Remember When Hillary Clinton Got Planned Parenthood s Sanger Award?
Do you remember when Hillary Clinton received Planned Parenthood s Margaret Sanger award with pride, even calling Margaret Sanger someone she admired enormously? The reasoning she gave then was the the same so many gave afterward; just because Margaret Sanger believed in and was an avid supporter of eugenics did not mean that the organization she began then shared her same beliefs today.
Could the beliefs of the founder of Planned Parenthood be excused as exaggerated, baseless, or simply a common idea of her time? http://www.lifenews.com/2013/02/08/remember-when-hillary-clinton-got-planned-parenthoods-sanger-award/
