'Deceitful' Planned Parenthood report ignores abortion
The president of Planned Parenthood has sent an annual report to donors, but the topic of abortion is nowhere to be found.
According to LifeNews.com, instead of focusing on abortion, Planned Parenthood president Cecile Richards mentioned a rise in dispersing birth control, contraception, and other supposed legitimate medical services in the report. She also boasted about helping convince 11 more states to "decline federal abstinence-only funding, bringing the total to 26."
Jim Sedlak of American Life League finds it odd that Richards left out abortion, considering Planned Parenthood clinics perform 24 percent of the abortions done in America. "But they don't want to admit it. They don't want to talk about it," he notes. "They continually claim it is not a major part of their business, even though it provides a third of their clinic income."
The omission, according to Sedlak, is simply an example of Planned Parenthood's deceitful nature, adding that it creates a false image. "With the amount of abortions that Planned Parenthood does in the ever-increasing number of Planned Parenthood clinics that do abortions -- over 287 clinics do abortions in their own facilities -- and yet the organization's president doesn't even mention it," he adds. "How ridiculous that would be."
