Obama DOJ to Investigateā€¦the Center for Medical Progress
National Catholic Register ^ | 7/27/15 | Matthew Archbold

Posted on 07/28/2015 4:45:51 PM PDT by BlatherNaut

Videos by the Center for Medical Progress clearly shows top officials from Planned Parenthood discussing selling human body parts for profit, performing partial birth abortions, and discussing the destruction of the unborn in the most reprehensible and inhumane ways. So, of course, the Obama administration has decided to investigate...the Center for Medical Progress. Politico reports: While congressional committees investigate Planned Parenthood’s practices, the Justice Department agreed to look into whether the group that released the sting videos obtained the footage legally. In response to a request by House Democrats, Attorney General Loretta Lynch said Wednesday afternoon that Justice would “review all of the information and determine what the appropriate steps moving forward would be.” Planned Parenthood has staunchly defended its practices and claims that the Center for Medical Progress illegally obtained its footage, then excessively edited it to misrepresent what the organization does. Center Executive Director David Daleiden isn't phased. "They will attack me and my organization all day long, but that does not change the facts about what our investigation has uncovered and what the American people now know — that Planned Parenthood is engaged in an enterprise-wide operation that traffics and sells baby body parts," he said in a statement. With the Center for Medical Progress promising more videos, there's nothing Planned Parenthood wants more than to silence this group. They can not do it themselves so they are likely seeking to leverage all their considerable political power to silence the group before any more damage is done. In 2014, National Review reported that Planned Parenthood planned to spend over $16 million in the midterm elections alone. That kind of money is clearly more than enough to buy you a DOJ willing to do your bidding. This could get ugly.

Obama is an eater of the dead.

In fact, he is the Prince of the Eaters of the Dead.

Surely we have a few Freeper Lawyers who can weigh in on the legal issues involved here. I believe there is some chance that the videos were not obtained in a legal manner, i.e. without the consent of the “victim”.

I hope that is not the case but it could be.

Come on guys/gals. We know you work hard but this is important. Speak up.

From what I have seen from various talking head lawyers they were not legal if filmed in California.

But I frankly do not care.

So...if someone had gotten videos of germans being forced into the ovens at Aushwitz the lawyers preventing their exposure would have “WON?”

Thanks for the input. At least one of videos was shot in California. Not good news.

The reason I care is that if the video(s) are not legal they may well be pulled from YouTube and elsewhere and the MSM will do their best to divert our attention to those “Dirty Video Criminals”

Another strong silent statement from Francis on abortion

With the recent videos documenting that Planned Parenthood not only murders human beings but then sells the body parts of those same murdered children to drug companies for research, one would think that there would be some sort of outcry from the papacy.  Maybe in normal times but with Francis nothing is heard.  Considering his upcoming visit to the United States of America it would be an opportune time lay down the law.  Recall in a September 2013 interview, Francis said, 'It is not necessary' for Catholic Church to focus on gay marriage, abortion and contraceptives, and many in the church are obsessed with 'small-minded rules'.  Then remember during his August 2014 trip to South Korea where the media told their viewership that Francis sent a strong silent anti-abortion message as he stopped to pray at an abortion memorial.  The problem is this was all spin.  If pausing for less than 10 seconds at a memorial is a strong statement then what is a weak statement?  Fast forward to May 2015 when the Vatican announced that 'missionaries of mercy' would be sent throughout the world by Francis during his Jubilee Year of Mercy to yes, absolve people from the sin of abortion.  Instead of condemning abortion and explaining how this evil is intrinsically connected to the evils of birth control, immodest dress, sodomy, and usury, we have Francis saying the greatest evils of our time are 'poverty, corruption and human trafficking'.


Will Francis' "missionaries of mercy" absolve 
the people in this video of their sins?

Well, all I have to say to that if human beings turn their eyes from this, if they hide behind oh the filming wasn’t legal, but these atrocities shown are fine, then human beings are a failed species.

There is no justification for this.

I mean it would be no different than hidden cameras being brought into Nazi death camps, and then any revelations from those cameras being ignored because the Nazis didn’t know they were being filmed.

If we don’t end this, I mean as a species if we don’t say no, this is not what we do, then we are true monsters. I am really troubled by this.

Maybe in normal times but with Francis nothing is heard.

Wouldn't want to offend Jeffrey Sachs, Margaret Archer, Ban Ki Moon, Hans Schellnhuber, Moonbeam Brown, Barack Obama, Marty Walsh, Bill De Blasio, etc. etc. etc. /sarc
