HRC to get abortion award

Clinton to appear at Planned Parenthood event by Ben Smith, Politico

Doing a rare domestic political event, and continuing the Obama administration’s forceful, if understated alliance with abortion-rights groups, Hillary Clinton will receive an award from Planned Parenthood Friday night in Houston, the group says.

“The 2009 Planned Parenthood Federation of America (PPFA) Margaret Sanger Award, the organization’s highest honor, will be presented to U.S. Secretary of State Hillary Rodham Clinton, who has been a champion of women’s health and rights throughout her public service career,” according to the release.
