Mmmm, I saw that article on Yahoo news a few days ago, and it looks very legit. He purposely signed that bill quietly, so that things just like the people in this threads are saying aren't thrown in his face. Planned Parenthood alone isn't affected. This is making sure that IF clinics like PP need money, they can get it. The bill isn't directing the flow of taxes, merely opening another avenue. And, as previously mentioned, almost all clinics who DO perform abortions try to convince the woman otherwise first. They tell her alternatives and people to talk to, and all the risks involved. And now he's trying to help all countries have that same sort of information. Family planning facilities also educate on safe sex and, gasp, abstinence. Bush was denying not only his own people, but those around the world access to more than just a service. Just as abstinence-only education doesn't lead to less babies, establishments that offer abortion as an option don't always USE that option. Information needs to be available to the public, because as much as I think most of this is common sense, a LOT of people still need to be told, and I'm sick of funding getting cut and voices silenced because someone doesn't like the content. I have a lot of respect for Obama is putting his name on this. It's something that most people will hear and hiss about, but once you get down to it, it's not all that bad, and really quite necessary.

Priestley zz1000zz ClaranceSH As to the comment that abortion is not a sin, I fail to see how the killing of one who is that innocent should be considered ok and justifiable. I suppose I could make a topic on abortion? Another one? xd
This way I get to use a funny title though.

Fushigi na Butterfly zz1000zz ClarenceSH Not to mention the mounting evidence of the unhealthiness of the practice both medically and mentally. This simply does not exist. I beg to differ, and I'm pretty sure the women who experience increased risks of breast cancer and who seek counseling after their abortions would agree with me, but this is a discussion for your actual abortion thread. 3nodding
I think it may have been unclear what I meant. I was not meaning to imply there are no health risks to abortions. Rather, I would disagree with two things. One, the evidence is not "mounting." The risks of abortions have been understood for over two decades, and there has been no real change in this understanding over the last decade.
Also, agreeing there are health risks is not the same as calling the practice "unhealthy."
