Because PP held a gun to their head and made them, right? Couldn't be that those 20m women voluntarily walked into the clinic and asked for the abortion under their own free will? Oh yeah, one more thing...better blame the actual political party that is responsible for Roe V Wade. 5 of the 7 judges who voted for it were appointed by REPUBLICAN presidents (the other two for it were appointed by Dems) and the 2 dissenters were politically split R/D. So, it was actually the Republican party that, in your words, "made Robert Byrd and David Duke proud".

it's not a dishonest statement bc he still has two years left in his term and no one can predict what will happen tomorrow much less 2 years from now. If a baseball player starts off the first 10 games of the season hitting .750, do we expect him to keep that pace for the rest of the season? Same goes for Obama's "pace"...

1. This was directed at someone who is not you 2. How do you know that you have greater personal knowledge and experience than me? 3. The numbers are easily available to get ahold of and are correct (came straight from the CDC) 4. As I stated before, I'm not "hating or blaming", just noting that Bush was not perfect either, Maybe you meant to reply to my post below where I called out the author on some issues I had with her piece, which, as an American, I have the right to do; I'm merely stating that instead of blaming PP, Obama or Houdini, put the blame of the disproportionate usage of PP by blacks where it belongs.

I wasn't attacking Bush to defend Obama, I was just merely showing that he wasn't perfect either and he made some careless choices during his tenure as well...some of which precipitated what Obama has to now clean up. I don't agree with Obama on everything but I feel that people are too quick to jump on his case to try and fix in 2 years what took Bush 8 years to create.

Totally disagree...slavery, by its definition, is FORCED servitude and aside from rape/incest, no one FORCES people (BLACK or WHITE) to have sex, get pregnant or get an abortion. Likening planned parenthood to slavery is irresponsible...if the author wanted to debate whether federally funding abortion is right or not is one thing but comparing PP to a slave owning plantationer is very misguided. In fact, her info is plain wrong on what race the "victims of PP abortion machine" are...in 2006 (most recent I cld find) 681k abortions were perf on whites, 464k on AfAm and 97k on other. Even using the word "victim" conotates PP forcing abortion on their clients but its a choice the client makes on their own.
