Actually it just means you can't back up the stuff you say.

Until they are audited, nobody will know if they are using taxpayer money for abortions.

Is there a requirement for them to be audited?

I don't know but you'd think if they're getting $542 million in taxpayer funds, that it would be required, especially in this instance since Federal funds are specifically forbidden from being used for abortions.

Or if they bought unicorns with it, or shot a monkey into space. But there's no evidence for that. You fail again.

You can't refute anything I've said. Either make a semi-intelligent comment or shut up.

[Calamari]

You didn't provide any evidence for what you said, as I pointed out. Even worse, they are regularly audited and none of your claims hold up.

Here's some evidence, which I'm sure you'll immediately disclaim!

One in Five Planned Parenthood Affiliates Face Financial Controversy, Report Says
By Fred Lucas
February 7, 2012
(CNSNews.com) – One in five Planned Parenthood affiliates nationwide have been cited for financial irregularities, according to a report by the Alliance Defense Fund, a religious liberty legal organization that based its findings on data from state and federal audits.

The report was sent to Rep. Cliff Stearns (R-Fla.), chairman of the House Energy and Commerce Subcommittee on Oversight and Investigations, which is investigating the use of federal funds going by Planned Parenthood Federation of America. Planned Parenthood, the nation’s largest abortion provider, has 79 affiliates across the country.

“In our view these audits demonstrate and our inside sources confirm that Planned Parenthood’s primary motivation is to take care of overbilling opportunities to maximize revenue in complex, well-funded federal and state programs that are understaffed and rely on the integrity of the provider for program compliance,” said Steven H. Aden, senior counsel for the Alliance Defense Fund, during a conference call with reporters Tuesday.

What about the 2010 GAO audit? That showed that PP spent $657 million in federal money between 2002-08 yet they also acknowledged receiving $2 billion in total federal subsidies. Where did the other $1.3 billion go?

That aside, why won't they show how much of their revenue is generated by abortion? They are performing 900 a day so they obviously have no qualms about the activity. Why are they afraid to be forthcoming concerning how much money it makes them?

[RIKMAN]

So- not only are they providing services they shouldn't to the Feds...
They are overbilling to boot!!!

What a country!

So even if they did get the audit you claimed they weren't getting, you keep grousing. There's really no satisfying you, is there.

I don't like abortion, would never advise for a woman to get one.

But it's not the government's job or decision

Do you have a link concering the missing $1.3 billion ?

Great, then stop giving them 1/2 billion in taxpayer funds. PP doesn't direct women to adoption. Less than 1% are counselled in this manner. They are an abortion provider, plain and simple.

Just more good ole boy BS.

Their own figures prove it.

If the abortions costed us $20,000 each it would still be a great deal for taxpayers.
