I reported 3 weeks ago that Planned Parenthood CEO Cecile Richards is planning to help Planned Parenthood of East Central Iowa celebrate its 30th anniversary.
Richards is scheduled to keynote PPECI's celebration dinner on May 20 at the Cedar Rapids Marriott.
Yesterday Eric Scheidler of Pro-Life Action League announced his group is joining forces with IA pro-life groups beginning at 4p that day for a rally, press conference, and protest outside the Marriott. Pro-lifers are also asked to contribute to a parking lot baby shower....
See details at PLAL's site. If you live in the 2-3 hour vicinity, please plan to attend. Eric wrote:
It's no wonder that Richards is eager to visit IA. PP is desperate to legitimize their abortion business. They want to make abortion as American as apple pie, hiding it behind words like "choice" and "planning" and "empowerment."
But we're not going to let that happen.
Nope.

Hey I'm glad to see that someone picked up on the idea of holding a baby shower collection, for mothers in need, at pro-life protests and events :)

"Planning is power"!
They mean "KILLING is power"... to PRO-ABORTS, anyway.
Or how about "Feticide is Power!" I mean isn't that their message, that women can't become sucessful in careers and education without abortion?

i invite everyone who can to come & join us so we can give her the welcome she deserves. Check out Eric's letter for details.
PPECI just closed 1 of its 3 locations. & neither the CR or DBQ sites currently offer abortions, just referals. Now we need to close the other 2 as well.
Posted by: Al at May 12, 2010 9:32 PMPretty much in time for my 30th birthday PP celebrates 30 years of death as I celebrate 30 years of life...well technically, 30 years, and 9 months. I did get to enjoy the last 3 months of the 70's growing inside my mother.
In honor of the life my mom allowed me to keep I will make a donation to my local pregnancy center.
