I've been one of several pot stirrers today regarding the closing of ALL seven Planned Parenthood locations in my hometown. I'm pleased to have gained a top perch at one point and also to be part of the force applying pressure so we can find out just what in hell happened. You can read my bit here: http://newspapertree.com/opinion/4011-so-planned-parenthood-closed-what-s-the-back-up-plan
I would have, of course, preferred that the closures had never happened at all. It's a damn dark day. Planned Parenthood's been operating in El Paso since 1937. You wouldn't believe the disgusting press it's getting among certain circles. How's this for a quote?
“We expect many more closures in the days to come, as people become aware of Planned Parenthood’s sex-crazed birth control and abortion business,” said Rita Diller, director of American Life League’s STOP Planned Parenthood project.
You can see more of the insanity here.
I've contacted the national office for comment, but so far not a peep beyond regurgitating the press release on the Planned Parenthood Facebook page. Maybe someone would like to go post to their wall and politely pressure them for some info? Hint, hint.
