I just recieved this in an email from Planned Parenthood.
Eric Keroack is finally gone!
Quote:
Anti-birth control advocate Eric Keroack will no longer oversee Title X, the nation’s family planning program! The day he took office, Planned Parenthood launched a massive grassroots campaign against Keroack, rallying a nationwide groundswell of opposition to his appointment.
PPFA President Cecile Richards issued the following statement on the resignation:
“It’s a good day for women’s health. Keroack was unqualified to run the nation’s family planning program. The Bush administration must replace Keroack with a legitimate, mainstream public health expert who supports family planning and access to birth control. More than 17 million women in our country need access to affordable birth control. The nation’s family planning program should be run by a champion for women’s health and safety."

If you are on the PP mailing list, you should have recieved the same email. If you aren't, you can see the press release for yourself here.
Though I regret I never did get around to sending that letter I wrote to him. I doubt it would have have even been read anyway.
