Remember that if you host it, you do run the risk of unprotected contact with a Planned Parenthood lawyer.

Ay ... the images running through my head.

As far as pro-lifers (such as I am) bombing abortion clinics, I always say: *I* would never bomb an abortion clinic, but who am I to say what another person should do in their situation?..."

"Remember that if you host it, you do run the risk of unprotected contact with a Planned Parenthood lawyer."

LOL! Well, as long as they promise to love me forever, they can do with me however they please!

We're also hosting it at CourtZero.org and its message board. It needs to be seen.

It's back up again at the Planned Parenthood Golden Gate site! Back on the front page.

Rae, that's a false alarm. Click the link on that Planned Parenthood site that's supposed to show the cartoon--it only takes you back to the top of the page.

You're right, Dawn, guess I jumped the gun. I thought the picture and the link had disappeared yesterday.

The "vile cartoon" as Fredi D'Alessio called it has disturbed me more than any recent item from the culture war. It is so unbelievable that my computer-savvy son was sure someone had hacked into the PPGG site and posted it. How incredible that it is (sur)real.

I love the intelligent debate used in this cartoon! Especially with the slimy-abstinence guy. He brings up STD's and the kids are like "we don't plan on getting an STD!"

WoW! So if you don't *plan* on getting an STD- you won't get one, right!? Gee- someone shoulda told Magic Johnson that.

I guess the same goes for pregnancy right??? I mean if I don't "plan" on getting pregnant it won't happen either. I think the condoms add a nice effect, showing that if more people used them, the "pro- lifers" would not exist. It would be great to have a world full of only "pro- choicers"- oh wait.... think about it.

I guess I'll be chowing down at the all-you-can-eat Chinese buffet down the street tomorrow night since I'm not planning on getting fat. You should join me. You can drive here as fast as you can and disobey red lights, since you're not planning on getting a ticket.

Holy freakin'...

I totally endorse utilizing a Parental Planning system that offers all the relevant information regardless of anyone's silly cultural superstitions. I've usually been a PPGG supporter but...

If I didn't know better (and a little research ensures that I do) I'd say that Rae's son was right. Unfortunately PPGG really put this effer out there themselves! They .. uh.. wtf??? Sheesh! They made that insane little AO gremlin look RATIONAL by comparison!

Time to write some letters to PPGG.

I've been following this debacle ever since the cartoon first appeared on these pages, and either I'm not following the news or this whole cartoon hasn't really struck a chord nationwide. I think that we need a Cartoongate...
the imagery and flat-out hypocrisy in this cartoon disturb me greatly. the PP'ers want everyone to believe that 'yeah, we want you to make a good and informed decision' but how can a person make a good and informed decision when PP is blowing up people who disagree...??? amazing.
hey Dawn, I'm hosting the vid on my site as well. there isn't a direct text link to it yet, but there will be shortly. the address is www.flamesofphoenix.com and if a PP lawyer wants to have any sort of unprotected contact with me... snicker, snicker.
