Planned Pedofilic Parenthood

One possible definition of extremism is the infamy of what a person or group will defend in order to protect and advance their cause.

Planned Parenthood has reached that threshold with this NRO story.

Can you say “perverse”? Planned Parenthood in Indiana and Kansas is effectively fighting to protect child rapists from potential prosecution in two high-profile legal fights. That an organization devoted to the interests of women finds itself in this position is a cautionary tale of abortion-rights extremism.

Let's pause a moment and let that graf sink in. And to make any mad dashes any of you may need to make to the bathroom for scatalogical purposes.

Alrighty, then. Let's continue.

In Indiana, the attorney general is seeking the records of girls under the age of 14 who have visited Planned Parenthood clinics. Let that sink in [again]: We’re talking about 12- and 13-year- old girls. It is a crime to have sex with a child under 14 in the state. Under law, individuals with reason to believe a child is a victim of sex abuse are required to report it to the proper authorities. In Kansas, the attorney general is carrying on the same fight (he is also looking for evidence of illegal late-term abortions).

Understand that Planned Parenthood is resisting this initiative, which is designed and intended to protect young girls from sexual exploitation and victimization, on essentially the same "right to privacy" grounds as Roe v. Wade. One would think that feminists, above all, would be the biggest proponents of such a policy. Sheesh, isn't that the raison d'etere of "sexual harassment" and "violence against women" dogma?

Logically, it is. But logic has little to do with feminism anymore, if it ever did. The only thing that matters to the PPers is that as many unborn children as possible get slaughtered in the womb. And with more and more women turning against abortion on demand, the abortuary industry is ever more dependent upon younger and younger girls who "get in trouble" or are simply used by predatory men.

Says Rich Lowry:

These feminists are unwilling to pass judgment on any sex in any circumstances, don’t care if parents are cut out of the equation entirely, believe the right to an abortion trumps any other consideration, and embrace a notion of privacy so sweeping it includes men who have, under law, raped their young sexual partners.

If only Michael Jackson were interested in girls instead of boys, he might, in the right circumstances, have a friend in Planned Parenthood.

Ouch. Let's add another!

My, but the ancient worshipers of Molech would be proud.

Nothing like a good moral double-play, I always say.
