WH Totally Supports What Planned Parenthood Is Doing, Notes Its 'High Ethical Standard'
Townhall.com ^ | August 1, 2015 | Leah Barkoukis

While the recent videos exposing Planned Parenthood’s barbaric practice of selling and negotiating the price of aborted babies’ body parts—and the organs of those born alive—has convinced some Democrats that enough is enough when it comes to taxpayer funding for the abortion giant, others are remaining steadfast in their support for the group. Unfortunately, the White House is among the loyal, it seems.

Speaking to reporters on Thursday, White House Press Secretary maintained that the undercover videos were highly edited and distorted. And when asked by a reporter where he is receiving his information, Earnest’s replied Planned Parenthood.

“Based on the public comments of Planned Parenthood, who has indicated that the views that are represented in the video are entirely inconsistent with that organization’s policies and with the high ethical standard that they live up to,” he said.

The reporter pushed back: “So would it be unfair to say that you’re simply taking your talking points from Planned Parenthood on these videos?”

No, it wouldn’t.

Unfortunately, this type of blind support for the morally bankrupt organization means that even if Congress did pass legislation that would strip Planned Parenthood of its funding, President Obama would veto it.

"On balance, the president would not be supportive of any sort of congressional act like that," Earnest said. "Apparently, Republicans are just getting started in that effort and that is an effort we oppose."

Gaffer, this is what Utopians want. PP is more than US leftist politics, it is an international agenda for the long term “health” of the earth and the world. Taken right out of Margaret Sanger’s manifesto to rid the world of blacks in her day, the impoverished, and now taking it globally, you see the end, and you certainly see the means.

Barbary is usually kept as discreet and clandestine as possible, even globally, but it is a real agenda. Especially with Hillary Clinton, hidden in her “Women and Girls” push around the world, where ever she spoke.

Yes...it probably is something on that order.

There have been rumblings of more CMP videos that contain horrendous findings - things like whole live babies being delivered intact and allowed to die on a table. The point being a viable, dead “whole fresh baby” being the unicorn of this “research business” that seeks to do all sorts of things: Regeneration of debilitated tissue, rejuvenation of old skin (eye cream, face cream, etc.) and who knows what else?

These people are working too hard, fighting vehemently and have enlisted the highest official in our land to help hide whatever it is. To me, that speaks volumes.

If a "high ethical standard" can be applied to an organization that kills innocent babies born alive to sell their parts, then selling the organs of community organizers and leftist traitors born alive should make you a saint.

I understand about the power and money part, but there is something more heinous here. I’m pretty much certain of that.

STROLL DOWN MEMORY LANE "The logical import of then-state Sen Obama’s vote against BAIPA [Born-Alive Infant Protection Act] is that he disagrees, w/ the premise of the bill....that once a baby has been targeted for abortion it thereafter has no inherent right to the food, comfort, and medical care provided to other babies born alive..... .....during Illinois state senate deliberations on BAIPA, Obama stated that one of his objections was that the bill was “designed to burden the original decision of the woman and the physician to induce labor and perform an abortion.” According to Obama once the decision to abort has been made, a child is doomed even if born alive.

===================================================

2004 BACKSTORY In February 2004, then-US Senate candidate Barack Obama's wife, Michelle, sent a fund-raising letter with the "alarming news" that "right-wing politicians" had passed a law stopping doctors from performing p/b abortions (stabbing half-born babies in the neck with scissors, suctioning out their brains and crushing their skulls).

Michelle Obama considers partial-birth abortion "a legitimate medical procedure," and asked supporters for $150 to attend a luncheon for her candidate husband, b/c he would fight against "cynical ploys" to stop p/b sbortions.

(NOTE: nurses at an Illinois hospital in 1999 discovered babies were being aborted alive and placed on shelves in soiled utility rooms to die unattended.)

BACKGROUND Legislation was presented on the federal level and in various states called the Born Alive Infants Protection Act. It stated all live-born babies were guaranteed the same constitutional right to equal protection, whether or not they were wanted.

BAIPA sailed through the U.S. Senate by unanimous vote. Even Sens. Clinton, Kennedy and Kerry agreed a mother's right to "choose" stopped at her baby's delivery. The bill also passed overwhelmingly in the US House.

NARAL went neutral on it. Abortion enthusiasts publicly agreed that fighting BAIPA would appear extreme. President Bush signed BAIPA into law in 2002.

But in Obama's Illinois, the state version of BAIPA repeatedly failed, thanks in large part to then-state Sen. Barack Obama. It only passed in 2005, after Obama left. Obama articulately asserted that legislation protecting live aborted babies might infringe on women's rights or abortionists' rights (The very same judicial reasoning used to approve dismemberment of aborted babies).

In 2003, as chairman of the next state Senate committee to which BAIPA was sent, Obama stopped it from even getting a hearing, shelving it to die much like babies were still being shelved to die in Illinois hospitals and abortion chambers.

(NOTE As chair of that same committee, state Sen Obama once abruptly ended a hearing early, right before the parents of six children killed as a result of Illinois' drivers licenses-for-bribes scandal, were to testify in favor of Choose Life

==============================================

OBAMA BLESSES PLANNED PARENTHOOD (dismembering savagery ok'ed using Obama's reasoning)

Obama recently stated that the Abortion industry in America is blessed by God... “As long as we’ve got to fight to make sure women have access to quality, affordable health care, and as long as we’ve got to fight to protect a woman’s right to make her own choices about her own health, I want you to know that you’ve also got a president who’s going to be right there with you, fighting every step of the way,” said Obama. “Thank you, Planned Parenthood. God bless you.”

And the White House supports the great work of ISIS in its humanitarian efforts to rid the middle east of those pesky Christians.

> I am really, really puzzled about this. Why the rabid insistence of the value of PP and whatever that actually means? Why the loyalty? Is it financial? Is there that much money in it that flows to liberal politicians?

I think its part of the Agenda 21 sustained development mentality. Promotion of baby killing and the homofication of the world = population reduction. The ends justifies the means as long as your head is on the cutting block not theirs.

Conclusion: our federal budgeting process is immoral and repugnant. We need Congress to pass a law REVOKING spending on these evil acts and the president can veto it? That is just wrong. The next budget cycle (just around the corner) should cut out every dime for that heinous organization.

With progressives its the agenda and political power first, ethics and morality a distant second.

And you know where this leads.

PP bundles abortion with other medical services (many that are beneficial) in order to peddle their ghoulish baby killing business.
I would think that someone would have to be a psychopath, and or completely delusional, to be able to sell aborted baby parts.
Take abortions out of PP and see what happens.
Let the abortion business stand on its own.

Guilt over their own abortions, or the ones they've insisted on in their sluts.

(The old joke: Q. Sen. Kennedy, what do you feel about the latest abortion bill? A. Well, I guess I'll just have to pay it.)

Or, knee jerk belief in their own propaganda: only religious nuts oppose abortion, but we know better because science. Because stem cells. And War on Women.

Their love of abortion has nothing to do with their health, and everything to do with getting rid of a baby they don’t want.

I am certainly against abortion but it’s a damn shame Obama’s trashy mother didn’t do something to prevent pregnancy. Her son Hussein has done more to promote abortion than any president in our nation’s history. He’s also forcing the destruction of the USA.

This nation and the world would be so much better off if Stanley Ann Dunham hadn’t been allowed to breed. She was an immoral goat humper that spawn the sorriest bastard to ever enter the White House.
