Planned Parenthood's Sarah Stoesz starts to sweat

For the last twenty-four hours, national media have been picking up on the reality that South Dakota will again vote on this issue of abortion. This morning the New York Times gave space to yesterdays news that enough signatures were indeed gathered to put this on the ballot in November.  These news reports always contain a comment or two from the opposing sides. Ms. Sarah Stoesz, the President of Planned Parenthood  Minnesota, North Dakota and South Dakota thinks it a bad thing that, once again, South Dakotan's have to face this issue. The New York Times reports:

Ms. Stoesz said she did not believe that South Dakotans wanted to tackle this question again. Debates over the matter, she said, had overwhelmed life in the state — at kitchen tables, churches, soccer games, everywhere — in the summer of 2006.

Here's what Ms. Stoesz is really afraid of - it is their worst nightmare that what Planned Parenthood does everyday will be brought into a greater light. The respectability facade over Planned Parenthood is lifting daily. Like Bull Connor of the civil rights South, it's only a matter of time and these people will be found on the wrong side of history- and shamed.

They would love to continue on forever under the national radar - targeting black and poor babies, making a billion dollars a year as a "non-profit", 330 million coming from US taxpayers, covering up sex crimes against minors, leaving wounded women and dead babies in their wake, etc., etc.  They would love for South Dakotans to continue to believe there is actually such a thing as a woman-doctor relationship in their "clinics." They would love to keep sanitized the reality that they violently dismember living human beings without anethesia.  I'm sure they don't want people in South Dakota to sit around their dinner tables and talk at soccer games about the fact that pre-born children feel pain at eight weeks. They don't want pregnant women to see a 4D sonogram image because they know that 90% of abortion-bound women change their minds when they see the baby.

It'll be a hot summer for Ms. Stoesz, she's already sweating over the exposure she knows is coming her way.  In the category section of this blog you can read up on how "voter fatigue" is a non-issue in this state.  The only people talking about it are those who have everything to hide.
