If You Give a Mouse a Cookie...

This is a really bad idea. Is Google going to allow ads from Planned Parenthood? The right-wing will love that. The ads fail on a very basic level. The rule states that the ads have to be "factual". That alone disqualifies anything the anti-choice crowd could muster since they don't have facts on their side. It's all going to be pictures of bloody fetuses and comparisons of abortion doctors with Nazis.

Plus, if you cave on this one they're just going to come up with a demand even more outrageous.
