Frothing-at-the-mouth fundies go WAY off the deep end to attack Planned Parenthood


The Religious Right's Absurd New Ploy to Defund Planned Parenthood: Tie PP to OWS


Earlier this month, Life News posted a story with this headline: "Planned Parenthood Teams Up With Occupy Wall St. Movement."

This will certainly strike fear in the hearts of the Life News readership. Planned Parenthood plus anarchist hippies can mean only one thing – de-fund Planned Parenthood redux.

This from the article:

Yesterday Planned Parenthood, the nation’s largest abortion provider, joined a coalition of left-wing groups in Florida to protest pro-life Republican Governor Rick Scott and to show support for the larger Occupy Wall Street movement taking place nationwide. The Occupy Wall Street movement has become the subject of public skepticism after numerous well-documented cases of anti-Semitism, sexual assault, drug abuse, public masturbation, public defecation, vandalism and violence. Among the movement’s supporters and sponsors are the Communist Party USA, the American Nazi Party, Socialist Party USA, Industrial Workers of the World, International Bolshevik Tendency, Marxist Student Union, 9/11 Truth groups and more.


The author, Andrew Bair, seems to be hitting on all anti-choice cylinders here, utilizing the following religious right dog whistles: Nazi Party, Anti-Semitism, Socialist, Bolshevik, Marxist, and my personal favorite; public masturbation. ........(more)

3. Public masturbation?
These people are lunatics. I've yet to see anyone endorsing public masturbation, but I'll be sure to speak up about it if I hear anything.

On second thought, however, maybe they really do see it as a problem, since all of these little fundamentalists gatherings seem to be nothing but circle jerks for nut cases. Nobody with sense takes them seriously.

Public masturbation. LMAO.

5. Funny that they are sooo unaware of projecting their own fantasies into discourse, including their
repeated explicit references to homosexual activities and, now, public masturbation too.

You'd think they'd be embarrassed to be so transparent.

8. But then, OTH, they probably do all of that on purpose, to get their mobs stirred-up for whatever
idolatry they are selling.

9. "Whatever idolatry they are selling"
Precisely. It would be one thing if they actually acted like Christians, you know, with the judge not or you shall be judged and love thy neighbor, but since they don't seem to espouse anything close to what Jesus preached, idolatry is the only thing you can really call it.

10. Yep. Basic brainwashing = associate stimulus with an event of somesort, reaction becomes more
generalized to whatever the event message is.

Probably also meant as at least an indirect attack upon liberals, especially a liberal MALE such as George Clooney who said something about masturbation in this month's Rolling Stone.
