Planned Parenthood of Idaho officials apologized Wednesday for what they called an employee's "serious mistake" in encouraging a donation aimed at aborting black babies.
They also criticized The Advocate, a right-to-life student magazine at the University of California-Los Angeles, for trying to discredit Planned Parenthood employees in seven states in a series of tape-recorded phone calls last summer.

The call to Idaho came in July to Autumn Kersey, vice president of development and marketing for Planned Parenthood of Idaho.

On the recording provided by The Advocate, an actor portraying a donor said he wanted his money used to eliminate black unborn children because "the less black kids out there the better."

Kersey laughed nervously and said: "Understandable, understandable. ... Excuse my hesitation, this is the first time I've had a donor call and make this kind of request, so I'm excited and want to make sure I don't leave anything out."More (http://www.idahostatesman.com/newsupdates/story/308723.html)

Isn't all of this basically what Margaret Sanger (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Margaret_Sanger) advocated?

The (un)Planned (un)Parenthood hasn't even bothered firing this employee yet, and there's supposedly more tapes like this to come.

And, yes, they're still upholding the Sanger legacy of eugenics:


Donor: OK, so the abortion -I can give money specifically for a black baby, that would be the purpose.

Kersey: Absolutely. If you wanted to designate that you wanted your gift to be used to help (an) African-American woman in need, then we would certainly make sure that that gift was earmarked specifically for that purpose.


Weeds, "Autumn" here should've known something up when the donor said the word "baby".:rolleyes:

Well, for the first time ever, PP's profits are expected to break the 1,000,000,000 mark - there's a reference to your OP in here:



A new annual report from Planned Parenthood shows the nation's largest abortion business has made over $1 billion in profit for the first time in its history. The non-profit pro-abortion group shows the historical gain in its new annual report covering 2006-2007.

While Planned Parenthood made $972 milion in its 2005-2006 annual report, last fiscal year it brought in $1.017 billion
