5 Times the Pro-Life Cause Was Accidentally Endorsed
Planned Parenthood
Earlier this year, Planned Parenthood of Maryland posted a link on Twitter to a New York Times story about an experimental prenatal surgical procedure that treated a pre-born baby boy for spina bifida.
The article the Planned Parenthood chapter tweeted about described the in-utero procedure, with the pro-choice group tweet captioned with the phrase "After Surgery in the Womb, a Baby Kicks Up Hope."
However, the tweet was eventually deleted without comment, with some conservative outlets labeling the social media post an example of the nation's leading abortion provider giving "mixed signals."
"Planned Parenthood is, at best, sending some mixed messages with this tweet, given that one of their blogs featuring abortion stories cited a story of a woman deciding to have a late-term abortion at 22 weeks due to a diagnosis of spina bifida," read one Townhall.com piece.
