Losing weight? Finally clean that closet out? Finally do some travelling? Pssht! How about absorbing a comprehensive knowledge base on the U.S. Constitution? Thanks to Michael Badnarik you now have free video of his eight hour class on the U.S. Constitution. It is by far the most complete overview of the Constitution and every liberty-oriented, tea-party, libertarian, conservative, neo-con, liberal, socialist, communist activist should watch and absorb it in its entirety.

Again, this is an EIGHT HOUR session normally priced at over $100/ticket. Below is part 1 of 7. The rest is available at google video.

The world’s largest abortion provider hit a new low during the Christmas season – as was recently reported by Americans United for Life, Planned Parenthood was selling Christmas gift certificates for abortion as part of their end-of-year fundraising drive.* These appalling “gifts” are just another example of Planned Parenthood’s long history of shameful marketing practices and cheapening of human life.

Planned Parenthood has also resurrected their infamous “Choice on Earth” campaign – a disgusting mockery of the traditional Christmas spirit of Peace on Earth. Clearly, Planned Parenthood isn’t interested in peace. They are interested in only one thing: using your tax dollars to expand access to abortion services. Now, more than ever, it’s time to cut off their financial lifeline.

Here are the facts: Planned Parenthood receives over $350 million of your tax dollars each year – nearly one-third of their funding comes directly from taxpayers like you and me. Indeed, tax dollars are the lifeblood of the Planned Parenthood empire.

So the strategy is simple: starve the beast by cutting Planned Parenthood off at the source. With your help, Americans United for Life  can leverage our pro-life momentum in the new Congress to defund this behemoth. But the work ahead isn’t easy as we’ll need to raise at least $223,000 during the critical month of December. We are confident we can reach this goal with your immediate contribution.

So will you follow this link to help us defund Planned Parenthood with an immediate tax-deductible contribution of $50, $100, $250, or more? There is no limit to what you can give today and every dollar you contribute can be written-off as a charitable contribution for federal tax purposes.

Think about it: government subsidies for the abortion business. Gift certificates for abortions. Expanding taxpayer-funded abortion. That’s Planned Parenthood’s New Year’s agenda. But with your immediate, tax-deductible contribution, we can cut Planned Parenthood off the government gravy train forever.

*I found info for this only for 2008…. not sure if Texas was doing the gift certificates this year.
