    The usual Distortion and Lies from religious right

    "When women enter CPCs, they are walking into a trap," said Ikeita Cantu Hinojosa, Planned Parenthood's assistant director of government relations. "They are expecting to receive neutral, comprehensive medical care, but they're greeted with manipulation, designed to coerce and scare them."

    The centers say states have no right to interfere in their efforts to encourage alternatives to abortion. Public money helps them carry out their goals.

    Millions of dollars from the Bush administration's "abstinence-only" effort goes to the centers. Many recipients have bought ultrasound equipment that lets expectant mothers see the earliest stages of fetal development.
