Planned Parenthood and the term "slippery slope" .

Recommended Posts

So how much taxpayer money has been wasted on all these investigations?

CMP should foot that bill. It was their lies that prompted all this waste of time and money.

Carly can help them out. She made a whole load of money mismanaging HP.

No, it is people's willingness to swallow anything purely based on political ideology that caused this waste of money.

People unwilling to listen to reason and logic based on heavily edited video that caused this waste of money.

To a certain degree, yes. The level of hatred towards PP, to the point that the idiots are willing to believe anything negative about them, is disturbing. The fact that there is a pretty large contingent of people that continue to believe, despite the proof that the videos are lies is more disturbing.

But using that logic, is a panic in a theater cause by someone yelling "FIRE!!!" the fault of the person doing the yelling? Or is it the fault of the people who panic and run without asking "Is there any smoke? Are there any flames? Is there really a fire?"?

In the case of the PP videos, the dupes, idiots and easily swayed hold a certain amount of blame, but it was CMP that (figuratively) yelled "FIRE!!!"

So much for the doctored video claims!


Quote

Parenthood, a forensic analysis has determined that a series of disturbing videos showing the group's employees discussing fetal tissue harvesting "are authentic and show no evidence of manipulation or editing."

The results of the analysis were conducted for the anti-abortion group Center for Medical Progress, and released as Planned Parenthood's president was set to testify on Capitol Hill.

Cecile Richards plans to defend her organization, and, according to prepared testimony, claim the videos were "doctored" in a way to "smear Planned Parenthood."

But the Alliance Defending Freedom engaged cybersecurity and forensic analysis company Coalfire Systems to examine the 10 "full-footage videos" put out by CMP.

According to their review, the videos were not manipulated. The report said any missing footage was of "non-pertinent" events like meals and bathroom breaks.

"The Coalfire forensic analysis removes any doubt that the full length undercover videos released by Center for Medical Progress are authentic and have not been manipulated," ADF Senior Counsel Casey Mattox said in a statement.

"Analysts scrutinized every second of video recorded during the investigation and released by CMP to date and found only bathroom breaks and other non-pertinent footage had been removed. Planned Parenthood can no longer hide behind a smokescreen of false accusations and should now answer for what appear to be the very real crimes revealed by the CMP investigation."

Take abortion out of the discussion here

Chaffetz lashed out at the organization for what he called "exorbitant" spending for salaries, travel, parties and lobbying.

"That's money that's not going to women's health care," said Chaffetz. He added, "It's a political organization."



this is what is being defended

Much like the public unions, this is a way for the Dem party to get tax dollars for their campaign machine

More than enough reason to defund PP and send those same dollars to other legitimate women's health organizations

The only thing that's been proven is that the supposed non-edited videos have, in fact, been edited. Clearly for political gain.



Gonna take this one back?

amazing how many people sucked up this talking point

Hell, even the CEO of PP was saying this until she testified and saw the report on the videos

Must have been very embarrassing for her

So it has nothing to do with this supposed illegal activity captured on video, but with their travel expenses?

Talk about moving the goal posts....



Nope

I'm going to have to venture a guess that you didn't actually see her on the hill.
:S:S:S
She even smacked down the bullshit numbers some politicians were using in a twisted attempt at where the money goes in the organization.
It's just all so much emotional hysterics and lies.

They won't do that any more than any alarmist, tobacco co rep, big oil rep, or anyone that has anything to do with large sums of money.
