Marketing Hypocrisy

At least three abortion clinics in New York have advertised themselves as "Abortion Alternatives" in vying for The Unmitigated Gall Award of the Century. They're now being sued to make them stop it. Click here for details.

Ah, but you see, their hearts are pure so they can do anything they want and still be praised for their "courage", "convictions", and "daring."

The defense will be, "Well, they do offer many different abortion alternatives. There's the awake abortion, the abortion under anesthesia, the dismemberment abortion, the chemical abortion...."

Never mind that the heading in the Yellow Pages is specifically for places that do NOT offer abortion "services." Their duplicity will be justified by the prochoice movement, if they even deign to notice it.

Notice that this is _real_ fraud. Yet it was the Crisis Pregnancy Centers that got investigated a few years back by the New York AG for alleged "fraud" on far more shaky grounds even on the face of it: Did they really make it clear to people who phoned them that the don't offer abortions? And so on. Just sheer harassment. But this is outright fraud, an open and shut case, and evidently no one is doing anything except the pro-lifers who are suing.

Note too that this is not getting MSM coverage, yet the unsubstantiated claims about a CPC that pretended it was making an abortion appointment for a girl (if I'm remembering this story right) were spread all over the news.
