Rand Paul May Use Filibuster to Try to De-Fund Planned Parenthood After Shock Video
Life News ^ | July 17, 2015 | STEVEN ERTELT

After a shocking new expose’ video that caught Planned Parenthood’s top doctor describing how the abortion business sells the body parts of aborted babies Senator Rand Paul says he plans to hold up or amend legislation in the Senate in order to get a vote on de-funding Planned Parenthood.

As LifeNews reported, new undercover footage shows Planned Parenthood Federation of America’s Senior Director of Medical Services, Dr. Deborah Nucatola, describing how Planned Parenthood sells the body parts of aborted unborn children and admitting she uses partial-birth abortions to supply intact body parts.

In the video, Nucatola is at a business lunch with investigators posing as buyers from a human biologics company. As head of PPFA’s Medical Services department, Nucatola has overseen medical practice at all Planned Parenthood locations since 2009. She also trains new Planned Parenthood abortion doctors and performs abortions herself at Planned Parenthood Los Angeles up to 24 weeks.

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

Paul says he may hold up a transportation funding bill in the U.S. Senate, according to a Politico report:

The Kentucky Republican and presidential candidate released multiple statements Friday promising to use “all legislative vehicles” to “defeat and defund Planned Parenthood” next week. The statements on his Senate and campaign websites don’t directly mention the pending highway and transit legislation, but it is the next big-ticket item on the Senate’s to-do list, with a procedural vote set for Tuesday.

“The recent revelation that this taxpayer-funded organization is selling body parts of the unborn further proves that this agency deserves our scorn not our tax dollars,” he said in a statement. “I plan to do whatever I can to stop them and will introduce an amendment to pending Senate legislation to immediately strip every dollar of Planned Parenthood funding.”

Such a plan could include a filibuster of a bill or an attempt to amend a de-funding provision into the legislation.

Other Republican presidential candidates have joined Paul in calling for Planned Parenthood de-funding, including Scott Walker and Ben Carson.

Paul’s pledge to stop Planned Parenthood funding comes on the same day the House of Representatives launched its investigation with a letter telling Nucatola that she needs to appear at a hearing to explain what Planned Parenthood is doing and answer questions.

Nucatola admits that Planned Parenthood charges per-specimen for baby body parts, uses illegal partial-birth abortion procedures in order to get salable parts, and is aware of their own liability for doing so and takes steps to cover it up.

The footage shockingly depicts the top medical official at the Planned Parenthood corporation munching on her salad while she discusses the sale of body parts of unborn children victimized by abortions. She brazenly describes how the heads of unborn babies killed in abortions command top dollar.

The buyers 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.”

Nucatola explains, “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.”

“And with the calvarium, in general, some people will actually try to change the presentation so that it’s not vertex,” she continues. “So if you do it starting from the breech presentation, there’s dilation that happens as the case goes on, and often, the last step, you can evacuate an intact calvarium at the end.”

In a video response to the heavy criticism, Planned Parenthood CEO Cecile Richards apologizes for the tone the Nucatola took but not for selling the body parts of aborted babies. Another shocking video exposing Planned Parenthood selling aborted babies is expected next week.

The video, which has been seen by more than two million people, reveals how the abortion giant sometimes alters their procedures to ensure high-quality “specimen” for organ harvesting.

SIGN THE PETITION! Congress Must Investigate Planned Parenthood for Selling Aborted Baby Parts

Dr. Nucatola said, “You’re just kind of cognizant of where you put your graspers, you try to intentionally go above and below the thorax, so that, you know, we’ve been very good at getting heart, lung, liver, because we know that, so I’m not gonna crush that part, I’m going to basically crush below, I’m gonna crush above, and I’m gonna see if I can get it all intact.”

The abortionist also explains that Planned Parenthood charges per-specimen for baby body parts and is aware of their own liability for doing so. When asked about a price, she said, “I would say it’s probably anywhere from $30 to $100, depending on the facility and what’s involved.” Unbelievably, she admits that some body parts, such as livers and heads, are much more popular and go for a higher price than other specimen.

David Daleiden, the founder of the group Center for Medical Progress told CBS News, “Planned Parenthood is still receiving $50, $75, sometimes $100 per specimen per fetal part. So all of that is just straight up profit that goes to their bottom line.”

It will be as effective as last time. It won’t do jack sh1t. Publicity.

Our side as a party needs to overthrow the GOP-e leadership and get balls. Let McCain and Graham switch to Democrats.

It won’t happen. Too afraid, don’t really have strong core beliefs in anything, or just too corrupted.

Since Planned Parenthood is not a line item in the budget its highly theatrical of Paul to make those remarks. What has to be done is prohibit any government “GRANTS” being given to PP. That is where they get their funding, not from a budget item. The grants are approved up the street at 1600 Pa. Ave.

Finally, Mr. Paul does something right. We’ll see if it moves the needle at all. I doubt it.

Fraud.

You're wrong. Rand may be a complete idiot on foreign policy, and as it pertains to faggotry and drug wastoids, but he is a pro-lifer. I give him props for fighting the baby killers and the surveillance state. He would be a good Sec Treas,
