Gates’ dad was a Planned Parenthood leader, which was/is very much into eugenics and getting rid of the undesirables, so it’d be the chickens coming home to roost in his case.

exactly. apparently (and very creepy) Bill Gates Sr. administers his son's 'philantropic' William H. Gates III Foundation (est.1994) which spends millions of dollars on an array of programs aimed at training international specialists in "reproductive health and family planning". Ted Turner and Warren Buffett (a Gates family friend) are other billionaires who've had a fond spot for population control. According to L. Zabin, a professor at the Johns Hopkins School of Public Health and who served with Gates Sr. on the national board of Planned Parenthood (there you go!), both Gates Sr. and Jr. have been "deeply involved in this issue for decades...." - https://web.archive.org/web/20070918043004/http://archive.salon.com/21st/feature/1998/01/cov_29feature2.html

Turner’s ex Jane Fonda, a fellow traveler, also plays to win, though sometimes she says the quiet part out loud. I guess this is just truth in comedy:

....ouch.....!!! it would be funny if it weren't so violent, what is it w/these people?! thank you for the link. I remember everyone trying to soften what she'd said as if it was "in jest" (of course!), but obviously that didn't work out well either....

Her face betrayed her. For such a beautiful Woman, she sure has a foul interior.

LOL

I've wondered about her face before, but interpreted its unattractiveness as a result from plastic surgery.
