Christian fundamentalists don't have control of Planned Parenthood or

You have brought out a very interesting fact. If such takeover of WS or PP
or ACLU is possible, all it needs is some fat cat finance a movement to buy
them out.

So all this talk about hostile takeover is just for political consumption.

Any one wanting to respond?
