Difficult view looking up at the 1% club FreakinDJ Jan 2016 #12

Did you watch Cecile Richards when she testified in front of Congress? geek tragedy Jan 2016 #15

Yup. Very powerful testimony. Agschmid Jan 2016 #24

I love her then, but she pissed me off with this endorsement Armstead Jan 2016 #31

the right to choose is a partisan issue. geek tragedy Jan 2016 #33

Then they shouldn't be playing Crony games with Hillary FreakinDJ Jan 2016 #64

I'm saying it is not cronyism, and neither has done anything wrong. If you think for one minute that Hekate Jan 2016 #71

So you have no answer except that you are repeating RW lies. Good on ya. Hekate Jan 2016 #84

It is absolutely offensive Geek, that you have to write an Op clarifying an endorsement seabeyond Jan 2016 #10

The better approach is to donate directly to candidates who support Planned Parenthood rather than Attorney in Texas Jan 2016 #13

PP gets less than half of its revenue from the government nt geek tragedy Jan 2016 #16

Without government support, Planned Parenthood cannot go forward. This is not true of any private Attorney in Texas Jan 2016 #22

The PP PAC is not "mismanaged." It did the right thing. SunSeeker Jan 2016 #34

Not mismanaged? So you think that this is all going well for Planned Parenthood? So the PAC's Attorney in Texas Jan 2016 #43

Nope. Picking the best candidate is not mismanagement. SunSeeker Jan 2016 #48

it quite often happens that a number of Sanders supporters say such obnoxious shit that the geek tragedy Jan 2016 #36

True of almost all large groups -- there have been at least as many obnoxious posts that karynnj Jan 2016 #39

Thanks for the post stevil Jan 2016 #40
