“Cecile Richards, president of the organization, said she has never heard of a child being born alive following a botched abortion.”

Probably because in her mind, that would still be just a fetus.

"....We Make sure of that"

Also, is she admitting that the Babies ARE Alive when they are killed?

“Cecile Richards, president of the organization, said she has never heard of a child being born alive following a botched abortion.”

Imagine if you will, working for an organization where the desired outcome is for the patient to die.

She’s a liar, just like her mother, Ann Richards, was. She was governor of TX when Bill Clinton and Janet Reno set fire to the Waco home of the Branch Davidians and burned 28 young children alive, shortly after Richards met with Hillary in Austin. Democrats don’t have a conscience.

Sounds like something that was stated at the end of WWII by the Germans who watched the Nazis exterminate the Jews.

did she say that they didn’t do abortions ‘after viability’? if so, then how can they harvest the organs if the ‘tissue’ isn’t viable?

One cannot hear if one doesn’t listen.

So, she only goes by what she hears and not what she should know for herself? That’s pretty damned weak.

Cecile, Heinrich Himmler called. He seemed very interesting and was wondering if you offer management consulting services.

Not weak. Definitely liberal.

Ignorance is the ultimate defense for a liberal. They can’t be guilty of something they can deny knowing about.

Liberalism is a mental disorder.

I picked up on that too. If the congressional questioner actually listened to her answer, that “... that they didn’t do abortions ‘after viability’?” should have been jumped on and she should have been asked to explain that statement. She should have been repeatedly asked that until she actually answered the question.

Did she mean that PP doesn’t perform abortions on babies who could be viable ie. late term abortions?
Either way she is a LIAR and wasn’t called out on it!!!!

Ineffective cross examination! Makes me crazy!
