Woman on Hardball claims Planned Parenthood has quotas each month for abortions

[GreatCaesarsGhost]

Abby Johnson was her name I think.

[Vinca]

1. Did anyone tell her she's lying? They should have.

[GreatCaesarsGhost]

3. Tweety called her on her claim that PP didn't do prenatal care.

She denied that they do.

ETA No they didn't call her on the quota BS.

6. +1, that's all they have is bold faced ass'd lies... she lied with a straight face

[LisaM]

2. That quota meme is as old as the hills.

When I was in CCD many moons ago, they showed us an unintentionally hilarious film strip about the evils of abortion. It was old, the sound wasn't synched up, everyone was snickering at it. But the deep voice (which was also coming out toooo slooooowwllly on the tape) insisted that there were quotas for abortion that clinics had to meet. (It concluded by showing what it said was "a day's work", a wastebasket full of what it claimed were aborted babies, but that's another topic).

11. CCD Confraternity of Christian Doctrine, right? (eom)

[LisaM]

14. Yep, though we just called them Confirmation Classes.

The name (or at least the name we knew it by) changed sometime between my First Communion and Confirmation. I think they made us go watch it with the kids who went to the Catholic school. Luckily our family is sane, and my mother didn't worry about my being brainwashed. Pretty sure I came home and mimicked it.

[Ligyron]

17. Excuse me but I thought one had to be confirmed to recieve communion?

Maybe I'm wrong it's hard to remember.

[eleny]

18. Communin around age 7, Confirmation around 12 yrs old

Catholic Church in the 1950s, anyway.

[Ligyron]

19. Guess I'm thinking of the Episcopal Church.

thanks.

[LisaM]

22. Yes.

Exactly. It was like that in the 70s too.

4. I saw her

Said she was a previous director of Planned Parenthood or a Planned Parenthood.

Quotas??? I have a very hard time believing that. For an organization that has been under fire for decades would have something like that. Me thinks she's full of shit. She also said PP offers no prenatal care. As I was looking on their website seeing the service of prenatal care Tweety interrupted that one of his staff said that they do. Her response - "they say they do on their website but no clinic offers prenatal care" Is she just another lying christian conservative.

[marybourg]

7. Are you really asking that? nt

[meadowlark5]

8. Ha! No, the minute she said quotas - any credibility she might have tried to convey

went right out the window.

Lying is just second nature to republicans and conservatives.

[Cha]

5. Did tweety set her Lying fAke News Straight?

[brush]

13. He was totally unprepared to challenge her on anything. He finally got thru his earpiece that PPH...

does offer prenatal care.

Seems Matthews would have done some research on PPH since this anti-abortion woman was coming on.

Where was Joy Reid when we needed her.

[Cha]

23. Thanks, brush! tweety such a waste a lot of times.

I hear via DU from tv land.

[procon]

9. They are using a new gotcha video composite as their latest "alternate fact" source.

Its already been snoped, but no one in that lifer group bothers with anything that doesn't match their theocracy.

[DFW]

10. Poor Cecile

She'd have to clone herself 50 times over to be there for every "interview" where some swamp rot from the radical right goes on and lies through their teeth like that about PP.

[StevieM]

12. I saw her. I was disgusted. She is a liar. (eom)

[Generator]

15. Chris Matthew is a traitor to Democrats

and America. He give liars and propagandists a forum. The one thing I was happy about when scumbag "won' was hey I never have to turn on that shit again. BASTA!

[dalton99a]

21. He's probably still disappointed that they never put W on Mount Rushmore.

[spanone]

16. lies seem to work these days. look at the president.

the abortion deniers have lied about planned parenthood for years and years.

[roamer65]

20. Utter lie.

The goal of Planned Parenthood is to make an abortion a procedure of "last resort". By providing adequate birth control education and tools, the need for abortion is significantly reduced.

These people simply want more white babies, it's all about racism.
