The following comes from a Mar. 4 story on the Catholic News Agency website.
Planned Parenthood’s intention to spend millions of dollars to support political candidates who favor legal abortion shows the need to speak out more on the issue, pro-life groups say.
“There are no winners, except those making money by selling abortions, when Big Abortion leader Planned Parenthood pours millions into America’s elections,” Lila Rose, the president of the pro-life group Live Action, told Fox News Feb. 27.
The abortion provider’s political arms, the Planned Parenthood Action Fund and the political action committee Planned Parenthood Votes, have said they intend to spend more than $18 million on 2014 races, including the $2.4 million spent to help defeat Ken Cuccinelli, the pro-life Republican candidate for Virginia in 2013.
Gov. Terry McAuliffe, a Democrat who supports legal abortion, credited Planned Parenthood as a “key partner” in his campaign for governor. He said the group provided “essential support” for his campaign.
The abortion provider’s monetary goals are significantly higher than in previous years. In the 2012 elections, its political spending reached $12 million, mainly through its action fund and through Planned Parenthood Votes, Politico reports. In the 2010 midterm elections, its action fund spent $4.2 million.
Marjorie Dannenfelser, head of the pro-life Susan B. Anthony List, told Politico that the funding announcement shows the need for action.
“We cannot afford another election cycle of crouching in a fetal position and hoping the attacks go away,” she said.
Kellyanne Conway, a Republican pollster who has criticized the Republican Party’s failure to counter attacks related to abortion, told Politico that the party has been ignoring the issue.
She said Planned Parenthood has succeeded politically in part because Republicans do not defend their views and do not hold Democrats accountable for their opposition to popular legal limitations on abortion.

What else is new? The devil and his minions will stop at nothing, and will do all in their satanic power to increase immorality. Since Adam and Eve, there has been a constant struggle between good and evil, between God and the devil; we humans are involved as well, because we have a free will. Birth control, abortion, and ‘unnatural acts’ are the main tools the devil is using in his war against God and life. How tragic that most Church leaders do not see this, and remain silent. They must support pro-life candidates and preach the value of each human life. Unfortunately, many bishops and pastors are still backing the pro-death candidates, and are urging their congregations to do the same. Good has become evil, and evil has become good.
Father,
Thanks to some generous donors, we will have two bannes showing Arch. Gomez chumming it up with pro-abortion, pro-sodomite Demoncrat politicians with appropriate wording at the upcoming, next week, REC.
Pray that we are able to reach many of the innocent people who go to this heresy infested Congress because their “bishops” approve.
I will be on Michael Voris’s Church Militant tv and Mic’d up next Wednesday, March 12 at 8:00 PM EST to further expose this cancerous sore in the side of the Church, and we will display the banner then.
May God have mercy on an amoral Amerika!
Viva Cristo Rey!
God bless, yours in Their Hearts,
Kenneth M. Fisher

Abortion is evil and it is murder.
Quoted from The Imitation of Christ by Thomas A Kempis:
“What need have we to be concerned with inessentials? He to whom the Eternal Word (who is Jesus) speaks is freed of useless opinions. From the Word of all things, proceed and all creation cries out that He is God – the same Who is the Beginning Who speaks to us. No one can understand the truth nor make right judgements without Him. Only those to whom all things are One, who draw all things to One and who see all things in One, may be strong in heart and rest peacefully in God. “
Show your pro life support by participating in 40 Days for Life. PP gets millions of tax payer money and yet they have millions to spend on campaign donations. Our political system is so messed up. We are forced to support abortion clinics and then we are forced to support politicians who support abortion.
What an incestuous process. Planned Baby Killers receives the majority of its operations and maintenance funds annually from the Federal Government courtesy of the Demoncrat controlled executive and legistlative branches. Then Planned Baby Killers contribute enormous amounts of your tax payer funds to pay for democrats election campaigns.
A year or so ago, P.P. had a haul of over $500,000,000 million dollars, courtesy of the U.S. TAXPAYER ! This is outrageous and atrocious, as are so many things that go on in American life today. But when will the average Catholic Schlub ever hear of this during a homily from the Priests at Sunday Mass or even weekday Masses? Hardly ever, except when Life Masses every year celebrate being “pro-life” and the show is on to make the pewsitters feel “good” about themselves for contributing and going to a Pro-Life breakfast or somesuch. Meanwhile, the real heroes of American life today, the prayer warriors who travel to the front lines and counsel the women coming to kill maybe their first offspring @ P.P. facilities and their ilk are hardly ever mentioned during the said homilies. And so the carnage goes on and on, further gutting and subverting the “American” way of life, and it doesn’t seem to get better EXCEPT in the increasingly closed P.P. facilities that Operation Rescue and some other groups, 40 Fays For Life, seem to effectuate. Never hear of these successes either through the homilies, etc. But there’s some glimmer of hope to be had, maybe the ’14 elections will help to change much of it. God bless, Markrite
I must comment on the two HUMAN MONSTERS shown in the photograph accompanying this article. These two have played a gigantic part in the subverting and undermining of American life through first, the Clinton administration of ’92-98 AND their now respective services on behalf of the Demoncratic Party that must be held to account someday in its notorious and odious role of POISONING American life through their stated plank of supporting and encouraging two abominations; legalized killing of innocent humans, cruelty personified, AND supporting “gay” marriage, which is in reality, legalizing sodomy, which DID bring on a certain destruction of two infamous cities in the Old Testament. (not the legalization of it, the utter depravity of sodomy, even to the extent of the perpetrators trying to attack angels) America is in many ways getting what it deserves through its Obamanaization of multiple evils. God help us. God Bless all, Markrite
One observation that I have is that we are all missing the mark here. We can, I believe, stipulate that most people who comment on this site find abortion to be evil. That said, what are you going to do about it? Saying nasty things about the supporters of abortion doesn’t help. Going after the bishops doesn’t help much. Most people in this country believe that abortion is not evil and that it is a basic right that women have to control their own bodies. You/we may not agree with that, but it is now part of the cultural landscape. It took a long time with a lot of work and money to achieve that level of acceptance. The only way to overcome that set of beliefs, if it can ever be overcome, is by mounting a $200mm/year campaign for the next twenty years to change the mind of the press, politicians, book authors, etc. Parading outside Planned Parenthood with pictures of dead children and handing out brochures may save a few lives (and that is very good), but it won’t change a national culture.
The only consolation that I have is I know God is all good and just. He is all of us and not a second goes by that He doesn’t see us or know our intentions whether they be good or evil. That includes His watching a subset of human life, our politicians and their executive body of Planned Baby Killers. God knows what is in their cold blind hearts, their evil intentions, and someday in His time, He will settle the score and judge them justily with eternal ramifications for their perpetuating their evil killing agenda of the most innocent of souls, our infant children. The murderers are killing what God has lovingly created out of nothing! Anyone dare care to say that doesn’t offend God grievously? Pray the holy rosary devotedly, humbly, and fervently that all this killing will stop. Prayer is more powerful than any other actions, and is the best thing we can do. With enough love and faith in God, we can move mountains. Besides don’t be of the world, rather be closer to God as the world’s morality augers in.
