July 17, 2015: Scientists say fetal tissue research rare, but potentially powerful

".......(Manjunath) Swamy said he pays about $600 for each specimen of fetal liver and thymus tissue from Advanced Bioscience Resources, a small for-profit company based in California. The company pays abortion clinics a "nominal fee" for fetal tissue, according to a document posted on the Center for Medical Progress website. The researcher has received nearly $500,000 from the federal government since 2011 for his work.

He said Friday he did not get the uproar over the video.

"I think people are misunderstanding or misguided in this emotional video," he said.

Caplan emphasized that fetal tissue procurement is legal, but needs to be handled carefully because of the sensitivities involved.

"You're talking about a small field, probably easily handled with a relative few clinics following the best procedures possible, or even by importing the tissue from overseas," Caplan said, adding, "It's another piece in the chess game of abortion."

This isn’t just a ‘scandal’. It is Mengalism, Genocide and profit on the scale of a Columbian Drug/Organ Theft Cartel.

To give even the ethical and moral implications of the “choice” part is bad enough, but to give any semblance of legitimacy for these post murder actions pretty much falls down on the side of the reasons God destroyed S&G, flooded the earth and all that.

But if they’re not doing anything wrong they have nothing to fear, right?

It does have that feeling,” Sen. Barbara Boxer (D-Calif.) said when asked about the comparison to ACORN. “When people come and secretly tape you, it’s a pretty low form of harassment in my opinion.

And yet, Barbara Boxer voted to approve extending the PATRIOT Act's roving wiretaps...

“It does have that feeling,” Sen. Barbara Boxer (D-Calif.) said when asked about the comparison to ACORN. “When people come and secretly tape you, it’s a pretty low form of harassment in my opinion.”

But when the Feds are using techniques like this to entrap citizens into doing crimes they would not have normally done, you embrace.

“Planned Parenthood appears to be grasping for a strategy in responding to the now-viral videos. The Center for Medical Progress promises more footage is on the way.

Last week, Planned Parenthood President Cecile Richards apologized for the “tone and statements” of the medical officer filmed in the first video while defending the larger work of fetal tissue donations.

Days later, Planned Parenthood shifted to offense, accusing its opponents of more than a decade of illegally recording the group and attempting to gain access to private facilities.

Since the first video surfaced, Planned Parenthood has released more than a dozen pages of attack points against the Center for Medical Progress and its head, David Daleiden, with the help of a public relations firm.”

So after seeing the videos and being stunned they got caught, they are on the offensive now to protect their “For Profit” body parts business.

“Congressional Democrats, while defending Planned Parenthood, have largely shied away from discussing the videos except when taking questions from reporters.

Credo launched a petition on Tuesday calling on Democrats to speak out more forcefully in Planned Parenthood’s defense.

Asked about the videos at a press conference, Senate Minority Leader Harry Reid (D-Nev.) turned to a prepared statement, saying he wanted to be “precise” in his language.

“These politically motivated videos raise questions, but nothing I’ve seen indicates that Planned Parenthood violated federal law,” Reid said.

He argued fetal tissue research has long been important, citing its role in the development of the polio vaccine, and said the videos “should not take away from the important work Planned Parenthood does.”

Abortion is one the core beliefs of the Democrat Party as is Gay Marriage, Homosexuality, NAMBLA, and teaching these “values” to the youth of America. So the Democrat will fight for this. The killing of out children and the sexual indoctrination of our children at a young age is the key goal of the Democrat Party. Let’s see how hard they fight to protect their “right” to kill, corrupt and sexually indoctrinate children.

They will probably just change their name like Acorn did and continue on. It will most likely end up as Your Personal Chop Shop for Humans.

” Sen. Barbara Boxer (D-Calif.) said when asked about the comparison to ACORN. “When people come and secretly tape you, it’s a pretty low form of harassment in my opinion.”

It’s also a pretty effective way of showing people’s true nature and motives.

If “The Hill” is covering this scandal, IT’S BAD for the Progressives.

I said a prayer every time I drove by that building along the highway on my visits to Houston. Seeing the sign lit up at night that can be seen form afar saddens the heart.

They will just rename themselves like ACORN did.

I suggest they be called Mengele Moms.

Planned Parenthood has already made itself comparable to the notorious Dr. Josef Mengele. That right there is something that organization might not want to have, to say the least.
