And Then There Are Statistics.

Nobody can argue that Planned Parenthood isn't clever. A poll done by USA Today/Suffolk University asked respondents the question: 

“Do you think federal funding for Planned Parenthood should be eliminated – yes or no?” 

PP has been spinning about all the "other" wonderful services for women it provides - wink, wink - and the survey results came back with a "no." One wonders if there was any behind-the- scenes coordination. I'm sure not.

Robert Morris University then did another poll and re-framed the question thusly:

“Congressional Republicans favor shifting Planned Parenthood federal funds to community clinics that perform the same services, but do not perform abortions. Would you say you support or oppose this plan?"


Framed this way, 53% of respondents said they supported the Republican plan. Not surprisingly, the media is not reporting this poll.  

News media - yeah right! Rubio had it right at the last debate - the propaganda arm of the Democratic Party.
