>>>Sorry, you're misinformed.<<<

No, Jim, our friend Sibyl is not misinformed.  She has the same information we have, specifically that PP does not push abortions, but merely makes them constitutionally (legal, safe, etc) available to those who feel the need of that service.  The difference between her and us is that she believes that Cecile Richards is a liar, and all those associated with her, PP'ly speaking, are also liars.  That's her choice.  She chooses to not believe her and them.  So be it.

As for affordable services potentially not otherwise available, I'd also like to add my story, told a couple time before, I'm sure.  And that story involves not expense, but fear.  When Anna and I got together in 1988, and since during the previous decade she had been sexually active and I'd received a blood transfusion during a surgery, we knew we needed to start out on an informed foot, as it were.  True, we could have gone elsewhere, but in our immaturity thankfully fueled at least in some part by reasonable fear of what could be, we instantly opted for Planned Parenthood, because we knew they'd be compassionate, and yes, affordable (we didn't really have jobs at that point).  They were, and they were.  They even understood our desire to hear the results together rather than the standard separately, because we came in as a unit, and wanted any potentially bad news as a unit.  Worked like a charm.  And no one slipped an abortion pamphlet into our back pocket as we were leav
 ing.
