Here's today's Washington Watch Daily commentary from FRC Radio:
Planned Parenthood is working the phones, all right. As part of the group’s desperate push for money, they’ve introduced a new service: Planned Parenthood Wireless. This cell phone coverage would donate 10% of the monthly charges to the biggest abortion provider in America. Their email says that proceeds would help give women medically accurate information. But if people believe that, what they need isn’t a cell phone service, but a wake up call! Planned Parenthood has always cared more about protecting its profits than protecting women. Maybe that’s why the country is more skeptical about giving them money. A Zogby poll found that 68% of voters think that federal funds shouldn’t go toward abortion—and that includes money funneled to groups like Planned Parenthood. No wonder they’re looking for a better reception from cell phone users. Obviously, they don’t get the message that the country has serious concerns about their motives. But as support keeps dropping, Americans will be saying—as the commercial goes—can you hear us now?
