No matter what they say, it's all about sex.

Take, for instance, Monica Miller of Citizens for a Pro-Life Society, who was one of the major organizers for the past weekend’s nationwide protests of Planned Parenthood. The official story Republicans are pushing is that the attacks on Planned Parenthood are about “life,” but Miller broke with the party line and let the truth slip out on a Catholic radio program. “I say even if Planned Parenthood didn’t perform one single abortion, just the mere fact that its sexual ethic is corrupted means right there, should be the reason right there, that they should not receive any federal money,” Miller argued. “The kind of sexual ethic that Planned Parenthood promotes is sex for recreation, sex for mere pleasure.” 

It’s clear why Republican leadership might not want people to hear that the anti-choice movement, at its core, is about trying to end the practice of sex for pleasure.

  DREAM INTERPRETATION

Everything's either
concave or 'vex,
so whatever you dream
will be something with sex.

  PLANNING

Sex is a thing that's
disgusting or grand...
depends on the parenthood:
shocking, or planned?

  SWINGER, SANGER?

Frowning Ms. Miller, a
hostile pro-lifer:
what should you get from sex?
naught but a cipher!

passion, affection and love
or raw anger?
I'll cast my lot with
ms. Margaret Sanger!

skip the eugenics, Meg.)

When people obsess in their heads
About other's actions in beds
When they're all having fun
Without a ring or a gun
Makes them want to blame the Feds
