It's hard to take a source seriously when it says in big bold letters, "Politicus USA. Real Liberal Politics."

Not exactly an unbiased source there.

No, it's not at all crazy, unless you have some evidence that Fed dollars are going to pay for abortions.


If you want to say "Well, Fed dollars kinda, sorta, enable abortions at PP to happen at a higher rate, a little bit", you could make that argument, but it would still be pretty flimsy.


That's not the claim that was made, and that I responded to, however.

Firstly Abortion is legal since 1973.

Secondly it is sound public policy to allow women who want to abort their pregnancies to do so.

Better Federal dollars go towards abortion or birth control than for medical expenses, incarceration or welfare.

If someone is against abortion then please help young poor (often minority) women to make smart choices - this means better secondary education and above all better sex education along with readily available birth control.

What on earth does Travis County have to do with a Harris County grand jury?

Please present your reason for thinking that any official involved with the Harris County grand jury is pro-choice.

My take on the situation was that the Harris County DA who asked the grand jury to indict PP was both surprised and upset by the grand jury's actions.
