SICK! New Planned Parenthood Video Features Advisor Saying “EVERYTHING WE PROVIDE IS FRESH”

September 15, 2015 by Aleister

This may be one of the worst Planned Parenthood videos so far. An official laughs and sips her drink as she talks about eyes, hearts, spinal cords and gonads. She also says everything they provide is “fresh” as if she was talking about pieces of meat.

Watch:

Hot Air has a partial transcript:

“We’ve just been working with people who want particular tissues, like, you know, they want cardiac, or they want eyes, or they want neural,” says Dr. Westhoff to a prospective fetal organ buyer. “Certainly, everything we provide–oh, gonads! Oh my God, gonads. Everything we provide is fresh.” Westhoff continues, “Obviously, we would have the potential for a huge P.R. issue in doing this,” before offering to introduce the buyers to “national office abortion people” from Planned Parenthood.

If you made this up, no one would believe you. It’s like something out of a horror movie.

House’s Planned Parenthood fight is problem for GOP senators

 

By Alexander Bolton - 10/07/15 06:00 AM EDT

A politically charged budget package moving in the House this week is creating a headache for Senate Republicans.

The package, which under budget reconciliation rules cannot be filibustered, will block money for Planned Parenthood and gut ObamaCare.

ADVERTISEMENT

The problem: It’s unclear whether Senate Republicans can gather the 51 votes needed to approve it.

Three Senate Republicans are on record as opposing an end to federal funding for Planned Parenthood.

Sen. Mark Kirk (Ill.), one of the most vulnerable Republicans in next year’s elections, twice voted against procedural motions on legislation to block the
healthcare group’s funding.

Sen. Susan Collins (Maine) has spoken on the Senate floor against defunding the group, though she did back a procedural motion in August that could have led to an up-or-down vote on defunding. She said she only did so on assurances from leadership that it would lead to another measure to maintain funding for Planned Parenthood’s other healthcare services.

Sen. Lisa Murkowski (Alaska) has also backed funding for Planned Parenthood, though she made the same vote in August as Collins based on the same argument.

Murkowski, Collins and Sen. Kelly Ayotte (N.H.) in September all voted against proceeding to a short-term government funding measure that would have cut off Planned
Parenthood, further muddying the issue.

Republicans can only afford to lose three votes in the Senate if Democrats are unified against the budget package, giving them little room for error.

Ayotte, Collins, Kirk and Murkowski declined to say Tuesday whether they would vote for the House package.

“We’re not making news today,” said Kirk.

“I have not supported the defunding [of Planned Parenthood]. I’ve supported the repeal of ObamaCare. I’ve got to look at it as a whole,” said Murkowski, who faces reelection next year but is favored to win.

“I’m not going to prejudge what’s sent over by the House until I’ve seen all the components,” said Collins.

“I have to look at it,” said Ayotte, who on Monday learned Democrats had recruited Gov. Maggie Hassan to challenge her next year. The Ayotte-Hassan race is expected to be one of the most hotly contested Senate races in the cycle.

Democrats say Ayotte, Kirk and other endangered incumbents will pay a political price for supporting the House package, pointing to polls showing that only a minority of voters want to repeal ObamaCare.

“Their base is demanding bills to defend Planned Parenthood and the Affordable Care Act. It’s a terrible position to put purple-state Republicans in. It’s a very easy example of the base pulling the party to the right at the expense of their 2016ers,” said a Democratic leadership aide.

Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell (R-Ky.) signaled Tuesday that he supports Speaker John Boehner’s (R-Ohio) strategy for aiming at both ObamaCare and Planned Parenthood in one package.

“We’ll take up reconciliation when it comes over from the House. And it’s my hope and expectation that it would have in it as much of ObamaCare as we can repeal. And I hope that it will also include provisions to de-fund Planned Parenthood,” he told reporters.

Democrats are expected to oppose the package unanimously. Sen. Joe Manchin (D-W.Va.) has twice voted in recent months to defund Planned Parenthood, but he said he would vote against similar language if combined with an ObamaCare repeal.

“That’s bullshit. Pure, unadulterated bullshit,” he said.

The House Budget Committee will mark up its package Friday morning. It’s reviewing proposals to repeal the Prevention and Public Health Fund, repeal the individual and employer mandate and repeal the so-called Cadillac tax and the medical
device tax.

A Kaiser Health Tracking Poll from late August showed that more Americans have a favorable than unfavorable view of the law and 50 percent either want Congress to expand the law or continue implementing it as it is.

