Henry Decker at National Memo describes President Obama’s address to Planned Parenthood from earlier today:
Obama, who made history by becoming the first sitting U.S. president ever to address the group, offered a spirited defense of Planned Parenthoodโs mission. Noting that one in five American women has turned to Planned Parenthood for health care services ranging from contraception to cancer screenings, Obama said โwhen politicians try to turn Planned Parenthood into a punching bag, theyโre not just talking about you, but theyโre talking about the millions of women who they serve.โ
…
โThereโs nothing conservative about the government injecting itself into decisions best made between a woman and her doctorโ Obama noted, in a shot at Planned Parenthoodโs Republican critics.
Here’s video of the speech:
