I have nothing against Planned Parenthood, but I do not understand how Madeline Albright fits with their mission.

Madeleine K. Albright is a Principal of The Albright Group LLC, a global strategy firm, and Chair and Principal of Albright Capital Management LLC, an investment advisory firm. In 1997, Dr. Albright was named the 64th Secretary of State of the United States and was the first female to hold that post, the highest ranking woman in the history of the U.S. government at the time. From 1993 to 1997, Dr. Albright served as the U.S. Permanent Representative to the United Nations and as a member of the President’s Cabinet. She is the first Michael and Virginia Mortara Endowed Distinguished Professor in the Practice of Diplomacy at the Georgetown University School of Foreign Service.

Dr. Albright is author of three New York Times best-sellers, with a new book to be released this Fall entitled READ MY PINS: Stories from a Diplomat's Jewel Box (Harper), in which Secretary Albright shares the compelling and often humorous stories behind her unique pin collection, and explains how pins became, for her, a signature diplomatic tool.
Planned Parenthood’s annual Public Affairs Dinner supports the operation of its three clinics in Austin, Texas.
