NARAL: Liars and Swindlers
As I’ve pointed out repeatedly, when it comes to reproductive rights, there is no worse friend than NARAL, which did not fight Alito or Roberts, and which supported all of the “pro-choice” republicans who put these two corrupt fascists on the bench.
Even now, there is literally NOTHING on NARAL’s front page about the SCOTUS decision:
If [...]

Why, look who’s crawled out from under her rock!
It’s Nancy Keenan, come to tell me that Pennsylvania gets an F when it comes to reproductive rights.
You know who else gets an F? Nancy Keenan.
It was Nancy Keenan who failed to use NARAL’s pile of money stop the confirmation of John Roberts and Samuel Alito. It [...]
Read More..>>Moral BS from NARAL
“NARAL is now in the business of giving cover to Democratic Leaders who are trying to bullshit pro-choice liberals into thinking they aren’t selling them out.
(We saw this same ploy in Connecticut earlier this year.) Apparently, it sees itself as an inside player helping the Democrats keep from having to go out on a limb [...]
Response to a Statement
“The Administration strongly supports House passage of H.R. 6099 (WARNING: PDF), which would provide information and options to pregnant mothers contemplating an abortion regarding the development of the unborn child and the capacity of the unborn child to feel pain.

[UPDATE: Welcome Firedoglakers! Come for the politics, stick around for the For Better or For Worse deconstructions!]
I’m a little late to the table regarding the new atrocity that choice sellouts NARAL are backing: the Unborn Child Pain Awareness Act, a Republican bill that “would require doctors to provide fetal pain information to women seeking [...]

Plan B, emergency contraception, was finally legalized as an OTC contraceptive for women aged 18 and over. Yet as we all know, there is a real problem with irresponsible moralists in pharmacies [...]
Raj Bhakta: Robo-Calling Scumbag
VOTERS ARE BY now accustomed to automated political-campaign calls, but many were stunned by one that hit households in Montgomery County and Northeast Philadelphia over the weekend.
The recorded voice was that of a distraught, tearful woman.
“I had an abortion performed on me,” the woman said in a shaky voice, adding that she wanted to tell [...]
Open Letter to the Bimbos at NARAL
Before any of my readers get all discombobulated that I referred to NARAL as “bimbos” let me remind you that by rndorsing Joe Lieberman, NARAL is endorsing a man who believes that Catholic hospitals in Connecticut should have the right to deny emergency contraception to rape victims, which earned him the moniker Rape Gurney Joe.

Last week NARAL sent me an “action alert” asking me to help support real sex education rather than abstinence programs.
I’ve written several times about NARAL’s failure to stand up for choice, and wrote them an immediate response.
