Oh, look. When Harvey Weinstein isn’t supporting The Sisterhood by marching with them, he’s lining Planned Parenthood’s pockets:

More from NewsBusters:
At [Planned Parenthood’s 100th-anniversary gala this past May], Planned Parenthood awarded former Democratic presidential candidate Hillary Clinton the Champion of the Century Award. According to The Hollywood Reporter, Weinstein gave Clinton a standing ovation at the event where she insisted on the “morality” of “reproductive health care” (aka abortion) and stressed “trusting and valuing women.”
“Protecting access to the full range of reproductive health care. It is a health issue, of course, it is a core economic issue. Women in every corner of our country understand that intimately. And anyone who wants to lead should also understand that fundamentally, this is an issue of morality,” Clinton said. “I wish it were common ground, but I know for sure it is higher ground. And I believe, as you do, that trusting and valuing women is the right and moral position to take.”
According to Artnet editor Sarah Cascone, Weinstein also purchased artwork by British painter Cecily Brown at a charity auction at the gala for $100,000. (According to the art market site, Brown’s work is “characterized by overt sexual imagery and an Abstract Expressionist gestural style.”) Page Six, a gossip and entertainment outlet, made the same claim.

If you think about it, it makes perfect sense — in a totally horrible, perverse way:
Someone committing this much sexual assault likely spent quite a bit at Planned Parenthood so not surprising he was a supporter.

Considering how many women he assaulted, it was probably cheaper than paying for all of the abortions after the fact.

They probably helped him avoid a lot of child support payments over the years. It’s really the least he could do.

Ugh.
That doesn’t help his image

Pretty sure he’s beyond help at this point.
