"What happened is nothing short of a disgrace. Cecile Richards [President, Planned Parenthood] put this issue in the press. There was a coordinated effort to get sites like moveon.org and change.org involved. There was an orchestrated, premeditated attempt to put this issue in the press. Talk about betrayal by Planned Parenthood—against an organization that took up for it for years."

Seriously! Can you believe someone wrongfully under fire would defend themselves and try to get organizations and communities to support them by not being silent about what was being done to them? As opposed to just allowing themselves to get fucked over? THE NERVE AND DECEPTION!
I love how she uses “orchestrated” and “premeditated” when those are the exact same words could be used to describe Komen’s decision to defund Planned Parenthood.
