Rick Santorum needs some attention! Say something ridiculous and offensive, Rick! "Well, look at -- and I know they dispute this -- certainly a lot of evidence that the location of their clinics happen to be in places, historically places, where there are high concentrations of minorities, for example." Sure, that will work! Just say pretty much anything crazy about Planned Parenthood to reporters and it will become a thing. "Planned Parenthood likes to test women for HIV so their friends the space aliens from the sky know which women will taste better when they fly down to eat humans," he could have said. But then again, implying racist blood thirst is more fun.
The placement of clinics and the targeted advertising may be a vestige of what Santorum called Planned Parenthood's "horrific origins," but he said much of the "poisonous" nature of the organization has remained even as it has claimed to, he said, "transform over time."
The real crime here is that nobody takes the fetus home and poses for photos with it when it dies.
Has Rick Santorum ever been to "historically places" with "high concentrations of minorities"? No. But he knows what goes on there, in his heart, because he loves babies. And that is why he's running to be president of abortion. [ TPM ]
Remember how well that stunt worked out for Gov. Dukakis?
My favorite joke: "Donald Trump owns the Miss USA pageant, which is great for Republicans because it will streamline their search for vice president."
