Parenthood condone killing protestors? (They advocate for killing innocent children so it’s not really a stretch to think they would.)

Take a look at the video. You just might come to the same conclusion I did long ago about Planned Parenthood; they are first and foremost about money and abortion. And they will do anything to anyone that stands in their way.
