They have always explicitly funded abortions, giving tens of millions of dollars directly to abortionists, and making very little effort to convincingly lie about it. Money is fungible. If you put money into one bank account, and I pay a bill with my other bank account, you have still funded my activity. Every ten-year-old knows this, which is why they are not only lying but also insulting us with such a poor lie.
By the way, Planned Parenthood does abortions "in house", so it's not like they have any budget line items for "abortion" anyway. Unless they're doing activity-based costing, their budget is for things like [abortion] advertising, [abortion] lobbying, [abortion] facilities, [abortion] equipment, [abortionists] salaries, etc. Melinda Gates could conceivably fund their entire budget while claiming shamelessly that the funds were "not for abortion" and "earmarked for other expenditures".

Good, then you shouldn't have too much trouble getting a reliable source to confirm that, right? Right?
