can you imagine a public health school

that doesn't allow for the use of the word 'abortion'? this is 2008, right? this is america right? abstinence? it F**KING DOESN'T WORK. if proper COMPREHENSIVE sex education was taught (and practiced) there would be very little need for abortion indeed!
Health site blocked 'abortion' searches
Johns Hopkins Health Web Site Restores 'Abortion' As Allowable Search Term
A prominent public health school has restored the word "abortion" as an acceptable search term on a reproductive health Web site funded by a federal agency that restricts references to abortions. The move by the Johns Hopkins Bloomberg School of Public Health follows criticism from some health advocates and librarians that the restriction amounted to censorship.
The restriction on the POPLINE Web site — "population information online" — had been put in place after inquiries by the United States Agency for International Development, which funds the site, according to a statement from Dr. Michael J. Klag, the dean of the Bloomberg school.
USAID denies funding to non-governmental organizations that perform or actively promote abortion as a methods of family planning in other nations. The policy was started under President Ronald Reagan and was revived when President Bush took office in 2001.
"I could not disagree more strongly with this decision, and I have directed that the POPLINE administrators restore 'abortion' as a search term immediately," Klag said in a statement. "The Johns Hopkins Bloomberg School of Public Health is dedicated to the advancement and dissemination of knowledge and not its restriction."
USAID officials did not immediately respond to calls seeking comment Saturday............
