Don't mess with Big Abortion

Mark Steyn: Komen is free to give its money to whomever it wishes, isn't it? Dream on. Liberals take the same view as the proprietors of the Dar al-Islam: Once they hold this land, they hold it forever. . . .

Congratulations! Planned Parenthood certainly raised Nancy [Brinker]'s awareness. I wonder what color ribbon that comes with? Black and blue?

. . . A prudent observer would conclude that the best way to avoid being crowbarred by Cecile Richards is never to get mixed up with her organization in the first place.

It's not like she needs the money. Komen's 2010 donation of $580,000 is less than Ms. Richards' salary and benefits. . . . [I]f you're that eager to run over poor women on the way to the bank, I'd recommend a gig with Planned Parenthood: the average salary of the top eight executives is $270,000, which makes them officially part of what the Obama administration calls "the one percent." In America today, few activities are as profitable as a "nonprofit." Planned Parenthood receives almost half a billion dollars – or about 50 percent of its revenues – in taxpayer funding.

A billion dollars seems a lot, even for 322,000 abortions a year. But it enables Planned Parenthood to function as a political heavyweight.

Editor: As I tagged this post "Pro-Death, Fundraising" it occurred to me this whole episode is a lesson in how NOT to do fundraising. Where's the grace, Planned Parenthood? Where's the gratitude? By their fruits ye shall know them.
