The edited video
That’s all I needed to know. I guess they’re taking the James O’Keefe version of video “reporting”.

They can only win by lying. Says a lot about how “moral” these groups are. Time to arrest these people for perpetrating a fraud through the edited videos.

In all honesty, I want groups like this forced to take care of the medical costs for every child they force to be born from birth until the child is out of college…and all the rest of the expenses as well. Force them to be truly pro-life.

You know there are research labs owned by republicans who buy fetal cell tissues. Why aren’t republicans investigating their buddies? Fetal cell research has been known to save even republican’s lives.

I hate to say this, but when the Left, and the media, decided to stay silent on Romney’s investments in companies that dispose of abortions, because it was just far too sensitive of a subject, I knew it was a decision that would come back around.
And here we are, with the Right doctoring up videos, one presidential election cycle later.

The Center for Medical Progress, a group with ties to the anti-abortion movement
It’s a group created by the anti-choice movement.
FIFY.

Might we hope that some true libertarian hero will post full details on the people involved in perpetrating these “investigative” frauds? Doubtless there are many aspects of their lives best dragged into the light of day.

The sad thing is that the media will probably not identify the group as such. Or provide the context since a 30 second quote is all they are interested in.

about the racial characteristics of tissue donated to researchers studying sickle cell anemia, apparently seeking to create a misleading impression," the letter said.
This goes with something the anti-choice/forced-birth crowd have been trying to drum up for years now. That pro-choice groups and Planned Parenthood in particular are trying to carry out eugenic/genocide on blacks by getting blacks to have more abortions.
They spin PP’s founder Margaret Sanger’s advocacy of eugenics (which was an en vogue social-science movement back then) and her rather typical, though racist, attitudes of the time as a line of attack. They couple that with any inflated stat on the number of black abortions they get a hold of (or invent) to try and make out that if you are pro-choice you either are racist or support a racist cause.

Precisely. Take a spin through the Faux comment section and you’ll hear them screaming about Margaret Sanger every third post. It’s no different than their attempts to pin racism and segregation on Democrats by resorting to “reminding” everyone that it was the Dems in the south who supported slavery and segregation (which of course is a distortion in and of itself because it was simply everyone in the south, GOPer and Dem).

What we really need is an investigation into this group and whether they’ve been recording things in a manner that violates HIPPA. They apparently recorded while in rooms where sensitive patient information is available and able to be seen. Make no mistake: if they obtained names…be it 3 or 300 or 3,000…those names were forwarded to groups for shaming, threats and potential harrassment and violence.

No there there.

What if they were? HIPAA (not HIPPA) is not a criminal statute and its provisions apply to providers.
Yeah, THEN they feign worry about black people.

Why not? It works. Just ask ACORN.

Planned Parenthood needs to insist on the whole video being made public and not respond until it has been. This weaselly editing and bologna-slicing has to be treated like a non-issue unworthy of response until the full length has been released.

Yes, please. Fava beans and a nice Chianti, if you don’t mind.
