Donate to Planned Parenthood in Sarah Palin's name!

[JuniperLea]

Dear Friends,

We may have thought we wanted a woman on a national
political ticket, but the joke has really been on us,
hasn't it? Are you as sick in your stomach as I am at
the thought of Sarah Palin as Vice President of the United States?

Since Palin gave her speech accepting the
Republican nomination for the Vice Presidency, Barack
Obama's campaign has raised over $10 million dollars.

Some of you may already be supporting the Obama campaign
financially -- but want to do more -- anything. I
am horrified by Palin's selection, furious, and
frightened by it for many reasons, one of which is her
position on women's issues. May I pass along the
following fiendishly brilliant idea?

Make a donation to Planned Parenthood. Of any
amount, in Sarah Palin's name. Here's the best
part: when you make a donation to PP in her name,
they'll send her a card telling her that the donation
has been made in her honor. It won't change the
election but it will support an important organization and
it will make women's voices heard. (And even if this
was cooked up by a PP person -- I don't care!)

Here's the link to the Planned Parenthood website:

http://www.plannedparenthood.org


You'll need to check "make honorary or
memorial gift," and fill in the name of the person you
want to "honor," i.e. Palin. Fill in the address to let PP
know where to send the "in Sarah Palin's
honor" card. If you use the address for the McCain
campaign headquarters, they'll get the message.

McCain's headquarters address:

McCain for President
1235 S. Clark Street
1st Floor
Arlington, VA 22202

Please free to send this along to all your women --
and men friends and urge them to do the same.
