Senator: Planned Parenthood Says the Liver and Heart Has Value. No. The Unborn Baby Has Value

On July 16, Sen. James Lankford (R-Oklahoma) addressed the U.S. Senate regarding Planned Parenthood’s video showing their Medical Director, Deborah Nucatola, negotiating the sale of body parts of aborted babies it kills in its facilities.

In the video, which was seen by over two-million people, Nucatola admits that Planned Parenthood charges per-specimen for baby body parts, uses altered abortion procedures in order to get intact body parts, and is aware of their own liability for doing so and takes steps to cover it up.

Sen. Lankford said, “This comes back to the ultimate irony that we would literally tear one child apart in an abortion with the assumption that that would ultimately help some other child in the future. [They are] missing the significance of the child that is right there that could be helped by protecting their life. And then the doctor in this particular video gives the details of how … they would be careful to reach in and actually crush the head of the child to kill the child in the womb so that they could preserve the rest of the organs. Because the kidney has value, because the liver has value, because the lungs have value, because the muscles in the legs have value.”

SIGN THE PETITION! Congress Must De-Fund Planned Parenthood Immediately

He added, “I would tell you, that child has value. And that every single adult that can hear me right now was once twenty weeks in the womb. And we can look at each other and understand that the [only] difference between that child in the womb and any of us now is time.”

Later Sen. Lankford said that our response should be to ban late-abortion in America and defund Planned Parenthood. He concluded, “Let’s start with some basic things. How about a child at 20 weeks–that we know scientifically can feel pain—cannot have their limbs ripped apart in an abortion? Maybe we should ask the question again with Planned Parenthood, who we give half a billion dollars in [government] funding to. Maybe this is not a good idea.”

As LifeNews previously reported, in the undercover footage released by the Center for Medical Progress the actors posing as buyers for a biologics company ask Nucatola, “How much of a difference can that actually make, if you know kind of what’s expected, or what we need?”

“It makes a huge difference,” Nucatola replies. “I’d say a lot of people want liver. And for that reason, most providers will do this case under ultrasound guidance, so they’ll know where they’re putting their forceps. The kind of rate-limiting step of the procedure is calvarium. Calvarium—the head—is basically the biggest part.”

SIGN THE PETITION! Congress Must De-Fund Planned Parenthood Immediately

Nucatola concludes, “We’ve been very good at getting heart, lung, liver, because we know that, so I’m not gonna crush that part, I’m gonna basically crush below, I’m gonna crush above, and I’m gonna see if I can get it all intact.”

Those NAZI Doctors think a baby’s liver only has value with Fava Beans and Chianti.

Holy shit...it should be obvious to anyone following this story that marketing baby parts creates INCENTIVE for PP to encourage both pregnancy AND abortion. This is just effing SICK.

I wish these money-grubbing abortionists an excruciating, painful, prolonged death and an eternity in hell.

Is there a difference between a Fetal Organ and a Baby Organ?

The left says a Fetus isn’t a Human Being, but the parts they harvest are put into Human Beings?

How is that possible?

Nope, nor facebook, nor any of those other similar things. FR is as close as I get.

Feel free to spread it around if you want.

I can’t believe that Jesus Christ who loved little children so much will allow this incredibly evil outrage to continue very much longer. His Father’s judgment for especially vile sins such as legalized infanticide is coming soon to a nation near you, count on it.

I wish them broken hearts, tears, horrified minds, open regrets, a penitential life til their last dying breath, and salvation by Our Lord -— who knows them inside and out and still wills their eternal well-being.

Guess these little ones didn't make the cut!
Photobucket

Found in the trash behind an abortuary. Photobucket pulled this photo once before and I’m sure they will do so again.

The Unborn Baby Has Value

Does PP refer to baby body parts or fetus parts?
