Just got a call from the political arm of Planned Parenthood

[woodsprite]

They told me that I was on the list because I had made donations to PP in the past. I told them I had donated their money to Bernie, but would be glad to make another donation to him in their name.

I believe the guy called me something unmentionable as I told him to "Have a nice day!".

Bouncing over to Act Blue to make that additional donation .....

1. I got another snail mail from H

yesterday. I'm mailing it back with comments on the envelope.

10. Ink out any identifying info/codes

You don't want to be on her revenge/enemies list. Win or lose, she'll be seeking revenge.

12. I'd be among the first to

get my SS cut.

2. The Powers That Be are lining up behind a certain candidate. How's that make u feel?

The powers that be that have sold us out for so long are lining up? I don't know about you, but that just makes me feel the Bern even stronger.

Not only is Bernie more likely to win in November, but he has been consistent in standing up for the things that I care about.

I believe in Planned Parenthood, but nobody from their "political arm" is going to convince me to go against Bernie. I'm with him all the way.

4. If he hadn't started out stressing that he was from the political arm,

I probably would have donated because I usually make at least a yearly donation to them, if not one, than a couple of smaller ones. I had already made a few small ($25) donations this year, and would have probably done so again. Was glad to hear him say though (and hope it's correct) that donations to the political arm and the actual service parts of PP were separate.

14. They are seperate...but money exchanges hands between the two.

Planned Parenthood Action Fund received $15,315 from Planned Parenthood. Your money could very well be getting used to support hillary.

20. That should not be

happening. Political donations are not tax deductible.

[Fawke Em]

21. Thanks for posting that!

I've been trying to find how the two exchange money because I figured they did.

And, I have told them that I don't want my money to support CorpoHill in any way, shape or form.

It saddens me they slapped half their supporters in the face and lessened the donations we would give women in need as a result. There was NO REASON to do that. They could have waited until their was a clear nominee.

3. Love it!

5. Kickin' with gusto!

6. I am ambivalent

about this tactic. Don't get me wrong, I respect you making your own decisions, but as a Bernie supporter myself, I am conflicted as to how I can support both PP and Bernie. Maybe match my donation to them to Bernie?

[JonLeibowitz]

11. As noted elsewhere, you can donate to their service arm without supporting the political arm.

[Bubzer]

16. You might want to take a look at post #14

It's a little disheartening.

[JonLeibowitz]

17. That is absurd. And yes, quite disheartening. I will not donate to PP again now. n/t

[Bubzer]

18. I plan to hold off until after elections. Then I'll donate again.

I still believe in what they do... just not who they've endorsed.

[leftcoastmountains]

7. I think that these organizations need to know there are

consequences for their actions. Back Hillary? Fine. I back Bernie so I couldn't possibly
back you. Bernie is a nice guy, so we (being Bernie also)#weareBernie have to go after them.
PP will survive this.

8. is sociology

taught anymore in schools in this country? Tactics by the privileged are so dismally shameful and borders on stupidity. These hob-nobbing establishment appointed so-called management are only in their rolls to collect and rarely if at all there to use their noggin. So out of touch. The sociopaths at the top days are coming to an end. The pendulum swings back once more.

9. Perfect! nt

13. GOod on ya

[tecelote]

15. Brilliant!

[liberalnarb]

19. I'm having a real hard time believing a pp

employee called you something so bad that you can't repeat it. I'm not happy about their endorsement either. But, really?

[eridani]

22. Probably not an employee. Just a phone bank hireling n/t

[liberalnarb]

23. Still a little hard to believe.

I guess I'll take your word for it.

[eridani]

24. I've phonebanked for Planned Parenthood before

They use volunteers when possible. When not, they pay professional phonebankers.
