(CNN) – Planned Parenthood Federation of America will hold a gala honoring Secretary of State Hillary Clinton Friday in Houston, Texas.

The health care provider announced it will host the awards and dinner ceremony in the Lone Star State to pay tribute to those who have made significant contributions to the advancement of women's reproductive health and rights and promotion of family planning and prevention efforts.

Clinton is set to receive PPFA's highest honor, the Margaret Sanger award, for her advocacy of "women's health and rights throughout her public service career."

"Ugly Betty" actress America Ferrera will co-host the event along with PPFA President Cecile Richards.

By "more" I mean there are loads of nauseating comments from Freeperettes posting about the awful tragedy of killing unborn babies (cause that's all birth control is, ya know) when we should be killing spotted owls or some such.

Somehow I suspected having such an event in Houston was not all that good an idea. (Wonder if they invited W & Pickles ?)
