CNS News<\/a> posted a story today about a statement made by Vice-President Joe Biden in a speech at the University of Wisconsin-LaCrosse on Friday. The article reports that the Vice-President stated that Planned Parenthood<\/a> \u201cunder law cannot perform any abortion.\u201d<\/p>\n

The article then states:<\/p>\n

Planned Parenthood itself has published fact sheets indicating that it did 985,731 abortions<\/a> in just the three years from 2008 through 2010. These included 324,008 abortion in 2008<\/a>, 332,278 abortions in 2009<\/a>, and 329,445 abortions in 2010<\/a>.<\/strong><\/p>\n

Biden made his remark in response to former Massachusetts<\/a> Gov. Mitt Romney<\/a> position that he would defund Planned Parenthood.<\/strong><\/p>\n

\u201cAnd now these guys pledge that they are going to defund Planned Parenthood, which under law cannot perform any abortion,\u201d said Biden. \u201cYou heard it last night again.\u201d<\/strong><\/p>\n

Facts are inconvenient things.<\/p>\n

The article reports:<\/p>\n

A Congressional Research Service report<\/a> published on Aug. 28 said that the federal government gives Planned Parenthood about $66 million per year in Title X<\/a> \u201cfamily planning\u201d grants. The law prohibits recipients from using Title X money for abortion except in cases of rape, incest or to save the life of the mother. <\/strong><\/p>\n

However, there is nothing in the law to prevent these funds from paying office expenses in offices that schedule and perform abortions. Planned Parenthood, along with Public Broadcasting<\/a> are two examples of things that should be cut from the federal budget. They are not worth borrowing money from China to fund.<\/p>\n
