Getting politicians out of the clinic

What are all of these politicians doing in the clinic with this patient?

Isn't that a good question?

Planned Parenthood Advocates of Wisconsin has launched a campaign to get politicians out of the clinics -- and out of women's bedrooms.

A television spot in Madison, an online ad on the Journal Sentinel website, and some direct mail is all part of the initial push. There's probably a lot more to come.

The purpose is twofold: To alert people to the very real threat posed by the extremists who want to limit women's access to reproductive health services and even to birth control, and to remind them that Gov. Jim Doyle is the one who has been the last line of defense against some of the loony legislation passed by the Republican-dominated legislature.
