Is It Any Surprise That Abortion-Funding Warren Buffett Funded This "Study"?

The Susan Thompson Buffett Foundation, Warren Buffet's foundation, renamed after his deceased wife, funded this "research:"

The finding that the incidence rate of psychiatric contact was similar before and after a first-trimester abortion does not support the hypothesis that there is an increased risk of mental disorders after a first-trimester induced abortion. (Funded by the Susan Thompson Buffett Foundation and the Danish Medical Research Council.)

All the liberal pundits jumped on this when it came out in 2011, saying this should end the argument, but it's worth pointing out the bias of at least one of the funders of this study. Someone may have written about this fact then; we just can't seem to find any links.

You see, if their "results" hadn't supported what they wanted to find, it's entirely likely we'd never have heard of the results at all. It's in the same category as "The Guttmacher Institute" being just the research arm of Planned Parenthood.

This blog has no small experience with exposing biased backers of research who make sure that unwanted findings (those not supporting their biases) never see the light of day.

Wikipedia isn't the best source, and isn't as updated as it should be but it states that "Of the $17.6 million that the Buffett Foundation donated in the fiscal year ended June 30, 1999, nearly $3.8 million went to Planned Parenthood, among its top contributors. It also involves itself directly at the clinic level." Meaning, Planned Parenthood abortion clinics.

This New York Times article and NPR tell even more about how much the Buffets have funded abortion and even helped create abortion pills/emergency contraception. As NPR reported in 2006, "You mean you didn't know Warren Buffett's foundation has been funding abortion rights organizations? Well, that's just the way the Buffets wanted it."

Think about that. White, old-man, 1%-er Warren Buffet, helping fund the spreading of abortion clinics to mostly city areas where disproportionately-high percentages of minorities get abortions. Let him "plan your family" for you.

(Don't take our word for that fact. Take the words of these folks, and these.)

I doubt many think about that when they pay GEICO for their car insurance, or indulge in a Dairy Queen Blizzard Treat, or pull on their Fruit of the Looms, or watch The Pampered Chef, or slap on a coat of Benjamin Moore paint in their house. Are any pennies of our payments ending up going from our hand, to Buffet's, to Planned Parenthood? I think we know the answer.

It isn't the first time a scientific journal like the New England Journal Of Medicine has published something that could be questioned as biased.

Just consider the source, when you read "the news" on any research, published or not. Who's funding it? What's their agenda?

It matters.

The writings expressed herein are protected expression by virtue of the First Amendment of the United States of America and by the Universal Declaration of Human Rights, in particular Articles 18 and 19, signed by the U.S.A. in 1948:
1) The First Amendment: "Congress shall make no law respecting an establishment of religion, or prohibiting the free exercise thereof; or abridging the freedom of speech, or of the press; or the right of the people peaceably to assemble, and to petition the government for a redress of grievances."
"The Free Exercise Clause reserves the right of American citizens to accept any religious belief and engage in religious rituals. The wording in the free-exercise clauses of state constitutions that religious “[o]pinion, expression of opinion, and practice were all expressly protected” by the Free Exercise Clause.[1] The clause protects not just religious beliefs but actions made on behalf of those beliefs. More importantly, the wording of state constitutions suggest that “free exercise envisions religiously compelled exemptions from at least some generally applicable laws.”[2] The Free Exercise Clause not only protects religious belief and expression; it also seems to allow for violation of laws, as long as that violation is made for religious reasons."
2) Article 18 of the United Nations Universal Declaration of Human Rights, signed by the U.S.A. in 1948, states: "Everyone has the right to freedom of thought, conscience and religion; this right includes freedom to change his religion or belief, and freedom, either alone or in community with others and in public or private, to manifest his religion or belief in teaching, practice, worship and observance."
3) Article 19 of the United Nations Universal Declaration of Human Rights: "Everyone has the right to freedom of opinion and expression; this right includes freedom to hold opinions without interference and to seek, receive and impart information and ideas through any media and regardless of frontiers."
