and here's a cnn article, which discusses that fetal tissue research has gone on since the 30's..and that with advances in stem cell research, lab work, etc, fetal tissue use might be on its way out....but not because it hasn't proved useful. and it definitely has.

And of course none of the right wingers talk about PP's main mission, which is providing health care, regardless of ability to pay. A friend of mine on FB commented when she was laid off from her job, so no health care, and found a lump in her breast (barely a year after her mom died from breast cancer), it was PP that saw her right away and got her in for a mammogram. A friend of her, in the comment thread below her post, said he was raped at 15 and needed HIV testing and a bunch of other medical tests done, and his family was unable to afford anyplace other than Planned Parenthood. He said the PP staff treated him with dignity and provided him with all the services he needed.
This is what the right wingers want to take away from people. Specifically, poor people, because eff the poor, amirite?