GOP strategists say centrists will incur relatively less pain by voting for the House-originated reconciliation package.

“The politics of defunding Planned Parenthood and repealing ObamaCare is not great for Republican senators in swing states, but it’s hard to see how a vote for a such a bill in the budget process would be a real game changer, as it’s a long time between now and November 2016,” said John Ullyot, a GOP strategist and former Senate aide.

Other Republicans facing tough races indicated they would vote for the House
package.

“Absolutely,” said Sen. Ron Johnson (R-Wis.), who faces former Sen. Russ Feingold (D) in a rematch of his 2010 victory. “I think it clarifies the positions of the parties.”

They need to stop talking about it and take action. Where is their morality and ethics? Where is the compassion for unborn life?

House creates panel to investigate Planned Parenthood

 

Planned Parenthood

By Sarah Ferris - 10/07/15 05:43 PM EDT

The House voted Wednesday to create a special committee to investigate Planned Parenthood and the handling of aborted fetal tissue, all but ensuring an already-fierce partisan battle will continue into 2016.

In a nearly party-line vote, lawmakers voted 242 to 184 to establish a 13-member committee with broad power to investigate wrongdoing by Planned Parenthood amid allegations that it has tried to profit from the sale of aborted tissue.

Two Democrats voted in favor and one Republican opposed the measure.

The four-page bill does not mention Planned Parenthood by name. Instead, it charges the committee to investigate “fetal tissue procurement,” “federal funding and support for abortion providers” and “born-alive” abortions, generally.

 

But Republicans were clear that the committee’s work is intended to deepen three existing House committee probes into Planned Parenthood, which began in early August. The committees have held three hearings as part of their investigations, which has prompted Planned Parenthood to turn over at least 20,000 documents, according to Democrats.

"Our investigation has raised many more questions than we've been able to find answers," said Rep. Marsha Blackburn (R-Tenn.), who is expected to lead the panel. "We need to have a national conversation about these practices. This is a discussion we cannot shy away from.”

The select committee is the strongest step yet taken by House Republicans who have been riled by a series of undercover videos accusing Planned Parenthood of trafficking fetal parts. Despite investigations in Congress and a dozen states, the group has not faced any criminal charges – prompting widespread criticism from Democrats that the panel is politically driven.  

"Here we go again. Planned Parenthood is the new Benghazi," Rep. Lois Frankel (D-Fla.), said from the floor Wednesday. Her counterpart from Florida, Rep. Kathy Castor (D-Fla.), added that the move “borders on an abuse of power.”

The committee’s investigation does not yet have a timeline, but it is likely to last for months, stretching the controversy even further into the 2016 presidential race.

The formation of the committee had been floated last week by retiring Speaker John Boehner (R-Ohio) as he sought to calm tensions over Planned Parenthood that nearly forced a government shutdown.

The select committee’s leader will have subpoena power, which Blackburn told the Rules Committee on Tuesday would be used in consultation with the new House Speaker. The new Speaker would also have control over the committee’s budget and schedule, she said.

Six of the committee’s 13 slots are reserved for Democrats, though it’s unclear if they will participate. Republicans had previously alloted five slots, but pitched an amendment during the debate Wednesday to add the extra seat.

Democrats have forcefully condemned the committee’s formation as a “witch hunt” intended to take down Planned Parenthood – comparing it to the House’s committee on Benghazi. That committee has burst into public view this week after House Majority Leader Kevin McCarthy (R-Calif), who is also running for House Speaker, suggested it was responsible for Hillary Clinton’s lagging poll numbers. 

McCarthy has since walked back his comments, insisting that the committee was not intended for political purposes.  But Democrats have seized on his remarks as fresh evidence that the House should not create a new committee investigating Planned Parenthood.

“Let’s not run a McCarthy-like hearing on Planned Parenthood and women’s health,” Rep. Chris Van Hollen (D-Md.), who is running for Senate, said on the floor.

“Who knows, maybe the select committee on Planned Parenthood can shed some light on Benghazi,” Rep. Adam Schiff (D-Calif.) quipped during a briefing Wednesday, which included both the Pro-Choice Caucus and Democratic members of the Benghazi panel.

The Benghazi committee has cost at least $4.5 million, according to Democratic critics — figures that they believe will be on par with a Planned Parenthood investigation.

“I prefer to call it a taxpayer-funded campaign committee,” Rep. Jan Schakowsky (D-Ill.), a member of the Pro-Choice Caucus, said Wednesday.
