Dr. Mike Adams really got my book. His column on Intellectual Morons focuses on my chapter discussing Planned Parenthood Founder Margaret Sanger and the movement she should have aborted. It is a must read.

My research on Sanger breaks some new ground. While inspecting her papers in the Library of Congress, I stumbled upon her very detailed plan promoting concentration camps that would have housed more than ten million Americans. None of the ten or so biographies of Sanger that I examined even mention this. Yet, they had access to the same material that I had access to. If the most significant pro-life activist promoted concentration camps, do you suppose these same biographers would have sat on the information? Mike Adams discusses these and other aspects of Sanger's life that have been airbrushed from the official histories. If you want to get a sense of the important information contained in Intellectual Morons, read Dr. Adams' column. Then read my book.

What goes more to the heart of the matter is that abortion and slavery were in fact contemporary issues. The Physician's Crusade that started the statutory outlawing of abortion in the states existed from 1840-1860ish. It is hard to believe that the issue of slavery did not overlap. And when people suggest that abortion was outlawed out of religious ignorance, they are flat out wrong. It was medical doctors, in difference to the religious opinion of the day, that defined and settled the abortion issue in law.

Dan, I'll have to read your book just for this chapter, sounds like great stuff!

Margaret Sanger was a evil biotch and it is so sad that history books turn her into a hero for women's rights.

I'll be interested to read the book.

I don't know she was EVIL exactly...Though, she was certainly caught up in the junk science of her day.

I think, if anything, that Dan is doing a great service to the world by showing just how dangerous such "scientific" nonsense can be.

Maybe evil is a bit harsh. If her crazyness didn't amount to much then she was just a nut-case but her life's work has played a role in the distruction of morality in our society.

Is Planned parenthood evil or stupid?
A little from column A a little from column B.

When did you become so concerned with public morality pdiddy? I am impressed, I thought you only cared about cheesecake and big butts.

Brian, Pdiddy's obviously NOT a one issue voter.
