In a\u00a0Wednesday interview with CBS This Morning<\/a><\/em>, Planned Parenthood president Cecile Richards\u00a0argued against\u00a0moves to defund the abortion business, labeling such actions as “war on women’s health care.” (Click\u00a0link for video.)<\/p>\n

Oddly, just moments later, she complained, “We are the only organization that has been singled out by the Congress.” Even if Richards were correct in saying that Planned Parenthood is being singled out, she seems to be at a loss as to\u00a0why people may view Planned Parenthood as not deserving of taxpayer dollars. Let’s help her out.<\/p>\n

1. Dishonest Care<\/strong><\/p>\n

Earlier this year, Live Action caught Planned Parenthood in a clear case of misrepresentation of services provided<\/a>. Despite blatantly advertising prenatal care, a large percentage of Planned Parenthood locations admitted they did not offer such care, with some employees even saying that no Planned Parenthood location provides prenatal care. Shortly thereafter, multiple Planned Parenthood locations removed prenatal care from their advertised services.<\/p>\n
