Planned Parenthood Attacked

Some ultra right-wing group is attackig Planned Parenthood with calls asking if they can donate money to abort black babies. (Here's the video). Ok, here's the problem. Planned Parenthood does allow you to earmark your donation to a specific minority group, but the calls are clearly racist because the callers want to make sure there are less black babies. That's where things turn ugly. Some dumbass in Idaho laughed and said, "understandable" and then shit hit the fan.

I have no problem taking money from your racist self. My righteous indignation and your ignorance and racism will be put on a shelf until I get your check. This kind of swallowing of pride and taking the crap you have to take is part of every day life for everybody that has to earn a dollar.

If I let my outrage get in the way of taking a dollar, I'd never have anything!

Can I earmark money for just republican abortions? Can I make them retroactive?
