Backwards Bob pledges to defund Planned Parenthood if elected!

It was only a matter of time.  Backwards Bob McDonnell has been masquerading as a moderate throughout this campaign.  But now with the polls showing him ahead, McDonnell is revealing his true agenda.

Speaking to conservative radio host Laura Ingraham, McDonnell was asked, “Can you promise that as Governor you’ll use the veto pen to ensure that Virginians’ tax dollars are not used to fund Planned Parenthood or abortion?”  McDonnell responded by saying, “Yeah, I’ve said that I would do that…that’ll be part of what we’ll get done.”

McDonnell’s plan to defund Planned Parenthood is an attack on basic, preventative health care. If Planned Parenthood were defunded, tens of thousands of women and families would lose access to prevention services, including pap smears, cancer screenings, gynecological exams, family planning counseling and services, HIV and sexually transmitted infection testing and treatment and a host of community education programs emphasizing healthy relationships and lifestyles. Furthermore, McDonnell’s statement is factually inaccurate; no state funding goes to the provision of abortion-related services. In 2008 and 2009, an amendment to defund Planned Parenthood was defeated.

This is just one of the many reasons why we can't let Backward Bob McDonnell become Governor.
