Madoff debacle hurts Planned Parenthood

January 12, 2009 by 7 Comments

According to this report, the Picower Foundation, a $1 billion Florida foundation devoted to supporting “reproductive rights,” has gone under, shutting down completely because its investments were in Bernard Madoff’s ponzi scheme. The foundation was a prime funder of Planned Parenthood. So now Planned Parenthood, the nation’s largest abortion provider, is having to lay off 20% of its employees!

    Couldn’t happen to a nicer group.

    Dr. Veith, one of these days, I need to send you a photo of a billboard shared by two diametrically opposed groups. This billboard is situated about a mile from my home and reads on one side: “New Life Community Church”. The other half? “Planned Parenthood of Palm Beach County”.
