		<description>I&#039;ve been having a little back and forth with one of the more obtuse commenters at Cissy&#039;s Planned Parenthood thread. 

I guess I&#039;m in big trouble now, as my last comment is being held for moderation.

If anyone would like to go over and post it for me, or link back to this comment, here &#039;tis:

----------------------------------------------------


To LaMedusa #37:

&lt;blockquote&gt;You waste a lot of time with your life then, don&#039;t you?&lt;/blockquote&gt;

And yet it took you only a half hour to answer.

&lt;blockquote&gt; Not just over-billing, but illegal and fraudulent practices. This suit is being filed by someone who voiced concerns over these issues, and was fired because of it. The focused agenda is surrounding this organization which is suspect of making profits illegally.&lt;/blockquote&gt;


I suggest you look up a few of the facts &quot;surrounding&quot; the case.  For instance:

&lt;i&gt;State health officials now say, however, that they do not believe Planned Parenthood acted improperly because the organization was given contradictory guidance on billing from the state.

In fact, after Planned Parenthood complained that a lower reimbursement rate could imperil its survival, the state passed a law in 2004 allowing it to continue billing as it had been all along. &lt;/i&gt;

&lt;a&gt;LA Times&lt;/a&gt;

If PP is indeed found to have been engaging in practices prohibited under the False Claims Act, it will be fined accordingly.  It wouldn&#039;t be the first nonprofit to be fined, nor the last.  That has absolutely nothing to do with the argument you and your pals have been making in post after post: that a nonprofit organization cannot make a profit and still be a nonprofit.</description>

		<description>Heh!
This has got to be the most creative ever excuse for wingnut poor spelling: (From another poster on Cheezwhizbang):

&lt;i&gt;I&#039;ve busted a few people who rip off my stuff here at Wizbang -- it&#039;s remarkable how well a &quot;Google trap&quot; can work. I just make sure to make up certain phrases or words or deliberately misspell a couple of words every now and then, then do a Google and a Technorati search on them after a couple of days. It works remarkably well.&lt;/i&gt;

Don&#039;t know if Cassy has ever shot small animals, but her writing indicates she definitely has &quot;supersized&quot; her prions.</description>

		<description>&lt;i&gt;I’d think reporting over $1 billion in profits would be a pretty big red flag.&lt;/i&gt;
When she talks about &quot;big red flags&quot;, for some reason I mentally translate the image into &quot;loud warning &lt;strike&gt;hooters&lt;/strike&gt; klaxons&quot;.</description>

		<description>Democommie, 

According to many Christians, Jesus is fucking unemployed, has nothing better to do and way too much time on his hands.   I personally having him building a compost pile in my backyard.    Sure It&#039;s not much right now, but eventually he&#039;ll how up for work.  I&#039;m fucking important!  LOL!  Dead people and deities are like that.  Calling their own hours and shit when their believers need them to do menial shit they do not want to do.</description>

Anne Laurie:

What is it with these arrogant KKKristian fucks saying, &quot;God is my co-pilot&quot;?  Jehovah would kick their lame asses to the curb for such an insult (if he didn&#039;t just eviscerate them with his laservision and catapult them into the lake of burning feces).

That Cassy gal is hot like a sunburn.  But I&#039;d want to delouse her after she&#039;d been hangin&#039; out with all them good ol&#039; boys.</description>

		<description>&lt;i&gt;Christians persecuted by the Romans used to draw the Jesus fish in the dirt with a stick or a finger as a way to tip off fellow Christians that they weren&#039;t alone.&lt;/i&gt;

Which is the opposite of what secular rationalists are doing with the Darwin fish, in a country where they are the minority.</description>

Hey!  I&#039;m hoping to go to Instanbul this year.  My boss&#039; mother, whom I love and adore, invited me to stay with her in Turkey on vacation.   I have to brush up on my poker, she&#039;s damn good at cards and all her friends and neighbors play.   I foresee an international card ass kicking in my future.   Good thing American money is like monopoly money.  lol   Toys &#039;R Us here I come.</description>

		<description>It was a dark night, and the sky was filled with stars. I was filled with the manly warmth that comes from drinking with the natives and receiving their shy confidences. Just as I was starting to explain that I wasn&#039;t that kind of guy, a hooded figure caught my eye. I left my new friends and sidled closer to the man of mystery. 

&quot;I noticed you noticing me,&quot; I whispered into the scary recesses of his hood. &quot;Then I noticed you noticing me noticing you. So I thouught if you noticed me, I should tell you I noticed....&quot;

&quot;Silence,&quot; the Man of Mystery hissed. Let&#039;s call him MOM. &quot;I have a secret message to pass to the West. We of the Strange and Exotic East want you to know that we sympathize with your desire to sit in your Barcalounger and watch us die horribly for your personal amusement and profit. Go with God, young conservative. And remember me!&quot;

He thrust a small statuette in my hands. I slipped it into my shirt.

&quot;Thanks, MOM,&quot; I replied. &quot;I owe your everything. I&#039;ll never forget!&quot; 

And a moment later he was gone. I peered at the statuette, a tiny lawn jockey painted inky black. I sighed, a manly tear tracing its way down  my dewey cheek. He was one of us after all.

The end.</description>

		<description>Good fun with the repressive, legged fish of Darwinian automotive fascism, but it was the lead-in to it that grabbed my attention:
&lt;blockquote&gt;During a 1991 visit to Istanbul, a buddy and I found ourselves in a small restaurant drinking, dancing and singing with a bunch of middle-class Turkish businessmen, mostly shop owners. It was a hilariously joyful evening, even though they spoke nearly no English and we spoke considerably less Turkish.&lt;/blockquote&gt;
Please, Jonah, tell us all about your magical, memorable night in Istanbul.</description>

<blockquote><p>During a 1991 visit to Istanbul, a buddy and I found ourselves in a small restaurant drinking, dancing and singing with a bunch of middle-class Turkish businessmen, mostly shop owners. It was a hilariously joyful evening, even though they spoke nearly no English and we spoke considerably less Turkish.</p></blockquote>
<p>Please, Jonah, tell us all about your magical, memorable night in Istanbul.</p>

		<description>&lt;i&gt;a driver who also believes in stream-of-unconsciousness multiple-lane shifts, left turn on red, parallel parking as an extreme sport, tailgating 18-wheelers, disciplining the kids while talking on the cell at 60 miles an hour, and the theory that cars don’t work right unless the turn signal is blinking at all times.&lt;/i&gt;

Such drivers are merely doing their noble, altruistic best to prepare you heathens for the challenging road conditions that will occur immediately after the Rapture.</description>

		<description>&lt;blockquote&gt;As Christopher Caldwell once observed in the Weekly Standard, Darwin fish flout the agreed-on etiquette of identity politics. &quot;Namely: It&#039;s acceptable to assert identity and abhorrent to attack it. A plaque with &#039;Shalom&#039; written inside a Star of David would hardly attract notice; a plaque with &#039;Usury&#039; written inside the same symbol would be an outrage.&quot;&lt;/blockquote&gt;

So &quot;usury&quot; is to Judaism what &quot;Darwin&quot; or &#039;evolve&quot; is to Christianity? Wouldn&#039;t that mean that people insult Christians by calling them Darwinist or Evolutionist?</description>
