Planned Parenthood’s Cecile Richards named one of Time’s 100 most influential people
Cecile is a tenacious organizer, talented at both inside maneuvering and outside mobilization. She always wins. She leads with diplomacy and makes her case with facts, not hyperbole. That’s what I saw when she served as my deputy chief of staff; that’s what the nation sees as she leads Planned Parenthood.
~U.S. House Minority Leader Nancy Pelosi praising Planned Parenthood CEO Cecile Richards for the 2011 TIME 100 Most Influential People In the World, Time.com, April 21



If Cecile led with the facts, she would be serving life in prison.
Hmmm…well if she trained/ worked under Pelosi…we know the tree by its fruits…
Nancy “You’ll have to pass the bill to find out what’s in it” Pelosi has absolutely zero credibility, about the same amount Time has with it’s bogus “leaders” lists.
I’ve long ago stopped reading Time magazine, however, I’m considering opening it up to find out who is still advertising in there, so I can avoid their products.
Can you say, “Mammograms”, Cecile?
Most influential people… doesn’t mean they have to have a good influence on society, does it now?
Influential? I’d say. Like Genghis Khan or Pol Pot were influential. And I don’t mean the new ‘green’ version of GK.
No, Nancy, the picture you paint is NOT what the nation sees when looking at a head in the child-killing industry. I see a very deceived woman with more innocent blood on her hands than a mind can even begin to imagine. Birds of a feather…
As if being “influential” had any merit on its own.
What truly matters is if you being influential for the Kingdom of God. Have you made room in your heart for Jesus? Does He bless you and love you so that you can be a blessing to others?
Are you the salt of the earth? The light of the world? What are you doing to help God in His great work of rescuing sighing, crying, dying humanity?
Or are you a lost, blind, deceived prisoner of satan? To what degree has he deceived you into doing his work of stealing, killing and destroying people’s lives and eternal destinies?
Sadly, Cecile is very influential for the kingdom of darkness. She is totally deceived and complicit in the murder of literally millions of innocent children. She is one of the devil’s prize pawns.
But Jesus loves her and would forgive her if she would only repent.
Not that I’m any better than Cecile. I just realized my sinful condition and God’s Love broke through my darkness.
He is so worthy of all our praise, worship and devotion.
On this Good Friday, we commemorate the day that Jesus gave his life for us so we might live eternally with Him. If you are so inclined, please pray for the conversion of heart and mind of all abortion industry workers and politicians. God bless.
Lord, please convert the hearts of people like her, including her. Lord, please help me not to feel nauseous when I see her photograph. I don’t feel anything nice for people who not only make their money killing children, nor for their friends and politicians, though you told us to forgive 7 times 70, even 70 times 70. Help us forgive 7 times 53 million.
Lord, help us all during this very special time when we commemorate your death and resurrection. We ask this in Jesus’ name, Amen.
Compare the countenance between Jill’s photo and Cecile’s photo. God’s saving work in Jill’s life makes ALL the difference – and in any true believer!
Many great points in this thread, especially to pray for the lost who are pro-abortion.

TIME Magazine named Adolf Hitler as their “Person of the Century.” Clearly, because of his impact, and not because of his popularity.
On the other hand, TIME did not ask a modern neo-nazi fanboy to write such a glowing review as Cecile Richards is enjoying.
Mark this as one more reason why nobody reads TIME Magazine anymore.
Goodness – who knew?
This morning we have escorts bringing people in for their abortion appointments for the first time. They are doing a $2.3 renovation of their building, and there is a fence blocking off half the parking lot, so the clients have to walk down the sidewalk to reach the other entrance on the other side of the building.
Talk about leading people to sin, death and ruin. For sure. We were are normal cheerful selves, though – even though it was pouring this morning. For the first time their employees experienced the weather – climate and otherwise – on the sidewalk.
Keep praying folks. As my church secretary stated – if we were not doing a good job, they would not have felt they needed to help their clients in the building. Their escorts were so cold, they were rude to the normal passers-by and ignored everyone who was not a money-paying client. The fellow we were talking to noticed that right away. he was happy to say hello to us and have a conversation. Can’t take away reality.
;)
Makes her case with “facts”? Really? In what universe, Ms. Pelosi?
I second that Amen, Ninek.
And on this day of Good Friday – have mercy on all us sinners Lord. We trust in you.
And Lord while your having mercy on us please have mercy on the unborn too and if you see fit to do a little chastising gently of course I think my depression would get better. It’s kind of hard for me to get excited about a country that kills it’s unborn and usurps parental authority without batting their eyes. Please do Lord what needs to be done so that those who sit in high places will remember themselves to be just men or in this case women.
Poor Cecile. She can’t help it. She was born from that silver-haired friend of Sarah Weddington.
Again, we need something to take Planned Parenthood’s place, specifically a Planned PREGNANCY organization that will decrease abortion by decreasing problem pregnancies.
I’m no fan of her or what she advocates for, but she does look beautiful in this picture. But did anyone else notice, Cecile looks…distracted in this photo. Just an observation.
“She … makes her case with facts, not hyperbole.”
When I first read this, I was like who in their right mind would be so delusional as to think that Cecile argues using facts and not hyperbole? Then I saw that it was Pelosi. Ah, that makes perfect sense.
On the other hand, when I showed Hubby the picture of her and told him who she is, pro-life and no fan of PP (but usually more quiet than I on the issue) he commented “where’s the devil horns and…” I finished his sentence, “tail?” I was taken a bit back, but then laughed and told him we have a commenter or two here, who’s good at Photoshop and we ought to suggest that and let them have at it ;-) Just kidding! But it wouldn’t be any worse than some of the creative insults we’ve faced over the years :-P
TIME mag took alot of closeup pics of their featured Influential 100. Most of them were quite unflattering. You should see what Chris Christie’s looked like.
I’d say Cecile looked better than some of her fellow winners.
Hi Carder,
That less than flattering shot of Chris Christie was likely very deliberate and of course Richards would be made to look like a runway model.
