Crisis Pregnancy Centers: Your Tax Dollars Allow Them To Lie To Women


Look, I have no problem with women who choose to have babies. After 8 years of marriage, my husband and I chose to have one. She's terrific!

I do, however, have a serious problem with tax dollars funding these so-called "Crisis Pregnancy Centers." First of all, the name screams, "We're here to help you deal with an unwanted pregnancy. Trust us!" Then, they proceed to browbeat women into keeping their babies or handing them over to the oh, so lucrative adoption biz.

Today's Washington Post beats around the abortion bush, as usual:

States React to Crisis Pregnancy Centers

ASTORIA, Ore. -- Ninety miles and a mountain range away from the nearest abortion provider, pregnant women stream into a tidy storefront here where they receive free pregnancy tests, baby clothes, diapers and warnings about the alleged dangers of abortion.

At similar pregnancy resource centers in small towns and big cities nationwide, volunteers who believe abortion is murder advise women that the procedure has been linked to breast cancer and infertility.

Crisis pregnancy centers say states should not get involved.

"The state should not be in a position to put pressure on one industry's competitor," said Diane Fell, the executive director of Astoria's Door of Hope. "We are competitors for Planned Parenthood. It's like Coke saying to Pepsi, 'You can't be on my block, go away.'"

Coke v Pepsi?

That's a hard sell for any medically-associated business, don't you think?

What a crock! Lies v Basic Medical Information...

And you're paying for it.
