Catholic priests shouldn't toss around the Nazi insult too often, especially when you consider that the Pope actually WAS A GODDAMNED HITLER YOUTH member. Mind you, every abortion that happens is one less potential child to sexually molest in the bosom of Jesus, so I can see why they get angry. It reduces their dating pool.

Here's my favorite part:

"Joseph D'Agostino, a spokesman for the anti-abortion Population Research Institute, said the foundation position "is simply dishonest."

"Abortion services are the primary mission of Planned Parenthood," he said. "If you fund one side of an organization, that frees them up to transfer funds to the other things they do."

Odd, that's the same arguement I make when you start talking about giving government money to churches (and also with regards to their tax exempt status, btw) to perform "faith based initiatives."

Why does CNN even give these wackos a microphone?

Do we publish also everything naked joe the homeless guy screams out into the night just because it has shock value? Because I'd put them on about the same level of grasp on reality.

Well as an ex media guy I can simply put it as "Monetary returns for shock value items is the only way the media corperations have been able to stave of flat revenue groth rates prevailent since the news medias peak in the 1960's.". :mumble: :mumble:

the media corperates are just that.... Corperates they are only in it for the buck that's always the bottom line regardless of any civic duty that they proclaim (that's just the product marketing spin for the consumers).

Not that I have an axe to grind or anything.......

And the fact that we're talking about it here pretty much proves the point.

So if you hate Microsoft that makes you anti-abortion? Maybe that can be Apple's next ad campaign.
