<<Defunding planned parenthood isn't taking anything away from women. >>

Not what women think.

When the Susan B. Korman breast cancer organization (largest one I think?) hired a right winger who convinced them to defund planned parenthood, the outcry from women, coast to coast, was so strong they reversed their decision in 24 hours!! and the right winger had to resign.

Since then that organization has collapsed and everyone has resigned and they are persona non grata. My organization gave thousands of dollars to it. I gave a $1,000 myself and now we are supporting a new organization that funds planned parenthood.

You right wing men CANNOT tell women what they can and cannot do any more. And if the Republican party continues to think they can hide and watch. You will lose them along with the blacks, hispanics and young.

PS universities are now graduating women 60/40 over men and more female lawyers and docs than men.
