Palin / Planned Parenthood

A friend sent me this. I find it amusing - some will not:

Dear Friends:

We may have thought we wanted a woman on a national
political ticket, but the joke has really been on us, hasn't it? Are you
as sick in your stomach as I am at the thought of Sarah Palin as Vice President of
The United States?

Since Palin gave her speech accepting the Republican nomination for
the Vice Presidency, Barack Obama's campaign has raised over $10 million
dolars. Some of you may already be supporting the Obama campaign
Financially others of you may still be recovering from the primaries. None of you,
however, can be happy with Palin's selection, especially on her positions
on women's issues. So, if you feel you can't support the Obama campaign
financially, may I suggest the
following fiendishly brilliant alternative? And best of all, do both -
Donate to Planned
Parenthood AND to the Obama campaign.

Make a donation to Planned Parenthood. In Sarah Palin's name. A Planned
Parenthood donation is tax deductible, while a political donation isn't.

And here's the good part: when you make a donation to PP in her name,
they'll send her a card telling her that the donation has been made in her
honor.

Here's the link to the Planned Parenthood website:
http://www.plannedparenthood.org/
go to donate, then honorary gifts.

You'll need to fill in the address to let PP know where to send the "in
Sarah Palin's honor" card. I suggest you use the address for the McCain
campaign headquarters:
McCain for President
1235 S. Clark Street
1st Floor
Arlington , VA 22202
