Abortion giant Planned Parenthood is being forced to pay hundreds of thousands of dollars to Washington state following an audit. Sounds a bit like fraud to me. Can you imagine that people who kill babies for a living might lso be guilty of fraud?
Planned Parenthood of the Inland Northwest will pay the state $345,000 after settling a 2009 audit that uncovered the clinic used incorrect codes and provided insufficient documentation for some claims billed to Medicaid.
The original audit finding estimated the Spokane family-planning organization improperly billed Medicaid more than $629,000 for 333 patient procedures from March 2004 through February 2007…
Planned Parenthood appealed and a compromise was reached with the state “without any admission of incorrect billing, documentation of payment,” according the Department of Social and Health Services.
We’re all supposed to believe that that this was just a few hundred thousand honest mistakes? You know, Planned Parenthood would probably be able to keep their books straighter if they had some more taxpayer funding.

An example of the things they did:
Many cases where male condoms were billed at some nicely rounded up price instead of the actual acquisition price, as has been required since 2003. For example, in some cases they billed Medicaid $3.00 where the invoices clearly showed that PPS paid $0.84. In other cases, they billed $2.00 where the invoice showed the acquisition price was $0.56.
No investigation into charges before or after the audit, including if the practices are still being done.

He was a liar and murderer from the beginning.
You can hardly expect the virtue of honesty to prevail in those who slaughter the innocent.

In my BLUE state of New Jersey REPUBLICAN Chris Christie line item vetoed Planned Parenthood from the state budget.

And people expected more from a business that slaughters babies? People involved in abortion have no souls anymore. They'd pull the plugs on their moms and kids if they'd make money from it.

Then they spend your tax dollars promoting ignorance and hostility to science:
