Planned Parenthood doesn't understand the meaning of the truth.  I wish they did because the idea of helping low income women get their PAP Smears and breast exams is such a good thing.  If only that is what they did.  However, their 2007 - 2008 Annual Report shows something completely different. 

In 2007 they did:

PAP tests - 968,682 = 9% of services
Breast exams/breast care - 851,232 = 8% of services
HIV testing - 368,473 = 3% of services
Prenatal clients - 10,914 = um...calculator doesn't do miniscule
Midlife clients - 12,783 = what did I say about miniscule
Infertility clients - 318 = yes, you read that right
Adoption referrals - 4,912 = remember, they are all about choice
Colonoscopy/LEEP/Cryotherapy procedures - 0.5% = I combined them together so I could get a stat for ya!

We hear it all the time.  That Planned Parenthood is more than just abortion.  We "know" that because abortion is just 3% of their services.  Well, using that logic they aren't about PAP tests, breast care, other cancer treatment/detection, prenatal, midlife, infertility, and adoption referrals either.  Aren't all those services that we hear is what they are all about?  Obviously, they aren't.

So what are they really all about?  Well, let's see: 

Reversible contraception - 2,463,201 = 23% of services
Emergency contraception - 1,423,650 = 13% of services
STI testing and treatment - 2,994,749 = 27% of services
Pregnancy test - 1,183,325 = 11% of services

Hmmm....so they are pretty much about contraception and STI testing.  Is anyone else understanding why they push so hard for "comprehensive" sex education?  If we start living non-free-love lifestyles they will go out of business as they are not equipped to deal with anything outside of promiscuity. 

So, how have they done through the years?  That is going to be the next article.  If is very interesting what has changed, and what hasn't.
